### Summary
This chapter focuses on the escalating romantic tension and comedic dynamic between Selina and Calcion. A central event is Selina bestowing the nickname "Calcal" upon the duke, which provokes a strong and often humorous reaction from readers. Many Filipino readers find the nickname particularly amusing, as "kalkal" translates to "rummage" or "dig through," adding an unintended layer of comedy to the scenes. Calcion's flustered, blushing reaction to the nickname is a celebrated moment, with readers interpreting it as clear evidence that the cold duke is falling for her "first and hard." The romantic chemistry is further amplified during a dance scene where the tension is described as palpable, leaving fans eager for the pair to kiss. Subplot elements also progress, with a notable detail about an order for 100 extravagant, bejeweled dresses, an expense said to equal their 20-year budget. The role of the head maid, Mrs. Janet, continues to be a point of speculation, as readers question whether she is aware of the fake relationship, particularly after Selina directly tells her she has no intention of becoming the Duchess. The recurring minor issue of the duke being incorrectly addressed as "Your Majesty" instead of "Your Grace" remains a point of discussion for some readers.
