She has two choices:

1. Betray Sakaki Makoto and the other man, notify the security guard to catch the thief, then leave the manor alone and follow the path that the blonde lady took.

Keep the secret, complete the deal with Makoto Sakaki, follow him out of the manor, and refuse to be alone.

How to choose...

The girl already had a plan in mind.

Now, she doesn't have much sense of belonging to the Hughes family. Instead, she wants to go home and see every corner of the world.

but...

If she wants to leave the United States, she can't do it on her own.

In this matter, Makoto Sakaki and Kidd can help her a lot.

"There's no one in the library."

After making up her mind, the girl said:

"It's Grandpa in there."

"Liz..."

The blonde lady frowned:

"Didn't you understand the experience I told you about earlier?"

"There are bad people in this world, lots and lots of them..."

"You have to open your eyes and not blindly believe them."

The girl began to think about what had just happened.

The two people in the library had every opportunity to kidnap her and force her to hand over the key without having to pretend or deceive her.

Money? Sex?

They don't seem to pay attention to these.

In addition to his suspicious behavior and unknown identity...

The girl really couldn't find anything worth pondering about Sakaki Makoto and the other man.

They sent her a signal of goodwill through their actions.

Take a gamble...

It shouldn't matter.

"Aunt Catherine..."

The girl raised her head and said word by word:

"They had the opportunity to kill us, but they didn't."

"Since they can sneak into the manor quietly, it won't be difficult for them to kill us and leave."

"so..."

"I trust them, just like I trust you."

"Silly child..."

The blonde lady shook her head.

"It seems that you have made a decision that is completely opposite to what I did back then."

"Then I hope..."

"As you said, they are not bad people."

"Otherwise, I swear, the Hughes family will hunt them down to the ends of the earth, and never stop until they die!"
