However, Aylin misunderstood her shock to something else and frowned lightly. "Is it less? Do you need...."

"No, no, no, Commander." Susan stopped her before the misconception grew. 

"Then?" Aylin tilted her head not knowing why Susan was this shocked. She was utterly confused and lost.

"Hundred copper coins," Susan exclaimed and clasped her hands together. "I have never seen such a huge amount all at once. I...I was...."

"What do you mean, Susan? Did you not get paid well at the palace?" Aylin stopped her before she could continue.

"I...I...." Susan stuttered again and her reaction planted a seed of suspicion in Aylin's mind.
