Chapter 86

"Damn it all!"

Dolores had been opening the bills flooding in, and irritation surged through her so fiercely that she hurled the ashtray. It was a replacement she had bought only the day before yesterday for the one that had broken, and now it had broken too.

The maid sighed where she wouldn't be noticed and quickly swept the floor.

Dolores paid her no mind and paced restlessly around the room.

There's no money, no money!

She had bought fine clothes and jewels with the commissions from selling the cigarettes Arnaud supplied. She had agreed to pay for them in installments over five months.

But with Arnaud arrested and the goods cut off, there was nowhere for money to come from. Of course there was the money Count McCallen sent her, but if she spent that on the payments, she would have to dismiss the maid and starve.…

I tried hard to escape a rock‑bottom life.   But the price for that was taking the blame for the young lady I served?   They told me to pay an amount of money I had never even held in my entire life. What reason was there to keep living?   On the day I decided to die, I wasted what little I had of my entire fortune.   I thought life was truly miserable. At least until the police suddenly appeared before me.   “Are you Miss Rosalyn Tessis? Please come with us at once. There was a fire at your residence, and everyone except the young lady has died.”   “What?”   Wait. Hold on.   If I become Rosalyn Tessis, and the dead Rosalyn becomes Emma Hampton…   Then I do not have to pay compensation, right?   “Yes, I am Rosalyn Tessis!”   Without even being reborn, I gained the life of a noble. God really was alive after all.   Of course, that does not mean there are no complications.   “I am Ash McCallen. I finally get to meet you.”   The detective in charge of this case keeps suspecting me.   Judging by his eyes, he already seems to have marked me as the culprit.   So, am I scared?   Not a chance.   My life was ruined anyway. I might as well see this through to the end!
