Once Maxi left for his journey.
I finally made my decision.
"Monsieur Germain." I called out to the noble focused on his book.
"Yes, Vincent?" He didn't look up, but answered to show that he was listening.
"There's something I've been meaning to ask you." Slowly I took out the folded piece of paper I had in my pocket. "Could you read this paper for me?"
Saint Germain placed his bookmark in. Closed the book, and placed it on the small table nearby.
He smiled. "Of course, Vincent."
I unfolded the piece a paper.
Worried about the answer I would receive.
But at the same time I was grateful to know that Saint Germain was willing to read the paper for me.
'Lucia, if it's possible that your true family was looking for you. I'll do whatever I can to help you meet them...' However there was something I couldn't help but wonder.
If Lucia did have a family...then why hasn't someone arrived to take her at the orphanage?
Was it possible?
That Lucia's true family didn't want her?
'If that was the case...'
I'll make sure you'll live a happy life.
Not knowing that they didn't want you.
