“What’s that noise?”
Rosé cocked her head in bewilderment at the screaming sound demanding the mansion to evacuate.
“Could something serious have happened?”
“It seems to have come from over there.”
The knights nearby approached Rosé. They circled around Rosé as if to protect her.
Ahhh!
The mansion was in chaos due to the screaming noise that was heard disruptively.
“We probably should go in the direction the noise is coming from.”
People from the mansion began to crowd in the direction where the noise was coming from, murmuring amongst themselves.
Rosé, who was slowly walking towards the source of the noise, soon felt something strange.
“Wait…… that’s my room.”
This was because the scream that was piercing her ears was coming from her own room.
Rosé, protected by the knights, walked quickly.
What on earth has happened?
And in her own room at that.
Rosé, who had arrived at the door without realizing it, saw the butler Gwen running towards her from afar.
“My lady, are you alright!”
“I’m fine, Gwen.”
Gwen, who had run out worried that the person screaming was Rosé, let out a sigh of relief.
“Thank goodness. Then who on earth is inside…”
At Gwen’s words, Rosé shook her head as if she didn’t know. Rosé exchanged glances with the knights and nodded her head.
It was a signal of sorts to open the door. One of the knights stepped forward and grabbed the handle of Rosé’s door.
“Excuse me, my lady.”
With that, the knight swung open Rosé’s door.
The person who appeared as soon as the door was opened was Doana.
“…Doana?”
Rosé frowned at the sight of Doana screaming in her room.
“What are you doing here?”
Rosé could not hide her bewildered look. Not only had she entered her room, but she was also wearing a stolen dress.
Gwen let out a deep sigh at the sight of Doana causing a commotion in Rosé’s room. His expression, with his temples pressed, looked quite flustered.
“Kyaaaak! What do I do! What do I do!”
Gwen gestured towards Doana who was screaming.
“Get Doana out of here right away.”
At Gwen’s words, the knights approached Doana.
Doana, who had been in despair looking at the mirror, only realized that Rosé had entered then.
Doana pushed away the knights coming towards her and ran towards Rosé.
“Rosé!”
Doana, running with a desperate look, had tears streaming down her eyes like chicken poop. Seeing her, Rosé’s eyes widened.
“You…… why does your face look like that?”
On Doana’s face, which had been pale and dry, one side was full of red blisters.
From below her right cheek to where her chin line continued, the blotchy raised blisters looked quite ugly.
“It’s because of you! Because of you, my skin turned out like this!”
Doana ran at Rosé with a fierce momentum, as if she was about to hit Rosé right then. The knights grabbed Doana’s arms, which were running towards Rosé.
“You’re going to take responsibility for this! Aaargh!”
“How dare you, what kind of language are you using towards the lady!”
Gwen yelled at Doana, who was screaming loudly.
“Huff……hick, hick.”
Doana, startled by the butler’s voice, lowered her head and started to sob. The butler looked at Doana with a disgruntled expression and clicked his tongue.
“Call the doctor.”
He ordered a maid nearby and stared at Doana.
“We can’t let this go, Doana.”
Gwen couldn’t just watch Doana, who had even stolen a dress.
“Get treated first. I’ll punish you for what you’ve done afterwards.”
The butler’s faint voice was filled with suppressed anger. The knights took Doana, who was sagging, away.
“I apologize, my lady. I should have educated her better.”
Gwen let out a low sigh as he watched Doana’s retreating figure.
“No, butler, how can you be at fault. It’s my fault for not drawing a line properly, being lonely without friends. ”
Rosé calmly spoke to the butler, who couldn’t hide his apologetic expression.
“I will ensure she doesn’t cause such an incident again.”
He bowed his head towards Rosé. His eyes, bowed down, were quite cold.
[Star Icon][Star Icon][Star Icon]“Emergency treatment has been given.”
The doctor, who had been gently tapping Doana’s face with a thin cotton swab, spoke.
“My face, is it all fixed? Is it fixed!”
Doana was still in a state of excitement. She grabbed the doctor’s clothes and screamed like a madwoman.
She revealed her true nature, which she had been hiding until now, only showing it to the servants she had previously considered beneath her.
She seemed to lose her reason due to her face changing grotesquely.
The doctor shook off Doana’s hand holding his clothes and brushed off the spot where she had grasped.
He knew she was Eric’s concubine, but he was not pleased with her treating him in such a way, as she was merely a maidservant.
“I’ve given you the best treatment. The blisters will go down soon, but the colorful scars will not disappear.”
Upon the doctor’s words, Doana’s face changed desperately like a person who had lost everything in the world.
“…So, it can’t be fixed?”
