Chapter 19

Laritte’s thin, long eyelashes shuddered as she opened her eyes.

What first covered her view was a colorful wallpaper and expensive giant landscape paintings.

It seemed like a place where people stored luxurious materials, which didn’t suit their house. It reminded her of the house of Count Brumayer. The place where she had lived for half of her life. She wasn’t surprised though.

The room was stuffy, but she couldn’t use her hands because they were tied back in the chair.

On the opposite side of the long table sat Rose.

“Had a nice dream, my sister?”

She sipped on the tea and smiled softly.

‘My sister.’

Laritte felt resentful as it reminded her of calling her “sister” in the Imperial Palace.

Looking down at her, she saw herself wearing a ragged dress instead of the dress of Ian’s mother. Rose might have taken it.

Meanwhile, Laritte was irritated by the thought of men touching her. She hoped, at least, this heartless sister of hers had ordered maids to change her dress.

She asked, glaring at Rose.

“Where am I?!”
“Time hasn’t passed much. Maybe half an hour after you were caught? This place is still close to the castle.”

Rose grumbled a little about missing the chance of meeting the royal family for the first time.

‘Then perhaps, Ian hasn’t broken into the banquet hall.’

Laritte thought, but Rose continued.

“Why on earth were you born in the first place?”

She meant it.

She wondered why anyone could exist in the world when Laritte had no one to care for her.

“You’ve always been a headache for me.”

White foam formed at the top.

Laritte was as useless as this to Rose.

Rose skimmed it off with a spoon. The foam on the spoon disappeared as it touched a small cloth.

“You think I was born because I wanted to?”
“Of course, it wasn’t your will. But if it wasn’t for me, you could’ve done whatever you wanted.”
“…..Rose Brumayer.”
“Hmm, you’ve grown up. Calling my name with that look on your face.”
