“She’s also like the perfect person for me” AHHHHHHH!!! AND he called HER “WIFE” INSTEAD OF DUCHESS! I love that ML is attracted to the important things, their good chemistry, her intelligence, specifically that she is BETTER than him in some areas, and her expressiveness. It’s the foundation for a healthy relationship.

I’m proud of ML, but I foresee a VERY slow burn in his future. And honestly, he kind of deserves it. He gave very little sh*ts about the original duchess. He knew she was nervous, uncomfortable, felt unwelcome, and he was blind if he didn’t suspect the bullying.

I really hope he brings up the fact that the maids just waltz in when they please. Yeah, they have no respect for her because YOU had no respect for her, ML.

Maid, bugger off! Not now! Not when it's so GOOOD!!!

Plus, Al, she is your wife, only better and stronger than before. The Chloe before is gone.

Oooh the fluff. I'm dying from the fluff. Uggh, my heart.

Duke basically thinks almost everyone is stupid in special the women since they don't receive useful education, Duchess started to show "intelligence" he started to feel affection to her...

 

[Suckerforshipping]

@Karmichel that isn’t it. He started to show favor to her when her personality changed; not because she started to be intelligent. That was only a plus.

 

[ViKaede]

And then the duke gets mad at maid because she did not knock xDDDDDDD

But when he calls her WIFE ASDDFGHJKASSDF

It's cute how they're getting drawn together but if I was the Duke I'd begin to really wonder what would cause such a drastic change in character. The way he reflects on how Chloe used to be, the two versions seem almost like night and day. It wouldn't be strange for him to wonder if there was someone new in her life that was causing the change, be it a romantic relationship or not.

 

[JutlandAngel]

@Karmichel I don't think he necessarily thinks people are stupid, he's just indifferent to them. And he started to show interest in Chloe when she asked for tea instead of jewels, not exactly an intelligent request in a country that sees it as a barbaric drink.

 

[Sceleris]

What a garbage chapter. So many missed opportunities! For example, they could have drunk tea during the business meeting, or she could have served him tea in her bedroom. Now that I think about it, they didn't even mention tea!

This is very upsetting. I will be writing my congressman about this.

 

[suchtla]

I'm so confused by the mix of Victorian / pre-Victorian characteristics in women's education and responsibilites (but ok, it's Isekai... shouldn't expect a history lesson here.)

+ I lol'd at the part where he's thinking about women being too dangerous if they learned about other things. 😅
It's not like patriarchy really works that way, guys mostly wouldn't be concious about what the system that favours them did to the others.

Oh well, looking forward to the next tea session.

 

[lunazehel]

And there it goes their moment getting ruined by a servant hahaha

 

[Celeste123]

Omg the chapter was so sweet and then the maid came in a ruined it all.

 

[shiirosagi]

Aaaaa this was so cuteee

 

[Siquall]

Very cute chapter yeah.

Of course the Duke didn't paid attention to her before, he never saw chloe as his real wife, she never asked for anything, was too shy, it's like she didn't even existed, unlike now.

 

[icarushector]

@Kthp not that this makes it better, but wasn't she chosen because she wouldn't be an influence or interference in his work, just there to check the "proper boxes" for his advancement. She's a side note in his existence until now.

 

[yuchiyo]

Wohoho. The duke is making his move
