“If only I had straightened out that bratty young marquis earlier…!”
Could my luck be any worse? First, my father’s business went under and my engagement was broken off. Then I had to become a private tutor just to support my family. And now… I’m caught up in a rebellion and about to be executed?!
Why should I have to die because of that spoiled, clueless marquis? Dragged into treason I didn’t even commit?! If only I’d had the chance to fix that arrogant brat’s rotten manners and twisted personality back then… If only I’d had the chance!
When I opened my tightly shut eyes, I found myself back in the past at age twenty-two. I sought out the young marquis, who had lost his parents and been placed in the care of a duke, and applied to be his tutor.
Little by little, through effort and patience, the boy began to open his heart to me. But now… it feels like someone else’s heart is opening too—His Grace, the Duke himself?!
