The bad ending of an Otome game MTL - Chapter (16)
Episode 16
Isn’t this correct?
Jack scratched my cheek. But since that coffee house opened, no one other than Emily has been there, so that’s probably the correct answer.
The man affirmed with an unwilling face.
“okay. If there is anything you know, I would like you to tell me everything as much as possible.”
“Ah, old girl, she said she was sick and had been going down for months.”
The man narrowed his eyes. It looked puzzled.
Huh, the handsome and noble Na-Ri I saw for the first time anywhere else was walking around in front of the coffee house.
I don’t think I’ve leaked any information to this person who doesn’t know who the knife-like girl is.
Jack opened his mouth, feeling like he was bragging for some reason.
“No, I didn’t know that, but there was an old woman in the countryside who was paying the wages she had accumulated. But suddenly he got sick and wanted to go to the countryside for a few months to see the faces of his family. So it’s closed for the time being… … .”
“…… countryside? family?”
The man had an embarrassed face for some reason.
“What nonsense……. left?”
“Yeah, what. He said he would take a good rest for a few months and come back. In other words, I didn’t leave. The store is here too. Where would you like to go? If you look at how long they’ve been working together here, it seems they were getting paid just fine. I, but you are precious… … So, you seem to be a noble man, but what made you come to this quiet shop? He knows Emily… … ?”
Maybe even a hidden lover?
Jack reasoned hard.
Emily, who showed a strangely detached attitude, may have been dating a handsome man like us, who had nothing to do with it.
After all, if you were dating a man like that, you wouldn’t be tempted by the trinkets of candy and gifts that Jack offered.
Dark eyebrows, sharp eyes, and a strong jawline. At first glance, he was a rare handsome man with a very tall stature and hard shoulders.
But how can a lover not know that my lover is leaving the capital after closing the store for a while?
is not it? Looking at his surprisingly detached attitude, why did he just pretend to think that such a noble nobleman had no way of dealing with commoners seriously?
All sorts of thoughts ran through Jack’s head. The man bit my lip once more.
His eyes fluttered like he was thinking about something.
“…… I’ll give you an example, just in case before that… … If you ever meet Emily, I’d like you to let me know.”
“Ah yes! Yes. That’s right. me where… … ?”
“…… I wish I could tell you that the Knights of Glamis are looking for it in return for their personal favor. All you have to do is come to the Templar Headquarters and find Sir Alston.”
“Yes Yes! That’s right. Sir Alston, isn’t that Sir Laertes’ lieutenant? By the way, what is the name of the precious person… … .”
“Please.”
The man gritted his teeth and left the place.
Jack stared at the back of the man who left the seat with a little bewildered feeling.
* * *
Casio Brahmanduff really didn’t wait more than a day.
I opened the store until late that night and informed customers that it was closing due to circumstances for the time being.
Aunt Anne of the greengrocer who she often went to buy fruits smiled meaningfully and asked, ‘Are you going to see the groom?’, and with a calm face, he said, ‘I can’t even take care of myself, but the groom.’
The store had been closed for several months and there was no reason to leave, so the family in the countryside used the excuses of being sick.
It was a cliche excuse, but it worked. This is because, like me, there were not only one or two young girls who went to the bustling metropolis in search of work in the countryside.
Of course, I’m not going to go to the countryside, but to a townhouse nestled on an expensive lot in the capital, and the one I’m going to have is Countess McGinty, who is not a drop of blood mixed with me and is reputed to be a prestigious lady.
It was dawn when I finally cleaned up the store and packed my things. I lay on my stomach as if toppling over my luggage and barely slept.
In less than two hours after closing his eyes, he knocked on the door and rubbed his eyes in fright when he saw Casio Brahmanduff.
Casio Brahmanduff, who had brought a large wagon and two very strong-looking servants, skillfully led me into a wagon and loaded it with a slumbering rooster like a sleepy chicken.
When he finally woke up in the carriage, he was already facing the front door of a luxurious and unfamiliar townhouse.
I looked at the building with a little dazed feeling.
The horse was a town house, more like a full-fledged mansion. Rather than luxurious, it felt like a villa that a lady would come to when she wanted to enjoy a quiet time.
Each hedge was glistened with dew, as if it had been carefully trimmed by a gardener.
I carefully stepped on the floor to get off the carriage. hand came
“Catch it.”
The man was bare-handed. From dawn to dawn, the man’s bare hands that sparkled like well-decorated craftsmanship were a little foreign.
Without thinking for a long time, I took her hand.
It was very slightly cold. The feeling of stepping on the ground was unfamiliar.
Maybe it was time to go back to ‘Emilia’ from now, so I didn’t know it was like that.
I let go of the man’s hand and slowly straightened my back. The women and men in white and black robes in front of the front door slowly bowed their backs.
“You may already be familiar with this, but this is the young lady you will have to serve from now on.”
A well-groomed black dress and stiff collar. Cloud-white apron.
His gaze was slightly downward, but with a polite expressionless expression. They were well-educated public servants.
I slowly recited my outfit. A colorless one-piece dress with no pattern for everyday wear.
Her hair, which had not been properly groomed, and her face that had no makeup on, she had to come in a horse-drawn carriage.
No matter how you look at it, they are ordinary ordinary people themselves.
Those maids seemed more suited to ‘The Handmaiden’ than me.
However, no one harbors any doubts and merely answers carefully and politely. Casio Brahmanduff’s status here was understandable.
The man reached out to me. I looked at the man’s face, not knowing what it meant.
dark gray eyes. A faint smile, as if it was just a courtesy. Without waiting, the man took my hand slowly. It’s as if you’re going to get rid of it.
“Kitty?”
“Yes, Master Casio.”
Orange eyes with light brown hair mixed with a little orange. He was a kid who looked strangely like Dorothy.
I turned my gaze to the side, trying not to be conscious. Casio looked at me.
“Emilia, this is your dedicated maid to look after you from now on.”
“…… I beg you.”
“Thank you, miss.”
“And this is Nellie, the maid, and William the butler.”
“Nice to meet you.”
“It is an honor to meet you. We will do our best to make you feel comfortable during your stay.”
“I’m sorry I’m going to cause trouble for a long time, but please take care of me.”
A middle-aged man and woman approached me and bowed their heads politely. I said hello in a very awkward mood.
How the hell did Casio explain me? I have no official ties to the Brahmanduffs.
Casio Brahmanduff was the coveted prey of all socialites.
There were only a few minor scandals, but most of them ended up as gossip, and the only person who had a ‘serious’ discussion with him was Ophelia Windrose.
But, as everyone knows, she was someone who couldn’t be anyone’s bride.
His eyesight was famous in many ways. He had an eye for an investment that would surely succeed, and an art piece that would surely increase in value.
He was a man who cleverly hid his sincerity with a smiling face, but there were people everywhere who recognized his worth.
If the scene of a young girl from a fallen aristocratic family like me holding his hand was leaked anywhere, it was almost certain that it would occupy the front page of the newspaper at once.
An unmarried heir without a fiance will come holding the hand of an unknown maiden and make her debut. A rainy season wouldn’t look good to the family’s attendants.
However, the outward appearance of the attendants was polite and impeccable.
While I was in my thoughts, the man gently grabbed my hand.
The man walked ahead first without waiting for my reaction. I also walked along the way.
The crowd followed us quietly like a shadow. asked the butler, standing to the man’s right.
“How would you like to schedule it?”
“Is your aunt the same as you said last time?”
“Yes, you are coming home this evening.”
“Your lady will be tired, so I can rest until then and join you at dinner. Emilia?”
“Yes?”
“My aunt is coming today. Can I join you for dinner?”
“Are you with Casio-san too?”
“Then shall we go?”
…… Are you kidding me now?
I narrowed my eyes. I squeezed his hand tightly, unobtrusively.
The man wiggled one of his eyebrows. I gave strength and said again and again.
“I have always respected the prestige of the Countess McGinty, so I would be very happy if Sir Cassio Brahmanduff introduces her.”
