### Summary
The narrative pivots from high-stakes foreshadowing back to farcical comedy as Geumja attempts to thwart a new poisoning plot. Disguised as a maid with help from the returning Isabella, Geumja tries to prevent the rival prince, Isak, from drinking a poisoned glass. Her methods, however, are comically unsubtle and immediately brand her as suspicious, with readers finding her chaotic and inept execution hilarious. The tense situation escalates when an unidentified man confronts her about her strange behavior, leading to widespread reader speculation that he is the actual poisoner who has inadvertently exposed himself. This standoff is abruptly interrupted by the sudden appearance of Kyle, who, despite her disguise, instantly recognizes Geumja. His "scary" and "terrifying" expression is interpreted by readers not as a genuine threat, but as a darkly comedic testament to their deep bond and his unerring ability to find her in the midst of her chaotic schemes. The incident highlights the recurring theme of Geumja's clumsy but determined efforts to defy fate, even when her actions ironically make her appear to be the villain.
