Chapter 42

She couldn’t recognize her for a moment.

It wasn’t the poor, disheveled Laritte that Rose enjoyed bullying.

In place of a girl with hollow cheeks like that of a mouse, stood the most radiant woman in the large room.

That was not all.

Next to her stood Ian, whose eyes bore into Rose’s figure.

He was holding Laritte’s hand in a very affectionate manner.

Finally, his prey had walked right into his den.

Heaven was helping him with his revenge.

“Ah, look, my wife’s sister is here. Miss Brumayer.”

He greeted her with cold words that came crashing right at her.

Rose stepped back unknowingly.

“Ah, uh…..”

It was clear that all the rumors she had spread were now proved to be fake.

Now, as Rose would be branded as a liar, she would not receive an invitation from any known family.

She wished to hide in a rat hole right that moment.

“Miss Brumayer, I wanted to ask you something.”

Ian approached her.

“You already knew it was upon my will to take Laritte with me. But you said something against it. May I ask why you have done that?”

“Th-That’s…….”

“I can’t hear you very well. Perhaps you’ve caught a cold, Miss. Let me get closer.”

It felt suffocating for Rose with every step Ian took.

She thought it was just because of the psychological pressure on her, but that wasn’t true.

Ian was letting his mana slowly spill from his body.

This Swordmaster was capable of energizing the air around his body equal to the sword.

Rose’s eyes met Laritte’s behind Ian.

“…….”

This whole situation was unexpected to Laritte.

It was almost 10 years.

For that long time, Rose had thrown hate at her, screamed at her for no reason, and consequently made Laritte forget how to cherish herself.

But now, the tables have turned.

The Duke of Reinhardt was now on Laritte’s side, and Rose became a woman of nothing.

It was kind of funny to Laritte.

Every time she saw Rose, her shoulders seemed to shrink down, but not today.

She heaved a sigh.

‘Rose, you were just a girl of my age.’

She felt sorry for herself for having to be frightened by a girl of her age.

She was sorry again.
