Arabella told Alwin what he did not hear from Renee's explanation.
He had heard most of it, so he wasn't that surprised.
However, she didn't expect she would be the target of questioning next.
"Your Majesty, how did you know what Renee did?
I was able to listen to your conversation before this.
But I don't recall her telling you about it."
Alwin's eyes glinted, and Arabella had a bad feeling about it.
'Right!
Why didn't I think about what to tell him?'
She was too focused on stopping Renee's attempt that she didn't think about her explanation.
"Eh? She told me when she served my tea.
She whispered it to my ear, so you didn't hear.
It was really low."
Arabella run her mouth before she could think of a better reason.
"I can hear whispers even from the first floor or even further away," Alwin said, and Arabella fidgeted.
'Right. Their senses are too strong. What should I tell him?'
Alwin was a mage so he could enhance his senses as much as he could.
