Chapter: 295

The fatigue she had endured came flooding in. Her head was dizzy.

The Marquis opened the door and entered the parlor where Astelle was.

She looked at her grandfather and stood up from her seat.

“Grandpa.”

“Are you okay? Your face is pale.”

The Marquis clasped Astelle’s hand and patted her as if to reassure his granddaughter.

The familiar warmth calmed her heart a little.

She checked the doors and windows.

Everything was tightly closed.

“That assassin……”

And she told her grandfather what she had seen.

“His face was familiar. He was definitely someone I knew.”

“Could your father……”

Astelle nodded.

The Marquis’ eyes trembled in shock.

What happened in the forest was obviously Astelle’s father’s work.

The Marquis lowered his voice and became angry.

“Were the assassins sent by your father trying to kill us as well?”

“My father doesn’t care about that.”

‘Because he is always only thinking of himself.’

Knowing Astelle was there, he didn’t even care. Her existence was rather annoying, so he might have told his men to kill them together.

Astelle suppressed her annoyance and looked at reality.

Her father tried to kill Kaizen.

What will happen when that fact is revealed?

Astelle herself was the daughter of the Reston family, even if she had been expelled.
