6 min read1,458 words

Lorrain Hill fell from the sky, and the oncoming night wind passed by her

ears. The gentle wind pressure brought a sense of comfort. No matter how many

times, she would never get tired of the feeling of walking through the wind.

slowly fell on the balcony, the pure white long skirt floated up with the

airflow, and then slowly fell, the emerald eyes gleamed like gems at night,

and then gradually faded and returned to normal appearance. During this

period, there was no sound, and with keen perception, he easily avoided the

sight of the guards in the courtyard.

gently walked into the bedroom, the door was still locked, her fingers passed

in the air, a breeze rolled over, and the candle went out. Then he opened the

window and the night breeze swirled in the bedroom. The previously intoxicated

air was cleared. Finally, he closed the curtains and lay on the bed before

falling asleep peacefully.

This night is also exceptionally peaceful and sweet.

When Lorrain Hill walked out of the bedroom the next morning, the four maids

outside the door still greeted her, just as usual.

They first brought hot water to let Lorrain Hill wash her face, then one of

them helped the girl comb her hair, and tied the two strands of hair beside

her ears into long slender braids. Then the two braids met at the back of the

head and tied them The last light red bow with a little girlish breath finally

dropped from the middle to the back, higher than the other waist-long hair.

Lorraine Hill shook his head in the mirror, her long golden hair rubbed on the

red dress and fell like silk.

"Pell, you have taken care of my hair so well."

"The eldest has passed the award. In fact, your hair is perfect originally, I

just sorted it out a little."

"Well, but it's better than nothing, right?"

"Yes." The maid finally adjusted the hair of Lorrain Hill's ears before

putting down the comb.

"How long has Pell been to Calites?" The girl looked in the mirror and asked.

"It's been 5 years, because my father used to follow Lord Angus to go north

and south, so I was able to work in the headquarters smoothly."

"Is the maid's job hard?"

"Unfortunately, the headquarter is abundant and not in short supply. We often

have time to rest."

"That's it..."

Then Lorraine Hill walked into the restaurant, and Chelsea was already waiting

here.

"Miss is early."

"Chelsea early."

As usual, these maids will leave temporarily. During breakfast, Chelsea will

report something, but today Lorrain Hill asked Pell to stay.

When Lorraine Hill was talking to Chelsea, she stood aside, she was still calm

at first, and then more and more restless, the long legs wrapped in white

stockings began to tremble slightly.

Lorrain Hill continued to ask Chelsea about the investigation of yesterday's

assassination, and then slowly discussed the motives of the Hollis guards'

assassination.

"Pell, why do you say that those whose family members and relatives are

working in the chamber of commerce betrayed? Is it because the chamber of

commerce treats him badly."

"I...I don't know..." Pell trembled, his face was pale, and his voice trembled

slightly.

"That's it."

Lorrain Hill took a sip of hot tea, slowly thinking about how to deal with

this close-knit maid who was poisoned by the candle in the dinner and the

room.

"There are some remote islands in the Southern Cranberry Kingdom. The branch

there has been insufficiently staffed. Would you like to work there for 20

years?"

"I do, I do."

She knelt on the ground trembling, grabbed the ground with her head, choked

and said.

"Okay, you can clean up today and say hello to your parents and family. Their

lives will be the same as usual and will not be affected by you."

"Thank you, Miss, I...I'm sorry for you."

She knelt on the ground, her eyes were red, her tears could not stop, and her

forehead was already covered with dust and bruises.

"Then, that's it." After speaking, Lorrain Hill got up and left the restaurant

where the cries were sounding.

Chelsea called a few other maids from outside the door to follow Pell, and

then followed Lorrain Hill to leave.

The two walked through the corridor in the courtyard, but the head maid still

did not ask, which instead made the girl curious.

"Sister Chelsea, aren't you curious about what happened just now?"

"Why explain to me what the eldest lady wants to do?" Chelsea's words did not

fluctuate.

Not good, the maid sister was actually angry, Lorrain Hill turned her head and

looked at the maid who was wearing glasses and well dressed.

"I am sorry."

"Why did the eldest apologize to me? You are the master."

"I'm sorry~" Lorrain Hill wanted to pass the level cutely.

"Oh...Miss, you are always like this, the rainy night before, can't you

cherish yourself?"

"What if Pell has a back player, if there are other accomplices, then you have

something wrong, what will a Chamber of Commerce of Connaught University do?"

Chelsea spoke of the worries and dissatisfaction in his heart.

But I know she has no backs, and there are no other accomplices in the maid,

Lorrain Hill thought to herself, but couldn't explain how she knew it, so she

nodded and said yes.

Then the two talked all the way, and finally came to the study room of the

Chamber of Commerce, which is where Lorrain Hill usually works.

After dealing with some affairs, Lorraine Hill asked Chelsea to invite Seres

over. While waiting, she began to slowly recall the life of the old

housekeeper.

When he was young, he was a little nobleman of the West Wind. Later, he joined

the army and became an officer in the West Wind vs. Barbarian War. After the

war, he served as a mercenary for a while. Later, they met Angus. The two

became confidants and assisted Angus. Managing the affairs of the Chamber of

Commerce is the core figure of Calites. He is seasoned, meticulous, and rarely

makes mistakes, and has been recognized by most people in the Chamber of

Commerce.

"Miss, I'm here." Ceres walked into the room, interrupting Lorraine Hill's

memories.

"Well, Uncle Ceres. I troubled you to investigate Madame Mela's past last

time. Is there any progress?"

"There have been some results. Mrs. Mela’s family was once a nobleman of the

West Wind, and her fief was in the area of Wilga, but her father’s

generation had already fallen away. When he was a child, his father did some

small business~www.mtlnovel. com~ I haven't made much money, so my life is

relatively poor."

He paused for a while, then continued.

"Mr. Angus met Mrs. Mela at a certain banquet, because Lord Angus had just

brought Calites to the top of the core of Verga, and he also won one of the 26

seats in the guild. High-spirited, often attend banquets invited by various

families, and integrate into this circle."

"After a certain banquet, he got drunk and fell into the garden outside the

banquet hall. At that time, Mrs. Mela happened to be passing by and was going

to help, but he was entangled by the drunk Mr. Angus, and spent the night like

this. Affectionate and unexpectedly made Mrs. Mela pregnant."

"At first, Angus didn't agree with this matter and thought it was a conspiracy

by another chamber of commerce. Later, he gradually became familiar with Mrs.

Mela's character and slowly accepted it. However, because of his deep love for

the former wife who died, he has never publicly acknowledged this

relationship. , Just sent someone to take care of Mrs. Mela and helped her

father to achieve several lucrative businesses."

"What happened then?"

"Later, after Mrs. Mela’s father tasted the sweetness, he asked Master Angus

many times to help him, and then he became addicted to gambling and asked for

more and more things. In the end, Mr. Angus gave him a lesson. After a few

meals, he slowly settled down, and now he is no longer in business, guarding

several manors in the countryside, and living a comfortable and moist life by

relying on it.

"So that's it, Uncle Ceres investigated in detail."

Lorrain Hill stood up, walked slowly to the window sill, and then turned

around.

"Unfortunately, you didn't tell the truth completely."

At this time, six guards armed with swords rushed into the study, and with the

sound of the friction of the armor, they surrounded the old housekeeper of the

Chamber of Commerce with their swords facing each other, and two of them stood

in front of Lorrain Hill to prevent Violent and wounded.
