I Won’t Pick Up The Trash I Threw Away Again

them for. 

 

“He does think we did anything to make his baby stillbirth, doesn’t he?”

 

“I think so.
Other than that, there’s no reason to call us like this.”

 

The people, who were buzzing, shut their mouths in an instant.
It was because Philen appeared in front of the railing of the long hallway connected to the central staircase.

 

He was quite far away, so it was hard for them to see what kind of expression he was making, but they could clearly tell that he was furious.

 

Of course, he was.
Because it was the baby he had been waiting for.

  

The servants who knew that fact better than anyone else put their necks in like a turtle and read Philen’s mood.

 

“If you turned yourself in, I wouldn’t have done this.
So, I’ll ask another question.”

 

Philen came down the stairs, unbuttoning his shirt that was tightening his neck.

 

“Have you ever seen any of these people do anything suspicious?”

 

And then, he said while looking at the servants, who looked at each other.

 

“Anything is fine.
I’ll reward those who give me information.”

 

Despite Philen’s words, the servants remained silent and looked into each other’s eyes.

 

Their behaviors made Philen feel even more irritated.

BANG-! 

 

Philen hit the railing hard.
As a result, the wound on his right hand ripped open and the bandage was dyed bright red.

 

Mavel looked at Philen’s hand in bewilderment.

 

“Duke, your hand…”

 

“The important thing wasn’t my hand right now! But my stillbirth baby!”

 

Red veins were clearly visible in Philen’s eyes.

 

“My first child was a stillbirth.
And he was poisoned by someone!”

 

Poison? 

 

All the servants were surprised and took deep breaths.

 

They knew that something went wrong with Cecily’s child, but they didn’t know that she had been poisoned.

 

Before Philen spoke, the only people who knew about it were her doctor, Mavel; the butler, Harchen; and her exclusive maid, Ellie.

 

“Co, come to think of it…”

 

At the sound of someone muttering quietly, all the eyes of the servants turned to her.

  

Philen also looked at the person who said that. 

 

Common brown hair with freckles.

 

It was Ellie, Cecily’s exclusive maid.

 

Ellie, who received everyone’s attention at once, was bewildered and covered her mouth with her hands.

 

“I, I apologize.
I said something weird… ”

 

“I guess you have seen something?”

 

Philen, who had completely come down the stairs, approached Ellie and asked.

 

Ellie couldn’t look directly at Philen, so she hurriedly bowed her head.

 

Her face turned white like a blank sheet of paper.

 

“I don’t know if I could say I saw it, or not…”

 

“Anything doesn’t matter.
Tell me everything you know.”

 

As Philen urged her, Ellie hesitated before opening her mouth.

 

“That day, I saw the chief maid sneaking into the kitchen with a strange vial.”

 

“Misa?” 

 

When an unexpected person was mentioned, Philen frowned.

 

Ellie shook her hands and hurriedly added.

 

“O, of course, I didn’t mean that the vial was a poison.
I just saw her carrying it in, and I had no idea what was inside.”

 

“Come to think of it, wasn’t the chief maid the one who brought Young Lady Cecily’s snack that day?

 

The words that the servant suddenly spat out began to stir up the other servants. 

 

Of course, no one said that Misa would be the culprit. 

 

Everyone said there must be some misunderstanding, and that Misa couldn’t be the one who did that.

“The chief maid, there’s no way that Misa did that.”

 

It was the same with Harchen.

 

He spoke to Philen seriously.

 

“Doesn’t Master also know that Misa is not someone who would do that?”

 

“…it’s not something I can guarantee.”

 

After thinking about it for a moment, he said something that didn’t make sense and looked back at the maids.

 

“Where’s Misa now?”

 

At Philen’s question, the maids looked at each other.

 

“Come to think of it, the chief maid, I haven’t seen her since yesterday.”

 

“I thought she was out of town.”

 

“Harchen, where’s Misa?” 

 

If Misa had gone out of town, Harchen, the butler, would have known.

 

So he asked him, but Harchen didn’t know either.

  

She went into the kitchen with a suspicious vial.

 

And that day, even though she was not in charge, she brought Cecily’s snack.

 

And after the incident broke out, she didn’t show up.

 

Many things were suspicious.

 

Misa was the maid who had been managing the mansion even before Philen was born.

 

For Philen, she was like family.

 

So, if possible, he didn’t want to doubt her, but under the circumstances, he couldn’t help but doubt her.  

 

“Find Misa immediately.”

   

Philen ordered the servants.
The servants moved busily, looking for Misa.

 

“Harchen, lead me to Misa’s room.
I’ll search her room myself.”

 

“Yes, Master.”

 

Harchen led Philen to Misa’s room with a solemn look.

 

It was right under the room Leila used to use.

 

Her room was firmly locked.

 

“Open it.”

 

Harchen opened the door with the master key he had.

 

As soon as he opened the door, the smell of fishy blood hit them.

 

“…!” 

 

Misa was lying on the floor with a knife stuck in her heart.
