His Sweet Menace novel

---- I didn't even know if I really meant it or if I was just saying it out of rage. Then one day, the murderer quietly admitted that someone had paid him to do the deed. He just wanted to leave some money behind for his family before he died. He knelt and apologized, begging me not to touch his daughter. He didn't know much about the one who hired him, just scraps of information. I spent ages piecing it together until I finally learned the truth.

They wanted Carl's heart for the heir of the Bowman family. Patrick had arranged for it. His daughter Lilith was the heir's fiancée, after all. And Carl's heart was the exact match the heir needed. Ihad no proof. I couldn't do anything to the Moore family, let alone get near them. The heir of the Bowman family was so far above me that I'd never meet him in my lifetime. I bought a knife and planned to run straight to the Moore family and kill them.

But my friends from the orphanage and the Matron warned me that Carl wouldn't want to see me like that. Indeed , Carl was always kind. He used to remind me ---- not to do bad things, saying my manipulative streak was dangerous. If I stained my hands with blood and stepped into the afterlife as a murderer, he would be disappointed, wouldn't he? I felt chained down, living in agony day and night. Until one day, I saw the name of the Bowman family's heir-Charles Bowman.
