Chapter: 129
“May I ask how you knew?”
“Whoever sees the maid will know that she is a pharmacist.”
Astelle didn’t need to explain anymore.
Vellian asked doubtfully, “……Well……before, when Lady Marianne opened the medicine box, you noticed that the location of the medicine bottle was slightly different. I felt it at the time, but Lady Astelle really had a good memory. A little……scary.”
“I’ll take it as a compliment.”
Astelle still hasn’t lost her smile.
“I’m sorry, but I was worried about what happened before. That…… I ordered the pharmacist to check if there was any disease in the child. It didn’t mean anything bad.”
He didn’t do it with bad intentions.
He just wanted to take this opportunity to take a look at Astelle’s medicines and resolve his suspicions.
It was roughly like that.
Astelle answered coldly with a smile, “As I said before, the child is weak and needs to be fed nutrition on time. His Majesty the Emperor took him to the hunting lodge in the heavy rain without saying anything, so I have no choice but to follow him. I don’t understand that it looked weird.”
“……Yes, now I see clearly. It was a misunderstanding.”
Vellian apologized with his head down.
I don’t think he’s very sorry, but I felt like he was out of energy.
“……”
“Well, why didn’t you tell His Majesty?”
“I think Sir Vellian will be in trouble if His Majesty knows.”
“……It is.”
Vellian honestly agreed.
The emperor was very concerned with Astelle.
He’ll be very angry when he finds out that his aide has done this useless trick.
Still, Vellian wanted to see if there was anything wrong with Theor.
Half was for the Emperor’s safety, and the other half was to relieve his curiosity and unpleasant feelings.
“I didn’t know I would be caught……”
Vellian sighed as he walked slowly along Astelle’s side.
