Chapter 39

The third annex was relatively close to the back garden. It was a building consisting of the medical officer's office dedicated to Marianne, with another one taking care of the inhabitants of the mansion and medical supplies room. Those familiar with the mansion called the 3rd Annex a medical building.

"Then take Eve to that building through that road," she told Iric.

Eve's eyes got round like beads. She now stopped begging with her hands. She even raised her head and looked up at Marianne without permission.

"Lady… "

"I wish I took you inside the main building, but you could be noticed by people there. Just tell them you missed your step. If you make that excuse,they won't look at you with suspicion and the chief maid won't punish you."

Marian grinned brightly instead of pointing out Eve's rudeness.

"But lady, this maid…"

"Dangerous? I know. Maybe you are. That's why I ask Iric. Am I too bad, Iric?"
