Taya swallowed nervously in fear. It was Orig Desman, seething with rage. "What have these fools done? I specifically instructed them to disguise themselves well and to distribute the food!"
Taya lightly tapped her forehead, trying to ignore his piercing gaze. Orig grabbed her arm and pulled her with him toward the door. He paused to signal one of the guards outside to check on Princess Luyan's room.
Taya didn't notice Orig's signal to the guard, lost in her own thoughts about her slip-up. She had placed too much trust in the guards. If Airo had been here, he wouldn't have let her plan fail.
"Yes, Orig Desman, I supervised the cooking and requested that it be distributed to all those suffering due to the epidemic. Is there a problem with that?"
He released her arm, shaking his head, running a hand through his hair. "Wow, wow, wow… Your husband here was confident you wouldn't do something like defy his orders and... everything else…"
