Necklace?

Did someone lose Shananet's necklace?

The maid, who can't raise her head now, is a person who has worked in Lombardy's mansion for decades.

She has a strong personality, so she won't be so contemplative about most things.

"Ahh! We can look for the maids who cleaned the bedrooms this morning..."

"There you go."

Shananet, who was standing still with her back turned, said.

It was as monotonous as if it were someone else's business.

But even with that little voice, the maid stiffened.

"No, Madame Shananet. I'll do whatever it takes to get the criminal..."

"Nelly."

Shananet called the maid's name.

"I think I lost my necklace."

"...Yes?"

"Come to think of it, I went out a few days ago wore the necklace. I must have lost it outside then."

Lie.

Shananet values the necklace, which is her mother's keepsake.

Anyone living in the mansion knew she does not wear it unless it was a really special day.

The maid seemed unable to find anything to say.

"Ha, but..."

"So don't make people suffer."

It was not something that could be easily covered.

Like the Lombardy family, high-ranking nobles take this kind of thing very strictly, in a place where there were precious objects strewn everywhere but ordinary people couldn't even see for their whole life.

When an employee touches the owner's stuff, the employee's accommodation is completely overturned on that day.

But if you don't get what you're looking for, you'll have to take some powerful servants and torture them to confess.

Perhaps the maid was aware in anticipation of such a future.

"Do you understand me?"

Shananet, who still hasn't shown her face, asked in a stern voice.

"Yes, yes, Madame Shananet."

"Th, thank you....!"

The maid, who probably cleaned the room, said, barely holding her quivering body.

"Let me rest."

The maids and other employees all went outside at Shananet's command.

I was wondering if she should go to her.

Somehow it doesn't seem right to leave Shananet alone.

The door closes with a clatter.

It was that moment.

Shananet's body, which was standing upright, collapsed.

"...Huh!"

She looked so small from behind, sitting there and covering his mouth.

"Uh..."

Crane looked at it and tried to approach her, but I shook my head and don't let him go.

"Mother..."

It was because Gilliu and Mayron, who were watching the situation in the room, approached Shananet.

After hesitating for a while, the twins carefully touched Shananet's shoulder.

Perhaps because of her sons, Shananet tried to pick herself up, but it didn't seem easy.

"Ugh..."

Little Crane is already teary-eyed just by looking at Shananet and the twins.

"Let's come over next time."

I said in a small voice, pulling Crane's hand slightly.

And turned around.

"Grandfather...?"

My grandfather was looking at Shananet with sad eyes.

Looking at the back of Shananet, who had collapsed for a while, the grandfather quietly turned around.

He didn't say anything, but I thought it meant to follow him.

I took Crane's hand and came out to the garden with my grandfather.

Like a habit every day, following my grandfather who takes a walk on the same road.

For Crane grandfather take a walk slower than usual.

Crane walked quietly without saying, perhaps he was aware of grandfather's feelings.

And finally, we reached the evergreen forest.

It was a place where memories of grandfather and grandmother remained.

Grandfather stopped and said, gently touching the biggest tree.

"Do you know why Shananet is so sad when she lost a necklace?"

"I heard it was my grandmother's keepsake."

I answered carefully.

"It's a precious thing. I'd be really sad if something so precious disappeared."

My grandfather, who touched the pine tree as if he missed it, smiled back at me.

And he patted my head.

It was a touch that was a little lackluster.

"Yes, I can't believe you understood Shananet's feelings. Our Tia is very kind."

And my grandfather spoke mumbled.

"Shananet was very close to Natalia. She was the first and the only daughter among her siblings. Natalia gave it to Shananet herself just before she closed her eyes."

The necklace was more special than I thought.2

Now that she's lost such a keepsake, how great a sense of loss must be.

"If it's something so precious, she must find it at all costs..."

"Aunt Shananet is a peace-loving person in Lombardy."

"...What?"

"It's just, I guess she's like that."

I said with a small smile to my grandfather, who looked at me in surprise.

It was a conclusion that I came to think about why Shananet divorced in her previous life, losing so much.

Shananet did not want to break the peace of Lombardy because of her problems.

She never dreamed that Vestian had another woman, and she carried everything for Lombardy and the twins.

Shananet-like, that was a foolishly good choice. [1]

I thought for a moment, and carefully patted my grandfather's sleeve and asked.

"Just in case, Grandpa."
