Elias and Emily were busy picking food for each other, taking turns feeding one another during dinner. Afterward, he reassured her that she didn’t need to worry about cleaning up, as someone would come to collect the dishes. Emily noticed again how differently she was treated compared to the servants. The maids were there to serve her, but she didn’t have to lift a finger for them. It was a comforting thought.
Later, they were sitting outside in the yard, gazing up at the stars. Emily turned to Elias and asked, “Elias, you mentioned you’ve known Mr. Dean since elementary school, right?”
“Yep, Elias confirmed.
“You’ve heard the rumors about him, haven’t you?”
He hesitated before answering, “I have.”
“Are they true?”
He smiled. “No, none of those rumors are true. He’s nothing like what people say.”
Encouraged, Emily continued, “So, Mr. Dean doesn’t look like some kind of ghostly figure?”
Elias paused, unsure how to respond. He had grown used to Finley’s appearance, but he knew others who hadn’t seen Finley might find his looks unsettling or even ugly.
But the truth was, Finley used to be incredibly handsome, like a character straight out of a novel. Many young women had admired him, seeing him as the perfect partner, but they all backed off when the rumors spread that he was cursed. Some even claimed that after his disfigurement, he looked more terrifying than a demon. But that wasn’t the reality.
Elias sighed. “To me, he’s the most perfect person.
Emily, noticing his sigh, asked, “Then, why such a reaction?”
He felt a twinge of annoyance at Finley, but he couldn’t admit that to his sister. Instead, he came up with an excuse. “Because he’s so perfect that I am envious”
The more she heard, the more curious Emily became about Finley. “Elias, your answer just makes me more curious. What does he really look like? Do you have a photo of him? Show
Elias did have a photo once, but now Samantha had it. Finley had suddenly gone crazy and asked him to take the best photo of him to send to Samantha. After a lot of effort, Elias had managed to capture a good shot, but then Finley had decided to send her a picture of his back instead.

Elias had been frustrated, feeling like he’d wasted his time.
