Ellen would have been a good person originally, and the stress of not receiving her husband’s love might have led to her debauchery.

The current Ellen had let go of everything and was in a peaceful state.

“So, the Viscount is the bad guy. The worst villain!”

That was Terry’s conclusion. However, seeing the current situation of searching for Ellen contradicted the rumors.

Terry, who was contemplating for a moment, had a feeling that perhaps Philip wasn’t expressing regret.

He didn’t know the details, but the confident look in Philip’s eyes, saturated with regret, gave Terry assurance.

“Now? Did he finally realize the preciousness after leaving?!”

Terry couldn’t tell if Ellen still had feelings for Philip. However, he had a hope.

If Ellen suffered so much, Philip must have suffered even more.

With his own conclusion, Terry wrote a note and handed it to Philip.

“Why are they calling each other by name?”
Only then did Philip closely examine the busker.

He hadn’t paid any attention before, but upon seeing him again, he was handsome. Somehow, there seemed to be an elegance flowing from him.

Philip had a moment of arrogance. He became overly self-conscious. Especially considering that Ellen, who liked handsome men to begin with.

“Why write a note? And what does it have to do with Ellen?”

As the street busker stared at Philip’s eyes as if he was looking at something pathetic, Philip unintentionally shivered.

Soon, the street busker began to write a note to Philip as if declaring something.

He’s a mute. Philip paused at the fact that he belonged to the socially vulnerable group.

“…….”

A fan and a sponsor….

The more Philip read the notes written by the busker, the heavier his heart became.

Moreover, as the busker handed the note over to Philip, he leaned in and whispered.

“And my muse.”

The moment Philip heard the busker’s voice, he shivered with an unusual tension.

‘A very dangerous person!’

The busker’s sensual voice was different from the mild and innocent Haidana or the gentle mildness.

It was a gift from the gods. That voice could make any woman fall for him.

However, the busker also had a deep meaning to Ellen.

Perhaps the busker and Ellen were already in a special relationship.

“W-Well, you said you couldn’t talk.”

Philip, embarrassed, couldn’t find more words and repeatedly covered and uncovered his mouth. His heart pounded.

‘Heid was fired, but how about this one? How can I get rid of him from Ellen? Is exile the best option?’

Then, Philip noticed his pitiful appearance and covered his eyes with his hands in agony.

To think that he wouldn’t stand still if he saw an attractive man around Ellen. Self-loathing filled him. But leaving it as it was felt even more painful.

‘Why did I end up like this?’

At that moment, the busker whispered in Philip’s ear.

“People know me as a mute. Ellen too…….”

“…….”

“But if someone tries to touch me a little, everyone will find out… So.”

With a relaxed smile, the busker put his index finger to his lips.

Shh.

If Philip stayed silent, he would keep his mouth shut as well. Philip could only nod his head with his eyes closed.

The busker wrote another note and left the square leisurely.

A large work desk was in the middle of a poorly ventilated underground workshop.

The atmosphere in the workshop was generally gloomy, but the light from the lamp illuminating the inside was very bright.

Mild Haid, who was the milestone, was standing next to a worker’s desk. The worker was immersed in the work I had requested, and I leaned against the worn-out green sofa against the wall, yawning continuously.
It felt like we hadn’t stayed up all night when the worker soon took off his glasses and stood up.

“Phew, it’s a really intricate and beautiful necklace. Please verify if the completed blueprint matches the necklace.”

I wiped my sleepy eyes and carefully compared the drawing he had made with the necklace.

“They look the same to me, how about you?”

“Perfect.”

“That’s what I see too.”

If it looked the same to Mild Gyeong and Haid as well, then it was good. I carefully placed the diamond necklace in a packaging box, securely tucked it away, and handed the worker ten gold coins.

“Okay, then continue as planned. Bring it discreetly when it’s finished.”

The worker’s eyes sparkled as he bowed his hands.

“Yes, madam. I will make sure to complete it by the designated time.”

When I came outside, the sun had already risen unnoticed. It was already past 9 o’clock.

“Thanks for introducing a good worker, Haid.”

Haid, who had been yawning, quickly nodded at me.

“I’m glad I could help, madam.”

“Right. Since you worked the night shift, take a break for the rest of the day and come to work tomorrow.”

“Yes! Madam!”

Haid energetically replied and went back home. Then, I got into the carriage and told Mild Gyeong.

“Let’s go to the post office.”

The post office was not far from the boutique.

I called the postmaster to come and sit down, wanting to order the safest and most accurate special delivery.

And I emphasized how important this delivery was.

“Understood, madam. I will devote myself to fulfilling the order without the slightest error, vowing on the honor of Morris Estate Postmaster.”

I received the receipt and came outside. But somehow, I felt uncomfortable with the scenery.

Standing still, two rugged-looking men approached me and bowed their heads.

“Ah, nice to meet you, madam. Thank you for coming all the way here.”

“Did you hear the news and come to see for yourselves?”

“Well, it was really difficult to time it right.”

Although they looked like villains, they showed great favoritism towards me.

Mild Gyeong, who was standing still, seemed to know them from the looks of it.

I was puzzled, but their words sounded strange, so I remained silent for a moment.

“Don’t worry; we’ll make sure to get rid of it completely, madam.”

“Get rid of it?”

When I questioned, the two men looked around and lowered their already low voices.

“Right, that’s correct. No one should know about it.”

“It will be perfectly covered up with a successful incident.”

“That’s right. Just wait for a moment.”

I roughly replied and gestured to Mild Gyeong. Mild Gyeong naturally lowered his waist and brought his ear close to me.

“Who are these guys?”

“They’re from the service center.”

“What did I ask them to do?”

“About half a year ago, you called them to request something.”

Mild Gyeong seemed to be unaware of what Ellen did in the past. Trying to appear nonchalant, I asked the men.

“Did I do that? I’ve been a bit forgetful since the last report about six months ago.”
The expressions of the two men slightly distorted at my reaction.

“It’s awkward if you act like this, madam.”

One of the men lowered his voice even more.

“Do you know how hard we prepared for this crazy talk?”

“Didn’t you promise a reward of 100 gold coins for success?”
