Chapter 5:

Among the aristocrats

The Awakening of Science


AMONG THE ARISTOCRATS
Not long after the opening of Aurora’s World of Sweets, she had become one of the most prominent entrepreneurs in the city. Her chocolates and coffee graced not only the tables of common townsfolk but also those of the nobility.
One day, Aurora received a special letter from the city’s governor:
> “Honorable Miss Aurora,We have heard of your extraordinary craft and hereby invite you as a guest to the upcoming meeting of the Noble Council. This is in recognition of your remarkable achievements.”


The invitation took Aurora completely by surprise. She turned to Morris, her eyes wide in disbelief.— “Morris, I’ve been invited to the council of nobles? Is this even possible?”
Morris gave her a calm smile.— “Do you still doubt yourself? You’re not just a maker of sweets. You’ve changed people’s lives. They have no choice but to accept you.”
The day of the meeting arrived. Aurora dressed in an elegant gown, her hair styled beautifully, and wore a pair of fine earrings. Accompanied by a few staff members, she arrived at the noble palace in a luxurious carriage.
At the entrance, the guards greeted her respectfully:— “Welcome, Miss Aurora.”
As she entered the grand hall, dozens of nobles turned to look at her with curiosity. Lord Fenriel stepped forward, smiling warmly.— “Here is our city’s rising star! Dear friends, meet Miss Aurora. She is no longer merely a merchant—she is one of us.”
Aurora bowed gracefully.— “It’s an honor to meet you all. Today, I’ve brought a new variety of chocolate for you to sample.”
The nobles tasted the sweets, unable to hide their amazement.— “Exquisite!”— “To create such wonders takes not just talent, but a heart full of passion.”
By the end of the gathering, several nobles offered her private investments. Aurora’s name now spread beyond the city, becoming known across the entire region. Local newspapers declared:
> “The Sweet Queen: Now an Aristocrat!”“Miss Aurora – A Symbol of Art and Commerce”


That evening, Aurora and Morris spoke privately. Aurora’s eyes reflected a deep sense of fulfillment.— “I never thought my life would change like this. It’s not just for me, but for the people—it feels like a huge step forward.”
Morris replied calmly:— “You rose with your own strength. This is nothing short of a peaceful revolution.”
Aurora smiled softly.— “It’s everything you taught me that brought me here.”
