After reading the words on her palm, she hid the joy of bursting and took the tableware. She thought she could get out of this hellish mansion at last, and even tears seemed to come out.

Now she and Isis were leaving for Croa, would rebel, and she vowed to kill the stupid Crown Prince and the vulgar bitch. She was about to leave the room with her head down, and the guard at the door called Mielle.

"Wait a minute."

Her whole body stiffened with a feeling of her heart pounding. The guard asked Mielle, who was in a cold sweat and froze.

"I think the mealtime today is earlier than usual."

"... Is that so? I just brought it as I was told..."

Otherwise, it was a high, thin voice, but it was like a child's, as she created a higher and thinner voice, to hide her voice. So she thought she made a mistake and bit her lips tightly, but the guard, who was thinking for a while, nodded.

"Really? Go. You have to get some water, right?"

"Yes, yes..."

As soon as permission fell, she hurried down to the first floor, and Cain who looked anxious was standing at the front door of the mansion. Mielle, who roughly laid down the tableware on the floor, hurried to him.

"Brother... No, Ma, Master."

Then, as usual, she tried to call Cain, but she looked around and corrected it. It was an empty hall with no one in it, but just in case.

"You're here. A carriage from the Duke family is waiting."

Then the nervous Cain clasped Mielle's hands. Mielle was stubborn and there was no way to help otherwise, but he seemed to worry about letting her sister, who had not yet grown up, go.

"... I've packed it up, just in case. Take it and use it when there's an emergency."

The pouch Cain handed over was full of expensive jewels. Isis was not going to make a fool of her because Isis had already been under threat by her letter, but Mielle felt more secure than leaving the mansion without anything.

"Brother..."

She had always swallowed her anger because he was not helpful, but she felt strange to be seen off like this. She hugged Cain once and quickly left in a prepared carriage right in front of the mansion.

It was sent by Isis. The carriage seemed to head straight for the Duke mansion, but then turned around and arrived just outside the capital. So, with uneasiness, as she carefully stepped out of the carriage at the order of the driver, two large, sturdy-looking carriages were waiting for Mielle.

One was a carriage for Isis alone, and the other was a carriage with maids and luggage. Isis, who got off the wagon upon Mielle's arrival, greeted her with a gentle welcome.

"Ms. Isis...!"

"Lady Mielle. I've been waiting. Did you have a hard time?"

"No, no! This is how Ms. Isis helped me!"

Like menacing and intimidating people, what they really wanted to ask each other was a deep-seated, pretentious smile. Isis wrapped around Mielle's shoulders and guided her to her carriage.

"I was about to leave. I'm not officially married yet, so I'll leave secretly. You know that, right?"

"Sure."
