Thanks for the chapter!
Would be nice if that hot headed red haired knight tried to attack Chloe and got a hoof between the legs from Howl removing any chance of having children in the future. Considering she was locked in the stall for so long I'm surprised the doctor didn't just give her some paper, something to write on, an inkwell and pen to write that book he wants. It's not like watching over Howl required constant observation once his health stabilized.
Isn't her hair brown, why is it being referred to as black? Wonder why Aaron arguing with doctor over what Chloe doing? Considering he's an archduke's butler he should be able to request for her to help relax even if she is in the nursing department unless he's staying behind in the mansion. In any case, in house politics always drive me crazy between the juvenile infighting and crazy attempts to improve station even if it risks or weakens the house regardless of success or failure. Guess will just have to keep reading to see how those two try to monopolize her. Hope she leaves the recipes behind for Anna to sleep well without her considering it'll probably be a while before they see each other again between the stall confinement and upcoming ceremony. Be a hoot to see Archduke try to find info about her and discover that 'Chloe' doesn't have any history much less a paper trail on how she ended up a slave in his house, and that nobody can tell him anything about her past.
