NOT THE USUAL CINDERELLA (Season 2)

ASSIGNMENTS FOR MADAME ROSE AND ALEA

“O, yes. There's something I want to show you both. A photo of a woman, who is likely the one who had the plaque found by Madame Rose the night that an assassination attempt was made against her highness Vincent.” Alvero said as he opened the phone screen, then placed it on the table in front of them.

The eyes of Madame Rose and Alea instantly scanned the image of a middle-aged woman on Alvero's mobile screen. The woman who according to the existing information, is the same woman that Eliana met secretly in the city of Renhill, is, and the female figure indicated had wandered around Vincent's room moments before the assassination attempt in Vincent's room which was caught wet by Deanda and Alvero. And lucky they both can thwart the assassination attempt.

"Eh, isn't it... That servant who only worked in the palace for a few days went out for no apparent reason? Suddenly he no longer came to the palace after the attempted murder." Madam Rose said in a soft and doubtful tone of voice, as her forehead frowned trying to recall, and made sure what she had just said was indeed true.

"I've seen him at a glance, but only at street fights, never really looking him in the face." Madam Rose said again while taking a deep breath.

“According to the info, the woman became a worker at the palace a few days before the assassination attempt, and she served on the empress' servant team which was still held by the snake woman. And additional information there mentions, the woman worked in the palace because of a reference from Eliana. I don't know what Eliana's relationship is with that woman, which certainly doesn't seem to be just a relationship between her master and her servant.” Alvero said as he glanced back at the photo plastered on his phone screen with a small snort heard from his nose.

“I will remember well the face of the woman Your Majesty. But... if Your Majesty allows, I want to get the photo so that I can ask Rock for help looking for his tracks as well as info about who the woman is.” Alea said as he lowered his head, showing respect towards Alvero. Alea herself could not say anything about the woman in the photo because she had come to the palace after the attempted murder had passed.

Upon hearing Alea's request, Alvero glanced at Deanda who unhesitatingly nodded her head in agreement with Alea's request and believed that Alea was a trustworthy person. Deanda knew that Alvero, who did not know Alea, had to ask for the opinion of his wife who knew them well for a long time.

“Mmmmm. All right, I'll send it to you.” Alea immediately smiled at Alvero's reply.

For Alea, no one was more expert than Rock in finding information about someone, even people who might have traces of his life erased from people who had known him, he said, something that may be difficult for ordinary people to obtain.

“There is one more thing that I need to convey to His Majesty and the Empress. Some time ago, Queen Mother Eliana had tried to overhaul the arrangement of servants in charge of serving the Empress with several new people whose recruitment was directly carried out by the queen mother, before the empress entered the palace as Her Majesty's fiancee. Because His Highness had some time ago asked Erich and Ernset to dismiss all those who had just worked in the palace. Looks like Queen consort Eliana used another tactic.” Madam Rose said as she took a deep breath before continuing her words.

“Looks like Eliana won't stop before rotting in jail. Even for me, the prison sentence for him is too light given the many crimes he may have committed. And I don't know how many lives have fallen victim to his greed.” Alvero said while grunting in annoyance, showing him so emotional when mentioning Eliana's name and actions to those around him.

“Alea, find the names of the people Eliana's accomplices as soon as possible. All, not only the servants, but all the court workers including the guards, the gardeners, the stewards of the stables, the cooks. Including the ranks of the palace staff, Madam Rose had to watch over them well, and find anyone who was an accomplice of the snake woman. For Alea, as much as possible complete your task immediately, and leave it to me before me and the empress return from Renhill city. Tomorrow I'm going to Renhill to meet his highness Vincent. I ask that none of you tell anyone about my secret trip this time. And also.. when we both come back, I want whoever is on duty around me and the empress is our people.” Alvero gave the order while glancing at Deanda.

I have to do my best to always protect you. This time, I can't let my guard down like what happened at the stables that day. No one of Eliana's accomplices should be near you.

Alvero said in his heart, wishing Deanda was always safe and protected.

“Good Your Majesty.” Both Madam Rose and Alea instantly answered simultaneously the orders from Alvero.

“As long as we are in Renhill city, please keep an eye on Eliana's movements. I hope Madame Rose can help me make sense so that Queen Eliana doesn't go to Renhill for any reason. I don't want my plans to fall apart because of the presence of the bully woman. Find a way to hold it as much as possible in the city of Tavisha. I will leave Ernest with you at the palace, so that people do not suspect that I am leaving the city of Tavisha. If any of you need help, you can contact Ernest.” Alvero again gave orders to the ladies Rose and Alea. Trying to arrange as best as possible so that everything can go well, as long as he and Deanda are in Renhill city.
