Unlike the rest of the household, Posy treats Sophie with kindness and genuine affection.

Sophie considers Posy one of the few people who has consistently shown her friendship and support.

👩‍🍳 Irma Gibbons Irma is the head cook at Penwood House. She acts as a maternal figure for Sophie, providing the emotional support and protection that Sophie lacks from her own stepfamily. Irma is one of the two servants who actively encourage Sophie to attend the masquerade ball, believing that Sophie deserves at least one night to live for herself.

🤵 Alfie Alfie is a witty, sarcastic footman at Penwood House. He is highly resourceful and is instrumental in helping Sophie prepare for the ball, even managing to piece together her masquerade costume from items found in the attic.

When Sophie is ultimately dismissed from the household, Alfie is openly outraged by her treatment

Sophie Baek was born as the illegitimate daughter of a nobleman.

Though acknowledged by her father during parts of her childhood, she never truly belonged to either the aristocratic world or the servant class. Following changes in her family’s circumstances, Sophie found herself stripped of security and forced into a far more difficult life than she had once imagined.

Living under the authority of Araminta Gun, Sophie spent years enduring mistreatment, impossible expectations, and social limitations that reminded her daily of her place in society.

Despite these hardships, Sophie refused to surrender her dreams.

Beneath the responsibilities and struggles of daily life remained a young woman who longed for freedom, adventure, and the opportunity to determine her own future.

One extraordinary evening would eventually place her path on a collision course with London’s high society and forever change the direction of her life.
