Chapter 28
Chapter 28
Unfortunately, Letty’s dismissal couldn’t happen immediately. She returned to the estate a few days later.
During that time, I investigated how Letty had entered our household.
The head maid, the head butler, and the maids who had recommended her all claimed to know nothing. Even the resume the head maid held for Letty was flawless, even to my eyes.
Isn’t he more of a criminal than a crown prince?
I recorded the head maid’s statement and kept the resume separately.
It would be a useful card to play in the future.
When Letty finally appeared at the estate, she expressed a desire to say her final goodbyes, having been informed of her dismissal.
As I listened to her request, I wondered whether I had any reason to hear her out.
But I decided to use this as an opportunity to convey a message to Ryan—a chance to issue a simple threat.
I didn’t bother bringing Letty into the reception room. The idea of Ryan’s spy entering my space made my skin crawl.
Stepping outside, I stood before the front gate, where Letty waited.
It had only been a few days, but the atmosphere between us had changed significantly.
The cheerful face she usually wore was gone, replaced by a somewhat cold expression.@@novelbin@@
In the heavy air, she was the first to bow her head in greeting.
“I’m sorry for everything.”
There was only one thing I could say to her.
What do you think?
