After that encounter, Jennette wasn't able to respond to any of his answers in the end
To be honest, she wasn't expecting her husband to be a year older than her but she did expect a man in his thirties to be her husband
' mostly the marriages contracts of what I read in books was about a man in thirties and a 11 years gap lady ' Jennette thought still in disbelief
" I should apologize for what I thought of him " she said in worry, Jennette then sat on her chair
She then felt shuffling at her bed, she turned to look only to see an awake Lewell
" you shouldn't move just yet!! " Jennette worrily said, trying to convince lewell to lay down at her bed
" how can I, a mere servant lay at their master's bed " lewell coldly replied, she didn't want to but she has to convince Jennette after all they are in the agriche
One wrong mistake, death will be given upon
" Miss, if I've been seen like this.. The head master would strictly lecture you " she continued " then I shall take my leave "
" ah yes... " after that lewell slept on the maid chambers that was given by the butler, her room was the farthest from the other maids
(A/n: obviously, lewell was given the farthest one bc of her face that was given by maria)

Jennette sighed, she didn't know what to do to make others feel happy with her presence but everytime she tried they will always act annoyed
' I don't know what else to do.. '

" what are you thinking about so deeply that is making you sulking here, jennette?? " Roxanne asked out of nowhere, making Jennette jump slightly by the sudden reveal
" a-ah sister Roxanne it's nothing to worry about " she shrugged off, but roxanne didn't budge and smiled
" Jennette, if it was nothing you wouldn't be sulking or in a gloomy mood "
' if something bothered her to the point of biting her nails, they should at least receive death ' Roxanne thought, patting jennette's head who was confused by the sudden contact but went on with it
" there would be a festival tomorrow so why don't we go there tomorrow if you have some free time? "
" I'm okay with it!! " jennette's eye started to sparkle at the sudden thought of going out
[ which she didn't get to experience back then bc of a certain someone ]
|| next day ||
" eh- "
" eh? "
" why are you here? " Jeremy suddenly asked, in disbelief seeing his fiancee at the festival and also at the same spot where Roxanne said to meet
" Sister Roxanne said to meet here... " Jennette answered, still processing about what's happening
" but Roxie said the same thing to me also... " Jeremy ruffled his hair, also processing about what's happening right now
" don't tell me.. "
"..."
"..."
" she setted us up.. "

" those two would get along well right? " Roxanne muttered, cassis who heard was curious about what she meant decided to ask her
" what do you mean by 'those two'??? "
" the two birds that were born separately and raised differently were suddenly destined to be together but one was a scared little bird who knows nothing about the world who will follow even a criminal just to be saved, and the other was a bird who was identified as the unloved monster... Who yearns to protect the scared bird even to death but just needed the trust from that bird..." she said " would they even have an happy ending by those mistakes they are making? "
"... " cassis didn't answer, he doesn't know what she was saying nor does he want to know but he had a hunch that it was about her brother and his fiancee
