Chapter 42

Marie stood by Ellie's side.

Things have changed from before. A sense of guilt followed that she should have been a little more careful. Although she said she had no trauma, Marie was concerned that there would be.

Without Eujes there, Ellie would have been kidnapped. She felt like her heart would burn just by making that assumption.

The door opened and Kentrail came in.

He had just heard about the situation from Derek. Thankfully, even though Derek had a wound on his arm, it wasn't too serious.

Derek was genuinely sorry and apologetic for Ellie's collapse.

"Marie."

"Count..."

Kentrail placed his hand on her weeping shoulder and patted it.

"Who's behind it?"

"One is captured. It's just that he's unconscious, so we'll have to wait for him to wake up to find out."

"It's because of me. I put Ellie in danger..."

"Why is that your fault? Rather, it's because of me."

"No. How could that be the Count's fault."

It was because the original Marie accepted their offer. There was no one who could be resentful in the mansion now.

"Do you have the letter Ellie received?"

"Yes, please wait."

Marie got up from her place and walked over to Ellie's desk. There were the letters in a small box.

"This is it."

The seemingly cute letters were written by children at that age.

"The physician was surprised, though he said she would wake up soon."

"Yes. But, I'm worried about the after-effects. I wonder if it might make her afraid to even go out."

"I will do my best so that there are no aftereffects."

She nodded her head at his words.

"How is the Young Master?"

"Whoo. It's a wind of tears."

Knowing that Ellie had collapsed, Brielle cried so much that Kentrail wondered if his nephew might also collapse from dehydration. No matter how much he consoled Brielle, it was no use.

[ "What if Ellie collapsed because I was mean? I mean, I didn't mean what I said." ]

Before Ellie left, Brielle acted angry that she was going out alone. And, then he said to her to do whatever she wanted.

That was what remained in his mind.

"I have to go."

"Don't worry. You need to be by Brielle's side."

Her heart was heavy at the thought of Brielle weeping, but Marie couldn't go, lest Ellie would wake up when she wasn't there.

"Yes, is Teacher Eujes gone?"

"He wanted to see Ellie wake up before leaving, so I led him to a guest room."

It's already late. Thankfully, he was worried about Ellie and seemed to be staying here.
