68.

Why did Violet Bringer suddenly become a Center employee?

This was my idea.

“Miss Bringer, how about working together at our Center?”

“Working together with you…? Could I really do it?”

Of course, Violet looked clearly surprised.

She probably hadn’t thought of such a thing at all.

“If you’re uncomfortable with it, I won’t suggest it anymore. I’m absolutely not forcing you.”

“…”

“But I think this would be the best method.”

Then Violet slowly closed her mouth.

From her serious expression, it seemed like she wanted to hear more of what I had to say.

“Actually, the Center is the only place where I meet with Lian too. Since we belong to the same place, we inevitably run into each other when we come to work. It’s the same for other employees too.”

“…”

“Simply put, whether we like it or not, we have no choice but to constantly bump into each other inside the Center.”

“…”

“So if your meetings with Lian take place at the Center… we can create more natural situations.”

I had received a love manipulation request from Violet.

The target was ‘Lian de Vicelle’ who works at our Center.

But that was the problem.

‘Lian is someone who already participated in Johan’s love manipulation request.’

He knew everything about how I think, what kind of content I write in scripts.

He had also seen everything about how the employees stage and direct situations.

‘Also, he’s been exposed to our use of Doradoran language too much…’

So if we proceeded exactly like with Johan, Lian would definitely find it suspicious.

‘Especially since he’s not someone who lacks awareness.’

So there was only one answer.

To deceive Lian, we needed ‘love manipulation without manipulating situations’.

The meetings between the two shouldn’t require scripts and should take place in natural settings.

‘Therefore, the only answer is the ‘Counseling Center’.’

That’s why I suggested she join the company.

“What do you think, Miss?”

Naturally, I couldn’t tell her all the detailed reasons.

‘Johan’s request and my background investigation must never be exposed…!’

Fortunately, the insufficient explanation didn’t seem to be a problem.

Violet responded.

“I like it. I’ll work hard, Miss.”

Honestly… there was another reason too.

Both the employees and I are always struggling with heavy workloads.

‘We were short-handed anyway, so it would be good if Violet helped out.’

I didn’t know yet whether she worked well or not, but she definitely wouldn’t be a slacking youngest employee like Lian.

Anyway… that’s how it happened.

I briefly told the employees first.

“I met with Miss Bringer at the Tea Salon today and had a conversation. That’s why I’m late. I recruited her on the spot just now.”

“…”

“Whatever the case… Miss Bringer is now a Center employee.”

“…”

“So I hope everyone will take good care of Miss Bringer from now on.”

But the Center was quiet.

“…”

Finn, Isadora, and Heaven.

Not even breathing sounds came from them, let alone answers.

‘This is driving me crazy. I can’t even use Doradoran language because Violet is here…’

I started sending the most benevolent smile and earnest looks to the employees.

‘Guys, please read the room.’

I’ll explain everything later…!

Once before, Lian had said this to me.

“Since joining the Center, I’ve only seen the Center Director’s smiling face exactly four times.”

As he said, I usually didn’t smile much.

It wasn’t anything else, but I should say I didn’t have the leisure to smile because Center work was so busy…

‘The fact that my eyes rapidly became fish eyes after becoming Center Director is proof.’

So the employees must have noticed that my smile was suspicious.

And my prediction was right.

“…Ahem.”

Isadora cleared her throat and pushed up her glasses that had slid down her nose.

Finn’s unfocused gaze also returned at the sound of her cough.

Only Heaven continued to look puzzled.

Isadora poked him with her elbow.

“Ugh.”

When Heaven looked at Isadora, she whispered something to him.

Soon a stupid exclamation burst from Heaven.

“Ah… ha.”

Then he nodded.

‘He must understand now.’

Anyway, the sudden Violet hiring incident seemed to be roughly resolved.

I turned to look at Violet.

“Miss Bringer.”

“Yes, Miss Will… No, Center Director.”

Violet stopped mid-sentence and corrected how she addressed me.

“I’ll call you Center Director from now on, Center Director.”

Her light purple eyes sparkled brightly.

‘Violet Bringer… you’re such a selfish woman.’

How can you be pretty even under these dull Center lights…

It was really a ridiculous situation.

The new employee says she’ll follow me, but I, the Center Director, am jealous of that employee.

I deliberately shook my head.

‘I should have kind thoughts…’

It’s probably nerve-wracking since it’s her first time here, so what am I doing as Center Director.

I spoke again.

“Miss Bringer. Let me introduce our employees.”

“Yes, Center Director.”

“Over there are Heaven Delgado and Isadora Mendoza. And this is Finn Harbor.”

I pointed to each employee as I mentioned their names.

Soon after, Violet politely clasped her hands together.

“Please take care of me, everyone. I’m Violet Bringer.”

She even bowed her head.

Then Finn and Heaven flinched in surprise.

“Uh…”

“…Oh, that…”

It seemed they were flustered that a noble woman had greeted them, who were commoners.

The flustered employees followed Violet’s lead and bowed their heads.

Meanwhile, Isadora was coolly just raising an eyebrow.

Violet straightened her posture.

“Actually, I… have never lived a busy life before. It’s embarrassing to say this myself, but I grew up like a flower in a greenhouse…”

She bit her lip briefly, looking shy.

“So I’ve always admired people who spend their days productively and meaningfully.”

“…”

“When I was sitting leisurely in the Tea Salon, the employees of Willow Counseling Center were working busily.”

Violet carefully gestured toward the employees.

“It’s really amazing. I respect you all. It’s an honor to be able to work with such people.”

“…”

“I feel like I can finally achieve my long-held dream here.”

Though she finished speaking, no one responded to her.

Honestly, even I was the same.

‘She had thoughts like that…?’

I had no idea.

I just thought Violet had accepted the job offer because she could be with Lian.

‘But she’s always admired people who work busily…’

Suddenly, Violet Bringer looked different to me.

‘I take back what I said about her head being full of flowers.’

Violet was truly an overpowered character.

She was pretty, had a good personality.

She had no prejudices against commoners and treated everyone with courtesy.

And on top of that, she was even thoughtful…

‘Just how many talents did this girl receive from God?’

No, God.

‘Couldn’t you have shared some of what you gave Violet with me?’

This is seriously game-breaking.

At this moment, I realized once again how seriously unfair the world was.

That’s when it happened.

Clap clap clap!

Suddenly Heaven started clapping his hands.

“Welcome, young lady! You’ve come to the right place!”

He seemed enchanted by Violet, who was both beautiful and humble.

Violet seemed to relax a bit at the enthusiastic welcome.

Her eyes curved into crescents.

“Since I’ve never worked before, I’ll probably be slow. I’ll be quite clumsy at work… but I hope you’ll understand.”

“…”

“If you teach me, I’ll learn diligently.”

Then she smiled brightly at the employees.

“Please take good care of me once again.”

It was truly a beautiful sight that could make anyone fall in love.

Even if that someone was Lian.
