Chapter: 211

“T-That’s……”

The maid hesitated for a moment, and then she confessed, “I clearly saw with my own eyes that the Young Master pushed the pottery and dropped it.”

The maid’s finger was pointing at Theor.

“Theor, is that true?”

“No!”

Theor shook his head with a sad expression on his face.

Astelle took Theor by the shoulder and spoke in a sweet but clear tone, “If it was a mistake, I wouldn’t be angry. So, be honest.”

‘When we came here back then, I said clearly that you shouldn’t touch it, but……’

Theor was still a child.

It may have been broken and dropped while he touching it out of curiosity.

If it were like that, she hoped Theor would be honest, but he insisted it was absolutely not.

“It’s true. I am not lying. I have never been here today.”

Everyone’s eyes turned to the maid.

“While I was away, the Young Master came in with his dog and dropped the pottery when he touched it.”

The maid looked straight at Theor and repeated her argument again, “I clearly saw it.”

“This is where the collections of the previous emperor are located. Why didn’t you lock the door?”

When Astelle asked calmly, the maid bowed her head and trembled.

“T-That……today is the cleaning day……”

The other maid left it open for a while for her to clean.

“But apparently the Young Master dropped the pottery.”

Astelle exchanged glances with Hannah.

The maid, who was taking care of Theor, heard a voice calling her and left him, but in the meantime, the pottery in the exhibition room was broken.

The maid who was cleaning said she saw that Theor broke it.

She felt something out of the ordinary.
