‘If I want to locate the target of my current mission, I must first delve into the drug incident from back then, which is inseparable from the person that I’m searching for.’
‘With Ehren Sulzbach’s description, I now know how terrible the drug is. If it’s still being distributed in the market, it’ll leave a great impact on the people. And perhaps the tragedy of the Sulzbachs will once again make its way into more people and families.’
Although Hestia was a businesswoman, it was still impossible for her to do such a thing.
Jessie knew that she could not change Hestia’s mind, so the two returned home without saying a word. Hestia went into her room and locked herself up as soon as they arrived home, leaving Jessie facing the door of her room anxiously.
Hestia called Sylvie as soon as she entered the room. "Look into a drug-related case that happened about thirty years ago."
Sylvie did not expect that Hestia would suddenly want her to investigate new things. During her time in Genecity, Hestia investigation requests had been very miscellaneous and random, seemingly unrelated to each other, and it was quite troublesome to look into.
‘But who made her the lady of the Deschamps?’
Sylvie sighed, lifted the coffee mug in her hand, and comforted herself inwardly.
‘At least Ms. Deschamps hasn’t made a mess in Halwanest that I’ll be asked to deal with. All I've had to do so far is just sit in the office and investigate the things that she wants to know...’
"Plus, I’m getting married in about a month."
"Puff——" Sylvie choked on the coffee that was going down her throat and squirted it all out. "What did you just say?"
"I’m about a month away from getting married." Hestia had guessed that Sylvie would be shocked by the news, so she repeated the sentence in a calm tone and then said, "Father should know about this, but we plan to hide it from Mother, so don’t accidentally spill the secret in front of her."
