Silvie left Elysian Pastoral Street No. 58, wanting to say something to her boss, but after thinking it over, she decided to keep the secret.
Charles did not want people to know they had once been engaged, and neither did she.
A girl who had been engaged before faced discrimination in society, an unavoidable issue.
She marveled to herself, contemplating, "How did Charles, that prodigal, suddenly change? It seems he really has something with Miss Annie. Could it be... love is uplifting? Annoyingly, that scoundrel still managed to find someone as wonderful as Annie."
"If I hadn't broken off the engagement…"
Silvie shivered. Her impression of Charles was too deeply ingrained and too negative, even though he had changed quite a bit, she still couldn't accept it.
Silvie had once witnessed her former fiancé being chased down the street by a sword-wielding husband, running naked as fast as he could.
That disgusting image, Silvie Martin felt she still needed to wash her eyes.
