Dear Broom Knight

#386 - Sophia's suspicion

Rosalind said with a face full of melancholy, "Why is her luck so good?

No wonder so many outstanding men are willing to be devoted to her."

Jonathan looked up at the sky and down at the earth, just not wanting to look at this princess who had started to be sentimental again.

The luckiest thing in his life was that the boss he followed was straightforward enough, even if he was immoral, he was direct about it, and wouldn't come up with a few sour words when he was idle.

At this time, Sophia was too lazy to cooperate with Rosalind.

She naturally understood what Jonathan had just said.

Then she didn't need to continue hiding her nature, and she didn't need to coax Rosalind anymore... No man would allow a being who could bewitch people's hearts in his court.

Of course, she knew that as long as Baron Lowry trusted the White Dragon King enough, the Reid family's identity would inevitably be exposed.

However, Cybephia would not care about the future of an affiliated family at all.

Since they were willing to use the Reid family to observe Lowry's position, personality, and temperament, then they had to put themselves on the gambling table.

Unfortunately, they lost the bet.

Moreover, that baron obviously didn't intend to show up, and was unwilling to welcome Rosalind's delegation into his territory... The colorful lights shining in the valley, and the banyan tree aerial roots disguised as trees that were already taller than the city walls, all proved this point.

Rosalind probably wouldn't dare to go in either.

Valera's position in that baron's heart didn't need to be said, you could understand it with a glance.

Princess Rosalind's dowry was only so much money, and a large part of it was just equivalents.

Luxurious jewelry, expensive clothing, and various magical oddities that couldn't be converted into gold or resources for a while were the main part.

If it were an ordinary noble like the Reid family who only relied on running small businesses to make a living, even if their family had dozens of people and two or three hundred servants, they could live for 30 years without doing anything.

Rosalind didn't feel anything about her dowry at all, but... someone actually had so much money, and could spend this money on a subordinate who didn't have much talent and was only loyal, Sophia couldn't imagine what kind of person this Baron Lowry was.

It's too... amazing... Why is it that such a person could never be used by her?

Daisy's flattering flattery and meaningless praise rang in her ears.

Sophia's hand, hidden in the large skirt, had her thumb and index finger together, nervously rubbing... Why, couldn't it be hers?

Rosalind cast a cold glance at Sophia under her long eyelashes.

Daisy's overly stupid and embarrassing flattery made her feel very uncomfortable.

If it were Sophia, she would never let Rosalind's words fall to the ground like that, splashing mud everywhere.

But Rosalind also understood that Sophia was willing to follow her for a good future.

Even if she was dragged down by the Reid family, as long as Rosalind was still willing to use her, then Sophia's life wouldn't be too difficult.

It was precisely because she knew this that Rosalind had used Sophia so thoroughly for some time.

However, those lunatics in Cybephia actually directly overturned the boat.

Sophia, and her Reid family, would probably have a hard time in the future... Regardless of whether the Reid family did business or established social circles through legitimate means, all those in the know would silently assume that they used evil means.

Especially those who had some under-the-table transactions with them, they would definitely push all these things onto the Reid family.

Rosalind really didn't understand what the Cybephia family was going crazy about?

Could it be that they would have a better time by sacrificing the Reid family?

This ability to unconsciously obey their will, Cybephia also possesses it!

It was because she felt that Cybephia had to carefully hide their existence that she acted so decisively.

Alas~

It's over now, Sophia, who knows Rosalind's true attitude towards her, is obviously going to break the pot.

People who grew up in the palace, of course, understand that things have reached the point where even people of Jonathan's level know about it, then basically any noble with a little ability can know everything.

Then the news will inevitably reach Alex's ears.

No matter how much Rosalind wanted to test Alex's mind, it was impossible to put a big bomb like Sophia into the Icefield Royal Palace.

She was now very grateful that, in order to cover up some things, she had always shown that she valued Daisy very much, and was obviously planning to let this silly girl be her chief maid.

Otherwise, some things would be very embarrassing.

Really... she clearly didn't imagine it like this!

What on earth is Cybephia going crazy about?

Or, does that Baron Lowry really have the value that makes them spare no expense?

And Sophia, who failed to attract him, became that discarded piece, and was directly abandoned?

Rosalind withdrew her gaze, in that case, Sophia had indeed become a burden to her.

But, she knew very well that she could be arrogant and self-centered, she could be greedy for love, and she didn't even have to be too shrewd, but she must never appear too cold-blooded, too ruthless, too easy to abandon.

Originally, she was the one in a weak position, and if she was judged to be of no value to the Northern Lands, but rather a potential threat, then she would be completely finished.

Rosalind knew that she had to grasp that degree no matter what.

Just like those cultists who still show humanity... like that Pat who is still praised in the lower classes.

What a joke... At least half of the many lives that died at her hands were innocent.

As a result, just because he was an evil person with principles, he received a lot of praise?

Rosalind thought it was funny, but it didn't stop her from learning from it.

She thought for a while, then softly instructed Sophia: "Sophia, there have been a bit too many things going on recently, and I can't handle them all at once, so, go manage my dowry, and count it every day.

If anything is consumed too much, especially food and drinks, be sure to report it to me in time.

No matter whether Green Maple Valley welcomes me or not, their things are good.

Especially those foods that have been stored for a long time, be sure to buy more.

When we return to the royal capital, no one will provide food along the way!"

Jonathan took a small step back, not wanting to be shrouded in that false aura.

Anyway, no matter what these people were planning to do, he had already peeled off Sophia's skin according to the king's order.

Sophia suddenly raised her head and squeezed out a look of surprise: "Your Highness!"

Her expression quickly concealed even that trace of reluctance, revealing a natural gratitude: "I will definitely manage Your Highness's finances well!"

Rosalind nodded slightly: This can be regarded as another way to make the most of it, right?

How many people can lie without being moved when facing Sophia, who is good at bewitching people's hearts, when doing financial reports?

With Sophia's shrewdness, as long as she is willing, those abnormalities will definitely be found out by her.

Although... it's not the same as originally expected, but, at least it didn't waste so much time communicating.

Daisy looked left and right blankly, and suddenly asked: "So, will Sophia be riding in the luggage cart in the future?"

Rosalind looked at her with an angry expression: "What nonsense are you talking about! Sophia can only sit next to me!"

Sophia suddenly looked straight at Daisy, and a trace of doubt arose in her heart: This Daisy, she is obviously always half-understood and fooled, but why is her speech always so easy to arouse the darkness in people's hearts?

Daisy, who noticed Sophia's gaze, smiled provocatively at her, her eyes full of mockery and smugness.

But Sophia didn't deliberately ignore her like she used to, but stared at Daisy firmly with a thoughtful look.

Daisy, who was getting goosebumps all over her body from her stare, directly bumped into her fiercely.

"Daisy! Stop it!" Rosalind, who had never paid much attention to the infighting between them, was taken aback, "What are you going crazy about?"

"Her eyes are so annoying when she looks at me, it makes me want to dig them out!" Daisy honestly stopped, but she didn't give in verbally, "Isn't it just because she thinks I replaced her position?

Your Highness, why not just send her back to the royal capital, what's the use of her? Maybe she will plot against me behind my back!"

"Stop talking nonsense!" Rosalind said irritably, "Sophia won't, do you really think you can become the chief maid so easily?

Too unruly!"

Then she softened her tone and said a little more gently: "Daisy, even if Sophia can't follow me back to the royal palace, and can only handle financial matters for me outside, the chief maid can only be her.

Unless you can pass the court etiquette guidance assessment during this period.

Even though I have always been very favored by my father, there is no room for willfulness in this kind of rule.

If you don't have the qualifications, you just can't do it.

Daisy, do you think you can do it?

Among my personal maids, there are still several who have passed the assessment, but they are not as strong as Sophia!

They wouldn't be willing..."

Princess Rosalind didn't continue, but Daisy, who had been involved in her plans, instantly understood one thing: She would never become the real chief maid in her life.

She couldn't possibly go to the Icefield Royal Family to take the Northern Land Royal Family's etiquette class, right?
