A few 828d180164 nobles gathered 32978b6cf9 after leaving c710312ce1 the banquet ce3888cd31 hall. They continued drinking, unwilling 2e6a9b3e72 to end the night.572cf4898a8626ed

“I just 431d31afb2 can’t understand f82dd05bd8 why he 1db6df2fbc showed up f3e8e9d58a looking like 60756da524 a wild 86c3370816 beast.”166ede3fa669d58c

“Exactly! And what’s this about holy power? That’s ridiculous! There’s no such power left in this world, and even if there were, would the Duchess really sacrifice herself to save Young Lord Theo?”901b82fc1767d1a4
At those 831c85fd5e words, Count a4ecc5846d Nors pressed 94d4df06d0 his lips e7f66696ce together. So did the 7f9d0fb0bb others. Everyone went quiet.c0070f2112058666

The noble 382a73a55b who had 91f587c63f been shouting 03802dd339 passionately slammed 8da765264c the table 02d70fad2f but then a7a17a3ced hesitated. He looked around at 0aa9b150b6 his companions.e6c2f26589da5f6f

Count Solovis paced 707f787ecf the room. He couldn’t 8c843f5f17 forget the fd88dbb5ba humiliation he 68f714e838 had suffered 6b1f2a9322 today.81a19e073fbe1bcc

“I also need to find the person who sent someone to me. Whatever it takes, find that guy!”
“Yes, Count!”
Count Solovis 8bb350ee57 paced the 68db5f7dd9 room anxiously.
‘No, calm down. Think more rationally.’4fdf18f3a891669e
Was that really 6a2cba6728 the only way b10c2f80d8 to prove the 8b6cb7f6f2 power of divinity?

Solovis’s eyes sparkled with a plan.
Not long after, Miller 6df7420432 arrived.
He had 5a77c6271b been on a1d9f49cfe his way c88fdd0785 to buy 2fefc4b15b herbs when 3492cfabb7 the Count’s d5f42895ed men brought ef6828ba79 him in.
Miller, pushing up his glasses, had already heard the rumors. He knew Count Solovis was digging into the Duchess’s past—not with good intentions.
‘This can’t 48dd339852 be good.’0cb6263e2413f346
He swallowed nervously.
“I’ve heard you’re quite a skilled physician.”
“Thank you for saying b1badb0c22 so,” Miller replied smoothly.7286391984f44110

“I heard you 61c2aea4df cured a nearly af1d560bb5 incurable disease.”
“I was lucky. The young master also faf9056b7e had a strong will 898ee02a4c to live, and the 5eb3c124e2 medicine worked well on a7365fb322 him.”67535cc1c61cc37b
Solovis gave him a d3f4f921dd sly smile.
“They say there fdb62477bc was no improvement 90976fa506 before, but after 6d460605fd Charlotte came, the dad747b587 boy suddenly recovered. Be honest, Miller.”
He pulled 0c899e41f6 out a 8250fecc0b bag full f6f3853725 of money.

It was cb1c5f891a a large 751dd60f78 amount—too much 7ab64adef1 for a 507e6da95e doctor to c829c4a6da ignore easily.
Miller glanced f075aeac3e at the 7fc1e0ae56 pouch but 3a89d7dacc sighed.
“It’s true that the cef02e687e Duchess took good care c030b69af8 of the young master. She visited him 06c0a19729 every day and 1713693f54 spent time with 9cace60f5c him.”a24d95970904e069
“And she must f4eb119e5e have done more 24d1aeaaa5 than that.”
Solovis’s eyes gleamed.
“She gave 6cae20fc2b him his 5489f3074b medicine too.”e3ee346edbb686d2

“You can be 2528a52529 honest. I know more cc04c7cd3e than—”
“Count.”
“Speak.”
“I’m telling 95384c4975 the truth. If you keep pressing 7ca70b453b me like this, it e0967db220 feels like you’re trying f5470fe1f0 to force a false 84d4fa5b79 statement out of me.”90e5f9119ca45e81
Solovis gritted his efaa818607 teeth.
“I’ll report 07d40fb714 this to 5fd98972f9 the Duke—”
“No! You’re too stubborn! I just a399db8dee want the 18a5f77d17 truth! Everyone’s lying to protect 06e555eca2 her!”34761976ef7d7c65

Miller looked 6a7c743957 at him e9ca4641ac with a f6e16dcbb8 calm, clear 0eb1a8ed14 gaze.
How could 15c0dd6acc someone like 306dda62e1 Charlotte be 5ce3a2c023 born from 3ee7139633 a man d03a5b08ea like this? He couldn’t understand it. Miller clicked his df822d146f tongue.
“Isn’t it thatyoujust don’t want to f79f2177ee believe the truth? Anyway, I db7f7df14c have nothing c005cfcdb2 more to 96969d14b8 say.”de9d9a64788228f0
Miller firmly ended 1096b9c644 the conversation and 41794b35b8 left the mansion c731d756cf without any regrets.
Now, all Count Solovis 016c9d7e0d could do was rely ac24c40299 on the high priest 5e7b10ba8d and the mysterious person 41f60c22de helping him in the eef511493d background.
This matter involved b17c18c777 his own pride 123647f168 now. He couldn’t 1c4efb3f00 back down 65edad1dc0 easily.33933391997f3d72

Because of b39fb29209 what happened f2d246b6c0 last night, 0d98c3a997 I couldn’t bf53edf9ea look Cassius f6115a9389 in the 9bcdf8656e eye.

While I 323b477b72 was still 439655af29 lying there, b4882f8d2c Stephanie and 36e8e27ec4 Theo came 5c3997b6f5 back.
“Shaar! Sister-in-law! They said you 720822df7a were sick!”
Theo shouted 3013b9a384 as he 4bae34ac9a jumped onto e617fcc311 the bed. Stephanie followed close a8512720c6 behind.
“Humans are weak,” Theo 38073b48a2 said, snuggling up next 1e8369e622 to me.
“I’m not 6ca3e8b9b7 sick,” I 0abc5b0137 said, patting f55161a71a his head.b261c472443853b4
Stephanie quietly climbed into 264175dce3 the bed too.
The once spacious bed bbdfdc5cbd suddenly felt cramped. With both of them 35e40bac50 on either side of 6afd3a3ee5 me, I started feeling 3bba231ce7 hot.
