    ''Rosalyn, the daughter of a European merchant.''

    For a cameo, it was quite a luxurious name.

    Of course, the identity of that merchant wasn’t particularly defined.

    After all, the original scene was simply about Michiko and Yuina meeting at an auction and clashing over their pride.

    ‘To obtain the necklace on auction.’

    It was an item Michiko’s mother had once worn.

    A necklace that had gone missing from the mansion long ago.

    It didn’t look like an old Japanese building but rather something straight out of Europe.

    “Miss, this is my first time at an auction. Should I just sit back and watch?”

    “Don’t embarrass yourself. Just stay quiet. I’ll handle it if there’s something I want.”

    “T-Then I’ll stay quiet.”

    Michiko frowned slightly at Yeonseonye’s awkward nod.

    Her expression was equal parts exasperated and fond.

    Despite being endlessly materialistic, Yeonseonye could seem surprisingly innocent at times like this.

    “But Miss, what exactly are we here to buy? You must have come here for a reason.”

    “That’s...”

    Michiko hesitated briefly before locking eyes with Yeonseonye.

    She had already noticed Yeonseonye’s suspicious behavior lately.

    No—she was certain it was related to Yuina.
