Are you worthy of saving the world?

She thought she was special to Irene.

However, just now, Irene told her clearly: Ulysses is a special existence.

The feeling of being betrayed and abandoned made her lose all the anger she had accumulated until now, which gradually turned into despair.

……

……

……

"Anna..."

Irene looked at the door that was slammed shut and bit her lip.

She felt a little regretful, wondering if her remarks were a bit too radical.

Annabell hated Ulysses. She knew it clearly. She should have used a more gentle tone and taken a more gradual approach.

The reason why I didn't do this was because of my competitive spirit as a woman.

Ulysses - Irene's master cares about Anna a little, and she might be very jealous.

“Haha… this is bad.”

Irene sighed helplessly: "If Anna escapes, the master will definitely punish me severely when he finds out...

Woo, I really don't know how he will bully me this time."

"It's a pity that you still have the energy to wait for punishment here. Is it okay if you don't catch up with him?"

The sound behind her made Erin jump and scream.

"Master...Uliphis-san! If you are here, please tell me!"

Irene pressed the hollow chest of her maid outfit and took deep breaths.

Glancing at the black-haired girl who had appeared behind her like a ghost, Irene frowned and asked, "How much of our conversation did you hear?"

"Don't make it sound like I was eavesdropping. I just happened to be passing by and was looking for some midnight snack."

Yuli shook his right hand in front of Irene, holding a baked sweet potato he had taken from the kitchen.

"I asked you to guide the newcomers, why did you chase them away?"

Yuli took a bite of the sweet potato and chuckled nonchalantly.

"I didn't expect that Teacher Irene's ability was limited to this level. I am so disappointed."

"Stop being so verbose."

The corners of Irene's mouth twitched in dissatisfaction.

Yuli only called her "teacher" when he was being sarcastic or mocking.

"I'm sorry, Master...I need to take a day off tonight."

As Irene spoke, she took down the raincoat hanging on the wall and put it on over her maid outfit.

Although the rain was not heavy, thunder could be faintly heard.

As expected, Irene was still worried about Annabell. Her mental state was a little abnormal.

"I'll go with you."

Yuli stuffed the sweet potato into his mouth and wiped his hands with a towel.

Hearing this, Irene looked at him with a complicated expression.

"What's wrong?" Yuli asked back.

Irene turned her face away, and said with some resentment: "If it was me who ran away, you would definitely not go out in the rain to look for me."

"No, let's go."

Yuli patted her on the back, and Irene covered her numb butt with a cry of "Ah?"

What a perfunctory punishment... Her cheeks flushed as she thought to herself.

……

……

……

Icy rain poured down from the night sky, completely soaking the streets.

Annabell folded her arms and walked aimlessly on the streets of Chengdu.

Although she escaped from Yuli's house in a fit of rage, her luggage was actually still there.

Because she was not married yet, Annabell had been living in the teachers' dormitory of the seminary.

According to the original plan, she was going to stay at Yuli's house for a week, and she had even made arrangements with the people in the dormitory in advance. But now...

Annabell glanced down at her appearance.

Not only was she wearing a maid outfit that exposed her shoulders and thighs, but she was also soaked from head to toe by the rain.

Obviously, there is no way to go back to the dormitory tonight.

Anyway, let's find a place to shelter from the rain first. Thinking of this, she came under a roof.

"Ulyphis... did you take Irene away from me to humiliate me?"

Annabell gritted her teeth and clenched her fists: "If that's what you think, then you succeeded... I lost to you again."

"Although he didn't say it explicitly, he actually wants to establish a friendly relationship with you. I'm also a woman... so I understand."

Inexplicably, Irene's words rang in my ears.

"Ulphis-san thinks very highly of you. I'm a little envious... I'm just kidding, hehe."

"Tsk...!"

Annabell shook her head and patted her face to clear her mind of distracting thoughts.

at this time--

"Miss Annabell?"

Annabell shuddered.

Looking back, I saw a well-dressed man holding an umbrella not far away.

"It's really Miss Annabell! I'm so lucky to meet you in a place like this."

The man walked over here with surprise and joy.

"Well, good evening... Baron Siegel."

It was not until he walked in front of her that Annabelle could no longer avoid him and she reluctantly called out his name.

She knew the man in front of her, having met him several times at social parties.

Baron Siegel also has the worst reputation among the nobles of the Vatican.

His driving skills are not prominent, but he is very rich because he is said to be secretly engaged in a business of addictive illegal drugs.

He was a well-known playboy in the Upper Town. He was in his forties and had no children of his own, but he had many mistresses, reportedly four or five.

Annabell had always had a bad impression of him, not only because of his private affairs, but also because he always stared at her and Irene with lustful eyes.

Siegel smelled strongly of alcohol and perfume, and he must have just come out of one of his mistresses' houses.

Annabell analyzed calmly: He was planning to meet his mistress at night but it started raining and he was worried that her husband would come home early so he was kicked out.

Meeting this guy in a place like this is such a terrible night...

Thinking of this, Annabelle's hatred for Yuli deepened.

"Miss Annabell, why are you here at this time?"

Siegel looked at Annabelle, who was soaked to the skin. "And...what's with the way you're dressed?"

Annabelle was still wearing the maid outfit she had escaped from Yuri's house in, which was a really strange outfit.

"Nothing, I'm waiting for someone, please leave me alone."

Annabelle crossed her arms stiffly and turned her body away, expressing a strong "don't bother me" expression.

Siegel didn't turn around and leave, but just stared at Annabell.

Then, he seemed to understand something and showed an expression of sudden enlightenment.

Siegel spoke with a meaningful smile.

"Miss Annabell, if you don't mind, why don't you come to my house tonight to take shelter from the rain?"

"Aha?"

Annabell had a stunned expression and wondered what this man was thinking.

"No need, I told you I'm waiting for someone." She said coldly.

"Please don't say that, Miss Annabell."

Siegel walked towards her with a smile, and the distance between them exceeded the social distance between gentlemen and ladies.

"Are you short of money recently? Do you need my help?"

In front of Annabell's extremely confused eyes, Siegel smiled flatteringly and said, "No matter how difficult it is, there is no need to work part-time at a call girl club, right?

You are also a teacher at St. Cromwell. Luckily, I was the one you met tonight. If you were recognized by others, you would lose your job."

"..."

Annabell's expression froze.

Now she finally understood:

Siegel probably thought that based on the way he was dressed and the way he was standing on the street, he was someone who was out at night to earn some extra money.

"Are you kidding..."

Annabelle was immediately annoyed, but she forced herself to remain calm.

“I don’t know why you have such a misunderstanding, but you are completely wrong.
