Chapter 55. At my words her gaze shook.

She said in a trembling voice.

“...

The culprit was already caught 5 years ago. Executed. I also saw.”

“Right. But didn't Miss Plata also feel strange?”

When I approached one step, Milsy met eyes with me with a tense face.

“Miss Plata said saw the culprit's face. Never thought even once why only you survived?”

“That... that...”

There would be.

If not wouldn't have tried to investigate secretly alone.

“There's a person suspecting, right?”

A strange light gathered in Milsy's eyes.

Actually in the original Milsy suspects her uncle, and finally knows the truth through the contract the uncle hid.

Milsy holding the contract and going out meets the uncle, and roughly body fights with him.

In the process Milsy impulsively stabs the uncle with the knife beside.

The uncle lost life on the spot, and Milsy was dragged to prison as is.

Milsy confined in prison completes the Grin Ship blueprint, and receives pardon in return for handing it to the Emperor.

Of course due to weakening living prison life loses life a few years later.‘Can't leave like that in this life either.’ I'll save Milsy too, and will have the Grin Ship too.

I talked to her in a kind tone.

“I can help your revenge.”

“How do I trust Madam? Madam and I are people who met for the first time today, honestly such a story is flustering.”

Cut quite coldly, but couldn't hide even the shaking gaze.

“Inside the third drawer of the study. The password is your parents' death anniversary.”

“What is that...”

“Go secretly from the person you suspect. Will be able to find the evidence.”

“...”

I took out one of the earrings I was wearing on the ear and placed on her hand, then even tightly closed the fingers so as not to miss.

“If the resolve is set come to me holding this earring. I'll be waiting.”

“...”

“Just remember you're not alone. I'll help the revenge.”* * *Milsy who separated from Felia rode the carriage and returned home.

The head dizzy so couldn't stay at the party anymore.

In the midst of that amazing herself not missing the earring held in the hand.‘What on earth why...’ A lovely girl like a flower.

To the extent of losing mind for a moment at the appearance slightly smiling.

When such a girl approached and talked first was really happy.

When talking about boats other young ladies all make tired faces, but only she listened with a serious face so happy.

But why suddenly talked about the culprit who killed the parents.

The face talking in the dark garden was still innocent and lovely so exactly like a small demon coming out in a story.

A scary demon bewitching people with sweet words.

All matters feeling like a dream, but recalling the touch of the cold jewel rolling in the hand reality was felt to the extent of goosebumps rising.

Throwing away the book about boats trying to read the rest when coming home, Milsy lay on the bed and closed her eyes.

When night deepened, someone carefully knocked the door.

The current Jaod Merchant Union's merchant union head, and the uncle Trem Plata.

“Milsy, sleeping?”

No answer he naturally sat beside Milsy, and checked the complexion.

“Seemed tired from the outing after a long time. Did you see the young master of the Summerhild house well?”

“...

Yes.”

“Why is our young lady so lacking energy today?”

The uncle who more carefully took care of herself after the parents passed away.

Milsy tried not to meet eyes with him and said.

“Uncle.”

“Yes?”

“...

Why did the culprit leave me alive even seeing me?”

“Asking such a thing again. Probably lacked time until killing you.”

He kindly stroked Milsy's hair.

“I think fortunate even you lived.”

“...

Really so, uncle?”

No, the man had enough time to kill herself.

The first 1 year just fell into the sadness of the parents passing away and couldn't think anything. 2 years passed, 3 years passed and the sadness gradually subsided and could think rationally.

The incident had not one or two strange points.

How did the culprit secretly enter the house avoiding the servants' eyes?

How could find the parents' room so accurately?

Every time such doubts arise and asking, the uncle just cuts with ‘A crazy person's thoughts aren't something we can guess’, or ‘Probably coincidence’.

Even without seeing the evidence the Duchess Valfruga said seemed would know.

Because the one who gained the biggest benefit after the parents passed away was the uncle in front, Trem Plata.‘Want to kill.’ The letter knife sparkling on the desk was visible.

If stabbing the vital point at once might be able to kill.

Milsy tried hard to suppress the impulse and closed her eyes.

Only the evidence the Duchess Valfruga said continuously circled in the head.* * *“You what losing the earring going to a party?”

Again.

Jacques already for several days, scolded me how can lose the earring.

“Because many people can be like that.”

“No, still what earring...!”

“I lost my earring so what relation do you have?”

“No, why relation...!”

Jacques who was saying panting whether thought correct words lowered the voice.

“...

None though.”

“Right?”

Whether the words were blocked, Jacques who was kicking the furniture with his foot suddenly asked.

“Hey, then if receiving a new earring will you lose that too?”

“That I don't know either.”

“Aish!”

Jacques suddenly stood up abruptly and roughly swept his hair.

Looking with eyes of why is that kid suddenly doing that, Jacques shouted abruptly.

“Hey!”

“Yes?”

“Don't know, just receive this.”

Jacques threw a small box at me.

Receiving in a daze and opening, an earring decorated with red ruby was visible.

“What is this?”

“Picked up on the way so you take it, or not.”

“Picked this up on the way? Then have to find the owner.”

Seems whoever tried to gift and dropped with a ribbon hanging.

If carelessly picking up what fell on the roadside trouble arises. If wrong might be framed as a thief.

At my words he “Aish” and swept his hair up with one hand.

“Just take.”

“No, from the beginning why give me what picked up on the road?”

Trying to hand the box to him again, he shouted abruptly.

“Ah, you said lost the earring!”

“What. You surely...”

I smiled playfully.

“Gifting because I lost the earring? Yes?”

Jacques's face heated bright red to the ears.

“If dislike put out again!”

Jacques trying to snatch the box from my hand, I tightly hugged the box and hid.

“Who said dislike? No. Thank you. I'll do well.”

Probably the parents made do, but a gift received from the sub male lead.

This was really precious.

“Just try losing again carelessly.”

All good but that mouth was the problem.

Even giving a gift didn't give a gap for a person to think gratefully at all.

Seeing in the original also couldn't properly give a gift even once to the female lead and awkward, seems the innate personality can't be helped.

At first just like a not fully grown kid, but living together the appearance seen in the original popped out suddenly.‘Really seems like watching a celebrity.’“What will you do if losing?”

“Are you declaring war saying will lose now?”

“No. Just saying the words are like that.”

Noisily teasing Jacques for a long time, Bella looked for me.

“Madam, a guest has come.”

“Yes? Who?”

“Miss Milsy Plata. Said picked up the earring you lost, shall I guide?”

Came.

As expected the eyes seen at the end wasn't an illusion.

“Tell I'll go right away.”* * *Milsy faced in the reception room whether suffered a lot in the heart in the meantime the complexion wasn't good.

“...

Saw the evidence you said.”

Milsy omitted the greeting and muttered.

I quietly listened to her story.

“...

A contract between the uncle and the Jaod Viscount. If killing our father will give the merchant union to the uncle.”

Milsy buried her face in the palms.

“Wanted to bring the contract right away and accuse. Then that thought arose. Is it really okay with that? If accusing can the Jaod Viscount receive punishment? Already an incident ended 5 years ago so easy to handle, and might kill me to silence. At that time, recalled the words Madam said.”

Milsy shed tears and looked at me.

“Said will help my revenge, right?”

“Right.”

“I want to take everything that person has! Our parents' merchant union, honor, life! All!”

“I'll help. So that what you lost, all can return to your hands.”

“...

What do you hope from me? No way will help me without a price.”

“Because I covet you.”

“...

What?”

“I covet your talent. Hope you work for me.”

“I only know how to make boats.”

“Right. That's what I hope.”

I picked up the earring she put on the table.

“I'll help your revenge. Instead hope you loyal to me, and work for me. Can you?”

She clung to my hand with a desperate face.

“If Madam really helps my revenge I'll do as told. I'll work for Madam. Whatever that is I won't betray you. So please...”

I held her hand and said.

“Don't worry. Your enemy, and even the merchant union you had to inherit. All. I'll return to your hands. So speaking there's something you have to do for me.”

“What?”

The voice of her who abandoned hesitation was filled with strong will that can do anything for revenge.

“Please say completed the Grin Ship.”
