The Resetting Lady

“…….”

That is a lie.

What they say is not a proper suspect. It was certain. Because the aristocrats here were Raymond, and they were now trespassing and pressuring Karen.

They didn't have this authority. But for now, playing the maid named Kelly, it was best not to say it, but to insist. But Lind continued to say whether she thought Karen would understand.

"Think it over. What would it look like to be alone in a mansion like this? This is never normal."

"Mr. Raymond doesn't really like people."

Actually, it's a lie.

Karen replied, giggling inwardly. But Lind kept telling Karen enthusiastically if she didn't know that.

"We need to take care of 100 people in places like this. Also, he is not doing his duty properly as a baron in this area. Karen, good. I know you're trying to believe in Raymond, but you shouldn't believe him."

“…….”

Whether Karen was silent or not, he continued. It seemed to be more conscious of Verdick at the end. Unless Lind was talking to Karen, Verdick, who had lost his patience, seemed to slap Karen on the cheek right away.

"Icella was his fiancee. And then one day he suddenly went missing. And not long after that, all the users of the mansion were fired. Among them were his relatives, and there was a hunting ground that took care of him since he was young. How do you trust a man who has kicked everyone out and locked himself in the house?"

“…….”

Raymond did it entirely for Karen.

"I think you're Karen Haier. Because you're missing and your face is the same as Karen."

"I'm Kelly, not Karen."

"…get rid of it."

Verdick growled from behind. Lind spoke to Karen again urgently.

"I've told you many times, gentleman, that you're not right. I'm not who you think I am, and Lord Raymond isn't who you think I am."

Although he didn't believe it, Karen had to repeat it like a parrot.

"Caran, you should be Karen."

"I can't help it because I can't give you an answer. I think it's better for the gentleman to die and find God."

Lind looked back at Verdick with an embarrassed look. Berdick Evans nodded.

"Tell me, she must be Karen Haier."

"Okay."

The man lowered his voice.

"…Miss Karen Haier, your father is dead."

Lord Haier couldn't overcome his grief when you disappeared. I have to go back.

"Madam, answer me. Are you Karen Haier? That's what we think. And you have to leave here with us. Before we bury the Lord Haier, we should see him for the last time."

“…….”

Karen agonized over the unexpected story. It was a familiar concern after a long time. I had to think about what expression I liked here. I had to choose what kind of reaction was good. It was hard to know what kind of feelings you felt now. It was a sense that was in favor of the world again.

"…I."

So far, Karen has only had to show her face as Kelly, not Karen. No matter how unreliable Berdyk was, he had to stick to his attitude. He had no father, and he grew up in the hands of wandering gypsies, and the only family had to be Raymond.

But Verdick doesn't believe it. He is sure that Karen is Karen. Karen knows that, too. But you have to keep telling lies that he won't be fooled. Karen doesn't know what to say because Raymond isn't here now. You just have to say the same thing over and over again. Should I reappear as Karen now?

But are you sad now? But Karen wasn't sad. It was hard to mourn my father's death again. My father died too often. To himself, his father was in type. It's been like that for too long. It was so awkward to mourn my father's death.

"You fall in love and all the hard work will be over.”

He was not someone's child, but always someone's lover, enemy, and brat. Karen was actually more familiar with Verdick than her biological father. What does it mean to Karen that her father died? Again, his death was just one of the easiest ways to buy sympathy from Raymond.

But these men don't know what Karen is like in front of them.

So you're treating a normal, immature adolescent girl who's in love, maybe a little crazy. Karen saw Lind speaking soothingly to herself. He was talking as if he were treating Isela.

"Lord Haier died of grief while searching for you. This is not a lie. If you go down to town with us and send a telegram to the Haier estate, the answer will come from there. No, the obituary will be in the local newspaper tomorrow. We could have them bring it."

Karen shook her head.

"I'm not saying you're lying right now. I'm just saying I'm not the person you think I am. My name is Kelly, not Karen Haier. And the only person I care about is Sir Raymond."

Rather, the last time my father was killed by Tom, I think I had a similar feeling of sadness when I lamented my love for my mother less than I thought. It was hard to mourn anew just because my father died this time.

I had an unfamiliar feeling. Usually, he died after suffering from business failure, but this time he died because I disappeared. You were dying because of me. He couldn't even kill himself, but he succeeded when his child went missing. It's just… I see. That was it. an end

Did the mother just marry the father because she had a baby? Or, which part did you like? But I didn't think anything would matter.

Karen has repeatedly denied.

"I don't know who he is. I'm not his daughter."

Karen answered calmly without trembling.

"…you're funny.”

"Mr. Evans, you're barking up the wrong tree."

But no matter how calmly Karen answered, I could tell by Verdick's face. He doesn't believe what Karen says. He is sure that Karen is Karen.

"…you're crazy about men.”

"Will you please refrain from saying rude things?”

Verdick was angry with Karen.

"Why are you lying? Your father's dead. Don't you see this?"

“…….”

"Lady, please look at this."

Lind presented Karen with a picture that she had stoned. Karen got it. It was a portrait of Karen. Of course, it was the same as his face. It was a leaflet looking for itself.

"You look like me. But I'm not this guy."

"It's difficult to keep doing this. I can bring in more people who know you."

"Whatever you bring in, my answer will be the same. I'm not Karen."

Karen replied with a blank face. Berdick lost his reason in the series of negations. Verdick held Karen's shoulder firmly.

"…gentleman, it hurts."

He already looked far from a gentleman.

Berdick held Karen breathlessly.

"Your father lost you! While you're here, fascinated by the obvious Raymond! Every day, I was worried and crying, and I ended up hanging myself! But that's... How."

Karen was dumbfounded. And it was funny. Who gives what advice to whom? What is Verdick saying to Karen now?

"Don't you feel sorry for your father? How could you....”

"Mr. Berdick!"

If it were just you two, Verdick would have beaten Karen. But before I knew it, all the servants, and all the others who were not Verdick's servants, came down and watched them.

"How can a child....”

How could a child do that to his parents? Can he give himself a lecture now?

Who is now with whom.

Karen knows Verdick. know Berdych's evil temper He has hit Karen's neck several times so far. That's not all. He is selfish by nature and only reveals himself.

Dozens of times so far, Lord Haier has been hanged because of Berdick, and countless people have died because of him. Berdick made money through military brokering, and he knew that he was deliberately encouraging disputes here and there.

One of the reasons why the war does not end beyond the White Mountains is because there were not only a few nobles he paid for, and the Baroness Sayertes was handed over to him because he sold sick seeds.

The number of people killed by Berdick could be hundreds, thousands, or tens of thousands, indirectly.

But how can this man do that to himself as a child? Why don't you pay attention to your father's death?

"Say…" Karen Haier.”

"I'm not Karen."

Karen went on to push the setting of Kelly. It didn't matter whether he believed it or not. Berdick will not get any more answers from himself.

Karen stared silently into space.

And this was my best as Karen.

"I don't think I'll ever open my mouth."

Lind got out of Karen and shook her head. Berdick had to circle the hall more than five times to calm his anger. It seemed a long way from Karen to get information about Isella. She refused to admit that she was Karen and kept saying that Raymond was a good person.

"Make him admit it somehow.”

"That's to say."

Lind lowered her voice. He was a man who tried to make things more smooth compared to Berdyk, but he was comparable to the point-blank. Lind was also a little tired of Karen's silence. Lind pretended to cut her throat. But Verdick immediately denied it.

"No, no."

Berdick dropped his words. He wanted to hear anything by coercing a woman who said she was not Karen. But that woman was definitely Karen, and she didn't know how Raymond would come back and bite it as an excuse.

'I just want to kill him.’
