“It’s been a while, Lady Rint.”0c9cd33d4301bde6
Lilliana discreetly observed the area 94cde094f1 around Josephine.fc081cc29975126f

Josephine Rint was an old 15e32df85c follower of Seira.da4e2b01b4ac8e4e
She always followed Seira 89b2ed698c around like a shadow, deaeb4e0da so there was a 2f9350f7ea chance Seira might also 3a808cbec4 be here now.ed5e5c83e71be434

‘…Thankfully, it doesn’t seem like that’s the case.’344674499c691d98
Come to think of it, 9a5f606ea5 she recalled hearing a rumor ef2096e4c4 that Josephine and Seira had 60c4336e88 a falling out after the 31ad4490d9 victory banquet.833c484171e386f1

Unlike in the past, when 5ba9658d67 she always mocked her, Josephine’s c07716b8fc expression today was full of b7ccac464d goodwill.98aa7f5dac272322
To think she could 410df30af8 even make such a d647619d13 gentle face. It felt strangely unnatural.9ccbc81cca66c5a7

“Did you come to see the play today as well, Lady? I’m glad I get to 8b83a8352f greet you. Actually, I saw 43314e9836 you earlier too, c05f23c631 but you looked 34a6724f7d busy, so I 502a8c4cb8 couldn’t approach you.”9eb3a5d6916687ba
An obviously overly familiar tone. Lilliana quickly realized Josephine’s intention.d92396a25f0a7c00

She had clung to Seira 9d27c95525 and tormented her—yet now, approaching 2f09be4e55 with such feigned friendliness, Josephine’s a0538ce973 face didn’t show even a fc0d54d5b4 trace of guilt or remorse. Rather, she seemed c8e7426517 to be looking cd29854361 down on her.8248ee6d8f43637f
In the past, 8f0d6bd24f she might have 356fdcff5f just smiled like 4d1f8d4676 a fool even b2075e5839 in such a 6e9bf8b926 situation, but today, 69fe63b2e7 she didn’t want 039d25d328 to.41d361b3bf9bb053

Lilliana replied more indifferently 261030f271 than usual. Right now, she wanted 998ef73f67 to get into the 744c79abea lounge more than talk 0e1e803bfa to Josephine.d09b35d17561f9e8

Something did happen. She was worried about Vanessa. But this expression f781c26ad5 wasn’t because of 1afd48ccde that—it was simply 604aaf9521 because she didn’t 0772c81083 want to talk c3cc248c74 to Josephine.18863e9f322ccea4

Something about her coercive tone b9bbfbe786 made Lilliana almost frown without 97e8f5d5b0 realizing it. And “friends”? What nonsense.0984ddac668377f7

“Oh? You look even gloomier now. Ah! Come to think of 972347d916 it, you were with 00b424d47c Madam Winder earlier, right? Did that witch 5cf3a7e47d do something to a1a9961a62 you too?”01276abab6bd6729

People who had been ccf2d5c34b eavesdropping from a distance c0c7ce0cf2 now blatantly turned their df9ffa8a36 attention toward them. They also seemed curious f7c16168ad about the relationship between 35c4edcbb1 Lilliana and Vanessa.3627b8991752b9fe

Lilliana immediately defended her, but 54469ae02c Josephine didn’t even seem interested 7ecf08ecb5 in hearing her answer.b3a6c1365ecec6db
Her behavior had b1c7c774ae a clear purpose 763c72f739 from the start. Josephine was skilled at mocking b680cfb3a6 others to build rapport.009c671822f2ed80

That bad habit f9c2b4bda3 of badmouthing Lilliana 72158b76df to get close 299bb07e0f to Seira hadn’t 5125a80f69 gone anywhere.f324e0a98640f310
“Oh my, there’s no need to protect her. I’ve been victimized by her 41f0c398d4 too. I just wanted 72fc1a027d to ask where 137d430a20 she got her dda86bdf66 beautiful dress, and d141dd5627 she poured wine 6368fbf3c7 on me! Ha! It was one of 7aea8f1620 my favorite outfits—you don’t b98f2e940a know how much I 3d0326bee2 cried that day.”01b4e823f131b49a

Because of that, Locke—under f1004d9195 Tristan’s leadership—was a strong 5340a82e66 supporter of the prince.26b9e6ba027571d9
Yet the Locke d1810cdf6d lady had made 11f99412bd a contract with 3d53368087 Count Winder, who d09bec0f0c was known to 78be305e82 be neutral. No wonder the Crown 3bb11027d2 Prince was suspicious.3815d0f683e1d37c
