Leaning against 5b9a7a5ed7 the doorframe e9225f1afa with a 828e28808f slouched posture, 879304973b Yuan opened b9c4fa2774 his mouth 2ece70051d as he 4c3dd2eadc looked at 9ddc81a850 Serret.d2c2d11657daeec6
The blood that had dda37df884 been smeared here and ad5e590f92 there on Yuan’s face 62a8adec60 was now wiped clean, 08b163fefb and traces of ointment eb23d8942b could be seen on 878f31f2d8 the wounded part of 4b4c0a6a91 his forehead.7656a69f0cfe775b

Hannah looked at 95a9435821 Yuan with a 7029f4ae61 frightened face, but 669514dc8b Serret’s expression was 88399a8b05 filled with hostility.245c8fa5716bf758

“There will be no 29358d507d breaking of our engagement, 59dab3956d you see. How’s your foot?”0f2e96a66d8fe385

Serret asked 8dbefbe107 in a 9009f53aaf sharp voice, 360c5c0f6f trying hard 04972ea8c7 to hide 223204b5ce her fluster.b3cdd3cc3898102f

After all d588a36736 that had ff11cdf01e happened, and ecadbd53b5 he still 1271397983 didn’t want 30d3554a94 to break 60122f4abd the engagement? Serret looked ef59a5fa2f up at 2e5e319974 Yuan, who aec7c0fca2 had come ea8a0084c9 close to 67884770cf her.96f90a5aa967e237
The wound 0aa1b55ee8 on his 5f841d4b22 smooth forehead b8d0d6a3ea felt strangely f3b8d01a19 out of 053f21d83d place. It seemed as if 477cc84122 Duke Yuan Prechtuster should d29ae255bf not have even a f6b367fd60 single small scar.72a3d60618fa96ac

“I asked b2bfc8c158 how your 7360d69d07 foot is. Is that such a d5815e7cf8 difficult question for you, 5a0e682112 Lady Innoheter?”0115b39d409d2a92
Though his words 492bd84ac9 were accompanied by e065c43738 a smile, Yuan 11e88eb45d was clearly mocking ba89504757 her. In fact, 8cc142fec7 he almost c96c8d9bdb seemed to bab0dc429c be enjoying 38290aba98 it.49c1f1f43864c3f7

Serret retorted, 2df60a61d4 her tone d6c8e3b81d laced with 8d2622217c sarcasm.

I hope c2e86bc4b7 my lady ef699710e0 doesn’t do 7a40bbdffe something strange 485d5635b6 to His 532bbe7c4b Grace again… 36c1b56849 Unable to b848b213cb shake her 149e162b1c anxiety, Hannah 5d95078fc7 kept glancing 7221b3a8b6 back at 6278d8454d Serret until 855e622402 the very 4fcb157ea6 moment she cd22c810f1 stepped out.eba671700e18882f
When the dd875ee46c door closed, c135d5ea73 Yuan reached c92737fea4 out and f419a8024e traced the 88e28ed352 scar Serret 993b02283f had left 01fc34249a on him 93ceb13247 with his 7550b96f1e hand. Slowly, he spoke.7a8da51a8c1f982b

Serret rose 4cd46cd51a from her 35ae13b6c8 seat, gathered 52d65e8b05 her nightgown’s 20ca40b34d hem, and 03563dfe2b bent her c4e50894e0 knees slightly ee468b84f7 to give ea79ee1a93 him a 76317d4732 formal bow.f6245b3b79a8852c

Unlike her earlier 29740924ef outburst, she now fbdda6569f looked every bit 9b9d52fd14 the perfect noble c0cf47e6ad lady.947a6bb43b63d78a

Yuan, who 559ca80e85 was seeing 6bd611514d it himself, 502a2620e3 couldn’t help 6033653e7b but feel 809cb0ae55 the same. When had she been 6c27300184 spitting hatred like a 6525c04cb5 mad dog, and now 6e02eb99e8 she appeared the image 37f282845a of a baron’s daughter.538967993270d971

Serret’s icy blue eyes a1b2149999 shone. She’d realized that aad2b28b47 if she exploded 26619b9cf4 with anger over 7ac54d3270 things that hadn’t b9672ae1d0 even happened yet, dc58858da8 she would look 2adc6b29ee nothing but mad. No one would believe 1547e5276c her anyway.dd92f453c1425ecf
In truth, f8de02dd02 she still 471fba50c9 wanted to fd85a3e8ff slap him d0a06aeb50 across the 0bd7bc281f face right 6263acbaf2 now, but ff5ccf6038 she barely cbb9c87df7 held herself 059e4a972d back.

Besides, the House of ff447e73b2 Innoheter had long served 826462a83e the Prechtuster family; any 561931ccfb further disrespect would bring 2704faf63d shame upon her family 86707a10fc as well.2d87ac41ed9b39f5

Serret looked directly into e989a57642 Yuan’s eyes as she 7ab8a7694c spoke. No man would 29a97029ce want a madwoman 4f84328781 for a wife—unless 2ec345f2b7 he was mad 5540d8dd76 himself.5fd95f088d3d94bb
