Dear Broom Knight.

Chapter 1069 Euphemia's Happiness

However, Connie must have made some preparations before bringing this up two days before the end of the month.

If Alexandra is dissatisfied and cancels her employment... then Alexandra won't lose too much.

After all, the female workers on Laurel Street are paid their wages in advance.

If the maid is dismissed without any reasonable grounds, her salary for that month will definitely not be refunded, and even the deposit at the church will be used as compensation for the maid.

Of course, the first three months of employment are excluded.

A period of adjustment is necessary. Sometimes, neither party is wrong, but they just can't get along, and there's nothing that can be done about it... You should be able to see something after three months.

Just like they said before, Connie is a reliable person. She has been working in their family for so many years and has always been steady and reliable.

However, Connie was already affected less than six months after the new captain arrived.

Therefore, Alexandra will not be unhappy with Connie because of this.

They would leave sooner or later, but Connie had to stay here.

Queen Louise could at best guarantee their lives, but there was no guarantee for their future.

When she relinquished royal military power, this day was destined to come.

Ordinary people don't think that much; they can only see themselves and only need to see their own interests.

The future of her three sons was enough to overwhelm Connie's rationality.

It's already quite remarkable that she hesitated for so long, only testing the waters with her words.

Alexis guessed that when she went to the employment supervisor, she would get the same answer: "Both parties agree to terminate the employment relationship"... Connie would definitely not want that deposit.

This is the only thing an ordinary person caught up in a dispute can do to protect their self-respect.

How could she possibly blame that terrified mother?
While it's true that working for her family was inherently dangerous, which explains the high salary, Connie should have been prepared for the hardship... but that mother probably only thought about paying the price herself.

Even if she dies as a result of being implicated, she can still get generous compensation for her children. What's wrong with that?
How could Connie have imagined that the price would come from within the church, from behind her sons?
Alexandra wouldn't be so shameless as to blame someone who has no power to resist for their compromise.

She will not return the deposit.

Connie has gotten to know her quite well over this period of time, and she can see from this that Connie doesn't care.

This is enough.

For Connie, true safety comes from cutting ties with her.

Alexandra neatly packed her things, leaving nothing behind... If she really had any bad intentions, leaving anything behind would be the most disadvantageous thing for the Emilia royal family.

Internal struggles may not be as intense or public as external wars, but they can still silently destroy a good person.

Kindness is the greatest weakness at this time.

After all, this time they were no longer facing enemies.

Old friends are all around me.

Unfortunately, it was these old friends who wanted them dead.

Why would they dare to plot against Darkmoon on Emilia's royal territory? It's all because of Queen Louise's family's benevolent nature!
If you don't get caught doing anything wrong, you won't be expelled... This is possible externally, and even more so internally.

Alexis sneered and stuffed the massive washing equipment directly into the light blue storage ring... The movement was a bit too forceful, and a slight clinking sound came from her wrist.

She rolled up her sleeves, revealing a rainbow-colored, wide, ring-shaped gemstone bracelet on her wrist.

Alexandra carefully checked the partitions to make sure there were no errors, then waved her hand, letting her sleeve fall back down.

She suddenly laughed again... The resolute Antirochus is quite interesting. I wonder what his expression will be when he arrives in Maple Territory and discovers that even the worst of Lori's direct subordinates has a string of mithril bracelets.

That kid, Lori, is extremely skilled at creating spatial items.

However, he had no interest in dealing with outsiders... so in the end, he simply kept the best for himself, rewarded his subordinates with the mediocre ones, and sold the ones he didn't like.

The outside world already perceives him as a master of creating artifacts, but that's definitely not even half of Lowry's true strength.

Based on Arigus's understanding of Lori, he should appreciate children like Antirochus and Euphemia.

"Yohoho! I'm back!" Euphemia walked happily into the house. "Brother~ I have some good news for you... Eh?"

Has your house been broken into?

Then she immediately looked up at the vines above the foyer and said righteously, "Theodoric! You have failed in your duty!" Theodoric moved slightly, but still didn't hit her... He was controlling his vines to help Antirochus collect his things!
Euphemia will have to come begging to him sooner or later.

The little girl had far more random and scattered things than Antiochus.

To find them all without leaving a single one, we cannot do without Theodoric.

The accounts can be settled later.

Seeing Theodoric remain motionless, Euphemia's expression changed, and she immediately rushed upstairs: "Antilochus! What happened?"

"Hurry up and pack your things. We're leaving Emilia tomorrow morning," Antirochus whispered as he came out to greet us.

"Sneak away?" Euphemia immediately tensed up and asked instinctively.

Antirochus was taken aback: "What nonsense are you talking about? We are just Emilia's guests, and we can leave whenever we want."

Ms. Alexandra will take us to check out tomorrow morning.

Although Queen Louise has essentially given this place to you, but…

“There’s definitely no need to keep it. We won’t be coming back.” Euphemia nodded decisively. “I understand. I’ll go pack my things.”

“Your good news can wait until later,” Antirochus smiled slightly. “Mikhail should be waiting for us.”

Euphemia was about to return her brother's smile when her expression immediately changed: "Ah! Theo! Dear Mr. Theodoric, please help poor Euphemia!"
We are about to embark on a long, boring, and lonely journey together. Without me, how much fun you would miss out on!
Mia guarantees she'll find you the coolest, most flavorful spring water!

Although magical creatures can break free from their dependence on sunlight and rain, they will still have a preference for them.

Theodoric had a penchant for collecting various spring waters... He disliked rainwater unless it was sunny rain.

Euphemia was going all out; she figured she could just run a few extra kilometers along the way.

She didn't want to be glared at by her brother or laughed at by Penelope for forgetting something!
Only Theodoric could tidy up everything in this house quickly, leaving no stone unturned!

Of course, if it were before she started talking nonsense, Theodoric would probably have agreed if he had just said a few nice words.

But who told her to be so happy today?
Theodoric happily took two more Joes before agreeing... He had actually been prepared for a while, just waiting for Euphemia to come back so he could put away her personal belongings first!
“Brother!” Euphemia suddenly remembered that her storage space was already full of the two of their daily necessities. Just as she was about to rush out, she saw a string of moonstone bracelets hanging on the doorknob.

She picked it up in surprise, and as soon as she put her mental energy into it, she couldn't help but shout, "Brother! You've sold yourself?"

"What's wrong with Euphemia?" Mikhail looked up at the dejected girl behind Antirochus, somewhat puzzled. "Is there something important that you can't accomplish?"
Mom just didn't want to get entangled with them anymore, but she didn't have to leave right away..."

“No, don’t worry.” Antirochus interrupted him with a smile. “He just got carried away and offended Theodoric first, paying a heavy price, and then he offended me, getting a beating again after many years.”

This was nothing new to Mikhail... after all, he had a sister named Penelope, so he immediately felt relieved: "That's good, Theodoric will be fine too, right?"

A golden vine slowly emerged from Antirochus's left sleeve, swayed slightly, and then retracted.

"He's fine, he just hasn't used this posture in a long time and needs some time to get used to it," Antirochus said with a smile.

“You seem quite happy?” Mikhail found it somewhat incomprehensible.

Based on his understanding of Antioch, although his friend wouldn't be saddened by leaving the city where he had stayed for nearly twelve years, he would certainly feel a little reluctant.

Although Antirochus always felt that he was cold-hearted and heartless, Mikhail only thought that he was deceiving himself.

His friend had just encountered too many disgusting people and disgusting things, so he was very wary.

But deep down, he is a sensitive and affectionate person, a kind person with a heart full of sunshine.

It is a perfect match for his Lantana... He has a strong sense of territory, is extremely ferocious against intruders, and is vicious and ruthless in his counterattacks, but in front of people he trusts, he is as soft as a loaf of bread.

Mikhail felt that his mother sometimes looked at Antirochus with the expression, 'So this is the type the sun god likes!'

Antirochus didn't understand the strange curiosity in his friend's surprised look, and just said slowly, "I reckon Garrett might be in big trouble."

"Huh?" Euphemia suddenly looked up. "How did you know? This information only arrived at the church today!"

"Is there even a need to guess?" Antirochus sighed at her. "You were so arrogant when you came back today!"
They dare to say anything, and even provoke others.

"If I weren't absolutely certain I'd let you go, how could you speak so recklessly?"

Euphemia pouted.

Why can't she win just one game?

Antirochus's mind works way too fast!
