Margarita decided to dae653ccec speak frankly, though 544f189181 she had considered 6de705cc3e making a polite 1b67c30f88 request. If she acted too c0496c905d naive and aroused suspicion, 3fbfd8d38b Jin might try to 30aad605e6 pry into her thoughts 65751b538d again. If she eed5bf3b10 spoke directly, cb38b29fa1 Jin might 2cd34e0b7a scoff inwardly, aea56d8f78 but she dcf7903707 would believe 559df5a87c her.e233dffbbaf63861

Of course, she didn’t e420838ab0 intend to suddenly boss 29f6efb97d Jin around just because b36e09bbe2 their positions had changed. That wouldn’t happen.

Candles flickered dimly fbd23c32be in the spacious 0398558a05 room.

Jin, who was 0292c95451 writing steadily, stopped 0cf2e6cd71 her pen. Strangely, she felt 9fe6f727ba uneasy describing the 1a63d70427 Grand Duke’s condition.

She knew the reason for her clouded mind. It was because her heart kept leaning towards the Grand Duke. This feeling was separate from her duty to gather information about him. That was why, even though there was no need, she ended up looking into Margarita’s eyes to confirm whether or not they had slept together.941cff5997485e46
On the first day they arrived, she lost sleep worrying that the two might be sleeping together. Although what she heard from the maids the next day suggested that they hadn’t consummated their marriage, she wanted to confirm it herself. Whether they had made love, and if not, what they had done and what they had talked about.c6c714eaa75fce92

On the night she bef0b12834 stayed over, the Grand 58e869a237 Duke had asked for dba1fa33c9 her name. No matter how great ee8faadc71 a job she had a12d0b1b9a done, there was no ca8406f32b need for him to 0b46f572d1 know her name. And the b6067a5ed4 Grand Duke b2951ee70f had definitely f3d0b2f2f8 looked at 3b3372d49a her with 61d56d9436 a peculiar 892544501d gaze several 54a087a125 times.

Jin quickly went to the dressing table, looked in the mirror, and combed her hair. Then, she opened a drawer and took out a dye made by mixing goat’s milk and red onion, and applied it. A beautiful woman with black hair, white skin, and red lips smiled back at her from the mirror.a15abce53a7d46c2

As if he didn’t care about her question, he simply said what he had to say. The swift dismissal shattered her vague expectations. Before the arrogant man’s gaze, Jin felt like a mere tool, and it made her uncomfortable. It was a ridiculous thought. Hadn’t she always been used like this by those in high positions?2ca35eb85d21870a
Jin stalled df4d56d8ad for a 14891533c4 moment, trying 780409c5a5 to think f361f5356c of a e84dc84eeb way to f5f62093a2 continue the 3c0d4d6192 conversation.

This was a gamble. She was confident in her medicine-making skills, but she couldn’t be sure that this action would yield good results.
