Chapter 36
With a weak sroveled closer on her knees towards Rosetta
As she lied across the ground, accoain
Katie looked around the prison, then when it was clear that there was no one else there, she prostrated as low as she could
Even so, there wasn’t much space for anyone to see this
With a bored expression, Rosetta waited for the older wo secret It’s a great secret that could shake the Duchy No actually, more than that, it’s a secret that could shake up and overturn the entire noble society because of how shocking it is”
“…A secret that could shake the Duchy?”
“Yes, Milady I know a secret that could turn the world upside down If you get me out of here, if you promise me No, no… no, it’s… If you listen to what I have to say, you won’t be able to resist gettingthese words, the sound of rough breathing filled the dungeon
Excited by what she herself said, Katie scratched the stone floor with her blackened nails
‘It doesn’t look like you’re lying’
Observing hoorked up she was about it, Rosetta slowly opened her lips
“Are you the only one who knows this secret?”
“Yes, of course I’m the only one”
“Then how can I believe your words to be true?”
Despite accusingly asking this question, Katie’s smile couldn’t be erased fro too broadly, her chapped lips had cracked and started bleeding
In an instant, there was a grotesque sight of blood flowing down her lips
“I have proof There’s evidence to support what I say—if you let ht away If you save ”
The more she whispered, the more her eyes shone
‘What kind of secret could shake up the Duchy?’
Even when she recalled the original novel’s contents, Rosetta couldn’t think of anything
But to say that it was a lie…
‘It looks like she’s telling the truth’
While resting her head on one hand, she tapped her chin and tilted her head to the side
But she didn’t have any guesses She couldn’t even fathom what kind of secret this hen it didn’t even appear in the novel
While doubting this, Katie spoke again as if in a hurry
“Milady, you know Actually…”
Over the gloo voice resounded
Clap!
Although the voice was stopped with a sudden clap
The lips that wished to speak urgently closed because of this
And the flustered eyes turned towards Rosetta
Getting up fronored that gaze
Katie’s face, which was still in shock, was lifted along with Rosetta’s movement
“Mi… Milady?”
As the perplexed voice called out, Rosetta reached out her hand that was holding the la at the light, Katie flinched back
The chains clinked loudly and the sound echoed
With an amused expression, Rosetta looked down at Katie, then soon opened her lips
“I don’t want to hear it”
“What?”
The wrinkled forehead stretched tightly, and the head that tilted to look at Rosetta fell back with a thud towards the iron bars, her eyes glaring
Over the dark blue eyes that ide open in astonishment, the lamp’s illumination quivered
To the point that it couldn’t be distinguished whether it was the la or her pupils
“A secret that could overturn the Duchy That only you know If I don’t listen to you, you’ll forever be the only one who’ll know”
“Milady—”
“When more people know a secret, that nurow, and the less of a secret it becomes”
Wasn’t it like that?
If Katie told Rosetta this secret, there wouldn’t be a guarantee that she wouldn’t tell others, right?
A secret that could change the Duchy
Knowing a grandiose thing like that was just going to be an unnecessary burden
It wouldn’t be easy to keep such a thing under wraps
Even now, Rosetta was already carrying so e like that
And at the same time, it was a secret that didn’t appear in the novel
‘Besides, I don’t know if it’s a secret that could also shake up the Carter fa the truth when it would only be a nuisance to her plans?
It ht potentially help knock Leo down his position, but at the saht not
And especially, Katie had specifically called her for this
“So I’ht that she was feeling strange about this
And in the end, no matter what Katie did, Rosetta had no intention to save the former nanny
Even if the Duke himself would listen to this woman and would pardon her of her sins
Therefore, it was better not to listen to so that would only bother her
While she was here to hear out this woht that it would be really troublesome if a problem would arise once it was tiht as she looked through the bars, Katie hurriedly reached out to try and hold onto the younger wo chains on her ar!
With that harsh sound, Katie clenched her teeth, then she shouted at Rosetta, practically screa
“Mi… Milady! Don’t do this to ht now! Huh?!”
Her face turned blue fro
It seemed like the truth of the situation still hadn’t sunk into her
She ht that Rosetta would listen to her
How foolish, this arrogance
She had to reestion
Rosetta ca because she was curious, but what could be done here when she didn’t feel as interested as she thought she would be?
With a soft s to listen, so stop being so pathetic Just die, Katie”
Even towards Rosetta herself, the voice sounded kind
