I’ll Become a Villainess That Will Go Down in History

Chapter 479

She didn’t say anything back.

If Harris and Marry had met each other with nothing in their possession, things might have been a little different.

But… it was pointless to talk about what might have been.

“Alicia-sama, thank you so much. I can’t thank you enough for protecting the products in this store.”

After a moment of silence, the owner bowed very deeply to me.

…I did not recall doing anything to be thanked. I was just angry at the way those people were behaving.

I quietly told Gilles, “Oh my God, they thanked me,” to which he replied, “Of course they did,” a little taken aback.

But I felt better for having said what I wanted to say, so it was a win-win….

“It’s my pleasure.”

In case you’re wondering, I was also a young lady, so let’s act as if nothing had happened. A short reply would suffice in a situation like this.

The owner slowly looked up. His eyes looked somewhat moist.

I was confident that he would have handled Harris and the others well without me having to do anything. That was what I thought as I looked at him.

“I really am very sorry that my foolishness has caused you so much trouble. I apologize.”

The chairman bowed to the owner.

He must be a really accomplished businessman. …It was a great pity that he could not bring up his son properly as a member of the trading company.

He went through a lot of hardships, but his relationship with his son was not successful…, it was a common pattern.

“Well, I’ll be going.”

There was no point in staying any longer.

People were gathering outside the store, but I had a feeling that if I didn’t leave now, more and more people would be coming.

As I was about to leave the store, Isabella’s voice rang in my ears.

“Please wait.”

I turned my gaze toward her.

“Um…let me thank you.”

“Thank you? I don’t need anything.”

“Still! Alicia-sama saved my life. I thank Alicia-sama for helping me, and I owe her this store. Please!”

How could I refuse her as she bowed deeply?

I smiled and said, “I’ll gladly take you up on your offer”. There was no need to take advantage of someone’s goodwill.

“Now then…”

Gilles and I headed for the door and bowed lightly to the chairman.

He quickly handed me his business card and whispered in my ear.

“If you have any questions, I’m available.”

I quietly accepted the card.

It was plain white with the name “Gordon Auges” written in black letters. It was a simple card, but it seemed very valuable to receive one from him.

“Such as?”

“Well, something about the King’s mother for example.”

I responded, “I see,” and walked out of the store. I walked out of the store.

I stood there in front of the store in a daze, unaware that the people of the city were even paying attention to me.
