SPMB - Chapter 146

My Body Has Been Possessed By Someone

"In a few days, Marchioness Mercy will hold a tea party at the villa."

The Empress spoke in a quiet voice.

"The Duchess knows because you have been there many times, but to get to that villa, you have to pass by Eliton Forest."

Marchioness Mercy held a tea party at her villa every year. It was a party exclusively for noble women.

"The Duchess must take Kanna to the party. And rides in the same carriage as Kanna."

The Empress pushed the two pawns on the chessboard forward.

"A group of bandits will attack from the forest. At first, I told them to kidnap an elderly middle-aged woman. Then the guards will flock to protect the Duchess, right?"

Several knights stood in front of one pawn.

"When the escorts pay relatively Iess attention to Kanna."

The Empress pointed out the remaining pawn.

"At that time, another group of bandits will appear from behind. I told them to kidnap the Young Lady."

The Empress smiled broadly.

"My carriage will appear around the time Kanna is kidnapped. I will order the guards of Addis to guard the duchess, and my knights to track down Kanna."

However, the Empress's knights will only pretend to pursue them and return empty-handed.

"How about it? Isn't it so easy?"

"..."

"In order for this matter to be handled without raising any suspicion, the Duchess will have to make some sacrifices."

When Chloe hesitated, the Empress frowned.

Is she really hesitating now? 

The Empress quickly threw in her bait.

"As I said, once this is over. I will definitely bring Lady Isabelle in as a maintenance worker at Crescent."

"You promised, right?"

"Okay. I swear on my name and the honor of my family. Didn't we write a document together?"

As Chloe innocently nodded, the Empress mocked her inwardly. It's foolish. Does she believe that document?

'Even if I change my words in the future, you will not be able to disclose that document. Unless you plan to let the whole world know that you are up to something dirty.'

The Empress was accustomed to such slander and betrayal. But it wasn't Chloe. She was an ordinary noblewoman whose only fights were the nerves she experienced in social circles.

That's why she completely trusted the document with the seal on it.

 'What a stupid thing.'

***

A few days passed since then, and the Marchioness's tea party arrived tomorrow.

'I can't leave Kanna alone.'

As time passed. Chloe's resolve became stronger day by day. Kanna is ruining the Addis family. Didn't the relationship between her children become cold because of her?

That wasn't all.

Not long ago, it was a huge shock to Chloe when Alessandro escorted Kanna to the party.

Did Alessandro ever escort her?

Not once, not even once!

'That's not right.'

Everything is for the sake of peace in Addis. She had to move Kanna far away to protect Addis.

'But even though Kanna becomes Prince Crescent's concubine, her connection with Addis does not end.'

When she thought about it that way, the Empress's plan seemed very lacking.

'Okay, that's not enough.'

In any case, Kanna ultimately becomes a member of the royal family. It is very good that Kanna's reputation is tarnished and she is expelled from social circles. It was nice to leave Addis and become someone's concubine. 

Just thinking about it made Chloe feel refreshed.

However, she was displeased that Kanna's opponent was Crescent. Even if she is a concubine, isn't she a member of the royal family?

Above all, Isabelle is scheduled to be an overhaul of Crescent.

'No matter how common it is for the royal family, there will still be people who talk behind their backs about the sisters getting married to the same man.'

Moreover, it seemed like Kanna would be loved more than Isabelle. Her appearance and her strange aura had a way of captivating people.

'Isabelle could become an Empress in disguise,'

It is unacceptable for Kanna to marry into the royal family or to remain in Addis.

So what should she do?

While Chloe was taking a walk in the garden while worrying, she ran into Kalen.

"Oh my, Kalen."

Kalen glanced at her and then passed her by. Chloe was startled by the coldness and shouted.

"Kalen, are you ignoring me?"

Kalen stands tall. He turned around and gave a disdainful look.

"Yes."

What?

"What's wrong? Why all of a sudden?

"No matter how much I think about it. I don't understand."

"What on earth?"

"This is the education I received from my mother when I was young."

"What?"

"Didn't you brainwash us by gossiping about my sister and telling us not to get close to her? Looking back, Mother did the wrong thing back then."

The current Kalen was like a blade. Chloe's lips trembled at the harsh tone.

"My mother is not a good mother. She's more on the bad side."

Then he turned around and passed by. Her son's verbal abuse brought tears to her eyes. Chloe gritted her teeth and shed tears. And she suddenly made a decision.

'I have to kill her."

Kanna, Kanna, Kanna.

Just like her mother, she are trying to take away her precious things and ruin Addis.

'I can't kill her gracefully. Let her affairs with the Empress continue as is, but then she must be killed before she marries Prince Crescent'

Isn't there a maid who's good to use at the right time?

A few days ago, there was a maid who tried to steal her jewelry. Normally, she would have been whipped right away and then taken to trial.

'Maybe I can use it in a conspiracy with the Empress.'

It was the maid who had been left alone with such thoughts. Chloe ordered her servant.

"Bring the maid Ariel to my room.'

Chloe threatened Ariel.

"If I report that, you will rot in prison for years. After you get out of prison, no family will hire you."

Ariel, whose complexion became pale, knelt down.

"Please forgive me, Ma'am!"

"I could whip you so you never walk again and then kick you out. But why should I forgive?"

"I will do whatever you ask me to do. Please forgive me!"

When the maid came to the point where she was crying and begging for help, Chloe made a generous offer.

"If you listen to me carefully, I might forgive you."

"yes?"

"As a reward. I will give you the jewel you tried to steal."

"Um, are you serious?"

"Yes."

Chloe smiled secretly.

"What am I going to do..."

***

"She said that?"

Kanna suppressed laughter.

How can Chloe act in a way that doesn't deviate from her expectations?

After Chloe discovered that the Empress was plotting things, Kanna used Ariel.

She had it stolen on purpose and placed it next to Chloe. Just like she did when she secretly planned things, Chloe thought she would need a maid to use when doing dirty work.

'I didn't know she would start work this quickly.'

Besides, Chloe trying to kill her. This is more than Kannq expected.

"First of all, do everything Chloe tells you to do. Don't forget to leave evidence."

"All right."

Ariel listened calmly. Of course, it wasn't about loyalty. Looking at Kalen Addis' recent attitude, she decided that her future would be brighter if she joined Kanna's side rather than Chloe's, and,

"Here, the promised reward."

Kanna held out a box full of gold.

"Okay, thank you. I will be loyal to you."

"Do you remember what to do when I go to the tea party tomorrow?" 

"Yes, I know."

"You have to do it right without making any mistakes. If you succeed, I will reward you generously."

"I'll keep that in mind!"

After sending Ariel out, Kanna became lost in thought.

Thanks to the information Argon gave as an apology, Kanna learned of their plan in advance.

It was a very dirty plot.

'It's already tomorrow.'

Marquis Mercy's Tea Party.

A very terrible accident will happen on the way.

Actually, it's okay if you don't participate, but Kanna was planning on going obediently.

'Of course, it won't go the way they want.'

Everything has already been done. But they won't even dream about it.

'You shouldn't have left me alone.'

If that were the case, she would have quietly disappeared, but they gave Kanna an opportunity to take revenge on them.

'If it turns out like this. I'll never be able to quietly disappear.'

Chloe, and the Empress. 

After giving them destruction, Kanna will disappear.

***

The day has finally arrived.

'I'm glad Kanna went with me.'

Chloe felt relieved.

She wondered what would happen if Kanna failed to attend or insisted on going in a different carriage, but she obediently got into the same carriage.

Just before the carriage departs.

"Wait!"

The door burst open and Isabelle came running in. She then sat down next to Kanna.

"Isabelle? Why are you..."

Isabelle is on probation. But why did she ride in a carriage? She's even dressed up for a party?

"I convinced Kalen."

At that time, Kanna spoke softly.

"It's pitiful. You're at an age where you should be a social figure, but you're on probation."

Isabelle's face turned red at those words. She said, and in a voice as loud as a mosquito, she muttered. 

"Thank you, thank you."

On the other hand, Chloe's complexion instantly turned pale.

'No!'

It was not planned for Isabelle to go with her. Moreover, didn't the Empress clearly order the kidnapping of a 'Young Lady'?

'What if they confuse Isabelle and Kanna?'

No. that is absolutely not possible!

"B-but... Wouldn't it be better to be a little more disciplined? It seems like Kalen is still very upset."

"Oh my God. Is mom really only looking out for Kalen? You don't even care about my feelings?"

Isabelle, who had a lot to accumulate, shot back coldly.

"Well. Mom has always been like that. My brothers always came first and I took a backseat. Mother only knows her son."
