“Well, maybe you’re not all be�er yet, so you’d be�er rest for a while. Make sure you eat
well and feel at home. You can’t ignore the trauma.”
“Ah…!”
Aria’s face turned pale as if the doctor’s words reminded her of the time of the incident.
Having to live in a mask for a long time, she looked quite plausible.
Jessie, who was waiting by her side, hurriedly handed her the honeyed water. Jessie was
black under her eyes as if she had not slept and worried. Aria bit her lips and asked again,
recognizing that she was the only one who would remain unchanged from beginning to
end.
“Well, what happened to Berry?”
“I’ve called the guards, and I’ve sent people to go after her, so she’ll get caught in no time.
Don’t worry.”

Aria’s expression was dark even in the Count’s affirmative answer.
“… Is it true that she did it? The… poison.”
“I’ll have to investigate more to say for certain, but for now I have no choice but to see it.”
The incredible sight also dimmed the complexion of those watching her. They were
grieved over the fact that the maid who was a�ending at her side had done such a terrible
thing to her master.
‘I hope she wouldn’t be caught for a long time.’
Aria was so happy in this situation that she wanted to dance. ‘The longer she runs away,
the more compassion she will have for herself. If there is any rumor that this is related to
Mielle, that will be a bonus.’
“Mielle, are you all right?”
Aria spoke to Mielle, who was secretly checking her condition in the corner after she
quietly opened the door and came in, and Mielle nodded in surprise. Yeah, it was like a
criminal.
“I-I’m okay…”
“It’s a good thing. I wish it was only for me. If you’re going through this terrible thing, I’m
sure I can’t stand it.”
The remark was sincere. If they were harmed together, wouldn’t she be able to pass over
the responsibility on to her? Of course, it was what she ordered, so she wouldn’t do the
stupid thing to drink poison on her own.

‘Oh, come to think of it, it was the opposite in the past.’
It was Mielle who had pretended to drink poison while she had abe�ed the crime. It was
Aria who had been driven to the culprit. Of course, it was true that she had said it would
be be�er to put poison in Berry’s temptation, but the first indicator of the case was Mielle,
like now. That had ended Aria’s life.
Foolish Mielle, it would have been be�er to pretend to drink poison like then. You didn’t
know that the bullied patient was followed by pity and sympathy.
“… You’ll be feeling be�er soon.”
‘Didn’t you want me to die?’
Mielle’s smile, which did not seem to be pleasant as usual, made Aria smile.
“Thank you very much, Mielle. I’m happy that you’re trying to cheer me up.”
Aria could see Mielle’s eyes shaking at the look of weakness but never likely to die. She
seemed to want to run away from this place right now.
“… But I’m relieved to see you wake up like this. I think I’m disturbing you, so I’ll go out.”
And she said she was going to run away. It was quite hard to see the person, who she had
been trying to kill, smiling alive. Aria could read her feelings from the way she hurried out
of the room without looking back.
“I’ll go, then. Call me whenever you need me.”
“Yes, you’d be�er take a good rest. I’m going out, too.”

When Mielle suggested that she would go out, the others left, saying, “You’d be�er take a
good rest.” The last ones who left were Annie and Jessie. Annie fell on Aria’s bed and
burst into sorrowful tears as if her startled heart still hadn’t calmed down.
“I… I thought you were going to die…!”
Now she was crying, but in the past, if she said that she was also on the side of killing
herself, who would believe it? In a complicated mood, Aria’s hand, sweeping Annie’s hair
was very rough.
“Jessie, with this, Annie’s eyes would swell out. Can you bring her a cold towel? And the
tea I’m going to drink.”
Now that there were no more maids to serve, the share was naturally given to Jessie and
Annie. In particular, Jessie left the room quietly answering whether she thought it was her
job to do.
“How is the atmosphere outside?”
Annie, who understood Aria’s intentions at once, stopped crying and answered, “Don’t
even talk. The mansion went up and down. And you had a visitor that day, right? He’s the
one who had many connections in the noble society, so the rumor seems to have already
spread.”
“Really? What kind of rumor?”
“The maid tried to poison you…”
There seemed to be no other rumor except the fact that nothing else was going on.

‘Isn’t it time yet?’
It had only been two days since the incident, so it wouldn’t be easy to talk about anything
but the fact. Just the fact that she had been nearly poisoned gave her a sweet taste.
“Anyway, the servants and maids of the mansion are all angry! There was a servant who
threatened to tear her up and kill her if she comes back”
“Yes, I see.”
That alone was a good harvest. But the seed that had been sown had sprouted and grown
as far as the sweet fruit was borne. Usually, rumors from the outside were supposed to
spread in from the inside.
“Annie, you’ve got something to do.”
“What is it?”
“Yes. I might get a li�le busy.”
Aria put on a smile. It was quite unexpected to see her who had a headache until now.
Annie felt uneasy and swallowed her saliva.
“Why don’t you correct the rumor? I’m sure many people are also curious about the state
of the mansion.”
“Ah…”
That alone allowed Annie to notice what Aria wanted. Annie nodded vigorously.

“Don’t, don’t worry, miss! I’m an expert on that.”
“Yes, I’ll just trust you, Annie. Oh, by the way, I’m sure Baron Burboom will be curious
about that, who’s on good terms with you, so please let him know.”
Baron Burboom’s favoritism and loyalty toward her was palpable. He must have been
much more gossiping than Annie. Now that the plate was laid, all that was left was to
wait.
As she threw a card of Annie and locked herself in the room, saying, “It’s impossible to get
a visitor,” there was an unexpected visitor who she couldn’t refuse. It was Sarah and
Vincent.
“Aria…!”
“Sarah.”
She burst into tears as soon as she saw Aria’s face, which had become very emaciated. It
was because she didn’t eat properly to look more plausible. Behind her, Marquis Vincent
greeted her with a regretful face.
“You must be busy, how can you…?”
Even with Aria’s question, Sarah could not easily answer, so the Marquis was the one who
answered instead.
“I was told that you had a big incident, so we couldn’t make an appointment, and we
came here.”

The Marquis had a painful face, saying she looked very sick. Besides, when she faced
Sarah as if she had got the incident, she couldn’t say anything. She just had to look at it
quietly together.
“I heard the culprit hasn’t been caught yet.”
“I think she ran away right after I fell down.”
“I sent people to catch her as soon as possible.”
Aria nodded silently with her eyes wide open when he explained that there were people
who had been trained to find people. At the very least, one of the maids fled, and she
thought it was not necessary to hire such men, but she listened to him because he gave her
an explanation quite seriously.
Then Sarah, who suddenly stopped crying, said while holding Aria’s hand. “Don’t worry,
Aria. I’m on your side.”
“Sarah?”
“And the Marquis, too, right?”
“That’s right.”
The Marquis nodded in response to Sarah’s question.
‘Are they really going to be on my side even though I act like in the rumors. The wicked
woman who people know, unlike now?’

Maybe it would be if it was Sarah. She thought Sarah would believe there was a reason for
being such a wicked woman even if she did something evil. It was an infinite amount of
trust that she had never received even from her mother.
“… Thank you.”
So when she answered with unwanted tears, Sarah hugged Aria and began to cry again. In
the end, Sarah stopped crying only after her eyes were swollen, and she couldn’t go back
like that, so she borrowed a hat from Aria and hid her eyes and returned.

Perhaps Sarah’s offer to be on her side was not just empty words, but she officially began
to express her opinion, saying, ‘Aria is not a wicked girl but a good girl,’ and Marquis
Vincent also sided with her, saying, ‘I hope the poor Lady Roscent’s case will be resolved
quickly.’
The support of those with power exerted far greater effect than the groundless rumors that
had been passed down from a person to another. Just a few days ago, because she had
a�ended Sarah’s engagement ceremony, many people liked and were interested in Aria.
Therefore, people who had seen her in person and had experienced her looks and
characteristics began to express their opinions, one by one, rather than rumors from
unknown sources.
Annie’s contribution also played a big role. Thanks to her spreading rumors around, Aria
had become a poor girl, who had truly suffered unhappiness without any wrongdoing.

The servants of the mansion cha�ed, and the Count was angry at the shame of the family,
and the Countess was in tears. And after days and days of sleepless nights of ever-
changing rumors, Mielle was again given a le�er from the princess.
* * *
In the midst of such a tumultuous winter, Berry was still not caught. They searched her
family, relatives, and acquaintances, but they couldn’t find her.
It was questionable why such a small girl in her late teens could not be found. They also
took the issue seriously and tightened security for entering and leaving the capital city.
Doubts and suspicions grew bigger, and in time Aria used Annie to pour a dash of oil into
the fire.
‘Unless there is someone behind her, it will be impossible to spend this cold winter alone!’
It was indeed plausible and true that rumors spread that Berry must have been receiving
help from someone, and several times the guards visited the mansion to inspect the
servants and maids.
“I am not! I love Lady Aria so much!”
“Not me either! How much help could a servant give to a fugitive in the first place?”
They truly complained of their injustice, and it was true that the same servants’ help
would not last very long, so the investigation for the servants and maids was soon
terminated. Of the successive claims, it was also due to the most credible one.
