Chapter 322
Renee felt her pulse quicken but she kept calm and said, “Really? I don’t see the difference. It’s the same style but different
material.”
“Same style but different material...” The servant touched Renee’s clothes and scoffed, “This is actual silk. There’s no way such
a luxurious material would be used to make a servant’s uniform!”
‘What incredible eyesight! It’s no surprise that even a servant of the Baldwin family is so clever,’ Renee thought, thoroughly
impressed.
However, she didn’t panic. She remained composed and said confidently,” Maybe it’s an upgrade. The Baldwin family is a
powerful family with a high social status, so it’s not surprising that they want their servants to have good clothes. Are you trying
to question the Baldwin family’s decision?”
“No. That’s not what I mean!” The servant immediately explained, ‘The Baldwin family is the most powerful family in the world
and I am loyal to them. I’m simply cautious when it comes to certain things.”
“Should we see Madam Sophia to confirm whether she could afford it or not?”
“No, there’s no need for that!” The servant didn’t dare to bother Sophia for such a small matter. She waved her hand and urged,
“Stop wasting time. Let’s go!”
The two walked in the dark for a long time until they arrived at a courtyard on the outskirts. There was a hut somewhere behind
the forest. On the door of the hut hung a board that said ‘Confession room’.
‘This is it. Guard this place with your life. No matter what she says or does, don’t open the door. Don’t give her anything too. Just
wait until the superior gives further orders,” the servant told her solemnly.
“She’s in here?” Renee glanced at the simple hut dubiously. She didn’t think that the confession room would be a small room
with nothing inside. It looked like something from ancient times.
“What were you expecting?” The servant scoffed, then continued proudly,” Old Master Hunt said that the highest level of
punishment isn’t physical, but mental. By putting her here, she’ll lose her freedom and connection to the world. Eventually, she’ll
forget time and yearn for death.”
“It makes sense, but there’s something I don’t understand. How will she lose connection with the world and forget time?”
‘The hut may appear to be run-down from the outside, but the walls are soundproof. Apart from air, she’ll only be surrounded by
white walls. The most terrifying aspect is that sound cannot be transmitted inside,” the servant explained.
‘Normal people would feel like an eternity had passed if they were locked in there for even half an hour. They’ll definitely lose
their minds if they’re locked inside for more than three days!”
When Renee heard this, she couldn’t help but shudder. ‘That’s terrifying!”
She imagined the despairing feeling of being locked up in a room with four walls, unable to hear a single sound.
‘With Francine being so impatient and short-tempered, she’d definitely lose her mind in three hours,’ Renee thought to herself.
She had to save Francine as soon as possible!
“You’d best believe it, so don’t you dare betray the Baldwin family. If you do, the next person to be locked up inside will be you,”
the servant warned her.
“Don’t worry, I’m loyal to the Baldwin family. I would never betray them,’ Renee lied and urged the servant to leave.
