Chapter: 166 Solution

After leaving the office and parting from the chief maid, I decided to return to the VIP room.

Then, on the way, I encountered this butler of the Vandyne family.

When the butler stares at me,

"Why is a commoner child walking in such a place? It seems you haven't stolen anything yet."

He looked at Tauro's whole body and confirmed.

"I wonder? I just might steal something while returning to the VIP room. Will you follow me?"

I sarcastically replied to this elderly butler.

"Don't you know how to speak? Ha commoners! I'm the lead deacon of this Marquis Vandyne household!"

" For now, right?"

"What did you say!?"

The butler turned red and tried to grab him, but Tauro lightly evaded it.

Guided by the chief maid, the guards came in there.

"Mei, what is the meaning of this! What do you mean by bringing the Kingsguard in! I'll tell the mistress, do you think you’ll go scot-free !?"

The butler approached the maid chief Mei while cursing.

"You’re in the way, please move. I don’t care about being pardoned anymore."

The chief maid glared at the butler sharply.

Then the guards behind her stepped in between the chief maid and pushed the butler aside.

"Let's hurry, you too"

She urged Tauro to go to the VIP room.

The butler tried to stop them, but one of the guards restrained him.

Then the chief maid and Tauro lined up and headed for the guest room.

"-So, that's what Uwakin did on his own, so I’m not involved. And I' won’t try to kill my real daughter, that's scary ... Aeris blames me, the parent, without any proof? How pitiful, poor me and my newborn baby ... "

In the VIP room, the quarrel between the Marquise and Aeris continued.

The Marquise tries to entice sympathy with her exaggerated acting, and if she’s denied, she shifts responsibility to someone, and then “where’s the evidence?” She says.

Aeris was once again keenly aware of her real mother's lack of affection for herself.

This woman's affection has always been directed only to one person, herself.

Even Uwakin, her lover, is useless to her now that he is dead. She blames him for her murder, but she does not even mention Uwakin himself.

" You hold the evidence, don’t you, mother? "

Aeris said coldly.

"What are you talking about?"

The Marquise naturally replies in a blur.

"My repeated kidnappings and assassination failures. There’s no way you would have disposed of the contracts asking for the return of the contract money paid to the assassination guild."

"I wonder what you mean by evidence from a while ago. Immediately after that person died, You started to blame me ..."

"It's because you brought the man you were having an affair with into our home the day after my father's disappearance!"

"Oh, that's a terrible accusation. And I’m your parent too ... Uwakin just comforted me when I was heart broken."

"Don't twist things conveniently! The butler's and serfs, who had served for many years, were dismissed because they pointed it out, and were getting in your way!"

It was when Aeris stood up as her anger peaked at the villain in front of her,

Tauro, the chief maid Mei, and the guards came into the VIP room.

"What's this, the chief maid! Who allowed you to enter the room?"

"These are the contracts with the assassination guild that shows all your crimes, including the kidnapping of Marquis Vandyne, the kidnapping of Aeris, her attempted assassination, and my attempted assassination.

Tauro said that and showed the document out of the Magic Storage.

"That ... no way ......... it's a fake! The real thing is in the safe? The key is here!"

She took out the key from the hidden pocket of her dress and showed it.

"That remark also supports the evidence. They are genuine documents that came out of the safe .... Everyone, please."

The kingsguard knights nodded and grabbed both arms of the marquise and took her out of the room.

"Aeris, help me! It was just that little devil—! Please ──"

The distant voice echoed in the hallway of the Vandyne family mansion.

"... This is the end."

Aeris, who was at the peak of his anger, sank into her chair as if the air had escaped.

"... Yeah. Now you’ve regained the Vandyine family."

"Yes, Aeris-sama. I've been waiting for you to return."

Mei, the chief maid, walked up to Aeris as she shed tears that she had been putting up with.

"Sorry for the hard work, Mei!"

When they hugged each other, they cried aloud.
