I Became the Assassin Family's Foster Daughter (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 17
It had been about a month since Riche claimed she saw a ghost in the library.
Blake and Deon sat facing each other inside the carriage heading toward the imperial capital.
It was because of the hunting festival taking place in two days.
Traveling from the Rodwick estate to the imperial capital by carriage took roughly eight days.
Since they would arrive in the capital that evening, it meant father and son hadn’t seen Riche for eight days.
“I’m worried about Riche.”
Blake spoke. Deon, who had been sitting with his arms crossed and eyes closed, slowly lifted his eyelids.
“She’s just faking it.”
A week ago, upon hearing that noble families with abilities and members of the imperial family would attend the hunting festival, Riche had looked as though her world had collapsed.
Ever since, she’d seemed to be plotting something with her squirrel, and two days before departure, she began feigning illness, claiming she was too unwell to attend the festival.
She really couldn’t act at all.
Deon shook his head, recalling how awkwardly Riche had pretended to cough.
“It’s better she doesn’t go. Lovenhaf will be there too.”
Lovenhaf, who had sent a letter claiming he heard bells ringing, had started sending additional letters afterward asking if he could visit the Rodwick ducal household.
Though he claimed he was exercising restraint in writing, who knew.
