Chapter 800 Do what you need to do

Dinner was a somber affair since the matters between Rose and her parents hadn't been cleared up.

Lily tried her best to keep the mood light, but it was clear that no one was in the mood for it.

So after dinner, we all went to our own rooms.

They had tried to put Cecilia in a different room, no doubt this was because of Henry, but she just came to our room without a care. It was as if she was already familiar with this manor, but that wasn't strange since she was Rose's childhood friend in the first place.Ne/w novel chapters are published at novelhall.com

It turned out that the room that we had been given was Rose's room in the first place.

This was where she lived until she was married off the baron.

Now that she was back, she couldn't help feeling a bit nostalgic seeing her old room. However, it wasn't just nostalgia that she felt...

As she looked around the room, I could see that there was a trace of sadness that was also in her eyes. It was as if she was remembering things that she didn't want to remember.

Seeing this, I took another point away from Count Amboise.

Though in my books, it wasn't as if he was anywhere near being positive yet. So it didn't really matter if I took away another point from his total.

In a sense, that was his super power.

He was so far down that it was hard for him to fall any further...

After taking some time to look around her room, Rose took a deep breath and turned to look at me with a calm look as she said, "Well? What's it going to be?"

Rose's expression didn't change as she listened to me, but Cecilia's expression did the more that she listened. It was almost as if she couldn't believe what she was listening to.

When I was done, Cecilia suddenly slammed her fist down on the table in front of us and said, "How could he feel that way about his own daughter?"

But then she revealed a worried look as she looked at Rose.

Rose had a calm look on her face the entire time, as if she wasn't bothered by this.

Though to say that she wasn't bothered by this at all was a lie.

After a long silence, Rose gave a deep sigh before saying, "It seems like there's something I need to discuss with my father."

Both Cecilia and I remained silent as we waited to see what else Rose had to say, but she quickly calmed her face and looked up at me to say, "But before that, you have to take care of my brother."

I was surprised by how calm she was being and I was worried that she might be holding her feelings in.

I was about to move forward to say something, but she raised her hand to stop me and said, "I know what you're about to say and you don't have to worry. I'll support you in whatever you need to do, so you just do what you need to do. After this is over, I'll have a proper talk with my father."

There was a touched feeling that filled my heart and I wanted to say something, but I felt that it would just cheapen the sentiment if I did...

So I just gave a nod and said, "Un."

With that, I gave a snap and there was a dark figure that appeared in the room.

It was Shadow Five.
