Chapter: 399

“I’m sorry, I’m sorry.”

The hem of Astelle’s dress was wet from the splash of soup.

The worst thing was her shoes.

Because she was holding her skirt up while going up the stairs.

As the bowl tipped over, a lot of soup broth splashed on the front of her shoes.

‘Oh my…… I can’t go back to the ballroom like this.’

“Lady Astelle, are you okay?”

Hannah stared at the kneeling maid.

The maid lifted her head, and then she looked at Hannah’s piercing gaze and banged her head to the floor again.

Astelle asked, “Do you know each other?”

“Yes, she is the maid of the empty empress palace.”

The Empress Palace.

For the past 6 years, the Empress Palace had no owner.

However, even if it is a palace without an owner, the Empress Palace cannot be left unattended.

The maids in charge of the palace must have remained in it.

“How did you make such a mistake?” asked Hannah.

Her cold voice contained a stinging rebuke.

The maid was startled for a moment.

“Sorry, I’m sorry.”

“It’s okay, Hannah.”

Astelle, who was examining her skirt, soothed Hannah.

Interrogating the maid won’t change anything.

She didn’t even want to deal with such a reckless mistake.

“You need to change your dress. Shall we go back to the mansion?”

Seeing Hannah’s worried expression on her face, Astelle looked back to the ballroom door under the stairs.
