Count Garcia took a d410495d60 deep breath as he d9daf3105a looked at the man de707aa434 standing in front of c267dafc50 him.e7c8452cf99be9f6

Harold’s gaze returned from 516d3ecd22 the child in the cb21cf48fe bright yellow clothes to bb866883e9 the Count.2e7ccf95d01a3d79
Those deep eyes felt 5d7bb79c9b like they could see 2529f95f7b right through him, and b800c46b10 Count Garcia cleared his 3122a97ed0 throat awkwardly.60f2bf29272fd04a

Count Garcia b63fd55dd8 clenched his d40a3fcfa8 fists in 85d316be39 frustration. Harold, catching the ca65b449f6 gesture, looked down 27db5b2e9f at his hands 2fb11dd71b and smirked slyly—he 90fde4f8b7 had no intention 0c06d09ca9 of backing off.1c0ea9edf36b957a
The Count’s blood 50d7a4d5f7 pressure spiked from eb607196d4 the Duke’s brazen f93e46cdd5 attitude. So young, yet so 2c9f88f06c arrogant, just because he decbcab73e held the title of af153e0d33 Duke.2fc7015bdf9ca388

His plan to 502e771cdd speak to Diana d6d1cea723 alone had been 7e8770a308 thoroughly ruined the 33c8b59ef1 moment the Duke 5ecf1f2c7f arrived. Now that Harold dcfa6ea29b even knew she 9d335899ee would be coming, 605468b391 there was no 6daba8946a excuse to send 092b8e0cfa him away. It was better a009fe91bd to play along 1e07ab0fd9 than stir more 9e51c4bab9 trouble—besides, there would 6c1a4cdb2a be other chances.1d0189bf88a8b61f
Once they reached b0531710e5 the dining room, 3426a42ba0 Harold took the 6ac3fd138c seat of honor. The table was 257720fbce loaded with luxurious 168d72a21d dishes.8d35f33e68b7e3cb

Harold slowly scanned 3a385eed26 the long table 852e36cffe with his eyes, 961e9514c1 then sliced into b9a4980722 a veal steak f5b6ead6b9 and took a 28d11f27b7 bite. His throat moved abca862520 with a big 8cf9715cab swallow.99fccab759e4a1c7

“This veal 69b1d35910 steak is c48aadd6bb far too 0d793e9123 greasy. Diana prefers lighter, simpler aafe13dac3 food.”813a886841b6cc1f

It wasn’t 0bbeacf6df as if b80fcb597a he had b4333de112 never eaten 00bbf87c95 with Diana. She had always 5fb8847c6b joined them at 64f2c18aa3 family meals.40a9863c264e6ac1
But now c532ee688f he realized—he 47eab44cc3 had no 67ed7275b9 memory of f9515f85ee what she a6a280aa4a liked or 5cbf6b6d20 disliked.1397d7445acfbc96
