I Decline the Ex-Boyfriend of the Regretful Male Lead (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 34
“You’re making such nonsense outright.”
A sneer slipped from Hertian’s lips.
“Well, Mother recovered quickly, and it wasn’t a lethal poison. It must’ve been some toxic weed accidentally mixed into the tea leaves.”
So that’s how he covered up the incident.
Even if I had collapsed, he probably would’ve swept the matter under the rug the same way.
When we fell silent, Serdis gave a faint smile, as if he’d won this wordplay game—though I simply didn’t feel like responding to his nonsense anymore.
Dinner was no different.
I let Serdis’s chatter go in one ear and out the other.
He spoke nonstop, though someone might’ve reasonably called him out for his rudeness.
Hertian, on the other hand, looked more exhausted.
He couldn’t easily leave the table, burdened with hosting a guest who hardly acted like one. Perhaps he stayed seated out of worry that Serdis might harass me. So, once I’d quietly finished my cup of tea, I rose from my seat.
“It’s grown late. I’ll retire now—please rest comfortably in the room the butler prepared for you.”
As I left the drawing room and climbed the stairs, I heard footsteps following behind me.
Soon, hurried steps caught up and stopped me.
“I’m sorry, Your Grace the Duchess.”
