Chapter 188: 88.2

“But if no one is held responsible… what about Ellin’s death? I think I can sleep a bit more comfortably now. Bebe, I have to protect you… I’m sorry I ran away…”

In case the child would wake up, she quickly wiped away her dripping tears.

By dawn, Adelaide fell asleep quietly with Bebe in her arms.

It was as if she had fallen into eternal slumber. In her room, only more silence than before flowed.

I must have been quite tired, so I couldn’t open my eyes until Cecilia woke me up.

“My Lady, you must get up now.”

I woke up from my bed half-asleep, where my head moved at the sound of Cecilia’s voice, which sounded more affectionate today.

“Hmm…”

“You have to eat. If you’re really sleepy, how about you eat and then sleep? You didn’t have a proper dinner last night, either.”
When I heard that, my stomach growled as if it had been waiting. I smiled and slightly opened my eyes.

“Yeah, I’m hungry. I’d like to eat.”

“Alright, I’ll have the food ready right away.

After rubbing my eyes several times, I could make eye contact with Cecilia. I turned to my mom after seeing Cecilia smile like my mom.

In the meantime, my mom laid still like a pretty doll.

“Mom… Mom… Good morning!”

“…”

“Are you sleeping again? Hehe, okay. As long as Mom didn’t leave.”

I was worried that Mom would leave while I was asleep, but fortunately, my mom was next to me.

Smiling brightly, I swept my mom’s hair back smoothly.

“Mom, Mom, you know what? I had a weird dream. It was very, very sad. My mom… was talking to me in a very sad voice. That must’ve been a dream, right?”

There was no answer, but I still wanted to ask. Rather, my mom, who didn’t answer, made me feel more comfortable.

Meanwhile, Cecilia came into the room with food.

“You must’ve been very hungry, so I’ll help you eat first.”

“Okay!”

As usual, food was piled up on the table. In the meantime, Cecilia opened the window for ventilation, and a loud noise flowed in with the warm sunshine.

I hurried to the chair and shook my feet up and down.
“But why is it so noisy today?”

Warm soup was placed in front of me. Normally, there would be my colt brother or Sylvie, but today, I was the only one in the room. That made the outside noise more sensitive.

With a spoonful of soup, I looked at Cecilia silently.

“I think they found the missing item last night.”

“Are they checking their blood?”

“Yes, that’s why.”

Cecilia laughed awkwardly as she spoke roughly. It was as if she was hiding something. She cut the roast beef into small pieces and gave it to me.

“Ah, I see.”

“Yes.”

“Then I’ll go after I eat!”

“Huh?”

“Aren’t they going to check right after they find it?”

Cecilia smiled awkwardly at my question.

“That’s true, but… is that okay with you?”

“Huh? What’s not okay? I was there last time.”

“That’s true, but…”

“Don’t worry!”

It was somewhat predictable of what Cecilia was worried about, but there was no reason not to go. On the contrary, I wanted to see it properly.

“Or has it started?”

“No, don’t worry. I’ll find out when.”

“Okay!”

In the meantime, I chewed and emptied the food in front of me. As if she had waited as soon as I finished eating, Cecilia washed me and dressed me in a pretty dress.

But still, the color on her face was not good.

“Cecilia, what’s going on?”

“What? Nothing.”

“Why don’t you look happy?”

“I just… don’t want you to go through anything like a child that age, especially these things…”

She mumbled towards the end as she decided the color of the bell to tie to my hair.

“I like this! And don’t worry, I want to see it in person.”

“…If you say so, then it doesn’t matter. I’m just worried about you. You’ve been through so much for your age.”

“Hehe, don’t worry. Can I go now?”

“Yes.”

I hesitated and grabbed her hand.

Honestly, I wanted to see it in person. What in the world is Harris’s true identity? Today, I feel like I’ll finally know it.
‘And what kind of expression will Harris make when she gets kicked out…’

“Cecilia?”
“Yes?”

“I guess I’m a bit naughty.”

“All of a sudden?”

“Yes. I’d love to see… how Harris gets kicked out, hehe.”

At that, she laughed softly.
