*𝒞ℴ𝓃𝓉𝒾𝓃𝓊𝒾𝓃𝑔⚋⚋⚋⚋⚋⚋⚋⚋⚋⚋⚋

Ziana wanted to take a look at the child’s back if she could.

Do you happen to know?

The angel’s wings could really be hidden!

‘You look just like how you were described in the novel.’

Though, she wouldn’t know what I’m talking about, so stop being silly.

Let’s first start by asking for her name.

‘Hoo-ha, Hoo-ha.’

Ziana took a deep breath, soothing her trembling chest.

Then carefully asked the girl.

❝Hey, do you happen to know a child named “Liliana Aberyt” in this orphanage?”

Her eyes opened wide after hearing the question.

“Li-Liliana? I’m Liliana…”

At the girl’s crawling answer,Ziana felt thrilled.

I knew it, there’s no way such a pretty child isn’t the main character of this world! I thought my son was the cutest in the world so far, but he’s as cute as my daughter-in-law!

❝I see, nice to meet you. Is Baron Londini or the Baroness inside?”

I heard that the position of the orphan director is currently held by Baron Londini’s wife. So at least the Baroness should be in.

Ziana, who spoke without thinking about it, was a little surprised. It was because as soon as the words ‘Baroness Londini’ came out, Liliana’s face turned pale.

❝Th, the orphanage director?”

… Orphanage director? Ziana’s eyes narrowed in the sense of discomfort that passed through her spine.

Ziana thought, she is not an orphan in an orphanage, so why is she calling her the orphanage director?

Shouldn’t she call them Uncle or Aunt?

❝Well, yes… the orphanage director.”

Ziana nodded.

Then Liliana, who had noticed, carefully asked the question.

❝Well, if the lady is an official from another orphanage….”

❝Yes?”

❝Well, can you please not take me?”

Liliana suddenly clenched her two cute fists. The light-colored eyes looking at Ziana shook desperately.

❝I will definitely disappoint the lady. I can’t work, I’m incompetent, and I can’t use my hands.”

Ziana looked down at Liliana with a confused face.

Liliana, what the hell are you talking about?

However, Liliana was desperately expressing her uselessness.

❝Well, I also eat a lot. If you take me, it will cost a lot of food. That, and…”

Ziana gazed at Liliana, who had no hesitation in demeaning herself.

Liliana’s face was full of fear. As if she was afraid of someone taking her in. After a while,Ziana suddenly asked a question.

❝What are you so scared of?”

❝… T-The orphanage director.”

Liliana said after a while and then touched her lips.

❝The other orphanages, he said…they are hell.”

❝What?”

❝Children are beaten every day, and those who can’t work often get hit on the face”

Liliana wiggled her fingers. Avoiding Ziana’s gaze, Liliana concluded with a creeping voice.

❝Children who do not listen are kept in a solitary room for a week.”

“…”

Because it’s our orphanage, they’ll take in a sluggish child like me,and if I go somewhere else, I’ll be beaten up…”
