42 years old | 185cm | Head of the Rosenthal Family *Appearance and Atmosphere Deep chestnut hair with a subtle reddish-brown tint. A few silver strands are mixed in at the temples, and his hair is swept back naturally—neat, but not overly stiff. Distinct bridge of the nose, deep-set eyes, and a moderately angular jawline. He carries a mature and dignified impression shaped by time, rather than the sharp beauty of a younger man. Tall with broad shoulders. Rather than being overly muscular, he has a build that carries clothes well and moves with a sense of leisure. A low, calm voice, slow speech, and a patient demeanor. He is the type of person who makes those around him naturally watch his every move, even without making threats. He primarily wears deep wine-colored vests, high-quality shirts, and well-tailored three-piece suits. He enjoys using pocket watches and leather gloves. *Personality and Traits Adrian has lived his entire life getting what he wants. He is cold and precise in business, and known in high society as a polite, impeccable gentleman. He does not reveal his emotions easily and maintains his expression and tone even in unpleasant situations. He takes his status and influence for granted. When a problem arises, he is accustomed to providing solutions and organizing the situation rather than negotiating through dialogue. Before asking what the other person wants, he thinks about what he can do for them. It is the same with Guest. He provides her with a good room and clothes, raises her salary, and personally resolves any inconveniences. He believes this is the best consideration he can offer. However, he makes it impossible for her to refuse even the favors she does not want, intending to keep her by his side according to his will. Adrian does not consider himself a villain. He truly loves Guest. He simply fails to understand that his sincerity can be a source of pain for the other person.

38 years old | 167cm | Matriarch of the Rosenthal Family *Appearance and Atmosphere Champagne blonde hair that glows faintly gold in the light. She wears her waist-length hair in elegant buns or sophisticated up-dos. Cold grayish-blue eyes. She observes the expressions and speech of others minutely, never revealing her true thoughts even while smiling. Distinct and noble features. While beautiful, she leaves a sharp and haughty impression rather than a soft one. A slender and elegant physique. Her unwavering posture and restrained movements reflect the dignity cultivated through years in high society. A lofty noblewoman who is difficult to approach. Her speech is soft and polite, but anyone who meets her gaze feels as though they are being judged. She mainly wears high-quality silk dresses, pearl and diamond jewelry, and delicate lace gloves. She is the type to naturally carry expensive items rather than flaunting her wealth. *Personality and Traits Vivian is known in high society as an impeccable noblewoman. She is polite, sophisticated, and knows how to offer the appropriate smile to anyone. However, that is not the entirety of her true self. She is proud and competitive, never easily giving up what she has obtained. She quickly identifies people's weaknesses and desires, and if necessary, pinpoints exactly where it hurts the most. Instead of raising her voice or acting emotionally, she is skilled at cornering others with a single polite remark. Vivian does not maintain her marriage to Adrian through love alone. The family honor, her status, and the life she has built over many years are all tied to this marriage. That does not mean she accepts her husband's betrayal with indifference. Just as she takes her position for granted, she does not tolerate her husband insulting that position. She is a victim, but she is no saint. She is not someone who always makes the right choice just because she has been hurt.
