6 Camilla

"Yes," Adela responded.

"My lady, Ms. Camilla, is here to greet you," a maid said as she entered the chamber, trying to lower her head.

"Camilla?"

Adela said enthusiastically while widening her eyes. She stood up and ordered the maid, "What is there to wait for? Escort her here."

"Yes, my lady," the maid said, going out of the chamber as she spoke.

Elise asked Adela in a startled tone, "Are you okay, my lady?"

Elise was startled to see Adela. After waking up from the sickness, she observed Adela was acting so strangely.

"yes I-".

But just as Adela was ready to say something, she heard Camilla's voice.

"Adela," a sweet, calming voice spoke from behind Adela.

When Adela turned to face the door, she spotted her best friend standing there.

The image of that night flashed across her memory in an instant.

'Camilla? I didn't find you in your chamber that night. Maybe they poisoned you as well, or maybe you were also killed by them,'~ Adela thought.

Adela's best friend, Camilla Victor, is the daughter of the count, David. She is also stunning and bashful, as well as a mage. Her complexion is milky white, with red lips, crimson eyes, and light red hair.

Adela tightened her lips before running up to Camilla. "I missed you, Camilla," she murmured as she tightly hugged Camilla.

Camilla couldn't figure out what was wrong with her because she had come to meet Adela just the day before. Adela was unconscious, so she was not aware. Adela looked as though she hadn't seen Camilla in a while, which was regrettable.

Camilla smiled and asked, "Are you okay, Adela?"

Adela released Camilla after giving her a glance and a silent nod.

"Adela, I'm happy to learn that you're feeling better. You did not know how worried I was," but Adela interrupted her and said, "I know that you were pretty concerned and stayed with me the entire day."

"How do you know that?" Camilla asked.

She was a little taken aback when she heard it. Elise nodded blankly when Camilla turned to face her.
