“I’m sorry, Rosa. I never thought I would cause you such an injury while I was around,” Alex apologized with a remorseful expression.

Ethan looked at Alex’s figure with a face as if he had swallowed a bitter bug.

(Oh, this development might be dangerous.)

Rosa instinctively sensed a crisis.

“No, no, it’s not a big deal,” Rosa replied.

In reality, the injury was significant enough to last a lifetime, but Rosa wanted to end the conversation quickly, so she behaved as amiably as possible.

To be honest, she didn’t want to move her facial muscles because it hurt when she smiled. However, Rosa’s face, without a smile, looked severe and frightening.

Beautiful, yes, but with a villainous face. Unfortunately, even her smile had a certain intensity. It could be said that she had an evil face, despite being born beautiful. What a pity.

“Will the scar remain?” Alex asked with a concerned expression as he approached Rosa’s bed.

He seemed quite anxious.

Her father probably exaggerated it to Alex. Her father, being a doting parent, supported Rosa’s love.

Next time, she would tell her father that she had a change of heart and didn’t need the third prince.

Moreover, judging by the progress of the manga, Alex’s heart already belonged to Ellen, and now that she remembered her past life, she didn’t need another woman’s man.

“Absolutely no problem,” Rosa said decisively, and at the same time, Ethan spoke up.

“The person herself says there’s no problem, Alex. Don’t feel more responsible than necessary.”

Surprised by Ethan’s straightforward statement, Rosa inadvertently looked at him, and he returned a sharp gaze.

(Scary. Am I going to be killed by’my favorite’ Ethan-sama after all?)

Her heart raced in fear.

“Uncle, will the scar on Rosa’s forehead remain?”

“For now, I can’t say, but trust my skills,” Ethan said, approaching Rosa’s bed with a cautious demeanor.

“I will take responsibility and marry you if the situation results in a scar, Rosa.”

“What? What are you talking about?”

Rosa was surprised by his sudden proposal. She hadn’t pressured him into marriage, nor had she asked him to take responsibility, so Alex’s offer caught her off guard.

“Alex, what’s gotten into you? How about calming down a bit?”

“Your Highness, I’m perfectly fine, as you can see,” Rosa said, trying to put on a friendly facade, although her head was pounding and she didn’t want to move her facial muscles to avoid the pain.

“That’s right. Don’t hurry.”

Rosa reacts to Ethan’s unnecessary words.

“What? What do you mean by ‘don’t rush’?”

Even Rosa, who was usually composed, couldn’t stand Ethan’s words and furrowed her brow in irritation.

(Even if he’s handsome, I can’t forgive that statement!)

In this life, Rosa’s maiden heart is raging as she ignores the pain of the scar on her forehead.

However, Ethan easily ignores Rosa’s fiery and angry gaze.

“Excuse me, Miss Croitzer. That’s the end of today’s examination. We’ll see you again another day,” he said, quickly packing up and dragging the seemingly clueless Alex out.

The door closed in an instant.

“Oh, they’re such a nuisance. Unfortunately, His Excellency is the best healer in the country,” Rosa sighed.

She really wanted the scar on her forehead to fade a bit and the pain to go away.

“Miss, what happened to you? You seemed so smitten with His Highness until just now,” Helena, the usually silent and capable maid, asked with a worried expression.

“Helena, let me tell you. The moment I met His Highness Alex, I thought I had awakened to true love. But now, I realize I was just in love with a handsome and capable prince. In other words, I was a maiden in love with love.”

“Oh, a maiden in love, I see…”

Helena didn’t seem to fully grasp the situation.

“In other words, I thought becoming His Highness’s fiancée would satisfy my approval-seeking desires.”

“I see! Well, if that’s the case, I understand.”

Helena, despite being a somewhat impolite maid, wasn’t disliked by Rosa at the moment.

“Helena, have you ever been fired from a maid job?”

“Yes, I’ve been fired twice.”

“Twice? Then why were you hired here?”

“Sir liked my excellence and unyielding nerves.”

“I see.”

In a practical sense, he seemed like a rational father.

From Rosa’s perspective now, Helena, who spoke her mind, was a welcome presence.

With her around, maybe she could avoid the death flag.
