Masters, Are You Going To Imprison My Sister?

Chapter 19

After escaping from the mansion, we fled in a carriage. The carriage was prepared by Alexander. We entered the space hidden under the seat of the carriage and were able to avoid the knights of Count Nigor who checked the carriage unexpectedly.

As all tensions were released, I lost my mind.

The first time I woke up, Aunt Emily was crying, looking at me, and the second time I woke up, I was lying in an unfamiliar room. There were bandages and medicines all around, and Yuria and Emily were lying exhausted.

And when I woke up for the third time, my sister was looking at me and crying.

Lala, please, please, please Please, please, Lala please dont die please Dont leave me alone 

My sister grabbed my hand with her slender and weak hand and prayed earnestly.

I cant be without you. If you die, I will die too 

Oh, I cant leave my sister behind.

My parents died and we were the only ones left. Even if I died, I was confident that she would overcome her sadness and persevere. But my sister was different at that time. Shes a very fragile person and she might have died without me.

I wanted to hold my sisters hand and give her a hug, but my fragile body didnt respond at all. The energy just kept draining out like a hole in a balloon. I closed my eyes, feeling the tears running down my cheeks. Yes, I had a foreboding of death.

But I didnt die. When I woke up for the fourth time, my body felt light as if I had never been injured. My sister was holding  empty bottle and smiling as she looked down at me.

When I asked what it was, my sister said briefly.

Portion.

How is my sister able to buy potions? Wheres the money come from? What did she do? I grabbed my sister and spit out a lot of questions. But she did not answer. She just grabbed my hand and knelt in front of me.

Lala, lets never part again. Well be together forever.

In the end, there was no answer.

Could it be that she bought the potion with the money she received from Alexander? How the heck did she buy it ? No, why didnt you tell me Alexanders words in the first place? Instead, she told me that I had lost my memory and asked me to hide in the duchy with her.

By the way, Aunt Emily even allowed us to serve as a maid, so it wasnt a bad as per say.

The Duke hated the incompetent and did not like the Count, James Nigor. He didnt invite us to his birthday party or tea party, and he didnt converse with servants. James Nigor never set foot in the duchy in his lifetime.

If Layla lived in the dukes family as a maid, she would never have met him for the rest of her life. But the Duke invited Count Nigor to the countess birthday party. Layla didnt know his intentions.

Not only the Duke, but also many prestigious nobles said that they did not like Count Nigor. If you have a letter of recommendation from the duke, you will be able to move to a place like that easily.

After quitting being a maid in the County, I wanted to become a maid again and live in hiding. If we were caught, we would abandon the place where our parents graves and memories remain, and then would have to flee abroad.

Its so sad when one thinks about it. The perpetrator is stationary, as if nothing is wrong, and we, the victims, have to run away?

Yuria didnt tell you, did she?

Noisy

Alexander looked down at me quietly and opened his mouth.

Well, being in the Duchy wasnt a bad choice. And the Duke of Emers doesnt like Count Nigor. He would have never allowed him to set foot on his land for the rest of his life. But Now things are different. In the future, the Duke will continue to invite the Count and try to get closer.

Why?

He has something to gain.

What is it?

I cant say any more. Anyway, get out of here as soon as possible. Isnt that what you want? Because one day you will meet the Count if you stay.

I nodded slowly. He was correct. If the Count continued to come in the future, she had no reason to be here. Alexander removed removes his hand from the bush and sighed.

The Count still has not forgotten your sister. All the women he brings look exactly like your sister. Brown hair and blue eyes like someone in love. Haha. its funny. That garbage is love. What do you think would happen if he met Yuria?

Please run away until its all over. You have no idea how hard I tried to keep the Count from finding you.

You did that ? Why?

I looked up at him in surprise.

I thought Count Nigor was not looking for us, so we would find a new place and forget about it, start afresh. Still, my anxiety did not go away, so I was a little wary. But the truth was that  Alexander was helping us. I looked him in the eye and smiled sadly.

Why? Didnt you tell me when you left the mansion?

I dont remember. I think I said something, something 

it was from me because he took it..

Alexander in her memory was grinding his teeth with a face holding back his anger.

Ive been putting up with this feeling for the sake of  I cant stand it any longer to see you guys.

Just by looking at his eyes, I could guess he seemed to be running towards the Count. What did Count Nigor take from you? That was no aura of one to ask questions. I had no choice but to nod as I recalled slowly. I moved my head, feeling my brain inside churn and my eyes tremble.

It seems the heat was too high.

Lets go. Theres nothing good about running into Oberon, so you better hide somewhere.

Alexander said so and headed back to the mansion. I stared blankly at his back, then recalled what I had to do. It was no time for hiding. Having learned that Count Nigor was obsessed with my sister, he will find her sooner or later. If Alexander was to meet Oberon, it was clear that the wicked and wretched servant would run to the Count and tell him about my sister.

And now, instead of just finding her and locking her up somewhere, I had to ask her why she hadnt told me Alexanders words. My thoughts were puzzled.

There were too many things to think about.

Now, my body was so heavy that it was difficult to stand up. Massaging my forehead dragging myself, I headed towards the mansion. If I had a cane, I would have been able to go to the mansion more comfortably. Walking a little further, I arrived at the place where the party was in full swing. The maid was opening the gift boxes one by one that the duke was supposed to have received. The Duke was next to him, watching indifferently. Every time a box was opened, people looked at the contents and exclaimed with excitement, or commenting it was a great thing. I found Oberon stuck in it and quickly hid myself.

Dont tremble  Dont tremble, Layla. Its been a few months since I escaped from there, but why does my heart still seem to be there?

The following are accessories prepared by Master Osses.

A small box was opened, and the red accessory I picked was revealed. The light it emitted when it came in contact with the sunlight was so bright that it hurt my eyes.

Ah Yes, it is very beautiful. He is my son.

A voice without enthusiasm, an expression without emotion.

An insensitive look that doesnt look human.

Osses walked in front of her with a smile and bowed.

Im glad to hear that you like it. Ill help you wear it, mother.

Okay. There, maid, get me the necklace and earrings that I have been wearing.

After carefully removing the Duchess necklace and earrings, the maid handed her Osses gift. The Duchess put on his accessories and turned to Osses.

Its pretty, right?

Yes, you are beautiful. Its like a spring fairy has come down.

Next was Isleys gift. It seemed a white coated boring sword with no decorations to her, but from what people said, it was a great and very rare sword. This time, the Duchess didnt seem very impressed. Osses stood by Isley for a moment and then went into the mansion.

I looked away from the nobles playing family games and shifted my gaze to the maids, but I couldnt see my sister. I asked people around the whereabouts of Aunt Emily or my sister, but no one really knew. Then, a maid said, a servant was walking around the garden pointing to the building when she found my sister rushing into it, she said.

I entered the building, passed the front door and looked all over the hallway on the first floor. When I climbed the stairs to reach the hallway on the second floor, my eyes started shaking. Strength left my legs and I fell down in the hallway. I didnt have the strength to move any more.

My eyes were fading as I lost my consciousness. My body seemed to be falling. I mustered all of my strength, I got up, and leaned against the wall, groaning in pain. I tried to stand up against the wall, but couldnt. Now its over. I cant move.

I had a fever and I couldnt even think properly. Headache, stomach ache, and numbness in legs. I feel like Im going to faint soon.

Then someone came up the stairs near me. They seemed to be calling my name, but I couldnt process. Besides, my vision was already get dark, so I couldnt see who it was.

I reached out and grabbed the person. It felt like a silky and smooth fabric and it looked like I was holding onto the hem of their clothes.

Excuse me Im sorry Im really sorry Cant we find my sister, Yuria? Find my sister and bring her to me please? No  just dont bring her. If she sees me, my sister will be worried. Cant you just tell my sister to hide somewhere Or else, please stay by my sisters side

..La-Lala

The voice, presumed to be a mans, was cut off. Like a broken radio. I keep saying something 

Uh, thats my name, right? Im sorry. It hurts so much I cant hear you very well.

Suddenly darkness fell. Now I couldnt see or hear anything.

I felt my body lean to the side and toss to the floor.

Lala You are so strange.

And suddenly, my body floated in the air.

You obviously liked me. So, I was trying to connect with your sister. Then all of a sudden you stopped me from getting closer to your sister and started hating me. Did I do anything wrong?

I realized that someone was holding me because of the feeling of fabric on my cheeks, the warmth on my back or under my legs, and the scent that felt good but somehow unfamiliar.

Now, you change your attitude and tell me to stay by Yurias side. I cant quite figure out what you want. Thats why I keep worrying about you.

In the shattering consciousness, only that voice could be heard strangely and clearly.
