‘Everyone’s here now. Ren has slept enough, so let’s dig in.” Sophia seated Renee at the table andsaid cheerfully.
‘Good morning, Grandpa Baldwin, Uncle Jack, and Justin.” Renee greeted them politely and smiledbroadly at them.
“Did you sleep well last night?” Austin looked at Renee fondly. The more he looked at her, the more heliked her.
“I slept very well last night. Thank you for your concern.” Renee nodded slowly. She was veryexperienced in all this, since this was how she survived in the Hunt family for four years. She hademerged unharmed thanks to all the masks she wore.
■ Really?” Justin suppressed his laughter and asked, “Weren’t you walking around in the courtyard inthe middle of the night? You even energetically fixed a hole in the wall! I thought you couldn’t sleepbecause you weren’t used to the environment.”
Renee glared at Justin, fighting the urge to reach over and choke him.1 Damn that troublemaker! Heshould know who I was trying to help and why I was forced to do this! What an ungrateful man…’
A hole?” Austin’s gaze instantly turned cold, like the gaze of a soldier on the battlefield. It was terrifying.
Renee hurriedly explained, “I couldn’t fall asleep because it’s a new place, and I saw that the moonwas very beautiful last night, so I went out for a stroll. At that point, I happened to see a hole in the wall,so I fixed it.”
Austin nodded and did not ask further. “Today is your first day here, so you can sleep in, but you can’tdo it anymore. Everyone in the Baldwin family abides by military rules, and we keep to a strict schedule
every day. This is to strengthen our minds!”
‘Huh?” Renee was dumbfounded.novelbin
‘Ren, you are a child from a military family, so you should be able to follow these rules. Mauriceprobably would be happy that I could make you stronger!”
“Um…” Renee gulped and wanted to say that it was totally unnecessary. Her grandfather had alreadytaught her war theories and fighting skills when he was still alive. He also taught her how to assembleguns, how to make and defuse a bomb, and even how to train soldiers. However, he pampered her inall other aspects, and usually let her do whatever she liked.
‘Calm down, Grandpa, these rules are for our family. The relationship between Ren and me isn’tconfirmed yet, so don’t scare her away!” Justin finally decided to help Renee out.
‘Don’t listen to this old fogey. You can stay up late if you want to, or sleep in if you want to. You justhave to live freely and happily as my wife. There is no need to be so disciplined!” Justin saiddismissively.
His words received the enthusiastic support of Sophia. “Yes, he’s right! Ren and Justin can livehowever they like as long as they are happy; We won’t interfere.”
Austin’s face turned serious, but before he could say anything, a maid ran into the room. She lookedaround wildly and shouted, “Francine’s gone!”
‘She disappeared?” Austin slammed the cutlery on the table and demanded, “What happened?”
’When I went to start my shift this morning, there was nobody in the room. The lock wasn’t damaged –it’s like she disappeared into thin air!”
’What nonsense. Do you not want your tongue anymore?” Austin scoffed.
Jack asked, “Unless she was let go, how could a person disappear out of thin air?”
The maid suddenly realised something and shouted, “The new maid… It must be that new maid!”
