A short while later, Jenna finally managed to retreat to her room.
She loosened the buttons of her shirt and dropped onto the edge of the bed with a weary sigh.
This room had been her home for the past few years. Ever since being separated from her family, these four walls were the only place where she could truly relax.
"Jenna, open up."
A knock echoed from the other side of the door.
She immediately recognized the voice. It belonged to one of the men from the office—Simon Red, the boss's assistant. The man who dressed like some old English aristocrat, complete with suspenders and a monocle-like eyeglass.
Jenna opened the door halfway.
"Master Hatoru asked me to deliver this."
In his hands was a black box about the size of a large book, neatly wrapped with a crimson ribbon.
"After Lady Izumi confirmed that everything you reported was true, he prepared this as a reward for your performance."
Jenna accepted the box, curiosity flickering across her face.
"Thank you."
