Chapter 151

unedited

Contrary to the already completely darkened landscape outside, the building of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs was stained with candles.

Annie was the only one who kept the place.

As she sips the coffee she got, eagerly examining the documents.

Robbie, who had been watching her all day, shook his head.

‘Now that I see it, you’re really crazy. You’re a crazy woman.’

Looking back on what happened today, even Robbie who saw it was awe-inspired. Bullying by her cohorts, Rai’s confession, and taking care of the staff.

But Annie was determined as if nothing had happened. It’s amazing to see her work like that, despite all the chaos all day.

If it were him, he would have lost his spirit and ate spicy food, or just got annoyed, but Annie didn’t change the color of her face.

‘You’re tough. But still sensible.’

So the day went by.

Robbie put on a complicated expression as he watched Annie get into the carriage to go home.

No matter how much he looked at her, no one forced Annie. If so, she wouldn’t have stayed up until late due to the responsibility.

‘…She is supposed to not go at this hour every time right? Is overtime pay well taken care of?’

Robbie put his hand on his forehead and struggled. Demela is a reliable talent, but he could be a little insensitive in this direction.

‘I’ll have to give it a separate word sooner or later…..’

All members of the imperial staff, including Annie, deserved overtime pay. Robbie, who had previously been subjected to harsh labor, could hardly look at it.

Step step.

Robbie didn’t even take off his robe as he walked through the dimly lit Imperial Palace. The expression on his face hidden between them was unknown.

Even the next day, Robbie’s pursuit did not stop. He followed Annie with a slightly calmer attitude than before.

Of course, no one bothered him like yesterday, as rumors of Robbie spread to the priests around.

‘…It should be obvious today. She’ll work like crazy again.’

Robbie’s steps were a little slower than yesterday. He stared at Annie, who, despite her small and frail build, eagerly carried the parchment.

Annie’s face, standing in the distant hallway, was brighter than today’s sunlight. Is that why?

Everyone who met her smiled brightly. It was as if Annie had the energy to bring people vitality.

…. Hmm hmm.

Robbie’s dazed footsteps stopped.

Unknowingly, he covered his ears with both hands at the sudden piercing noise.

“Waaaaaannnngg!! Waaaaaannnnnnnngggggg!!”

In the distance, a boy who appeared to be the son of a noble family was crying with his throat out.

‘Oh, it’s noisy.’

Originally, Robbie, who was not very fond of children except for Ejed, grimaced.

Moreover, parents have to take good care of their children, so what are they doing here?

Well, because many nobles visit the Imperial Palace, there are often lost children. Usually, the chief attendant and the lower attendant dealt with it, but there was no one in this hallway.

Robbie was annoyed that he had been caught up in a nuisance, but looked around looking for the chief attendant.

Then, Annie, who was approaching the crying child caught his eye.

‘Hmm. She even takes care of children, yes.’

Robbie wasn’t surprised, but rather tried to.

Now, he says, whatever happens with Annie, he won’t be too surprised.

If he looked at her, isn’t she Ejed’s, which everyone avoids, woman? Her boldness had to be acknowledged.

Robbie looked at Annie, half sarcastic and half curious. He wondered what she would do.

“Carmishu, it’s Carmishu’s Emerald.”

“Ugh… do you know our family?”

“Yes. You’re wearing a very proud emerald ring.”

Robbie was slightly impressed. As the saying goes, there was an emerald ring on the index finger of the child’s little hand.

‘You know things like that.’

Her eyesight was great. That’s why she was good at work.

Annie also glanced around as if she was looking for the chief maid or the chief attendant. But when no one was there, she held out her fist slightly at the child.

‘What. You want to hit him?!’

Robbie found a completely unexpected development. He often thought to himself that he wanted to slap the children who didn’t listen, but he never did.

But it’s no one else but Annie who is trying to hit the child. Robbie stared at them anxiously.

The child did not cry or whine. With his chubby eyes he looked at her outstretched fist and sniffled his nose.

Annie said in a friendly voice.

“It’s a way of cheering from other countries. Do you know how to do this?”

“I do not know.”

“Now, would you like to clench your fist first?”

“Huh.”

The child clenched her fist hard, and pushed it out again, just as Annie told him.

Thump.

“Wow.”

The green eyes widened as the backs of his hands touched Annie’s soft backs.

Annie smiled as she looked at the eyes, which were greener than a leaf of grass.

“Carmishu have been courageous for generations. You will surely become a better man than your ancestors.”

“Yes!”

“Yes. Grow up and be a great man like His Majesty.”

Annie smiled and patted the child’s head. Then she heard urgent steps from somewhere, and the child’s parents ran up to them.

“Benel!”

“Mom dad!”

The parents who found the child cried, and the child was rather fine. At the sudden family reunion, Annie reluctantly stepped back from them.

The Carmishu and his wife, who had gathered their minds, had to repay Annie, but she politely refused.
