The story begins with our female lead, Erika, in the carriage thinking about whether she will do a good job or not, while she was nervous and thinking about what would happen if she was caught, the carriage shook so hard that Erika's head hit the wall of the carriage, then a large hand grabbed her shoulder forcefully.
Erika, stunned, quickly came back to her senses.
When Erika looked at her with wide eyes, the face of Bonbig, the head maid, appeared so frowning that vertical wrinkles formed between her eyebrows.
Bonbig got annoyed with Erika and told her that because of Erika's sighing habits and sitting position, she would be easily caught. Erika apologized, but Erika's apology only made Bonbig even more angry with her.
"Keep in mind and remember, you are now the face of the Marquis de Blanche, you better have these words etched into your bones, " Bonbig threatened Erica. "
I swear when I read that line I got really upset with her, it's not like Erica likes being a stand-in.
As for the real Erica, her name is Erica de Blanche, and she is the only daughter of the Blanche family. She was born prematurely, and for this reason everyone believed that this was the reason for her weakness since birth. Because the birth was difficult, the Marchioness also died while giving birth to her daughter. After the Marchioness died, the servants raised Erica with great care after obtaining her with great difficulty. While everyone took care of her, cared for her, supported her, and feared that anything would scratch her, Erica grew up to be evil. Because of her actions, the nannies changed countless times.
Then a commoner named Julia came and became Erica's nanny. The strange thing is that the nanny also had a daughter the same age as Erica de Blanche. Julia's daughter's name was "Erica". That's why Erica de Blanche hated her nanny's daughter so much. "You don't use that name! That's my name! It's not a name someone like you can use!" I really hate this spoiled girl. I can't believe she's called "Erica" like our female lead. The annoying thing about the matter is that the Marquis loved his daughter excessively, he asked Julia to change her daughter's name, because it is strange that they have two similar names, and even if Julia changed her daughter's name, her daughter would get used to the name because she is still young!?why you don't change your daughter name then?
Anyway Julia refused, her husband named her baby, the Marquis was annoyed by her refusal and described it as just a name why the stubbornness. Seriously if it's just a name why don't you change your daughter's name? Julia offered to resign if the Marquis continued to ask her to change her daughter's name. The Marquis was upset and wanted to throw her out, but because his dear daughter loved Julia, he offered her not to call her daughter's name in front of his daughter. Julia started calling her daughters "Riri" and "Rika". Erika, our female lead, continued to live quietly until one day the Marquis asked for her presence. The Marquis asked Erika to come to his office, and he started acting impatient and annoyed, he started with a ridiculous introduction about his daughter being very sick and both his daughter and her being the same age and stage, and even with his daughter's sick condition he couldn't postpone the wedding and they might use the fact that my daughter is sick as an excuse to condemn our family, Erika understood that the Marquis was suggesting that she be his daughter's replacement, but Erika refused that she wouldn't dare but the Marquis interrupted her saying that if she betrayed her mother's salvation she would have to become a replacement, Erika was surprised and afraid for her mother, so she ended up agreeing in order to save her mother, and since that day, Erika made countless efforts to become like the Marquis' daughter Erika Blanche. Her silver hair, which used to shine like snow in the sunlight, was now dyed red, the symbol of the Blanche family, Erika decided to wait until she came of age, which was 9 years later, and then she would find her mother and escape with her. After a flashback, we return to the carriage where it stopped in front of the Grand Duchy's main palace. Erika got out of the carriage that wasn't even suitable for riding or even had the Marquis's emblem on it. Erika stood for an hour in the cold weather looking on. Since the Marquis didn't bring any maids to help Erika, she stood there without knowing what to do.
