Episode 224 – The Countess With Many Secrets
Alberto and Nina’s engagement was announced, and the date for the engagement ceremony was officially set.
The day the two held their engagement ceremony was exactly one week after Alberto returned.
The servants of Count Meydern’s family were busy preparing for the engagement ceremony.
However, even though most people are preparing for an engagement ceremony for the first time, it looks natural, as if water is flowing.
The reason this is possible is because the head maid, Michelle, is the person in charge of this engagement ceremony.
Maid Jean-Michel is someone who has worked since she was the head of the Maidern family.
So, she had watched the current Count Meydern’s engagement ceremony from beginning to end.
What she had experienced and what she had learned from her previous maid, Jang, became one.
Under Michel’s leadership, Alberto and Nina’s engagement ceremony was proceeding without hesitation.
Alberto, the protagonist of the engagement ceremony, was busy choosing clothes to wear to Michelle’s engagement ceremony.
Since Michelle had been very involved in Alberto’s growth since he was a child, she devoted as much attention to it as her own grandson and did to her engagement.
“Hmm, wouldn’t this be okay?”
Even if Alberto shows a little discomfort.
“No, big master. The engagement ceremony is a very precious ceremony. So you have to wear the best clothes.”
He was of no use in front of Michelle, who had known him for a long time.
While Alberto was preparing for her engagement ceremony with Michel’s help, Nina was sitting across from the person who would become her mother-in-law.
Nina Gratias Esselton.
She is the woman who will become the next mistress of the Maidern family.
Elena Maria Meydern.
A woman who is the current mistress of the Maidern family and will soon become Nina’s mother-in-law.
A small table placed between two people.
Two tea cups placed on top of it, and a tea kettle full of tea.
Various refreshments placed on a plate.
Among them were several of the Countess’s favorite snacks.
When she welcomes her guests, she always brings out her favorite sweets.
Anyone who knew she always kept track of how many of her favorite snacks she put out when she invited them.
“Get in before it gets cold.”
The total number of snacks on the plate in front of Nina is six.
She doesn’t put out six cookies unless she really likes the guest.
In other words, Nina is the person Elena welcomes the most right now.
“Yes, Countess.”
But is it because she feels burdened by being in front of the person who will become her own mother-in-law?
Or perhaps she felt awkward sitting in front of the mistress of the family she once served.
Nina’s treatment of Elena made her feel slightly uncomfortable.
“Nina.”
“Yes, Countess.”
At the call of her future mother-in-law, Nina, in her slightly trembling voice her her her her, called her her her her her Countess her her her her.
But she frowned as if she was displeased with it.
“Uh huh, don’t call me that.”
“… Yes, mother.”
It wasn’t until she heard the name “Mother” From Nina’s mouth that Elena’s face smiled brightly.
Her smile is as touching as a rose blooming on the shore of a calm lake.
“Okay, call me that from now on.”
A satisfied smile spread across Elena’s face as she looked at Nina.
“You know what? Actually, I was eyeing you as Al’s best friend.”
“Pal… “You mean?”
The word ‘best friend’ came out of Elena’s mouth
Best friend.
This was an old saying that meant like-minded friends.
“Okay. Because it wasn’t easy to find someone who knew, understood, and cared for Alberto as well as you.”
After answering Nina’s question, Elena sipped her tea with a bitter smile.
“Al, do you know why that child’s eyes look like that?”
Elena turned to another topic to brighten her mood.
What she brought up was a story about Alberto’s eyes.
“No, no. Do you know why his eyes look like that?”
Nina, who instinctively tried to say “Master,” But canceled it, was curious about the intention behind Elena’s words coming out of her mouth her.
In fact, she was curious too.
Neither Count Meydern nor the Countess were inferior to the other in appearance.
However, unlike the other two, Alberto was born with very narrow eyes.
Alberto, who was born so thin that he was called squinted, had his handsome appearance belittled by his squinted eyes.
“Okay. I’m not saying that because he’s my son, Alberto. “That kid was objectively a really good-looking kid.”
“Kid… “You said it was?”
“You know. Because that child had been kidnapped.”
“Yes?”
Nina opened her eyes wide as she heard the words coming out of Elena’s mouth.
She couldn’t believe that Alberto had been kidnapped.
A genius swordsman who reached the level of the youngest sword master.
Such a genius prosecutor was kidnapped?
Who on earth would believe that?
“Hehe, okay. You would think so. “How on earth did that great sword master get kidnapped?”
Did Elena even anticipate Nina’s reaction?
A smile of unknown meaning was still hanging on the corner of her mouth.
“Originally, that child was a very attractive child with bright and cute eyes. However, someone kidnapped that child when he was young.”
Elena began to recall her past.
The memories of that day, which were like feathery clouds scattered across the sky, began to coalesce into one cloud.
But that was only for a moment, and Elena dispersed the cloud of her memories.
It may have been a long time ago, but what parent likes to reminisce about the day she almost lost her beloved son?
Memories of that terrible day are something I rarely want to recall.
“After many twists and turns, she was able to save the child, but the wounds of that day caused many changes in the child.”
Elena looks back on some of her memories of that day, gives a rough explanation, and sighs.
It was difficult for her to remember that day.
“If it’s too hard, you don’t have to tell me. “Mother.”
“It’s okay. When the child returned with a wound, the wound around his eye healed, and after the wound appeared, Alberto’s eye gradually began to turn squinted.”
From Elena’s mouth her her her, it was the moment when the secret of why Alberto’s eyes were narrowed began to be revealed one by one.
“Originally, I had really clear and pure eyes, but since that day, those eyes have disappeared everywhere, and only dark eyelashes have taken their place.”
At the same time, Elena lifted both her hands and gently grabbed both of Nina’s hands.
“So I am so grateful that you became Alberto’s partner.”
“Why?”
“Because the other employees were afraid to leave that child in charge.”
The words that came out of Elena’s mouth were words that could have been shocking to Nina.
“Were you afraid of eggs?”
“… Okay. To be honest, we were a little scared too. Both he and I managed to endure it with superhuman patience, but that child has established himself as someone who spreads fear to the people of the territory ever since he was young.”
Seeing Elena saying that it was all because of my karma, Nina’s questions arose.
“Why is that your mother’s karma?”
“… “It’s because of me that Alberto became like that.”
The words that came out of Elena’s mouth came as yet another shock to Nina.
From noble mtl dot nete
Alberto’s childhood kidnapping happened because of Elena?
But when she thought that way, she could understand Elena’s behavior before her.
Because of her her own karma her her her, her her children her her her she are in danger.
What parent could ignore this?
There will be no one.
No one.
So Elena did her best to help Alberto live without any shortcomings.
As part of that, she placed Nina next to Alberto.
Because, when everyone else was afraid of Alberto, Nina was the one person who took care of Alberto, along with Michelle.
So, it was natural for Elena to hire Nina as Alberto’s exclusive maid.
It was only then that Nina found out about all that had happened and was able to figure out the inside story of how she had become Alberto’s exclusive maid.
And here another question passed through her head.
‘What on earth did your mother do in the past?’
Otherwise, would she dare to show up at the Sword Master’s estate and kidnap his son?
It was something that was completely beyond her common sense
Seeing Nina like that, Elena gave an expression of determination that it was finally time to reveal everything about her.
“Listen carefully, Nina.”
And finally from her mouth
“Everything I say from now on is the truth.”
The secret of this world that not everyone knew about.
“Actually, I was a member of a secret organization that fought to protect this world.”
This is the story of the great heroes who fought to protect the world in the shadows.
“I could hear the prophecy there.”
There she heard a prophecy.
“The prophecy that my first child will be the only enemy of evil who will save this world.”
An ominous prophecy that is hard to believe and that one does not want to believe.
