Luna thought she wouldn't have much to do, but she was very busy with her work.

She needed to meet guests, and on top of that, she needed to deal with the stone mountains that she had bought.

The butler was attending the party. This may be due to the fact that the hostess did not live for a long time, so the servants, who were bored with work, took care of all the worries before Luna gave instructions.

Thanks to this, Luna was able to focus on her work without distracting anyone.

"Luna. Forgive me for arriving in the morning. We selected companies based on the conditions you specified. I have highlighted a couple of companies that I liked the most."

Luna received documents from Royer, who came to her room in the morning. These were companies that excavated stone mountains.

The conditions of Luna were for the companies to be medium-sized, have a lot of experience and have a good reputation.

Luna, who looked through Royer's documents, asked him for another favor.

Then could you contact them? And please send this letter to Thane, my father's secretary."

"Good. I'll do it right now."

Royer was now almost Luna's secretary.

He took care of everything Luna told him.

While Royer grabbed the papers and letters, Luna got up from the table to go to breakfast.

"I heard that Emma has been working in the kitchen since today."

"Yes. Can't wait to eat breakfast from Emma. I haven't eaten her food in days."

"Me too. Emma is the best chef ever."

Talking about it, they went down the stairs, and met Laura. She also went to the dining room.

Joining them, the three of them headed to the dining room. But when they entered it, they saw an alarmed Emma.

"Emma, ​​is something wrong?"

"A? No! Everything will be ready soon! Wait please!"

'Why did she react like that? Is it because this is her first day in the new kitchen?'

Luna thought about it and sat down at the table to wait for food, and soon after that Emma brought the food.

Usually the chef only prepares the dishes, does not bring them. Moreover, not one or two employees are attached to the kitchen, but for some reason only Emma was carrying the food.

"Then I'll go? The kitchen is too big, it takes me a long time to adjust. And I'm a little worried about the taste. Please understand me even if the dish is slightly different from the usual one. Good?"

"Don't worry about it, I'm sure everything is fine."

It was her first day, and Luna knew she had a lot of work to do.

When Luna gave her permission, Emma got up and left the restaurant. At this point, Luna, Royer and Laura started eating. Laura tried first, and bowed her head oddly.

"What...? I don't think Emma did it. The taste is completely different from what I have eaten so far ... I do not want to say that it is not tasty ... But something is missing, right?"

Royer had the same reaction.

"In fact, I am of the same opinion. I have a keen taste. It's delicious, of course. But it doesn't look a bit like that."

Hearing their words, Luna hurriedly tasted the food. Then it turned out that everything was as they said. The taste was really weird.

"Well ... I know why, but let's pretend that everything is fine. She's just not used to the new kitchen yet. Until Emma gets used to it, we'll eat it, and then everything will return as it was."

Not knowing why the taste had changed, Luna offered not to bother Emma and pretend everything was fine.

Laura and Royer agreed without a word.

All three decided to ignore Emma's mistake, so the meal resumed.

Later, if Emma asked if the taste was okay, everyone would say yes, even though it wasn't.

The next day, Luna, who got up early in the morning, began to dress with Laura's help.

First of all, she decided to put on makeup, correcting her skin tone and adding tints to her eyes and lips, matching it to the dress she chose last night.

It was a simple job, but it took quite a lot of time and effort. Laura, who was looking at Luna, wondering whether to tie her hair or not, said admiring her beauty.

"I always think about it, but you always get great makeup."

"You mean I'm so pretty?"

"No! No, I meant that every time you put on makeup, you become much more sophisticated."

Laura, collecting her hair, did not know how to make excuses, and Luna could hardly hold back her laughter, but continued.

"So my face looks better with makeup, and not as good as without it?"

"No! This is not what I meant!"

At that moment, the servant knocked on the door.

"The hostess. A guest has arrived."

Luna immediately left the room.

"Already? It is too early. Who could it be?"

"Maybe Lady Rosemary ..."

"Of course, who else could have come before besides her?"

There was still an hour before the party, and Rosemary, who had already arrived, greeted Luna with the butler on the ground floor.

The butler, who was always quite serious, for some reason smiled slightly. Luna, thinking that he was glad to see his former mistress, did not pay attention to this.

"Lady Rosemary. You're so early."

"Luna!"

Seeing her, Rosemary approached Luna with shining eyes.

"I came so early because I want to give you something."

"Give, me?"

By the way, when did we manage to switch to you?

"Yes. I really hope that you will like my gift."

Rosemary beckoned the maid behind her. Then she handed over a small box that she was holding in her hands.

"What is it?"

"Open it."

Opening the box, Luna saw a red hair band studded with rubies and a glove with diamonds on her wrist.

"Aren't they pretty? I made them for your first party."

Rosemary's hair was also tied with a red hair band. And on the hands were gloves with diamonds.

"These are the same things as yours."

"Yes. It would be nice if I wear the same dress as yours, but it would be too burdensome, so I prepared a hat and gloves."

"... "

It was already quite burdensome, but Luna was glad that at least their dresses would be different.

"Your hair is as beautiful as the night sky, so red is a great color for you."

Rosemary continued even though Luna stood silent. Her sad appearance made Luna accept her gift.

"Thanks. I am very thankful. Laura, can you tie it up in my hair?"

"Yes."

Laura tied Laura's hair with the ribbon she got from Rosemary.

"What do you think?"

"My God, you are so beautiful."

Rosemary said, looking at her with burning eyes.

Hearing the unexpected compliment from Rosemary, Luna laughed embarrassedly.

In such a warm atmosphere, a carriage drove through the main gate.

Rosemary saw the patterns on the carriage through the window and alerted Luna in advance of the unexpected guest.

"This is Lady Karen, she is an artist. She is the same age as me, she is very patient, she is probably the only one who listens to my noisy chatter to the end."

"Rosemary! Long time no see."

Karen got out of the carriage and went inside the house. But she was not alone, she was accompanied by a noblewoman, dressed in a ceremonial dress.

At the sight of the intruder, Rosemary asked Karen with a cold smile.

"Yes, a long time ago. Karen, who is this? "

"Oh, sorry for not being able to warn you. I have such a busy schedule lately, so there is very little time. Today my old friend is accompanying me because you are introducing your new friend. I thought it would be a little inconvenient, so I arrived a little earlier to ask your permission."

Karen called her friend. Her friend came closer, smiled brightly and introduced herself.

"My name is Flora. Sorry for not being invited, if this is inconvenient for you, please just tell me."

After greeting Rosemary, Flora turned her gaze to Luna. And froze like a statue.

Luna also did not expect to meet her in such a place. But now her position has changed a lot, so she smiled and said.

"An old friend."

"You know each other?"

Luna answered Rosemary's question with a smile.

"Yes, we saw each other several times. Once at my house, and the second time near a clothing store. A very funny situation. Yes?"

"Have you been at Luna's house? And went shopping with her? So you're pretty close friends, aren't you? "

Rosemary asked with envy. Because she was not at her house, and did not go shopping with her. As a result, Luna smiled contentedly.

"I do not know. Could it be called closeness."

It was one of Seira's friends who came to her home and whom she met near a clothing store.

Perhaps due to their last meeting, Flora could not cope with her shocked expression on her face, staring at Luna.

Luna, who was worried about this, quickly made a decision and said.

"My old friend has come a long way. I can't tell her to go back to where she came from. Therefore, you are welcome."

Luna wondered how this party would go, because after their last argument, she had two more wishes left.
