Becoming the Villain’s Family - Chapter 249
Chapter 249
The Emperor already know?
That was no different from the fact that the Emperor knew that Count Valois was being kidnapped, but turned a blind eye.
Of course the Count did not believe that.
‘It looks like she’s completely lost her mind.’
He judged that Sabina was crazy.
In fact, considering Sabina’s situation, it was understandable.
She is rushing in recklessly because she wants to somehow get revenge on the Count who put her in danger. Like a moth to fire!
“I was pitiful at you for being born, so I tried to let you die after becoming the Grand Duchess. But without knowing any gratitude, you crawled fiercely to the end!”
“…….”
“You should think about it carefully. Do you think dying right now would be the same after enjoying everything there is to offer?”
Sabina gave his threat a cold look and then stood up.
“I was too lazy to say it, so I skipped it, but you said it for me. So, do you want to die right now?”
She took from a luxurious envelope bearing the Emperor’s golden seal from her arms. Then she took out the document inside her and pushed it in front of the iron bars.
“What is this?”
“Physical Relinquishment Deed.”
What? The white-faced Count hurriedly crawled over and looked at what was written on the paper.
Of course, it wasn’t a real physical relinquishment deed. But he couldn’t feel at ease at all.
“This…!”
The right to interrogate the Valois family!
“No way! It must be a forgery!”
“Why do you think it doesn’t make sense?”
Sabina narrowed her eyes and doubtfully questioned his level of intelligence.
“You brought Castagne’s only descendant into the family and turned a blind eye the entire time.”
The Count could not help but be astonished till he was out of breath at those words.
“How on earth did you …!”
He reflexively let out an affirmation nuance and then hastily covered his mouth.
“You thought I wouldn’t know anything even though you sent me to Valentine. I don’t know why you were so clueless.”
In fact, there was a reason why Count Valois made a lax judgment.
The rumor has secretly spread that the brides who went to Valentine were like sacrifices and seedbeds.
He assumed that Sabina would not be treated as a human being there.
‘I bet you never imagined I’d be digging into the Allen thing.’
The Count clearly knew that Allen and Sabina had a close relationship with each other.
And then he read the note Allen left for Sabina.
‘After I read it, I buried it under a tree on the road. I dug a trap in case she ran away someday.’
Count Valois used the note left by Allen Castagne to find him three years ago and killed him.
And when he learned that Sabina had escaped to the port, he dragged her away and sent her to Valentine.
The deeper the events were dug, the more terrible the Count turned out to be.
“The crime of knowing that he was a traitor and turning a blind eye to it also constitutes treason.”
“Do you have proof? Do you even have proof that I was a bystander?”
“We found no evidence of neglect.”
Ha, look at that! How on earth does she find evidence that the Count knew everything but turned a blind eye?
“I did find evidence that you participated in the treason.”
The Count’s expression, which was about to burst into laughter, soon became distorted.
“That is why His Majesty the Emperor threw out Valois.”
He threw out Valois. At those words, the Count felt a shock that made his heart plummet to the bottom.
“Par, participated, that’s ridiculous! What do you mean participating! Is that really what you reported to His Majesty?”
“So it wasn’t treason?”
Sabina muttered lowly in a voice mixed with laughter.
“Are you saying that even though you are the one who paid the most for the rebels raised by Allen and became their source of funds?”
All those who supported the rebels were punished for their participation in treason. But among them, there was only one who was not punished.
‘An anonymous sponsor.’
And the one who sponsored the largest amount of funds. Valentine tracked him down and eventually discovered the source of the money.
It was Count Valois.
“If you weren’t involved, what was your intention in supporting them?”
“…….”
“Are you sure you have never made a donation to the rebels in your life?”
It was obvious.
“You probably did it because you had to increase the rebels’ strength.”
It has to be an enemy that the Emperor feels threatened by. So if it’s just a small-fry, he won’t be able to get a big price out of it.
To raise his status. The Count provided money and military support.
‘Also, if you plant a spy in advance, it will be easier to punish the rebels later.’
Sabina bit her lip.
“Did Allen die in your hands like that?”
“What’s wrong with that! Of course he should die. The bud of rebellion should be trampled!”
“Aren’t you the one who sowed the seeds, watered them, made them sprout, and trampled them down?”
And then he murdered them all. After using them thoroughly from the beginning…….
As she thought about Allen for a moment, her vision seemed to blur.
“After hearing their thanks, you probably acted like you did everything when you did nothing….”
Sabina mumbled and covered her eyes with her palms.
“Do you have any proof that I sponsored the rebels?”
Human testimony alone had no legal power.
The Count demanded that if there was such a thing, she should show it immediately.
With those words, Sabina lowered her hand.
Her eyes were burning with bright red anger.
“Could it be possible for me to be like this without any such thing?”
“What nonsense. What can you do…!”
At that moment, the Count thought of his wife.
