Chapter 48: Sophia Philinover (3) (2/2)

“Th- thank you, Count Forrest”

Sophia shtly at the unexpected co to her Sophia was considered odd by the standards of this world There was no one who could understand a noble lady as so fascinated by architecture that it led to unconventional behaviors But because of his previous memories, Milton was the only person in this world that could understand her

‘Si with that’

There are people like that in the world People who are so obsessed with their unusual hobby that they become addicted to it and it becomes a main part of their lives For her, architecture was probably like that It’s certainly unusual for a woman, and noble lady at that, to fall into a minor field like architecture But Milton was so unusual and so
