A letter has arrived for you, my lady, rilyn said.
I checked the sender of the letter to see that it was from Veronica.She sent one so soon. Did she have sothing to say to ?I removed the wax seal and opened the letter. The contents of the letter were filled with descriptions about the unfair treatnt she had received from Mikhail, such as him seeing multiple won at once. She ended the letter by expressing her worries for , saying that Mikhail was abnormally obsessed with .
Mikhail this man should be punished by the heavens.I let him go until now because of what I had done to him in the past, but I was aware that he was seeing multiple people at once.It was more like he was managing his personal relationships so that he could use them whenever he needed them, but even that made
distressed.
Reading her letter reminded
of my foolish past. For so unknown reason, I felt a bitter taste in my mouth and started to crave sothing sweet.Should I ask Matthew to bake
a cake? But the one at the tearoom was better than what he makes
My worries were cut short.
rilyn, could you get
ready to go out?
Yes, my lady. Ill help you change into new clothes first.
After she finished helping
change, she started to make her way towards the door. Please wait here for a mont. Ill report your outing to the butler, she said.
Okay.
He should be here tomorrow since hes not here today, right?I thought with a smile when she left. Since I was going out anyway, I was thinking about buying Max a cake as well, when my thoughts were interrupted by a tapping sound at my window.
I stiffened slightly.Its not a pigeon, is it?I nervously thought as I crept towards the window. I peeked out and sighed in relief when I saw Maxs familiar face.I told him to use the door like a normal person, but he ca by this way again.As soon as I undid the latch, he entered the room.
Welco, I greeted.
Are you going sowhere?
At that mont, I heard rilyns voice co from outside the door. My lady, everythings ready.
My gaze flitted over to Max at those words. Good timing. I was going to go get so cake. Lets go together, I offered, thinking that he would accept since he was soone who ate multiple slices of cake by himself. But instead of answering , he gazed at
with a stiff face.
I have sothing to say, he soon spoke with a low voice.
I nodded, thinking that he was going to say so nonsense like he always did, but my eyes widened at the words that ca out of his mouth.
Sothing ca up and I need to take care of it.
I raised an eyebrow at the phrase take care of, and asked if it was related to his job, which was sothing I had been thinking about since we first t. Take care of as in rcenary work?
Its similar.
I wanted him to deny my suspicions, but he ekly confird them. I flinched with fright at the thought of him possibly getting hurt. Is it dangerous? I asked.
He turned his gaze towards
and shook his head. I dont engage in fights I might lose in.
In short, it ant that he didnt take on any difficult tasks. Seeing as how my life motto was to live safely, I sympathized with his words. Good thinking. Theres no need to push yourself into doing dangerous things.
At my words, he gently stared at . Im afraid I wont be able to co by for a while because of this, he softly muttered.
In retrospect, I was glad that I had clearly statedIn case of either partys absence, the employer and employee are obliged to report their locations to each otherin the contract, seeing that he had co to report his absence to . If it were anything like the past, he would have left without a word.By a while he probably ans a few days, right?
