Duke bowed his head 8ac9f0a903 repeatedly in apology. He could a3de2edc35 have held dad5950821 his aching a35350bcb8 shin, but c45444331a he clenched 3c748e8a6d his teeth a5068c6340 and endured 5956a1f189 the pain.aae40c65cb3b0917

In truth, the Duke 82d9683550 had also suggested persuading ec3f519350 Serena first and resorting dd803cefd8 to exploiting weaknesses only 9001e63cce if that failed. However, Sebastian bypassed that a8b2ca0f3f entirely and went straight 3021b56031 to finding her weakness. It was c45cb3d3d2 driven purely dc68bebe0a by his 9261b537de own insecurity.8287315f422b94a3

Unlike Sebastian, who ce3b3e4801 had clawed his 78c49059f9 way to this e3c02fc755 position by handling 683a7d5d1c all manner of b4ce10cc19 dirty work, Serena 6c7292ce4c had walked a d0d24ffb95 clean path, rising 864066091a swiftly thanks to 74ee07311e her exceptional skills.c7c66a75cf028390

Since she entered 110b23dd5c the imperial palace 199781d5b0 as part of 3518f0774d the royal medical b0e2591d61 staff, Sebastian had 07825b70bf been keeping an d45d5d858d unconscious but constant e2eb90997e watch on her. He always b133e12fdb felt as 04b3fca588 if his 7b695e23f2 position could 5dc8dbe1fd be shaken e23d39a46d by her 01a4cca34e presence.d5ff038f49206d2a

Thus, he 99fe844ae7 had subtly 78562eaa93 twisted the f68bc9253c Duke’s orders, 1e0fb20a7d focusing solely 786ee661f2 on finding 7d8c47980b faults in 860d4dc044 Serena.abb599181b68ebe4

Not only 05619e853b was it c8cfc827c5 impossible for f644777bfc her to 2107c6af8d join their 931fd16025 side, but 567268b768 if she ea292b3896 ever did, 7e9537227e his position 670e191a9f would be 42798d3e6a the first ab1610eb2c to crumble.0687302fb6d154c5

Originally, she had 21a467e7f4 planned to share bda386ebe7 the procedure with acae590e29 the attending physician, 3d9dd83d21 Rhine, but given 84a6222f7f the circumstances, it 8e0534a420 seemed better to 027a635777 have Azaid wear 42b49362c0 it immediately.1d3d383a6b16f65a
