Chapter
IWUMCH Chapter 15
Chapter 15 “Would you like to try this, Mr. Louis?” “Me…?” “Yes. I’m not very good at telling flavors apart.” Somewhat dazed, Louis smelled the tea leaves and tasted a bit of the fruit cheese, biscuits, and dried figs. Each had a deep, rich flavor that made his heart feel light, as if he might float away. “How is it? Do you like them?” “They’re all wonderful. I don’t even know how to choose…” “I’m glad to hear that. Then, please wrap this tea and these…-

IWUMCH Chapter 14
Chapter 14 “Here, have this too.” “Oh, no, it’s fine…” “Take it. I’m in a great mood since tomorrow’s payday.” “Th-thank you.” Louis’s lips twitched upward in a small, delighted smile. “If you like chocolate that much, why don’t you visit the grocery store in town? They sell pretty chocolates there.” “The grocery store in town…?” “Yeah. You’ll be getting your pay soon, so go on your day off. You worked through your last break, didn’t you?…-

IWUMCH Chapter 13
Chapter 13 “More importantly, Marsha, can you lend me the Lady Emmanuelle series? I’m short on money these days, so I can’t afford to buy books.” “Ugh… fine. I barely managed to buy it myself.” “I’m next after her. I’ll lend you one of mine once I get a new book. Someday… when I actually have the money…” “Why is it that every time we get paid, there’s immediately something we want to buy? At this rate, none of us will even have the fare to go home for…-

IWUMCH Chapter 12
Chapter 12 Those were the words his mother used to tell him every single day, almost like a mantra. Because of those words, even while working under Burke as a shoeshine boy, Louis had been able to think of himself as someone valuable. He lifted his head slightly. “When I was thirteen… until my mother passed away, I lived with her in a small cabin in the southern forest. My mother loved to read, and she was the one who taught me how to read and write.” Worried that his words might sound…-

IWUMCH Chapter 11
Chapter 11 The moment Louis stepped into the study, full of determination, he took a deep breath. The air inside was filled with a faint, alluring scent—a mix of the Count’s lingering pheromones and the smell of old books. But it wasn’t just the scent that captured his heart. Elliot’s desk was covered with fascinating objects. Though he had promised himself to focus on his task, Louis couldn’t help standing in front of it, his eyes gleaming in wonder. ‘Wow! What are all…-

IWUMCH Chapter 10
Chapter 10 “I think rabbits are a bit pitiful too. Their fur gets so fluffy this time of year, they’re really cute. What happens to the rabbits caught during the hunt? Are they released? Or… do people eat them?” “Well, it depends on the situation.” “Of course, I understand catching animals for food when it’s necessary. But to take pleasure in it… I mean, what I’m trying to say is…” As Louis rambled on with pointless talk, Maximilian didn’t interrupt him or frown—he…-

IWUMCH Chapter 9
Chapter 9 Louis tried to lift himself up, but for some reason, he couldn’t escape from Elliot’s grasp. His body had gone completely weak, yet his mind was racing with frantic thoughts. ‘Why is he doing this? Is he angry with me? Maybe he’s trying to scold me. Or could he be planning to throw me out? No, that can’t be it… unless… did he notice my scent that night?’ Louis thought back to the night the Count had returned his cross. The moment he remembered that he had accidentally…-

Chapter
IWUMCH Chapter 8
Chapter 8 Perhaps it had only felt that way to Louis—perhaps the Count hadn’t pulled him at all, and it was merely an illusion. It might have simply been that Louis himself felt drawn to him, his body and heart, perhaps even his fate, swept up by a powerful, inescapable force. Louis squeezed his eyes shut. Just before he completely lost control, Mrs. Thompson burst out through the front door. “Oh dear! My lord! Please, take this medicine first.” The Count’s hand, which had been…-

IWUMCH Chapter 7
Chapter 7 “Really…?” “Why? You don’t believe me?” “I thought you must have been skilled from the very beginning. You suit the role of a butler so perfectly…” “Not at all. I was never the sort of man meant to become a butler. I’m an immigrant, and look—there’s even this scar on my face.” Dmitri pointed casually to the large scar beside his nose. “The only reason I’ve managed to do my job properly is all thanks to the Count. He’s a truly good man. He…-

IWUMCH Chapter 6
Chapter 6 After that, fortunately, the day passed without any problems. It wasn’t that Louis had suddenly become more focused, but rather because the count hadn’t shown himself at all except during mealtimes. ‘Has he been in the study all this time? He must really like reading. But even so, wouldn’t it be lonely to spend the whole day alone with just books?’ While eating his pudding, Louis found himself absentmindedly thinking about the count. At that moment, Marsha, sitting beside him,…-
