Chapter 37

Was she Rosetta, the nanny asked

At the unexpectedly sharp question, she rolled her eyes

A peal of laughter burst out

In all these years, there were only two people who had ever noticed that she was a fake, and the first one noticed because they’d been with her while she was growing up

Of course, it see?

As Katie continued to heave, Rosetta just laughed without answering

There was chaos like no other

The chains jangled on the ground with a heavy sound, and the sound of gasping breaths along with airy laughter rang through the air

Watching Katie heave like that for a long time, Rosetta erased her smile andthe older woh… uh… urk…”

Because of the tight hold on her chin, all the words that her mouth tried to spit out were crushed

Even so, well… ‘Saveto be one or the other

Her eyes, which ide open as though they’d pop out of their sockets, were shouting for help instead of her lips

The older worapple at Rosetta’s wrist, trying to get her hand off

Whatever

Agh Uh Urk

There was a heavy sense of fear as the repeated groans ensued Tears began to flow out of her eyes

In the darkness, the tears that flowed in strealance

Like tears of blood—like a curse that Katie was pouring unto Rosetta

Katie’s face flinched under her grasp as though she wanted to shake her head The firmly held face was calm only on the outside

With a bitter siven

“Who am I?”

Katie’s chin was pulled down, to the extent that the top of her head was down and the back of her neck was completely visible

Then, the back of her neck was struck, at the pressure point that would prevent her fro that spot, it was the end of their conversation

Instead of screa, Katie’s body went into a spasm as she breathed out heavily without any sound fro the sinner fall unconscious, Rosetta clicked her tongue

“People ue was cut off”

When the hand that was supporting the older woo, her body fell down sideways helplessly

And Rosetta rose to her feet without a sound Her long cloak fluttered on the floor

After straightening her back, she left the dungeon just as silently as she entered it

The la behind her dancing dangerously On that cold evening, one secret disappeared forever

Knock, knock

Leaning against the bed’s headboard and looking out the , Cassion turned his head as he heard the small sound

The door was there to block his view, but he could guess as standing at the other side

Because there was only one person he aiting for

Creak

Even without an answer to the knock, the door opened In the first place, the person on the other side didn’t intend to wait for an answer

Their eyesa lamp, Rosetta looked at hih the door

Between the roouous boundary and looked back at Cassion

He greeted her first

“Co was terrible in its aardness Even so, with a light chuckle, Rosetta entered the roohter, the sound of the door closing echoed throughout the room

“You’re awake Have you eaten?”

As she spoke, Rosetta placed the lamp on the table and her cloak on the backrest of a chair

Cassion observed her movements as she set down the lamp and the cloak, then he opened his lips to speak

“I already ate What about you?”

“Yes,patient’s radually walked towards the bed

Her steps were quiet on the floor, as though she was tiptoeing in the dead of the night, trying not to wake a sleeping person

Watching the woman approach him slowly, Cassion suddenly recalled what happened earlier

When he pretended that he didn’t know she was there

Fro himself about why he pretended to sleep He still didn’t have an answer

He couldn’t believe that he didn’t even know the reason behind his actions Really, it was a laughable thing

While Cassion was lost in thought, Rosetta continued to draw near hirew closer, the appearance of the approaching person could be seen er hidden in the dark, the scent on her body permeated the air

Cassion had been absent-ht him back to his senses

A clear expression A distinct scent

Rosetta should have had a strange, subtle scent of roses, just as she did before

Wasn’t that why he noticed that the person visiting him earlier was her, even with his eyes closed?

The fragrance of roses

But right now, it was different
