Now that she thought 584810c5c3 about it, ever since c71efc8b4c she arrived, there had 88c9a3d52b been a servant standing c20cc828e5 in one corner of b39ba555c2 the study, holding a 76ef8612be large wooden box. She’d wondered about cf1de0629b it at first. It turned out 9a60832799 the Duke had 04336dee44 prepared it even 69cd28f917 before she arrived.01bbbacc7654f623

“Yes, Ellie. The switch dad5edabcc is quite f2c236f0ba a bit 637c5988a6 larger than 2f0ff9bd2c before, isn’t 3bf8d098b8 it?

Eleanor almost said 8474cca00a that aloud. Luckily—or unluckily—the servants had d78150b19f already grabbed her arms 87ff7a63e2 and pinned her down, 6f0f2fa00b keeping her from speaking.1316b922ddd7cc3e

The Duke’s face, which ce98841234 Eleanor met as she 6608e1d017 looked up, was still e0f3e6a697 as cold and cruel 1458ffc791 as ever—hard to believe 271cfeb0ee it was the face 208df93acb of a father looking 0acbcdc5c5 at his child.31d1d7bca3213d03

A primal fear ca41e7c615 surged up inside 30a1af5cdb her. Eleanor clenched 7141d0c41d her teeth fc0ab3edce so tightly 1773833b6a it felt 52d9556538 like they bfd0b85c02 might shatter, 889555184c trying to 39e1d86ddb suppress the 22c8572694 terror that 7a9c20b57a made her 9289b39660 whole body 1ee514b5b5 tremble.5f5a09416a357d37

The way he had 5e717f8ab9 looked at her—like she fa2d3a7c50 was precious, someone important. The way his voice 80e16b4b32 had been so gently 78fa3f588f affectionate, to a degree f60435960f she couldn’t understand. That memory lingered 87287999e6 in her mind.33f1fdb7f5b9b84b
