Carol intends to come forward and help Leticia, but Zoya forbids her and detains the woman.
" No ! aren't you afraid of Miss Giselle? you'll get in trouble if you interfere with his business!" zoya said
" But, Miss Leticia.. " Carol scrunched her forehead, and looked anxiously at Leticia who seemed to be looking sharply at Giselle.
" Look down, I trust Miss Leticia. He can definitely handle her, and if anything happens to him, he can ask for the help of prince Darren. While a small person like us, it would be difficult to get involved with a noble lady like her "Zoya explains their situation
" Zoya, you're right too. But why was he so scared? " ask Carol wonder
" Not to be feared anyway, rather no one wants to deal with him" Zoya replied
Zoya, Carol and a few other people are huddled there. Leticia helped the little boy named Max stand up.
" This child.he's hurt pretty badly, how could they do this.." poor inner Leticia saw Max in the beat up.
" You better step aside, lowly servant. It's none of your business "Giselle's ruffled waist with her cynical face
" Why should I step aside when I see there is injustice in front of me?" ask Leticia
" Injustice? whatchu mean? instead I'm upholding justice here, it shouldn't be, I'm punishing people who steal " said Giselle confidently
" really? then can you explain to me, why can you accuse this kid of stealing? "
" I'm not accusing ! this bracelet is proof !" giselle said stubbornly
" Can that be proof? could what this boy said be true, if he bought this bracelet for his mother?! why do you want to tell people to hit him? are not your actions outrageous! aren't bracelets like this a lot on the market?!" Leticia railed against the woman with many questions
Everyone started whispering whispers and talking about the cruel Giselle. They confirmed the words of Leticia who said that the bracelet was sold a lot in the market, and they also argued that Giselle should not indiscriminately accuse someone just because he was a beggar.
Giselle did not want to lose, she replied to Leticia. And they had a great debate !
" Haa.. wouldn't it make no sense for a beggar like her to buy such an expensive item like this bracelet? how able he was to buy her, it was clear he stole her, because my bracelet was lost when he passed her earlier "Giselle smiled cynically.
" How can you be sure it's your bracelet, miss? is accusation really your nature?" ask Leticia not happy
" It's so arrogant of you. All right, I'd like to bet with you. If this child is indeed a thief, then I will hit you 10 lashes" Giselle said with a cynical smile
" You won't be able to prove this child's innocence, just be ready I'll whip you"
" If I can prove that this boy is innocent? what am I gonna get?" ask Leticia not to be afraid
The people who crowded more and more, they whispered and praised Leticia's courage, there were also those who insulted her.
" How dare that girl go against Duke Xavier's daughter? not afraid of death, right ?" said a woman in astonishment
" wasn't he very brave" said a man praising
" hey hey. It's not her brave, but stupid. He was just arrogant, a servant but dared to dare to fight against the daughter of the minister of defense of this country "
" waiter? is there really such a pretty waitress? look, her hair is very unique. The hell time at the waiter?" ask a man who doesn't believe
" So you didn't hear Miss Giselle say that she was a lowly servant" said one woman
Such are the whispers of the people against his courage. The little boy asks that Leticia not interfere into his problem, he does not want to see anyone else get hurt because of her. Not far away, a hooded man noticed Leticia and Giselle.
" Well, what do you want me to do if I lose the bet? you want gold, money, or maybe expensive clothes?" giselle asked in her arrogant tone
" Is there just that in the lady's brain? I don't need any of that. If I win a bet I want your apology on this kid, and I'm gonna slap you 20 times. How's it?"
" Who's afraid, that's if you win. I'll let you slap me " said Giselle dismissively
" Deal, people here so witness "Leticia smiles confidently.
" How dare a lowly servant challenge the "inner miss of a bodyguard by Giselle's side
The hooded man who had seen her from earlier, admired Leticia's bravery. " It's not wrong that my cousin chose a woman, she was indeed quite attractive. In this case, I became more and more eager to have her "murm the man with a grinning smile.
" Miss, don't do this ! you don't have to do this for me. Don't interfere!! " max said pleading
" You don't have to be afraid, I'm here. I can't help but interfere if a child gets hurt especially because of injustice. "
" But, miss will get in trouble because of me.."
" It's okay, it's my responsibility to interfere. It's not your fault little brother. Now, I want to ask for your help" said Leticia softly
" problems have always been a part of my life, even since I was alive as Cha Yoon Joo "inner Leticia
" what do you want to ask for help?" ask Max with his innocent face
" Answer my question, you can't steal, can you?"
" No, I didn't steal. I bought this bracelet for my mother "A Max replied with complete confidence
" I believe you, therefore you must help me to prove your innocence. And punishing that woman "Leticia smiled cunningly
" This lady is so nice, she's the only person who believes in me. Though others accuse me of stealing, I am deeply moved.." Max's mind glazed over
" Is it time I play detective Conan?? haha "inner Leticia enjoyed the challenge with pleasure
" Okay, first of all what's your name?" asked Leticia while extending her hand and smiling kindly
" I'm Maxime, but people call me Max." said Max shyly shaking Leticia's hand. " What's the name of Miss?"
" I'm Leticia, don't call me Miss. Just call brother ", said Leticia kindly
" Angels..." Max muttered as he looked at Leticia's face
The woman had Giselle wait for 15 minutes, as she would find her evidence. First Leticia and Max go to the merchant who sold the bracelet and interrogate him. At first the merchant did not dare to speak, but finally due to Leticia's persuasion, the merchant spoke honestly.
" Do you let an innocent child be punished? if this kid dies because of being punished by that goddamn noble lady, then it's all my fault too !" said Leticia dramatically, she acted brightly.
" Bwee. finally acting Cha Yoon Soo who I always ridiculed, also used at a time like this. Hopefully useful deh.." Inner Leticia felt disgusted by her own acting
" Why did the angel sister say such a scary thing? I'm not gonna die just for stealing, at least I'm just locked up. Or my hand cut off " plain Max said
" WHAT?? so the law in the country is like this? " ask Leticia in shock
The jeweler and Max are shocked to see that Leticia just found out about the law in the land of Ilios.
" Unfortunately, that tyrant psychopath can kill people at will. It turns out that the law is not so enforced in this world. Is someone's life in this world not worth much? everyone can accuse and punish. Is it because of status? " inner Leticia thought
" Why is my sister surprised? this is a law that is commonplace in every country" Max said in astonishment
" Is Miss not here?" ask the confused merchant
After her conversation with the merchant was over, Leticia and Max went to Max's workplace. It was there that he earned money to buy gifts for his mother, Leticia was concerned that Max was working as a freight forwarder. The usual work done by adults.

15 Minutes had already passed, Giselle was waiting for Leticia in annoyance. Shortly after, Leticia, Max, the merchant and Max's boss approach Giselle. People began to swarm them, out of curiosity what would happen. Who will be humiliated here?
Gustaf also casually watched the drama of the strife of the two beautiful women.
With evidence and witnesses, Leticia is confident that she will win the case and makes the haughty girl named Giselle apologize.
" well, first question for the trader sir. Is it true Max bought a bracelet in your store?" asked Leticia in an introductory tone
" Right "
" Is that this bracelet?" ask Leticia while showing her a red gem bracelet
" Right "the merchant replied loudly
" Cih, just like that cannot prove what "murm Giselle underestimates
" What? me?" Giselle was surprised
" Did you buy a bracelet from this merchant's father?" ask Leticia
" No "
" Where did you buy it? can't you buy it from a small merchant like this father?" ask Leticia
" I bought it at the biggest accessories store in the region" replied Giselle confidently
" Well, because the bracelet's the same, you're accusing Max of stealing your bracelet?" ask Leticia
" I'm not accusing ! he actually stole his bracelet, don't you also conspire with this merchant to lie?" giselle was upset
" It's wrong not to confess, instead accusing people. You mustn't be allowed to, prince Darren, your fiance is so evil "inner Leticia.
Afterward Max's boss said that the little boy worked to buy his mother a bracelet. The merchant also said that Max was carrying the pennies when buying bracelets at his store. The people there begin to trust Leticia and Max, and Giselle is desperate.
" isn't my lady so great?" ask Carol proudly
" yes, he really looks amazing. Like. like state security officers . Cool !!" zoya said with eyes full of admiration
Giselle was frozen, she could not stand up to Leticia who had brought evidence.
" he stole it !
" How dare he make me like this, watch out for you. I'll reply !" inner Giselle was angry
" you still want to dodge again? obviously this bracelet belongs to him and not yours !" leticia was upset
" Still is ! my bracelet's gone and I don't know where. My bracelet must have been stolen by him !"
" Ooho.. is that so? then is your bracelet a real gem? you must be very worried about her, right? because there's no way you're gonna keep looking for her bracelet?" ask cynical Leticia
" Right, of course it's a real bracelet .." replied Giselle.
" Haha .. This jewel bracelet is a clone and not the real one, where might this be yours?" Leticia laughed disdainfully
" Where do you know that the bracelet is an artificial bracelet? lowly waitresses like you know what?" giselle asked humbly
The people there laughed at Leticia's bravery. The woman stared at the people around her, smiling confidently.
" Foolish" muttered Leticia while smiling in a grin
" I'll prove it to you and to the people here right now. Merchant sir, do you have a mirror or a magnifying glass? " ask Leticia
" What does he want to do?" inner Giselle
" shall miss " replied the merchant
Soon the jeweler took a magnifying glass. Leticia took it, she said out loud if her gem bracelet was real, then it would not be translucent by the sunlight, if her gem was fake or imitation then the opposite happened. Leticia also borrows a jewel ring worn by Giselle to prove her worth.
Gustaf who had just been watching, began to smile and show his admiration for Leticia. "now I know why Alexander is so obsessed with him.." murmured the man slowly
And sure enough, Max's gem bracelet is a fake and Giselle's gem ring is the real one.
" It's been proven, right? still want to dodge again, noble lady?" asked Leticia with a bright smile
The crowd began to talk about Giselle, who had lost to Leticia. Everyone applauded Leticia's ingenious act that saved Max from severe punishment.
" How can a noble lady not be able to distinguish between a real gem and an imitation?"
" ckckck really embarrassing.."
" Want to put where Duke Xavier's face would be if he knew his daughter like this "
" Fuck ! where did she have such a way, she humiliated me "inner Giselle was upset
" Ken, let's go !" giselle said to take the bodyguard away
" Where are you going, miss? after accusing and beating an innocent child, are you just going to leave?" ask Leticia
Giselle grew increasingly annoyed at the cynical gazes the people in the market were looking at her. It felt like he wanted to kill the woman who had embarrassed him, but he could not do it because there were many people there.
" You're.really "
" See her? he seemed to be holding back the "inner Leticia who was satisfied
" Have you forgotten our agreement? if you lose, what do you do? don't tell me that I should remind you, you're a smart noble lady "Leticia smiled and her tone seemed insinuating
" the bitch! it's worth it that you can seduce Prince Darren, it turns out that you're very cunning "inner Giselle
" I remember.I have to apologize, right. Son, I'm sorry to accuse you " Giselle told Max in a flat tone
The wicked woman turned her back and walked away, but Leticia stopped her steps boldly.
" What else ?!" ask Giselle
" His slap 20 times hasn't been loh" Leticia replied casually
" You seriously want to slap me? I am the daughter of the minister of defense in this country! are you going to die??" giselle was upset
" then why are you the minister's daughter? even if you are the King's daughter, I will keep your promise. You said I could slap you, people heard it too. Would you like to be more embarrassed?" whispered Leticia while smiling sarcastically
" You dare you.you'll regret it.." Giselle clenched her hands in annoyance

Leticia slapped Giselle 2 times, and she looked satisfied. Everyone there was shocked to see Leticia's treatment of such great damage to herself. Giselle felt angry and hurt, humiliated in public.
" There are 18 more slaps, but I'll let you this time. My hand has hurt enough to slap your cheek, it turns out you have a thick face too. Remember this lesson, noble lady, you must not underestimate the little people.. " Leticia stared intently at Giselle who looked annoyed, the woman glazed over like she was about to cry.
" grim.from now on I don't want to be bullied anymore.and I don't want to see innocent people punished for not being unjust." Leticia's inner self is determined.
" How dare you go to Miss ! you'll get a lowly waitress reply " Ken said angrily
'' Your miss who was wrong for daring to bet with me, why are you even mad at me? wonder deh. ckckck " said Leticia relaxed
Giselle and her bodyguards left in a fit of annoyance from the market. The woman swore revenge on Leticia as she visited Ilios' palace later.
Everyone praised Leticia's courage and they invited her to be friends. A lot of people approached him too. Carol and Zoya are proud of Leticia. Zoya goes on to say that from now on she is a fanatical fan of Leticia !
" Huftt. I almost believe you Max "Leticia smiled at Max and breathed a sigh of relief.
Max suddenly burst into tears, taking his mother's bracelet.
" Why are you crying?" ask Carol wonder
" Daughter, are you okay?" ask Zoya wonder
" Is anyone sick? they hit you hard, didn't they? I should have given that woman even more of a lesson "mumbled Leticia annoyed
" T. thank you brother guardian angel life.thank you .hiks hyks "Max look at Leticia with great admiration.
" A life guardian angel?" Zoya, Leticia and Carol are shocked to hear.
