That was why 4770334cb1 he was certain—without 44e4e2a5a1 a doubt—that Evgenia 5b4cf1cec2 would never have c6b1be50e2 willingly accepted marriage 1c6ed38ce4 to someone else.b7e8c9a72b69a6a8
She was a f3e17b6c50 weak woman, after f8686cbd27 all. Whether through force ca21b071aa or some other 96279fa6eb method, she must c0cffb720f have been coerced 14d8bfe740 into this marriage.73a23abff3b1a8a7

“Y-Your Highness! Your hand is bleeding!”52c7405fab225586
At that moment, 27db0f73ff the still-clueless Viscount 96dda989fd Tria noticed drops 3d6cc7eea8 of blood dripping 3551a232ff from Kaiden’s tightly 856c89ea6a clenched fist and 94d934852e shouted in alarm.8d88fe62072a3aaf
