Only Sophia ever suspects anything, but even she stops to care in time. Cinders never regrets her actions.

While the events of the Grand Ball turned the Court’s attention towards her, Cinders doesn’t really have any grand plans for her noble house. She lives a calm, quiet, and happy life, finally free from Lady Carmosa’s plots and expectations.

Cinders manages to build mutual understanding with Gloria, and they run the house together. Gloria, free from her Mother’s influence, proves to be a clever and resourceful host. Sophia becomes more and more bitter, pushed away by her sister and Cinders. She eventually leaves the house after marrying a common peddler. Her marriage is unhappy.

Years later, he gets heavily wounded in a combat with a band of brigands terrorizing nearby town, and he loses control over his right arm forever. Disability makes him feel useless and depressed but Cinders’ love and support helps him to get through this grim period, and the couple eventually marries to live a long and happy life.
