I bet Sarah does't even like the Marquises, everyone just kept pushing her to him because of the symbol of wealth and power he projects...which happens often in noble families and even to day with Korean Chaebols heirs. Not once did she say she liked him.....people are just talking about his power/social standing and equating it with happiness...
I love how the last panel positions her such that the bow makes her look like she has fox ears. Very subtle and very clever bit of visual characterization!
The prince still hasnt figured out aria's name isnt actually mielle lmaooo. Also, she definitely messed up with sarah, she accidentally probably made her refuse the marquis with all her "suportive" talk
Oh wow, its quite different huh. Lane's been smiling all the time while in the novel he
Lane, who hadn’t even looked at Aria, turned his head. Unlike when he was dealing with Mielle, he had a hard, cold demeanor. It had been a long time since she had seen a stare like that.
I bet you all that this is the raven-haired, blue-eyed hooded guy from before who is the "Master". And the gifts were suppose to be for Aria, but Rain mistakenly gave them to Mielle instead since the "Master" only gave the description, but not the name. Remember how he only called her by her house's name? I bet this is the reality behind these gifts. I bet it big time.
