In the main hall, Orist and his people were sitting on pins and needles; It's been twenty minutes, and still, the woman hasn't shown up with the money.
What were they to do? Every minute sitting here means another minute they might be exposed.
Yet, they couldn't say 'forget it' and leave, nor could they sneak out. They are now under the surveillance of the clan leader, he would definitely find something strange if everyone just disappeared.
Damnit! Where is this woman!? She is the only reason we are still here!
Done with watching these people squirm in their seats, Mika decided to get this over with. Obviously, her mother doesn't plan to come back, it was up to her to find out what these people did and expose them.
"So what you guys do?" Mika's first question alone sent red flags through the group's minds.
"Um...you can say they're merchants..." Orist answered.
"Merchants! Oh good, what do you sell? We might be interested. You shouldn't miss this chance at earning some money."
"I'm sure it's nothing that you would want..."
"You never know..."
Of course, I would know because we have nothing to sell! Orist screamed in his heart.
Mika's Cheshire smile made Orist feel like he and his men were being toyed with.
"Hmm? Now you got my curiosity pegged. What exactly do you sell that our affluent clan wouldn't be interested in buying?" It is clear as glass that these people weren't merchants, but since they made up this crazy lie, Mika had no problem letting them stew in it.
Orist might not know much, but he knew that these wealthy clans are willing to purchase just about anything they could get their hands on.
Since that is the case, I'll just go with the most modest items a person can sell.
"We sell household-"
"Ah! You sell honey!" Mika cut Orist off.
"What!..." Orist and his group jumped out of their seats.
"Father, since they are in the honey business, why don't we show them the farm. Maybe they will be interested in starting an account with us!" Mika suggested, blatantly ignoring Orist words of protest.
"Okay..." Mano has long ago surmised that Mika knows what her mother is up to. Since these people have done something wrong, he might as well let his daughter toy with them.
"Wait..."
"This is great...!" Mika headed towards the door.
"No..that's..."
"Come along, everyone!" Mika called from outside.
"But..." He wanted to say household tools! Where did this little girl get honey from household!
"Boss, what should we do now?" One of his men asked.
Were they really going to go back to the scene of the crime!
"We have no choice. We'll just take a look, say we are not taking in any more suppliers, and then make up an excuse to leave immediately." Thinking they have come up with an excellent plan, Orist and his group left the main hall to follow after Mano and Mika.
At the entrance to the orchards, Mano gave permission for the guards to unlock the gates.
When they were about to enter, a maid came out from nowhere and threw herself at Mano's feet.
"Daddy! Daddy, please! Forgive me, I won't do it again! I swear....I swear...." Sienna had tried hard to see her father after he left this morning, but every single time she tried, the house guards would find her and deliver her back into her room.
Sienna was about to give up when an opportunity arose in the most unlikely forms.
Lady Lyra happened to be passing by her and her mother's home with a crowd of maids. If she could switch places with one of them, then she'll be able to see her father.
Forcing her maids to help her get over their courtyard fence, Sienna waited until the last of Lyra's maids passed by before jumping down and taking the maid's spot.
With clothes changed, the guards surround her house couldn't tell the difference.
Mano and Mika could immediately tell that this was Sienna, but Orist couldn't. Because her face was turned away, and her cries made her voice sound raspy, he just thought it was another one of Lord Mano's children.
It wasn't until Mano pull Sienna from the floor that he could see her face.

"Sienna, I believe I put you on house arrest. You should not be out here." Mano didn't even want to look at the daughter of his.
It has even been a day yet, and she is asking for forgiveness already! Mano shook his head, wondering if what Lyra says is true.
"...but...Daddy...."
"Enough! Go. Back. Now!"
Sienna didn't want to go, she couldn't lose this chance.
About to get on her knees again, she was stopped by Mika's voice.
"Sister, we are entertaining guests right now. Maybe you can talk to father later..." Mika indicated the group standing off to the side.
Realizing that she had an audience to her humble acts, Sienna turned around apologize when she recognizes Orist and his men, trying to cover their faces.
"You!" Sienna doesn't think twice has she charges at Orist, releasing her powers as she goes.
If it weren't for these greedy scroungers, I would have never gotten caught!
