The moment Navia came to her senses, she opened her eyes as if she were surprised. When her red eyes focused, there was an antique ceiling.
'...was the ceiling in my room like this?'
And soon, she realized that she was in the Emerald room. It was unfamiliar because she had only used it for a few days throughout her lives.
She turned her head sideways to check the clock in the corner.
9 A.M.
Navia wrinkled her brows.
She didn't even know what day it was.
"Ha... eat shit, Wood."
Did I miss the golden opportunity I originally planned while I was unconscious?
Navia covered her eyes with her palm and looked at the black moon. Looking at the quiet black moon reminded her of the white fog that appeared.
In the middle of the fog, Navia had held Wood and continued to pull out his mana.
The red blood flowing through his lips came to mind.
"Let go-!"
His fear was clearly portrayed on his face.
"Brother, do you know what you said when I begged you to stop hitting me?"
"Let go! I said let go!"
The struggling Wood was drawn from the steam and tied to his limbs.
And she let him know.
"Why should I?"
His violence had no particular meaning.
Just.
Because he could.
Because he wanted to.
Because she's a lowlife.
Navia woke up from bed with a dry expression. First, her top priority was to figure out the situation. When she pulled the rope, a maid came in.
"Did you call?
But it wasn't Charlotte.
"Where's Charlotte?"
"Charlotte was demoted as punishment for not serving the Lady properly. I will serve you from now on."
What does Charlotte have to do with the kidnapping to be punished so severely?
Navia thought there was a different reason.
"Then where is the nanny?"
The maid replied cautiously.
"...she is in the cell"
'So Charlotte also got the Duke's suspicions after she bit Philippa.'
That's why I told you not to accuse Philippa too early. But it must have been hard to come up with a better idea when she was framed.
Navia understood the situation at once and asked the most important question.
"How long have I been unconscious for?"
"One day."
'If it's been one day, today is the day the contract is to be carried out.'
What is Edward doing right now?
At 9 o'clock, it's early, but it's also the time for him to go to work at the duchy. Navia looked at the new maid calmly.
She read quite a bit of information from the maid's attitude.
