Chapter 483: Bring Him Here
[No, he sent us a message while he was in Medeus saying he would have very important guests visit the duchy once he returned. And yesterday, suddenly, he said those guests would come today. I thought, perhaps it was someone from the Loranne royalty. But it was royalty from Valeria instead. Does this mean they had the chance to talk while they were in Medeus?]
Sonia got even more nervous as she thought about the possibilities of what they could have talked about in Medeus.
[Ugh, that child is truly dead, right? Why is he still giving me a headache even now? If he suddenly comes back, what am I to do? Brent must be the heir.]
Arabella stared at Sonia when she heard that thought. Sonia straightened up and fixed her expression.
[Did the Empress just frown at me?]
"Oh my, where are my manners? Serve our guest some refreshments," Sonia called out to their maids instead of the Head Butler.
The Head Butler remained standing behind Sonia even though he should be the one serving guests of Arabella and Ferdinand’s status.
’If they are this obvious even in front of us, how come Duke Olivier did not notice their relationship?’
’Ah, but then again, why would you be suspicious of the people closest to you? He must have thought they were simply working together. I was once like that too. I never doubted Renee’s words and actions because she had been serving me for years without any issues.’
It meant the Duke truly trusted Sonia and the Head Butler that much.
Arabella knew how much of a shock it was for the Duke to learn and absorb that his wife and butler whom he trusted so much, both betrayed him and tried to eliminate him and his son.
