章節 79: Ch 80: Exchange - part 3

The kids had been hastily gathered, and the urgency was palpable. But because Cardinal was calling for them, none dared to be late.

Even among this hoard of kids, it was easy to tell the kid Lady Layla had asked the Cardinal to bring with her.

After all, pink hair was a rare trait, and the person with this hair was the same girl Cardinal Bishop had described in detail.

"Rosette Clark, you can stay behind. The rest of you can return to your rooms now."

The Cardinal spoke Rosette's name, and that made other kids turn toward her with envy.

Even Rosette looked shocked by what had happened, but since her name had been called, she could not refute the Cardinal's words.

Everyone else went back except another kid. He stuck by Rosette's side and refused to let go.

"I did not remember asking for someone other than Rosette Clark to stay back. Get going now, kid, and I will forget about this insult you are slapping me with."
