Knowing the plot and possessing a space of her own, she quickly sets herself three goals.
First: become a trusted favorite of her mistress within two months, rising from a lowly maid to someone who serves at her side.
Second: get back her indenture contract.
Third: make a fortune and fill up her space!
But while she’s working hard toward her goals, why does the young heir to the marquisate keep giving her pearls one day and earrings the next?
And she only wanted to become the old madam’s favorite. How did she end up becoming the young heir’s favorite instead?
In the end, whether she becomes a favorite of one or the other won’t change her plans to get back her indenture contract!

Setback one: Everyone says women love peonies, so he gives her white peonies. But she likes plum blossoms in the snow.
Setback two: Everyone says you shouldn’t indulge a woman, so he ignores her for a few days, thinking she’ll get anxious. But she stays calm, and he’s the one who gets anxious first.
Setback three: After endless effort, he finally makes her fall for him, only to discover she loves making money and doing business even more!
