"That honor belongs to me, Marquess Daedalus. Thank you for accepting the invitation. I'm sure a Prime Minister like you is too busy to merely reply to my simple request."
Marquess Daedalus snorted slightly, then sat back down before Melisa allowed him to. The man seemed to have seen something in Melisa. Therefore, Marquess Daedalus felt he didn't need to be too polite to Melisa anymore.
"I'm very busy, yes. But when someone accuses me of heinous crimes without clear evidence, I still need to free up my time so that the slander doesn't develop into something dangerous."
"Because you have experienced it, I'm sure you know how fatal the consequences of someone's words can be."
Melisa stopped smiling when she understood the meaning of Marquess Daedalus' words. Melisa took a seat in front of Marquess Daedalus. Only after a while, a fake smile appeared on Melisa's lips again.
