Chapter -129

Efthalia sat all alone on the couch with his hand pinched between his brows.

"Your Majesty, is something the matter?"

Benjamin finally walks in after Renee had left. He didn't think he would see him like he was completely out of hope or more like something was dragging him to a mess.

"Your Majesty?"

He called again since he refused to respond or move a little.

"Did you find anything about that missing maid?"

Efthalia finally spoke, removing his hand from his forehead.

"W-well, It's not much of the information, however," Benjamin pulls out one of the papers from his hold. "After inquiring about the lady she had been serving, it was told that she had been behaving strangely weird."

Efthalia placed his leg on top of the other. "Since when?"

Benjamin gazes down at the paper narrowing his eyes, "after the death of Lady Lana."

Efthalia paused his hand from pouring the warm tea into his cup but continued a second later. "How was her behavior before and after?"
