"Mom? no, I don't feel bad for Lee. I did meet him, but it was also only briefly because he accompanied me to chat and walk in the back garden. After that I came back, asking for Almonds from one of the maids. and . . . and I forgot what happened after that." I said trying to remember all the things that felt like something was left behind. But what?
"Are you sure? Who is that maid? Could it be that maid who made you like this!?" Mommy looks angry, but I'm not sure that the maid is mean to me.
"I think it's true Mom, How can a mansion like this be entered by an outsider? Surely the suspect is an insider." Bella's voice made me and Mommy look, I looked at Bella who looked at my face with a serious look. I felt there was something strange about his gaze.
"You're right Bella, this must be the servant's doing! Find out who I assigned to make Almonds. Bring her in front of me, I'll cut off her legs and arms!" I immediately held Mommy's hand who was about to leave, looking into her eyes with fixed eyes.
"Mom, it's good we see from the other side. don't be rash, it's not good. Now, just bring the maid to me. Let me ask her seriously, there are some things I'm forgetting here. and i'll remember it when I find it." some information." i said confidently, I looked at mommy then into bella's eyes. I had a bad feeling about bella. I feel like I saw Bella last night. But I forgot where? and when?.
"but choon-Hee, we can't let people like that servant be given the freedom and opportunity to do more evil than this." mommy said adamantly.
"Mom? Just trust me, I know what really happened and I'm sure the maid has no bad intentions. Please just bring her here." I said again, mommy seemed to take a deep breath and then nodded.
"Oh yes Mom, Please bring Lee here too. I want to ask him a few things, don't judge before we know the truth Mom." I said in a soft voice, Mommy nodded again. She walked away leaving me and Bella still standing near the sofa. two waiters were in our midst. I don't know why Bella looked me in the eye so closely, she seemed to be looking for something. But what is she looking for?
Sometimes my heart is never wrong and never lies, so I just know what's going on. Does all this have anything to do with Bella?
Maybe yes, maybe no..
"What are you waiting for, put medicine on Miss Choon-hee's face. You want her beautiful face to be ruined because of you?" Bella asked the two maids, the maid immediately nodded and walked towards me.
Not long Bella sat on the bed, she chose to look at me from a distance. I looked into her eyes continuously, I was already suspicious of someone. I will definitely look at that person closely, until he feels uncomfortable. But unfortunately Bella looked relaxed and just smiled a little at me. She used to be relaxed?
"Miss, sorry for having to touch your face directly." The waiter's voice made me nod, she looked into my eyes for a moment and smiled a little. She sat blocking my gaze from Bella, and her eyes seemed to be telling me something. what?
I was confused, and she just smiled and blinked a few times. It didn't take long for one hand to put something in my hand, I think it was a piece of paper. I hastily stuffed it into my nightgown pocket, and acted as if nothing had happened.
The two of them looked like they wanted to save me from something, but I guess they were also afraid to take further action. they treat my face quite painstakingly, I know they are actually shaking. Their faces also look like cold sweat. "All right, I'm better. You can go." I said, after feeling better. They nodded and chose to leave in front of me and Bella. I tried to walk towards the mirror and saw my face in some parts. Like getting slapped? I thought. Guessing. Yes.. I think this is indeed a slap in the face, but who slapped me?
The culprit is definitely a woman, a woman's habit when she is angry is to slap. I also feel that my hair is quite sore, it can be seen from the few strands that fall out on the floor. It was confirmed by a woman, and I immediately looked back at Bella. Is Bella the culprit?
"What are you here for?" I asked Bella, whether on purpose or not. But the two maids had opened the door wide enough. Until I could see some of the bodyguards standing in front of me, my eyes saw Bella who was also looking at the door.
"I just want to take care of you Choon-Hee. why? you don't like it? I know you must be very scared right now, because you feel weird about what's happening. But don't worry, I will always be by your side to take care of you. Zurich is quite worried for what happened, he will soon return from overseas and return to this Mansion, you don't have to worry anymore okay." Bella spoke as she walked towards me, then she gently stroked my hair with her hand. When I looked at her right wrist, I saw a fairly small wound. like a wound formed from a fingernail, I don't know if this is just my guess or not. But I have pretty long, sharp nails. And it can definitely hurt someone's wrist, if I hold and stick my fingernails into that person's wrist, making a pretty visible cut.
"Bella, what's wrong with your wrist? It's a wound, you don't want to treat it?" I asked, I held her right hand and took a closer look, Bella looked a little surprised. But she immediately tried to relax.
"Oh this, I just accidentally scratched it while it was itching. You know that sometimes cold weather makes me a little allergic." She said slowly, I just nodded. She thinks I'm stupid!? don't know which wounds occur because of allergies and wounds that occur because of being gripped?
"Oh I see, don't forget to give ointment. So that the wound doesn't leave a trace, sometimes women are not allowed to have wounds on their bodies." I said again, I smiled very sweetly at her and she nodded in agreement.
"Women are indeed required to be perfect, yes.. that's how this world is, why only women? Because we are like objects to men's eyes." Bella said in a voice so hoarse and deep, I who heard this could only be silent. Once again I do not understand what Bella said.
Not long after, Mommy came back with the maid and Lee. came with quite a number of bodyguards.
"Mom..." I said quietly, when I saw the arrival of two people who were indeed suspects in what had happened to me.
"This is the maid? You said you gave me almonds?" Mommy asked, I looked at her face and looked closely.
"I think so." I answered with uncertainty. "But I wasn't given, I asked her. So I don't think she has anything wrong with me." I said honestly, and Mommy just sighed.
"She didn't give it doesn't mean she didn't do bad things. What if almonds contain compounds that are not good for your body? It's been confirmed that she has bad intentions for you. If you consume too much or add something in almonds, it can cause poisoning. This is rare, but we should always be aware of it. This is because almonds contain hydrocyanic acid, which can trigger nervous system disorders and respiratory system disorders.
Moreover, if you eat too many nuts with added a lot of salt, it will cause problems with the body. This happens because consuming too much salt mixed in nuts can trigger an increase in blood pressure, which if left unchecked will lead to heart disease and stroke. Maybe she did that to you!" Mommy really looks different this time, she's like a woman who is quite over-the-top in saying and doing things.
I don't know if this is in Mommy's nature, or if this is something she shouldn't be doing. For me, guessing on unnecessary things would make things even more messy.
"I did add a little salt to the beans, but I swear I didn't mean anything bad. Even Miss Choon-hee suddenly came to the kitchen and asked for the beans, I don't know why she did that. I took the money and bought new nuts, because this morning Madam asked for a cake made of almonds." The waiter said, I who heard her words could only be silent.
"But still! You should find out more about what my son can eat or not! What if he has an allergy! What if he dies from a nut! Don't be such a dumb servant! I'm paying dearly for you to be more selective !" Mommy shouted loudly, I who heard this could only surrender.
Mommy why is this really? Why look different when you're angry?
"Mom.. Don't be." I said slowly.
"Choon-Hee! Are you going to defend all the people who almost killed you!! Don't close your eyes! Take a good look, that in this world we have to keep ourselves out of even the smallest troubles! You have to remember that!." The screams I received, of course, made me quite surprised...
