Ending: Cinders finally manages to drastically change her life and re-takes her residence from Lady Carmosa. She starts a new era for herself and her family. Thanks to the invitation forgery, Cinders is able to remove Carmosa from her position and take the rule of the house in her own hands. Broken, Carmosa steps down, and soon becomes a docile senile old lady. A shadow of her former self.

Cinders is a good and lovable host of her noble house and the positive impression she made during the Grand Ball draws in many noble guests. Soon the residence becomes a popular point of meetings and social events, and the family starts gaining political weight in the Kingdom.

Cinders builds mutual understanding and friendship with Sophia, and they run the house together, thwarting any intrigue attempts by Gloria. Eventually, Gloria marries into a rich merchant family, and -- free of Carmosa’s influence-- becomes a respectable host of her own house.

Cinders never meets the love of her life. Eventually, she’s forced into a common-sense marriage with an heir of another noble house. Their relationship is pretty happy and respectful, but devoid of any deeper feelings.
