Ethan was wondering why the duke, who loved Liana so badly, wanted to give both of them a fair chance to win the title of duchess. However, after seeing how Helena ran her boutique himself, Ethan knew the duke's doubt. Helena was so talented despite her attitude.
Ethan tried to remember the storyline. He was one year before the announcement of the winner. According to the original story, the duke gave both of the granddaughters the fair chance to win. However, the heroine won, despite her lack of experience. But why?
Ethan couldn't bring his memories back in an instant. He decided to make a coffee to help his brain work. However, he found something strange with the cloth filter.
"This is so bitter," Ethan murmured, blaming the cloth filter for the bad taste.
He took a brass cup and punched holes in the bottom. He then placed a sheet of blotting paper from a book on top of the cup and filled it with coffee. The result was a clear, flavorful cup of coffee without any sediment.
