Chapter 23: Propaganda
>>Corvina
"That's right!" The guy I slapped straightened up, "He's a degenerate who assaults women!" He kept his hand on the cheek that was slapped while he pointed at Hael with his other hand.
I crossed my arms,"Oh?" I was not amused, "And where is the victim?" I may have been blinded by many things in the past but I'm sure Hael was not the type to go around and assault someone. And considering what he's capable of, why would he do something petty like assaulting someone? I would believe it if someone said he killed Tracy, but assault?
No,
"Lady Corvina, Tracy was crying in the kitchen," A maid said, "Everyone saw how distressed she was."
"In the kitchen?" I raised my eyebrows in question, "So she was crying in a public place where every staff member goes." I rolled my eyes, "Doesn't that mean she put on a show for everyone to see?"
"Hey! That's cruel of you to assume!"
"How could you be so heartless to your own personal maid?!"
"You're a female yourself, how could you defend someone like Hael-"
I raised my hand to stop everyone before they uttered more bullshit.
"And where is your proof?" I glared at all of them, "Where is your proof that Hael did it?" I looked at each and every one of them but none of them said anything to that.
