41. Gladiator

After returning from the training school she had built, Ariana didn't go straight home, as she chose to tour around the capital first. Since she was busy with Alison's family matters, Ariana rarely had the chance to come to the capital again. The girl wanted to know how the capital was currently doing, as well as to hear the latest gossip about the palace that could be heard in the capital's taverns.For their convenience, Ariana suggested that they just walk to enjoy the atmosphere in the capital city. Ariana's gaze fell on the notice board in the town square, which was unusually swarmed by many people when she came.“What is going on over there?” asked Ariana curiously. Seeing a noble like Ariana's interest in the bulletin board, people immediately stepped aside to make way for Ariana.Even though Ariana didn't really like being treated special, the girl couldn't ask them to stop, so all she could do was thank them.

42. I'll Buy Him

As Ariana was about to enter the area within the arena when she was stopped by two burly guards whose bodies were twice the size of Valencia's. Both of them were carrying weapons and had scary faces until Valencia unknowingly grabbed the hilt of her sword in an alert pose.“Tell your boss that Ariana from Alison wants to talk to him.”Unlike Valencia, Ariana was very calm when she faced the two giants. One thing she knew from a place like this, this arena was also used to sell slaves as fighters for noble families. If she carried her surname, it was unlikely that the person in charge would ignore her. Even though her family is currently disliked by most nobles, her status as the only granddaughter of a duke still makes Ariana feared by many. Moreover, the size of the person in charge was only a Baron, so he definitely wouldn't refuse any of Ariana's orders.“Please come in.”Sure enough. When one of the guards returned, he immediately allowed Ariana and Valencia to enter the area. As

43. I Just Want to Help

While they were out, their group met the skinny girl that Ariana had previously bought. As the girl was forced to stand in front of the exit, her already pale lips turned blue from the cold. Ariana immediately took off her coat in a hurry. With her own hands, Ariana quickly put the poor girl on the coat she had just taken off. Ariana was a little pushy as the girl vehemently refused. If it was for the sake of goodness, Ariana had absolutely no hesitation in acting decisively on the girl.“I'd be mad if you took that coat off. Then Valencia, can we first stop by the boutique to get a new coat? Cornell must be cold too if he's only wearing light clothes in this cold weather.”Valencia nodded in response. “As you wish, My Lady. As for the Young Lady … Please temporarily use my coat. You and the others can enter the horse carriage first, Lady Aria. If I'm not mistaken, I saw a boutique not far from this place. Please wait for me when I buy coats for the others.”“Okay,” said Ariana. Helpe

As soon as they returned home, Ariana was immediately greeted by Jimmy, who was waiting for her at the door.

Plus, Jimmy also asked someone to call the doctor to check both of them.With Jimmy at home, Ariana knew she didn't have to worry about the two of them lacking anything as long as she was busy. The girl smiled slightly when she saw that Carla seemed to be amazed by her house, while Cornell still tried to look unconcerned, even though his eyes occasionally looked curiously at his new surroundings.“For now, you can follow Jimmy to take a shower while waiting for the doctor. Jimmy and his father, James, are the butlers in this house. Depending on the situation, the two will swap places to serve as butlers,” Ariana informed. Since she still had work to do, the girl had to return to work as soon as she arrived. Ariana let out a tired breath. Too bad

Yet, Ariana decided to keep quiet because getting her work done was more important than explaining things to Valencia right now.The next few hours were spent with just Valencia on guard and Ariana doing her job.

I apologize, but you must be examined first.”Valencia silently stared at Ariana as Jimmy spoke outside the room.
