“You! Where were you when she was going through that?”
I immediately went to protect my servant Daisy from my doll-like cousin yelling at her.
“Lumi, I know you’re furious because of me, but Daisy is my servant. I’ll ask her for her wrongdoings if I have to, so please just let me be alone with her.”
Lumi became silent at my request. I didn’t say anything else but stared at her with eyes that looked like they were begging her to follow what I said. Soon, Lumi broke her silence.
“Hah… Alright, sis,” answered Lumi, but her green eyes were still glaring at Daisy. My cousin’s problem is that she loves me too much. However, she’s doing that because she doesn’t know how scary Daisy can be. Daisy won’t attack her, but it’s better to be wary of her. The quiet types are much scarier when they’re angry!
I got into my room, closed the door, washed up, and changed my clothes. Daisy silently assisted me through it. After I sat by my vanity table, I closed my eyes while feeling a hand squeezing out the dripping water from my hair. Soon, I heard a low voice.
“Aren’t you curious?”
Hearing a voice, I opened my eyes and saw Daisy looking right at me through the mirror. I replied, “I am, but I’m not going to ask if you don’t want to talk about it.”
Daisy made a faint smile, then began to speak as she rubbed my hair with scented oil, “My father and I… were assassins until we escaped the guild. You might not know, but betrayal means death in the Assassin’s guild. We had to find a place to live in hiding. That was when we found the Harrant estate.”
Right, I heard about it too. I heard that our estate treated commoners better than other estates. Because it was located in a remote area, we had a lot of retired mercenaries or other people with bad histories come to settle down.
“We went to visit the lord of the estate so we could purchase a free man’s identity when the lord, your father, asked us to stay. He asked us to work for him and that we will be paid well. My father, who wasn’t my real father, was quite a famous assassin.”
I remembered Daisy’s father Scott’s kind-looking face. Then, I remembered how fierce he was when tending to the garden. His motto was to eradicate all rats that damage the plants’ leaves. But, paying enough money? Father, even if Scott was a skilled man, you sure bragged about money that we didn’t have.
“But my father declined the offer. He said he was too lazy to do it. My father’s dream was to farm,” said Daisy.
Yeah, his love for his garden was beyond imagination. It was he who taught me the enjoyment of gardening. I also learned about my extra income, thanks to that.
“So, we were on our way out after rejecting the offer when a girl came over to me and asked for my name. But her face… It struck me right in the heart. I thought that I would be satisfied for my entire life putting makeup on that face,” continued Daisy.
“Wait… You mean that girl was?”
“Yes. After I saw you, I begged my father to work for your family.”
I became dazed. Huh? But why my face? That’s when something came to my mind, “Marina, if only you got your looks from me, your mommy.”
‘Yeah, I suppose my flawed face had ample room for improvement with makeup.’
“Milady, are you beating yourself again?”
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
