Chapter: 170

Before Astelle could say anything, a middle-aged woman came in.

She could know who the woman was without being introduced.

She was the wife of the Marquis of Croychen, the Minister of State, and Marianne’s mother.

Even before Astelle said hello, the Marchioness of Croychen asked, “Are you Lady Astelle?”

Astelle replied with a slight smile, “Yes, it’s been a long time, Marchioness.”

The other person doesn’t seem to remember, but Astelle met the Marchioness a few times.

At that time, the Croychen was a minor family, so there was no close conversation.

‘Even then, it wasn’t a very good impression.’

The Marchioness was arrogant and short of thoughts.

At that time, she was not an important person, so she was not popular.

“Aunt Astelle?”

The Marchioness was trying to say something more, but Theor came to Astelle.

“What’s up?” Asked Theor, holding the hem of Astelle’s dress.

“It’s nothing, it’s just a guest.”

“Who is he?”

The Marchioness carefully looked at Theor with a curious look.

“You look like Lady Astelle, are you a relative?”

Astelle replied with a smile without expressing any surprise, “Yes, this is my nephew.”

“Hello, Madam.”

Theor bowed and said hello to the Marchioness.

Astelle quickly glanced at Hannah.

“Hannah, take Theor to his room.”

Hannah quickly noticed and lowered her head.

“Yes, Lady Astelle. Young Master, come over here.”

Hannah took Theor’s hand and went outside.
