Chapter 98: 97

“What are you saying now…”

Brielle’s aunt asked Derek again, perhaps she thought she had been mistaken for a moment.

“Aren’t you Young Master Brielle’s aunt?”

Hearing Derek’s words, Gideon and Finn stopped moving for a moment.

“…Who the hell are you?”

The next moment, Gideon was the first person who opened his mouth and asked, knowing that Derek wasn’t just doing them a favor.

 

“Kentrail Charant. He is my master.”

As soon as she heard the word Kentrail, Brielle’s aunt sat down.

“….”

Gideon also staggered and said nothing.

“You can guess why I came here. Then I’ll ask again. Who are those assassins? Why are you being chased?”

“….”

Finn didn’t say anything for a while, trying to catch her breath. Eventually, her mouth opened. It was a tone that had given up on everything.

“That would be Caveran.”

Derek flinched at that. A person who had always been cleverly deflected from the investigation. Even though he was definitely into something, there was no clear evidence to get a hold of him.

“Why would they?”

“That’s… I’d like to speak directly to Kentrail.”

“With that body?”

With Derek’s words, perhaps even Brielle’s aunt didn’t realize what she was talking about, a self-pitiful smile appeared on her face before disappearing again.

“Then, do you know that Young Master Brielle’s maternal grandfather is dead?”

They said they had been out of touch for a while, so Derek thought she probably didn’t know.

“What do you mean?”

Finn couldn’t believe it, and she asked back as she stared at Derek.

“You didn’t know. He has been dead for quite some time. In the meantime, the collateral families have been fussing. They do not know exactly what is going on, so it was for them to take their place.”

Finn’s face turned white as if she was about to faint. Gideon, who had barely regained his consciousness, gave his shoulder to her.

“The Master knew all the facts. Even the fact that you and Young Master Brielle’s mother are twins and that you switched in the middle.”

“…It’s because of me.”

Gideon, who had been silent until now, opened his mouth.

“Please, don’t blame this person for that. I found out she was getting married to another man soon, and I encouraged her to run away.”

Love with common people… That unacceptable love was the beginning of this tragedy.

“If I had known the custom of not being afraid of twins, I would have said it frankly. I realized that too late. Now that I think about it, it seems like it was also caused by a relative who was trying to create a debt for us…”

Finn continued Gideon’s words.

Still, all of that sounded like an excuse.

The news that Brielle had woken up brought the mansion back to life.

“Marie, I want some cocoa.”

“Eat the soup first.”

Marie was happy with the increased cuteness from the sick Brielle. The child began to swallow slowly as she gave the soup a blow.

“Tasty.”

“The chef took special care.”

“I see.”

It wasn’t just the chef. Everyone in the mansion tried to do their job better than usual after Brielle woke up. To some extent, the gardener planted flowers in a flower bed that could be seen in Marie’s room where Brielle was lying.

Knowing the people, he recovered rapidly day by day.

However, the culprit had yet to be revealed. He wasn’t even completely healed, so they were afraid that it would shock him.

“Young Master, look at this. I made it.”

Ellie was inventing a game by folding the paper so that Brielle wouldn’t be bored.

“Sounds fun.”

Brielle, who knew her sincerity, decided to have fun with Ellie while Marie went to get the cocoa. Even though they usually have fun playing, the two of them whispered that they should have even more fun now.

Looking at the two of them, Marie walked out of the room with a light foot.

‘If he can keep smiling like that…’

Marie then stopped her steps.

‘As expected… I have to be the bait…?’

Perhaps, she should talk to Kentrail. He would surely be against it.

Kentrail received a letter. It was the letter he had been waiting for from the North.

Taylor was waiting for his master to read it first.

“Brielle’s aunt said she wanted to see me in person.”

“It’s ridiculous. What do you mean she can only speak properly when he meets the master? Isn’t that the same as not saying anything?”

Taylor, who was listening to him, cried out in anger.

“If she wants to meet in person like that, I have no choice but to say yes. Go now and ask the mercenary that Derek was working with. The job is to bring the two of them safely from the North to here.

“Yes, Master.”

Although Taylor was full of dissatisfaction, he silently obeyed the command of his master.

“And, sent a carriage suitable for the sick.”

“…Yes? Are you going to send them a carriage?”

“What can I do? They’re not in the state of being able to ride a regular carriage.”

At his words, Taylor clicked his tongue, saying it was so shameless. It was something that Kentrail would agree with.

‘In order to escape, she turned her back on his family, and abraded our family, who was innocent.’

The letters that had contained Brielle’s aunt’s confession so far only aggravated Kentra’ils anger.

“…One more thing is written on it.”

“What is it, Master?”

“This is more important. They said Caveran attacked Brielle’s aunt.”

“What? From Caveran…?”

While he guessed that his uncle was involved, when a witness appeared like this, Kentrail’s anger grew out of control.

“From now on, by all means, gather all the information about uncle’s weakness. We’ll use it when we need it. He’ll have to pay the price for making our family like that.”

“Yes, Master.”

Taylor left the office with a grim look.

“What? You failed…?”

Caveran’s voice echoed through the mansion. He began to smash objects that stood out to him.

“What the hell can you do right?”

He already gave them a lot of money to hire them to kill them, but he was again told that they had failed to kill Brielle’s aunt. With his eyes turned over, Caveran took out the sword beside him and brought it to the knight’s neck with the news.

“You know what time it is. I’m on the verge of getting everything I want, but this happened?”

“For…give..me.”

The knight answered with his eyes tightly closed at the sword that could dig into his neck anytime.

“I don’t even want to kill someone like you.”

After collecting his sword, Caveran kicked the knight’s leg. Then, he summoned the escort that he usually has.

“Did you call me, master?”

“Get rid of this useless thing right now.”

“Sir…! Please forgive me this one time.”

The knight quickly buried his face on the floor and begged, though Caveran didn’t hear him, he just waved his arms as if it was bothering him. In the end, no one saw the knight after he was dragged away.

“There was a man with considerable skill. Who? According to the investigation, the person to whom Brielle’s aunt married was a powerless commoner…”

Caveran, with a wrinkled expression, paced around the room nervously.

After Marie brought the cocoa to Brielle, she came to Kentrail. He got up from her seat and greeted her.

“Did you eat?”

“Of course.”

“Don’t lie. I’ve already asked the chef.”

Embarrassed that she had found out her lie, he suddenly coughed and cleared his throat.

“The chef said he would make snacks a little later, so please eat that, too. Actual food.”

“Yes. Thank you for your concern.”

“What should you do to thank me?”

Marie brought her cheeks to him before he turned her face and kissed her on the lips.

“Like this.”

A pleasant smile appeared on her face. It was a laugh that finally came after a few days.

“I got a contact from Derek.”

“Really? What happened?”

“Brielle’s aunt said she wanted to see me. She seems to want to say everything in person.”

“…Didn’t you say she was sick? Is it possible to come in person?”

“I’ll make it as convenient as possible. What can I do?”

“….”

Marie let out a sigh.

“I’m worried about what to say to the Young Master.”

“Yes, we should talk. First of all, I’ll have to listen to what Brielle’s aunt has to say and tell him.”

“Yes… and…if you don’t know anything from the Young Master’s aunt…”

He looked at her who was hesitating for a while before finishing her words.

“…How about I be the bait?”

“What…? What are you saying now?”

Again, Kentrail was more angry than she had expected.

“…I think that’s the only way we can get a proper trail.”

“No need to think about it. Brielle’s aunt is also related to uncle. Everything will be clear when she comes here.”

Although he answered firmly, doubts remained in Marie’s mind.

‘Is the Count’s uncle the end of it…?’

Marie decided to do what she could.

“Then, why don’t I learn some self-defense techniques?”

He gazed at her with suspicious eyes.

“I said no.”

Kentrail spoke as if he knew what she was thinking.

“Well. I won’t do anything reckless, either. I know that it can only cause trouble. Just in case something happens.”

Despite the fact that he was concerned about Marie’s recklessness, there was nothing wrong with learning how to defend herself or wield a dagger, so in the end, Kentrail had no choice but to think about it.
