She Was Sent by God

zing Memoirs* * *

When Agnes got out of bed, it was long after the sun had already risen.

“Ney!”

Usually, waking up late is not a problem, but right now her appointment with Sebastian was early in the morning.

“Madam, are you up?”

Ney came to the side of the bed.

“What time is it now? Didn’t I tell you that I have to go to the palace this morning?”

“The Lord told me not to wake you up.”

“What? Why?”

“Because you’re going to the palace yourself.”

“Hang on.
Does that mean the Duke went to the palace?”

Ney nodded.

“Oh no! Hurry up and bring my clothes.
I should go to the palace right away.”

Agnes hurriedly got out of bed and wore slippers.

“Oh, no.
Madam.”

“What do you mean no?”

“The owner asked me to tell you, ‘Don’t think about coming to the palace and rest well.’”

“Take a rest? My body is fine!”

Agnes poked out her chest and said boldly.

“You have a black bruise on my neck.
Madam.”

Ney brought a mirror, sighing deeply.

“Hmm.”

When I saw it yesterday, it was just a red handprint, but when I woke up from sleep, I looked like someone who had strangled her throat.

“Please rest today.
Should I bring you your meal?”

“No.
Let’s get dressed first.”

“A dress covering your neck?”

“Not that, but summer dress.
I have to endure the heat.
I’d rather wear a scarf.”

I just changed my clothes, and the butler informed me that a guest came with an awkward face.

“Who’s here?”

“It’s Baron Leslin.”

“I don’t remember him requesting a visit”.

“Yes, that’s right.
Nevertheless, Baron Leslin insisted that he should meet the duchess immediately.….”

“Why?”

“I don’t know.”

“Hmm.”

Agnes agonized for a moment.

The tiredness did not completely go away, so I was feeling lazy, but I couldn’t ignore him at all.

“Take me to the drawing room.”

“Yes madam.”

After a while, Baron Leslin jumped up from his seat when she arrived at the drawing room.

“Duchess!”

“Baron Leslin.
What’s going on? Coming here without a request.”

“This is a clear breach of contract.”

He suddenly said what he had to say without saying hello.

It was a great disrespect, but Agnes just let it pass.

“What do you mean, breach of contract?”

“All I handed over is the mining rights of the sapphire mine.
Isn’t it right that I should have the relics from there?”

The story that relics from the Ethron mine makes mana stone is already openly spread.

Hearing the story, the baron seems to have rushed in coming here.

“What does that mean? Did I read the contract incorrectly?”

“Of course!”

He took the contract out of his arms with a confident attitude.

“Look carefully.”

Agnes pointed out one clause with a relaxed attitude.

“The contract definitely did not specify minerals.”

“That!”

Later, the baron understood the meaning of the sentence and crumpled the contract on the table.

“This is invalid! In the first place, there is no word that includes relics, right?”

The baron stood up, losing his cool.

“Don’t be stubborn.
Don’t you know what ‘everything’ means?”

Agnes continued to talk coldly.

“Tell me the truth.
If the relics hadn’t come out of the mine, you wouldn’t come to me like this to protest the fairness of the contract.
Don’t you think so?”

Baron Leslin couldn’t bring up a rebuttal, just staring at Agnes with a huff.

“This was a legitimate contract no matter who looked at it.
You have to admit what you have to admit.”

“I can’t do that!”

He punched the table.
When the sound of punching came out, the servant standing on the wall flinched.

“You can’t do it?”

But Agnes was not scared.

“I’m sorry to hear that you can’t.”

She called the servant in the back coldly.

“The baron is leaving now, take him outside the mansion.”

“Yes madam.”

The servant quickly approached the baron and grabbed him by the arm.

“Argh! I can’t go like this?”

He jumped like a crazy beast.

Even though the three servants clung together, they could not easily pull him out.

“Let me go!”

“Ugh!”

In a blink of an eye.

While one of the servants holding the baron looked away, Baron Leslin shook off their hands and rushed straight to Agnes.

He snatched the scarf around Agnes’ neck.
