Chapter 40

He would savor the time to drive Count Brumayer insane up to the brink.

He would make them hope for mercy and beg for their sins.

By the time all the entertainment would be over, he’d finally push them beyond the cliff and erase all their glory from history.

Rose had escalated the timing since she started spreading the false rumors in favor of the County.

“I will avenge your persecution by the County.”

“This is just the beginning, Laritte.”

Laritte’s heart gave a strange quiver.

Is it because she could get even with the count, whom she had served all her life?

Laritte shook her head.

“Oh my, madam. How does your skin glow so much?”

Alice and Irene praised Laritte in chorus.

“Could you get rid of these flowery scents in the tub?”

“Today’s most attractive lady will definitely be our madam!”

But they ignored Laritte as their minds were only focused on preparing their lady with their skilled hands.

Once she reappeared in her room, her soft and smooth skin left behind a pleasing scent.

“I have your dress prepared, madam.”
