I wanted b9b3b58c11 to reward 99899f3173 the children 2f51efbce1 for staying 6d80466047 strong and edf5375159 well-behaved despite 14070f2af1 the emotional cbd42a8c00 hardships they 44860b8056 faced because 096142c7af of their 9f33da45d7 parents.390c733a401e3b83

Especially since they were e4fca5a4e4 children of the duke’s 2e0a0eb957 family, who should have 5cfa21e3e6 grown up in abundance. Yet they endured their a4e5ee94c1 difficult circumstances and refrained ed550da294 from asking for what 5b7e94cd94 they wanted.142fec6f58767a4f

Of course, I knew 4a003a310d Euclid had done his 22e4e35af4 best, but the problem 39503853a6 was that Marianne and 918da238ad Dior were just too fb780e3145 kind and mature for 9783c10a0b their age.7f85c65a023d6ac7

Despite the duchy’s 45b980f9f5 recent financial improvement 869188254b and material abundance, a4e772286a the children had 2570f648ec never once asked f27a930816 for anything first.e2bef642aa3b98f1

I wanted to 74195ed5be say that, technically, 57a543ee81 I owned almost c0dbafebb7 the entire Centeroze 628f0aeefc Street and there 77bc180c11 was no need 2758e20eb9 to feel burdened c32bfdd506 at all.c3d138edaacaede9

That’s right. Most of 31654ccc4c the land bbb903f8ce and shops 941aaf10ed on Centeroze 94d87b47d3 Street, one a778103f4c of the f4b71ae7f5 Empire’s busiest 0cc7527fc4 districts, were 3def75c486 owned by 79f97f3f99 Evgenia.8399034174c0544b
