Chapter 3092: Will Just Drag Their Feet
Early the next morning, Mizuki started preparing for the handover ceremony.
The first thing to do was to invite everyone from the royal family to attend, and in front of them, let Mordecai personally say the words, the agency was handed over to her to be in charge.
After this, even if that group of people had any more criticisms, they would not be able to shake her position and rights.
Soon, the royal nobles appeared in front of Mizuki.
At the moment, they didn’t realize that Mizuki was the real mastermind behind the scenes, so they just raised their chins condescendingly as if they were treating an ordinary servant.
“Where’s Rebecca, why didn’t she come out and let you, a servant, come out to serve?”
Mizuki had a respectful smile on her face, “The Countess is still freshening up, she should be out soon, please wait.”
“What a laugh, it’s not like she was crowned the youngest earl today, much less the youngest earl’s own mother, as to dress up so grandly?”
“That’s right, those who don’t know, would think that she’s the main character today!”
“Anyway, I got used to it a long time ago, she’s not happy every time she doesn’t make a bit of a scene.”
…
The crowd spoke with an extraordinarily high level of vigor as you said one thing and I said another.
The contempt for the Countess between the words was simply undisguised.
But in fact, they weren’t like that in the beginning.
It was just that when they came back after that tour, they felt that the Countess had completely changed as if she had taken over her body.
Or rather, it was a complete release of nature.
That was why they had become this despised appearance now.
But no matter what, they all hated the Countess now.
Mizuki listened to the taunts and mockery of the crowd, always wearing a bland smile on her face.
The fiercer they cursed, the better it would be for herself.
After all, how could a straw countess possibly pick up the slack?
Then, if she got the charge of the castle, it wouldn’t be so abrupt that everyone would question it.
On a more important note, with Rebecca at the front drawing fire, she could do her own thing without worry.
It had been like this in the past.
Everyone only focused on scolding Rebecca for her incompetence as a countess, and would not think that she was actually overstepping her bounds as a “wise assistant”.
It’s good!
Just as she was thinking, the Countess came over.
The crowd swept a glance at her outfit today, and there were a few more points of disdain in their eyes, “Oh my god, Rebecca, what on earth are you wearing today!”
Even Mizuki couldn’t stand to look at her, reaching out to pull Rebecca into a corner and reprimanding her in a low voice, “Did you dress up like this on purpose, look at you, what kind of an occasion is today, don’t you know?”
Rebecca aggrieved baba, lowered her head to look at her own dress up, her voice became smaller and smaller, “I … thought that I would be leaving here in a while, I always have to wear a little lighter, so I didn’t wear the evening dress you prepared for me.”
Are you kidding me, if you wear an evening gown, how else can you escape?Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
Mizuki: “…”
Even if you don’t wear an evening gown, then you can’t just come out in short sleeves and jeans.
Look at the servants serving beside her, they are all dressed more formally than Rebecca!
“So what now, do I go back and change again?” Rebecca asked apprehensively.
Mizuki swept a glance at Mordecai, who was not far away and already heading this way, and helplessly shook her head, “It’s too late.”
Leaving the scene now would instead make these people’s mouths break.
“But didn’t you say that it’s inappropriate for me to be dressed like this, I can’t even compare to the maid serving next to me.” Rebecca weakly opened her mouth.
