Chapter 32

Where did Laritte disappear to?

To find out, we would need to rewind the story a little.

“……”

After several days of sleep, Laritte finally opened her eyes. She pressed down on the soft covers to lift up her body. Beyond her messy silver locks, she could see the luxurious wallpaper shining on the walls of the room.

Where was she?

Physiological needs pricked her before her head could capture over the last thing she remembered. She was thirsty.

As she looked around, she noticed a glass of water kept beside her bedside.

A while ago, one of the maids had placed it.

Quickly gulping it down, the fresh cool liquid soothed her burning throat. Then, she closed her eyes again. She felt as though she didn’t sleep properly, but in fact, it was because she slept too much.

Unaware of it, she lied down on the bed and closed her eyes. But soon…

“……it’s uncomfortable.”

She mumbled, raising her eyelids.

The bed was too soft for her.

If she’d heard of the price, her features would’ve definitely popped out.

She was much more familiar and comfortable with cheaper beds and loosened mattress. Stumbling down from the bed, she curled herself up on the floor. That way, she was able to slip into another nap.

She was so occupied that she didn’t even know she was wearing luxurious silky sleepwear.

The blanket on the bed fell on top of her sleeping figure.

As a result, it was only natural that the maid who came in afterwards could not find her.

“M-Ma’am, Ma’am?”

Laritte was still sound asleep in the corner next to the large bed, curled under the covers. No one would even imagine one would be there.

“Aaaaaah! Oh, Lord!”

Knowing Laritte had disappeared, the maid rushed out to inform the others.

All the servants searched all over the mansion except that place. Even Ian was also busy searching the garden and rushing his people…..

“Madam Duchess!”
