The Low-Ranking Civil Servant Wants to Achieve Success

I hastily opened the letter.

Minister,

I'm very sorry, but I suddenly feel too ill to attend the banquet.

Since you said you’re fine entering alone, I won’t feel too guilty.

I hope you have a wonderful banquet.

‘He seemed perfectly fine just yesterday?’

Despite all of Jaden’s nagging, Kibon hadn’t said a word about canceling as her partner.

But now, right at the last minute, this kind of withdrawal? It really didn’t seem like something Kibon would do.

And yet, the very fact he would say this must mean he was really sick.

I immediately wrote a reply and sent it through a maid.

Don’t worry and rest well. Like you said, I actually really like going in alone.

I’m worried you might be really sick though. I hope you’ll be okay.
