Chapter 92
“Grandpa! Dad!”
I ran to my father and grandfather and greeted them gladly.
I knew in advance that the two were going to be here today.
That’s why I brought Maria Patron here.
“If you had told me in advance, your father and grandfather would have been in a little bit of a hurry…”
My father patted me on the head and said.
“I wasn’t on the plan either, but I came all of a sudden.”
Looking back, saying so, I could see Maria Patron and the ladies going berserk.
Gallahan Lombardy, the owner of Gallahan Clothing Stores spread throughout the Empire, and Lulak Lombardy, the owner of the household.
They were whispering among themselves.
My father asked me when he saw such an eternity.
“They’re… Are they Tia’s friend?”
It’s not the right age for me to hang out with them.
Questions arose on my father and grandfather’s faces.
Then Maria Patron and the ladies approached carefully.
I pointed to Maria Patron and said.
“I spilled juice on Lady Patron’s clothes. So I invited her and her friends to buy new clothes. Is it okay, Dad?”
My father looked at Maria Patron’s clothes and said a little surprised.
“Of course, it’s okay. Oh, your clothes are messed up…”
My father stopped talking.
His eyes were on Maria Patron’s necklace.
It seemed like he was mistaken to keep looking at the necklace with shaky eyes.
“I’m a little upset because it’s my favorite clothes, but it’s okay…”
Even though Maria Patron was saying so, my father couldn’t keep talking.
Perhaps he was not sure.
But the necklace was Shananet’s.
Then it was time for Maria Patron to say and go back to the premium dress.
“There you go.”
Grandfather called Maria Patron in a low voice.
“Come here.”
Grandfather’s gaze was exactly stuck in one place.
“Look at the necklace you’re wearing.”

Lulak Lombardy glanced over the young lady in front of him.

The dress she was wearing was stained with juices, but she was brave enough to stand up with the tip of her chin slightly raised.
However, she is not able to face his eyes properly and avoids eye contact.
She was already afraid of Lulak.
She wants to pretend to be confident, but in the end, she’s not a strong person.
It was a common type.
Lulak asked in a calm voice.
“My granddaughter spilled a drink on your clothes?”
“Yes, there was such a small commotion.”
“I apologize for that.”
“Oh, you don’t have to do that. She compensated me for my clothes like this way…”
Lulak nodded at Maria Patron’s words.
“Yeah, that’s a relief. Then can you answer my next question honestly?”
“What’s your question…”
“What’s your relationship with my son-in-law?”
“…Yes?”
Maria Patron’s voice shook loudly.
It was as if she had already been caught hiding her secret.

“I’ll give you a chance, assuming it was a mistake for a while.”
“No, I don’t know what you’re talking about…”
“No. Think again.”
Lulak looked into Maria Patron’s face and said.
“I asked you about your relationship with my son-in-law, Vestian Schultz, and you’d better give me a much better answer than just being clumsy.”1
“Ugh…”
Now Maria Patron was completely crushed by Lulak’s gaze.
Her body trembled, her feet faltered as if she wanted to run away right now.
But there was no sign of sympathy for her from Lulak.
The moment Maria Patron approached, Lulak knew.
The fact that the necklace she’s wearing belongs to her daughter, Shananet.
And the next thing that came to mind was Vestian.
To be exact, she greeted him at the Pellet banquet.
“That necklace belongs to his wife. It belongs to Shananet, my eldest daughter.”
“Well, that can’t be right! You must be mistaken!”
At Maria Patron’s words, Lulak shook his head.
“I don’t know how the person who gave you the necklace explained it. That’s my wife’s keepsake. The initials of my wife Natalia Lombardy are engraved on the back.”
Maria Patron turned the necklace upside down with trembling hands.
It was as Lulak said.
There were small initials engraved that she wouldn’t know.
“If it’s difficult, I’ll give you a choice. Will you become a thief who broke into Lombardy and stole the necklace and be handed over to the Imperial Guard?”
Maria Patron’s heart pounded when she was told about the security guard.
“Or confess your relationship with Vestian Schultz.”
“Well, that’s…”
Maria Patron was biting her lower lip tightly.
Vestian has always called him ‘old man’ and has told her to ignore Lulak Lombardy.
So Maria Patron always thought Lombardy was a joke.
A stupid old man who doesn’t even know that Vestian and herself are stealing money right under his nose.
But Maria Patron realized that it was herself who was stupid.
Lulak Lombardy was a scary man.
That intimidating feeling that made her unable to breathe right now was telling that.
What the hell has she done?.
That’s against Lombardy.
She has regretted it, but it’s too late.
