### Summary
Continuing her adjustment to the Salvator household, Leslie is showered with affection, creating a heartwarming atmosphere that readers find deeply fulfilling. The stark reality of her past abuse is highlighted by her reactions to simple kindnesses, such as when she tearfully accepts a ribbon, choosing one that matches the eyes of the Salvator Duke. This powerful matriarch, praised by readers for being a refreshing female lead, solidifies her role as a protector with a reassuring declaration of "I am here," a line that many humorously compared to All Might from \*My Hero Academia\*. However, this newfound sense of security is shattered by the chapter's central conflict: legal proceedings require Leslie to return to the abusive Speràdo family for one month before the adoption can be finalized. This revelation sparks significant anxiety and frustration among the audience, who, while understanding the narrative logic, dread her return to such a dangerous environment. The chapter masterfully balances tender moments of a found family with the looming threat of Leslie's past, leaving readers both touched and deeply concerned for her immediate future.
