Dieline’s hell began when she fell in love with Hugel Ambrosia. She was destined to become the wife of the next Duke of Ambrosia. When she was young, her grandfather had pledged her arranged marriage to Ambrosia.

‘I’m not shameless enough to covet my younger brother’s woman.’

Ethan Ambrosia, who became the Duke, said this and was considerate to use separate rooms even after marrying her. Dieline, who was married to the older brother of the man she loved, gnawed at herself and slowly went mad. Even though the Duke did not touch her, Dieline’s stomach was rounded.

“If Hugel, Hugel had become the Duke, I wouldn’t have gone this far. Ethan Ambrosia, that cursed man has taken my Hugel’s……”

“Dieline, please.”

Sarah sighed, wrapping her arms around Dieline, who was biting her nails and muttering anxiously. This was the beginning of all the tragedies Sarah inadvertently caused. The tragic love and misfortune of Dieline, which did not exist in the ‘future’ that Park Hyeyeon saw, and was only described in ‘Flower of Darkness’ written by Park Hyeyeon.

‘I want a love like fate, Sarah! A fierce love that cannot be bound by families, duties, children, or anything else! I want to elope in the name of love. A love that blooms in the midst of misfortune. Alas, what could be more romantic than a tragic love?’

‘Really? If you look at the novels I’m writing these days, your thoughts will change. There’s a person who has a very tragic love.’

‘Really? What’s the name of that lucky person?’

‘I haven’t decided yet.’

‘Then you can use my name. I’d love to have that kind of love, at least in your novel. Just make sure to show me your finished work later, okay?’

‘Umm…… Okay, I got it.’

Sarah, who had no sense of naming, honored Dieline’s wishes and gave her name to the male lead’s mother character. She also used the names of people she saw in the future. Had she known it would cause such a tragedy, she would never have done it. Sarah regretted that day over and over again.

“That’s it. That’s the end of it. If it’s known that I’m dead, my father won’t be able to do anything about it. But Sarah, my child…… can’t you at least take care of my child?”

Just like Dieline in ‘Flower of Darkness’, with the same name but different life, family, and age, Sarah’s precious friend, Dieline, fell in love with the younger brother, Hugel, not the Duke of Ambrosia, and had a child she shouldn’t have.

“Dieline……”

Sarah looked at Dieline’s round and mountain-like belly. According to ‘Flower of Darkness’, Dieline’s child will be Claude Ambrosia, the male protagonist in the novel.

“Sarah……, please. You’re the only one who can stop the curse from being passed on to my child. So please……, I’m begging you. Without you, I can’t leave in peace.”

Sarah thought as she looked at Dieline, who desperately looked at her. If she couldn’t change the novel and couldn’t go back anyway, she’d rather restore it, even if it meant destroying this world.

“Not right now, but if you want…… Then okay.  I will protect your child.”

“Thank you, thank you so much.”

Sarah hugged Dieline’s sad sobbing shoulders, held her hand, and thought. She would change the fate of this world that moved according to the ‘Flower of Darkness’ written by Park Hyeyeon. Claude would have the strongest ally. She would be the nanny who might be the only way to free the Ducal House of Ambrosia from a curse that had been passed down through generations.

From now on, ‘Flower of Darkness’ would lay a thorny path in the future of Dieline’s child.

‘I will crush that path very thoroughly.’

Sarah firmly vowed to become Claude Ambrosia’s nanny.

And so Sarah looked forward to her first meeting with Claude. It took her 6 years to complete all the preparations for Claude’s future. As she had endured the urge of wanting to see the child all this time, she was very happy when she finally met him.

“Sigh……, you’re cuter than I thought.”

Sarah covered her mouth and let out a sigh of exclamation. A red blush appeared on her fair, white cheeks.

“……”

Claude’s body shuddered at the sight. He alternately looked at Sarah’s face and her gentle hand in front of him.

6 years old.

Throughout his short life, the child could do whatever he wanted. But now it didn’t go his way at all. The child was just embarrassed by this unnatural situation. So, without realizing it, he reached out his small hand and grabbed Sarah’s outstretched hand.

“Good, Young Master Claude.”

Sarah’s lips curled with satisfaction. It felt like everything had gone awry from the beginning, but she was overwhelmed with emotion at the sight of the precious child.

“Not a bad first meeting, us.”

Not bad!

At Sarah’s words, Claude suddenly came to his senses. He was startled and shook his hand away. Then he averted his confused eyes and started looking for someone to help.

“May, May!!”

“Yes, yes! Young Master Claude!”

“Tell that person to go away……! Okay? Tell her to go!”

Claude grabbed May’s skirt and whined. May, who was shuddering at the flying door, looked at Sarah in cold sweat.

‘The Countess’ position of Countess Millen was not obtained by coercion. The Emperor knew that Sarah Millen was a magician!’

May finally understood the meaning of the words of her master, Duke Ethan Ambrosia.

[Respect Sarah Millen wholeheartedly and never go against her.]

Ethan Ambrosia would be held strictly liable for any consequences of failing to follow the above warnings. May finally realized that her childish attitude had offended someone. Again, she was both a strong and weak person, depending on the situation. Right now, the strong was Sarah Millen and the weak was herself. In such a case, the best way was to keep her head down.

‘Ah ah…… I’m so scared.’

May squeezed her eyes shut, remembering the look on Sarah’s face as she glanced over. The picturesque smile on that beautiful face was terrifying. May decided to try to convince Claude, who was more docile.

“Young, Young Master Claude? Don’t do that, come here. I’ll give you a hug.”

May held out her arms toward Claude, unable to hide her trembling voice. However, Claude shook his head violently and cried.

“Don’t wanna, don’t wanna!”

Words did not work for the already stubborn child. A single, stagnant tear fell from the corner of his reddened eye.

“Oh, my. What’s wrong with our dear Young Master Claude? Please greet her properly and move on. Okay? If you don’t do that, His Grace might get really angry!”

“Why? Why is my father angry at me because of her?”

However, May’s words only made the Young Lord feel worse. The puffy cheeks quivered, and soon a growl began to leak back from deep in his throat.

Sarah squeezed her eyes shut for a moment, feeling the cane she was holding strain, then opened them. The appearance of the child clenching his cute fists, biting his lips, and tears falling sadly is so……

‘So cute.’

It was so cute. To May and the servants, Claude’s stubbornness might have seemed like a little devil. But to Sarah, who had fallen in love with Claude the first time she saw him, even this appearance was charming.

“Fufu.”

Sarah’s face beamed with happiness as she watched the child.

“……”

“……”

And the others looked at her with blank faces.
