Louis shook off the hand of a servant from his face and sprang up and went upstairs. Matthias had touched Louis, but not very often. Now that Rowena was gone, he didn’t even know that he had changed his target to Louis.

If your father pays attention to me, the arrow will move to one of the servants.

Paul was a bad father, but he wasn’t a complete piece of crap to Louis. Louis was good-looking, so he wouldn’t let Matthias do it his way.

The corner of the letter in the blackened ashes was clearly marked with the royal pattern.

Already, this family had no connection with the royal family. The engagement broke down, and the responsibility of the Marquis of Wenson was lost due to Rowena’s intervention.

Then…!

Could it be that Lady Rowena had sent a letter from the Imperial Palace? No one else but Lyria will be worried!

After making such a guess, Anna looked at the marquise’s attendant when she was free. He was a man with a heavy mouth as a servant of the marquis, but when she threatened him moderately, he seemed to be intimidated.

“No matter how much the Marquis ordered, it’s from the Imperial Household! If the letter is burned without showing it to the person to whom it should be received, will that be wise?”

“W-what are you talking about?! What did I burn…?”

Anna knew almost everything he did, such as the marquis’ errands and burning letters. And that he sneakily checks on the content.

“In the end, my lady will meet the one who will become the crown princess, and she will ask about the letter… Do you think you can escape? Who do you think will take the blame?”

Peter’s thoughts rolled around Anna’s long explanation. Knowing the temper of the Marquis of Wenson, he also knew that he could not protect himself.

It was he who ordered the letter to be burned, and it was clear that the servant stole the letter and read it on his own before burning it.

“Well, if I tell you the contents of the letter, I’m okay, right?

Peter changed his tone and said to Anna. Anna grinned thoughtfully.

“All you have to do is deliver the content!”

“There wasn’t much to it…”

“He said that the Lady would stay in the palace until the engagement ceremony was held and that she was safe without any serious injuries. She also told her not to worry because the crown prince was very kind and nice to her.”

You’re so mean!

Anna walked upstairs cursing Marquis Wenson who ordered the letter to be burned. When he saw a letter from the palace to Lyria, he said that it was the marquis who first read it and then ordered him to burn it.

No matter how easy Rowena was, she was the future crown princess, but he was going too far.

“Miss! We’ve heard from Rowena!”

Anna said after knocking on the door. Lyria, who was crouching by the bed crying, looked back at her with red eyes.

“Rowena? Did I get a letter?”

“It’s…”

Anna explained the whole story. Lyria was very upset that she hadn’t even gotten a hello letter from Rowena. The letter came a few days prior so Rowena seemed to have informed Lyria of her condition before her family.

They’re family, well… You have to worry about Lady Rowena.

A family worse than others would be referring to them. The youngest, Louis, seemed cute when he was young, but as he grew up, he became obsolete.

How many times did Lady Rowena get hit by Matthias while she was covering for him?

Still, Lyria once said she hated violent people so she tended to refrain from being near Lyria.

“Yes, Rowena is safe… I’m glad she’s okay.”

The engagement was supposed to be informal, so most aristocrats couldn’t attend. The wedding would be a little different, but Rowena wouldn’t bother to invite Lyria.

Because she was buying her time to run away.

From the hairstyle to the dress to the body, Rowena said that she should not be left behind.

Lyria glanced at the closed door and held Anna’s hand.

Anna meanwhile, looked at the timid little girl sitting on the floor, burying her face in the bed and weeping. She clicked her tongue.

“… In a few days, he’ll quit his job.”

“I know.”

“Shouldn’t you quit, too? Staying at the Marquis could be a challenge.”

Anna looked anxiously at Lyria and said,

“Lady Rowena isn’t here, so if I leave you, how are you going to make all the preparations by yourself?”

If Rowena was still living next door, she would provide the necessary supplies, but now she wasn’t around.

“I’ll take care of that. If I quit too close to the date you ran away, I think your father would chase after you.”
