Blinking her eyes, she looked at the ashcolored rabbit doll held like a hostage in his hand.
Because his hands are big, the small rabbit doll looked even smaller and pitiable. It looked like something that needed to be rescued, as it was held like that…….
“Start making them in the office from tomorrow.”
“I have written all the answers……. Hasn’t the suspicion been cleared yet? You said you met President Roeagal.”
Cassard frowned at the extended response to being told to make them in the office. When Cassard withheld his answer, the woman hesitantly asked again.
“And…… When can I get the necklace back…….”
“I think I said I’d give it back if you behaved cooperatively.”
Although she hadn’t been particularly uncooperative, she hadn’t been extremely cooperative either. Pointing this out, the woman approached him chattering.
“I have been cooperating. I’ve written the answers diligently, and I didn’t run away even though the handcuffs were not locked……!”
The woman was right. Cassard, having scanned the answers, recognized that her answers matched with the statements of Roeagal, the nuns of the monastery, and the patients, and he admitted that it was unreasonable to treat her as a suspect anymore.

Furthermore, the security force had botched the investigation.
The security force members were dispatched from the Royal Correctional Bureau but were strictly under the jurisdiction of the lord.
But after completing the territory inspection with the clergymen and going to fix the security force members, all the members related to the case were already captured by the royal family, and he could only confirm that the current members were replacements.
Did Attila make the first move, not wanting to be reprimanded for a poor investigation? He knows I hate it when he sneaks things out like this…….
Or did Attila also notice something? For example, why Emperor Phobegen, who was robust despite dementia, suddenly died of a heart attack.
But what offended him most at this moment was the last sentence she had written in the document.
“Enough to not interfere with living…….”
The monastery is outside the jurisdiction of the royal family and the lord. Therefore, it was natural that Cassard, who was not the lord at that time, couldn’t find the woman no matter how he searched Lindcoem.
After that, he couldn’t even attempt to find her unless it was during a break, as she disappeared without a trace, completely forgetting about him.
At first, he thought it was a lie, but on reflection, she had no particular reason to lie. Rather, clinging to their past connection and appealing to his emotions would be more advantageous for her.

The fact that she forgot only him irritated him. He wasn’t trying to revive the memory for anything, but it was despicable and ungrateful.
“I’ve already told you how to get out of here. Don’t leave my side for a moment. I’ll return the necklace if you keep your promise.”
[Star Icon][Star Icon][Star Icon]For Nemed, it was the last holiday, with the completion of law school at Merton College, Corb’s prestigious university, just around the corner. With such a son in front of him, the father was nervously shaking his leg.
“Something seems to have gone wrong. Scathach is not the type to be absent without notice…….”
“Why are you worrying so much? Maybe she’s sick?”
Not knowing what errand his father had given Scathach, Nemed spoke nonchalantly, and Roeagal sighed as he looked at the suddenly clear sky.
Somehow, the weather was gloomy; maybe something had happened.
“I wish that were the case.”
Since his father’s anxiety was unusual, Nemed was the first to speak.

“I’ll go check.”
Nemed went straight to the Paione Monastery to find Scáthach. Before entering the monastery, he already felt that something was wrong.
The inside of the monastery was under church jurisdiction, and for that reason, security officers were surrounding the monastery building, not allowing anyone to enter carelessly.
When Nemed came to the monastery, one officer approached him and started asking if he knew the woman named Scáthach who lived here, what their relationship was, and probed into various things.
After that, for some time, many residents of Lindcoem were investigated. Thanks to that, the fact that Scáthach had killed someone and was taken to prison spread widely throughout the village.
Soon after, news came that Duke Blahnath had died, and naturally, people in Lindcoem began to circulate filthy rumors that the beautiful Scáthach had been in such and such a relationship with the late Duke, and that something must have gone awry since they couldn’t promise a future together.
Nonsense!
That’s the talk of people who don’t know Scáthach. The nuns of the Paione Monastery, Nemed’s family, and even patients who frequented the Loeagal family’s hospital submitted petitions for Scáthach every week.
His father said it was all his fault, and that there was no guilt on Scáthach, and he would handle it himself. Nemed was anxious about his father’s words that he would step in and correct things, but he returned to Merton College.
About a month passed.
Thinking that Scáthach would naturally return, Nemed, who had taken time out to come down to Lindcoem, came straight to his father’s hospital and dropped the bag he was carrying when he heard an old man’s shout.

“Our nurse has become the new lord’s concubine!”
The old man who used to tuck candy into Scáthach’s apron pocket lamented, pounding his chest.
As his daughter worked in the fortress now not a fortress he rattled on about seeing the nurse, or about becoming the new lord’s concubine.
A darkened Nemed headed straight for the Lindcoem mansion.
“I saw the lord myself not long ago! They said they’ll release her if the statements match and there’s no problem!”
His father yelled something to stop him, but nothing reached Nemed’s ears.
Concubine!
Scáthach was his precious existence like no other.
It was when Nemed was sixteen and Scáthach was fourteen. Having lost his sibling to an epidemic, Nemed formed a bond with the Paione Monastery, following his father, who volunteered in medical service, trying to discipline his mind.
Even so, he couldn’t hide his gloomy expression.

After finishing the service, Scáthach, who was the same age as his younger sister, was the child who offered awkward comfort to Nemed, who always sobbed miserably behind the building. There were even days when both wept loudly, saying that they had lost family too.
Since then, he had taken care of Scáthach like a little sister.
When he heard the news that Scáthach’s pet dog Nix had run into the forest during hunting and Scáthach, who had gone to find Nix, was hospitalized at his father’s hospital after being shot, it was Nemed who threw away all the bunches of flowers brought by the shooter.
“That kid isn’t even mine to shoot and raise, what’s with the flowers?”
“It doesn’t seem like a bad person though…….’
“Scáthach. Didn’t I tell you? All men are darkhearted bastards!”
“Is Nemed dark too?”
“Honestly, I’m not… but once you start making exceptions, there’s no end, so it’s right for me to doubt myself too…….’
Scáthach laughed clearly at his answer lacking confidence.
After graduating from college, they joked halfseriously about living together in the capital and getting an office to operate half as Nemed’s lawyer’s office and half as Scáthach’s hospital, but it was never about marriage or promising the future.

He had no intention of doing so, but if he had, Scáthach would have drawn a line and run away long ago.
They made such a girl a concubine? Scáthach isn’t the type to willingly become someone’s concubine. Surely the new lord bastard must have falsely accused Scáthach of murder.
She was pretty enough to worry about leaving her alone, but in the end, this happened!

Top celebrity Yu Shu suddenly fell into a coma during a concert.

The entire internet was in an uproar.

“Big sister bravely took action to defend the chastity of our idol!”

When Yu Shu was diagnosed with pregnancy, Yan Jin stared at his belly for a long time.
Covering his stomach, he muttered gloomily, “If you don’t like it, I’ll go get an abortion.”
“It’s not that I don’t like it.” Yan Jin hugged Yu Shu and said softly, “I just feel like I’m not human.”
Yu Shu comforted Yan Jin, “I was already an adult when we got together.”
Yan Jin hesitated, “But you won’t be of legal marriageable age even after giving birth to the child.”
At the same time, a flood of bullet comments appeared in the live streaming room that the two couldn’t see.
