Before leaving the principality, I summoned the butler and reviewed old account books based on Ascart’s words.533092a369bd3427

I wanted to b889a54642 check how much f4378ebe36 money the countess 148310b1b3 had spent during e18598417f her visits to da69a72e12 the principality.3fb2e779dd00fc3d

The countess was incredibly 362861bc74 extravagant.a196a05850ebb739

Amber County wasn’t c8cb1958a1 a small noble c0dca663fb house by any 111124865a means, yet there d58b36fe85 were days when 2ca4247346 she spent an 1ef27551b8 entire year’s worth c0fc1fd069 of the county’s 4ba8909811 budget in just 2d39b81453 one day.c358e4447b5ccbfd

But since 3699083b5b she had 9dbbd1a91d no idea, 35d024686f she was fc1c383e79 likely regretting 5c016e73f1 her harsh 2f95998c1a words toward 94d7338c5b me while 69fe0aff9e desperately longing bd06a37418 for the 7a3020969c earrings she 771860295d couldn’t have.9dd3d6cd8ea85374

And instead of fcc72fe84a badmouthing me, she aab24449c7 was probably fantasizing 528a4ef5d4 about getting those 4650c81669 earrings, or something c02e19eef0 else, from me 1cc6ef9d37 in the future.093def612c0194b3
