Inside the booth, a dozen noblewomen were seated, while the table was set with various snacks and tea.
An afternoon tea do-over.
And as Bonnie froze, one of the noblewomen recognized her and sounded puzzled, "Annie? What are you doing here?" "Sorry to interrupt Ms. Stewart and the rest of you, but | cin to see someone." Bonnie said in a calm tone.
Yes, the person who spoke was Aliyah.
At the moment she is drinking tea and chatting with her group of old sisters in a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere.

What does Sebastian like about her that is so presumptuous? And she also said, cin and find someone? "Who are you looking for?" Aliyah asked again, "I don't remember that you know anyone else in here besides me." It's also true that Bonnie doesn't know these noblewomen.
Her eyes swept around the large private room and saw the familiar back.
Striding over, he clasped the man's shoulders and made the man turn around.
A face that was completely unfamiliar appeared in front of Bonnie.
"What's going on, you ...... who are you?" Bonnie froze.
The man bowed his head and spoke in a very respectful tone, "Miss Annie, my nis Ruby." Ruby? Bonnie searched around in her mind for the nand found that it didn't ring a bell.
Ruby went on to explain, "Il just went to work at the Grant Residence, and I've only been there for a couple of weeks." "So what did you used to work at, and why did you suddenly go to THE Grant Residence?" Bonnie becmore and more puzzled.
By Ruby's projection of this time, doesn't it happen to be shortly after she last accidentally heard Aliyah and Madeleine talking in the stairwell.
The timing is inexplicable, and the backs are similar, so Bonnie can't help but suspect.
"lI haven't worked in a while, and before that | was working for a boat dealer." Ruby continued.
Bonnie's clear almond eyes narrowed slightly into a line, "Which ship merchant, can you be more specific?" "That's enough!" Aliyah's face was a little embarrassed and she spoke out to stop it, "Annie, you cout with me!" These noblewomen in the room had gone to that birthday party earlier and naturally knew about Sebastian's public proposal to Annie.

Now this daughter-in-law suddenly barges into her tea party and aggressively interrogates the maids she brought with her.
Aliyah really doesn't know where to put her face! She walked out of the booth with an iron face and a puff of anger.
Bonnie also had to give up and followed the walk out.
When she reached the small balcony at the end of the corridor and faced the breeze, Aliyah questioned, "What do you want, to embarrass yourself in front of those noblewomen? Or do you want them to think that you have a higher status thanin the Grant family?" "I didn't mean that," Bonnie's tone was calm, "l was just suspicious of that Ruby's identity." Said Bonnie, raising her eyes frankly and gazing at Aliyah, "Ms. Stewart, don't you think that Ruby looks a lot like Madeleine?" Without hesitation, Aliyah denied it, "I don't think so!" How can Ruby be Madeleine? The real Madeleine, who had died in a bus accident on the way to Kyoto! So Aliyah is pretty sure that Ruby can never be Madeleine.
"Don't worry about it, Madeleine won't even show up again." Aliyah said.
Bonnie wrinkled her brow gently, "Why?"
