Rather, thanks to the disappearance of the interrupter, they could talk even more freely.

While drinking tea for a while, Chloe explained why he had been kicked out of the Imperial Castle, why he couldnt have picked up Carin, and why he had later tried to find Carin but hadnt found her. He included that he had missed her so far. Carin wiped her tears in the pathetic story, and Arias heart moved.

If youve been faced with such a big thing, you wouldnt have been able to stay sane. I would have had aphasia. I understand.

Thank you for your understanding. I tried to find Carin late, but I couldnt find her because there were so many similar names. Besides, its a little bit my condition wasnt good either.

I may be like that, if you go to Croa.

As she said he understood Chloe, Asher intervened in the conversation with a serious tone. She had no intention of going, but he kept on begging not to go. She wanted to make fun of him.

Its true. You will absolutely miss me.

Lady Aria!

But Aria was satisfied with Ashers frown face, and turned the subject, as he told her not to say such a joke.

Mother, what are you going to do now? Im big now and I will respect whatever you do.

Me? Im not sure. Even if we have a child, its strange to get married

Carin glanced at Chloe as she spoke. It seemed that he should catch the sign of her intention, and that he should try his best effort to get her heart.

Chloe, who had come to the empire in search of Carin, replied that it was natural. I will try to get your heart. I will come to the empire over and over again. Getting a mansion near you is the first step.

Chloe answered Aria sincerely, and Carin was drinking tea quietly, but in his very enthusiastic aspect, her cheeks got red and asked what she had been curious about, as some of their conversations were sorted out.

Well, did you say that youd help Mielle when you get back to the mansion and that youd send someone? Then, Im sending someone. Who is the woman who is going to take Mielle with?

Ah, I did. Youll soon find out because she will bring Mielle. Well, its not bad to be a little late. She will be more desperate than that. Wouldnt that be more fun? Aria replied imagining Mielle, who was crying uglily.

It must be a masterpiece that I want to leave as a picture. If I saw it myself, it would be great, but unfortunately, there was someone else to see it.

They sat down in the parlor and talked about Chloe being her biological father, and arranging the family register would be good after Carins decision, and after that, Lohan returned to the lobby and they finished the conversation in no time.

Why do you finish the conversation when I come? Lohan asked with a displeased face.

It wasnt because of you. We were trying to end the conversation, but you didnt come back, and weve waited for you to come back.

Chloe replied casually. It was a bright face that he was no longer upset.

Chloe. You stayed in the room crying because you couldnt find Carin, but now you talk quite a bit.

Lohan was annoyed, but they did not continue the conversation which had already ended.

After that, Asher left the mansion and Chloe, who suggested a date to Carin for a walk, stayed in the mansion and waited for her to be dressed. Lohan, who had not gained much harvest, left with all kinds of irritation to go back to Croa first, and Aria, who was going up to her room, ordered a pa.s.sing servant to call her maid to send to Mielle.

Where is Annie? Please tell her to come up to my room because I have something to say.

At the instruction of Aria, the servant bowed to her and disappeared to call Annie.

Without waiting too long, Annie quickly came to Arias room. There was a lot of curiosity on her face, wondering the conversation they had just had in the parlor, and the ident.i.ty of the unidentified guests.

Miss, did you call me?

Annie squeezed the curiosity into her heart and asked Aria, pretending to be casual. She seemed to think that Aria would tell her when the time came anyway.

It was obviously seen, and Aria smiled softly and gestured her to sit on the other side.

Sit down.

Yes, Miss.

At Arias hand gesture, she ran and sat down at the other side, and Annies face was very excited. Instead of having her do something, she told her to sit on the other side as if she was talking about something. And Annies prediction was such a hit.

I have something to tell you. Its very important.

Annie s.h.i.+ned her eyes and opened her ears. It meant that she was ready to hear anything, without missing any words.

Aria continued to say, You need to go to jail.

Yeah? Jail, Jail? But it was not a funny and interesting story, but she was surprised and misinterpreted that Aria would put her in jail, like Mielle and Cain, and asked back,

You dont have to be surprised that much. Im not saying you will be put in jail, but Im asking you to bring Mielle.

Then Annie swept away from her heart as if she was relieved and asked why she would visit,

Why am I going? Werent you her guardian?

No, you are the guardian of Mielle. You filed the pet.i.tion, although I called the contents.

Thats thats what you told me to do? I just did what you told me

As Annie said, she had only written as Aria had told her.

But it was definitely Annie who had submitted it, and the person who would be Mielles guardian was the one who had filed the pet.i.tion, so Annie was legally the guardian, though Aria had ordered her to do that.

So you dont like it?

Yeah?

I mean, do you hate bringing Mielle?

Arias question darkened Annies face a little. Annie didnt say she didnt like it, but it seemed to be very disgusting. She was foolish indeed. It was a rare opportunity Aria had prepared, and it meant that Mielle, who had no status as a commoner, would belong to her own right.

Then they said Mielle couldnt be apart from her guardian, and she would be executed immediately upon departure.

yeah?

So she may die if she goes afar from you. I mean, Mielle shouldnt be apart from you. No matter what happens.

Annies expression became mysterious. It was a face that seemed to grasp something in Arias useless explanation, but she was not certain.

And Aria continued, Besides, she has fallen to the common people for the price of rebellion, and she is in the same status like you. Its different from the past when she did nothing pretending to be a n.o.ble, but a commoner isnt like that. A commoner works and gets paid for each day.

!

Mielle was now a commoner and could not be separated from Annie by anything. And Mielle, who was no longer aristocrat, couldnt live simply by staying. She was not a n.o.ble who led an elegant life with the estates she received from the country, but she should work hard every day like the common people.

Annies eyes glistened as she understood this. Though she understood Arias words, she was looking for a little more confirmation.

Besides, is it time for you to think of marriage with Baron Burboom? If that happens, youll become the Baroness, so youre better off getting used to having a maid. As you know, I had a hard time at first.

!

So Annie, who confirmed the hidden meaning of having Mielle like a maid, jumped out of her seat with a smile. She wanted to get Mielle out of jail right now and make her do all the hard work.

But in order to do that, she needed the permission of Aria who had called her. Annie waited for her answer, feeling nervous as if urging her.

Go and take her.

Thank you! Miss! Ill get back soon!

Annie went out of the way and soon knocked on the door again. She couldnt have been there already, so Aria answered with a mysterious voice, and Annie carefully asked Aria with a reddish face.

Miss Miss Im sorry, but can I dress up a bit? I think I am dressed so simple

Annie seemed to be very firmly prepared to master Mielle.

It will also hurt Mielle. How would you react if Annie, a maid, appeared beautifully in front of you?
