Chapter 62: Trouble Solved

Lucien did not panic. Instead, a series of thoughts came to his mind:

“Did the church find out it was me?

“…No, it can’t be. If the church had found this out, they wouldn’t have waited until now. I was involved in the witch’s trouble before… I must be on their list of suspects, but not on the top.”

Lucien paused a bit and answered, “I stood up late to complete the last part of my music work, then I felt very sick in the morning, so I asked for a leave. Now I’m feeling much better. That’s it.”

“Did you see a doctor? What was wrong with you? Can anyone prove it?” Corella questioned closely.

“No one. I was not sick… I was just really tired,” Lucien answered calmly.

“I can prove for him, sir.” Victor took a step forward, “Every time when I finished composing, I felt the same tiredness.”

“You are…?” Corella glanced at him.

“Mr. Victor is Lucien’s music teacher, a musician.” Elena introduced, feeling very surprised that Lucien could somehow compose a piece of music so quickly.
