Terrun let Allen wait for about 30 minutes before heading to the reception room.
He needed to remind him that he wasn’t someone easily accessible.
Upon Terrun’s entrance, Allen, dressed in a white suit, stood up.
His poor past was nowhere to be seen now. A high-quality suit, well-groomed hair, and a handsome face – he looked perfect on the outside.
“I greet you, Duke Kurtua.”
Allen greeted with the etiquette of a noble, without any discrepancy.
“Please, have a seat.”
Terrun didn’t show any displeasure. Instead, he served Allen the finest tea produced in Lubeck.
“I came to thank you for holding my fiancée’s funeral and also have another matter to discuss.”
“What matter?”
Terrun was direct. Sitting down to discuss global politics with Allen was not on the agenda.
Having spent his life on battlefields, Terrun had a keen intuition about people. He could feel whether someone could get close to him or not. Allen was obviously the latter.
“Um, I’d like to meet Miss Grace Bizak personally. Of course, I need your permission first.”
“I see.”
Allen looked puzzled when Terrun didn’t ask further. Normally, a fiancé would be furious at such a request.
“Where are you staying, Mr. McDowell?”
“I’m at the Levon Hotel. If it’s alright, I’d like to have lunch at the hotel restaurant with Miss Bizak on the 7th.”
“Lunch on the 7th, there are no other engagements, so it should be fine. I’ll speak to Grace.”
“Tha… thank you, Your Grace.”
Allen was surprised by Terrun’s unexpectedly amicable response. It was a stark contrast to the atmosphere during the funeral, making him wonder if the rumors were true.
‘They say the relationship between Lady Grace and the Duke isn’t good.’
But that wasn’t all. There were also rampant rumors that Terrun had developed a mental illness due to the long wars, leading him to despise women. Therefore, he couldn’t recognize a pearl even when it was in his hand.
“Mr. McDowell, I will ensure Grace is sent to the Levon Hotel Restaurant by noon on the 7th.”
“I express my gratitude for your deep consideration, Duke.”
Allen bowed respectfully to Terrun.
Leah and Pauline went out to the city and then headed to a park. They had intended to look for books on business management at the bookstore, but there were too many choices, and they couldn’t decide.
To think she was planning to pursue revenge against Allen without even being able to choose a book.
Leah, greatly disappointed that day, still hadn’t stopped blaming herself.
“Aren’t you hot, Miss?”
Pauline quickly took out a fan and handed it to Leah. Despite wearing a parasol, the August sun was intensely strong.
“Did we come to the park when it’s too hot?”
“It seems so.”
“Since we’re here, let’s take a walk around once and go back.”
“Alright, Miss.”
That’s when it happened. A woman with disheveled red hair ran up to them and suddenly grabbed Leah’s hand.
“Sister, you’re pretty. Like a flower.”
The woman was clearly mentally unstable. She seemed to be about nineteen or twenty years old.
“But sister, there are two souls inside you?”
Leah was so shocked by the woman’s words that she couldn’t move.
‘How did she know?’
The strange woman, laughing sillily with her hair in a mess, had seen right through Leah.
“Miss, it’s hot today, so there are many people who are not in their right mind.”
Pauline pulled Leah aside, suggesting they avoid the woman and leave.
But Leah noticed something very unique.
The colorful lace vest knitted with thread that the woman wore was a splendid handmade product.
It was good enough to be supplied to the court, and the thread was not cheap.
“Pauline, there must be someone with her nearby. Let’s find them before we go.”
“Don’t engage with her. She’s not in a good state.”
Despite Pauline’s protest, Leah approached the woman.
“Did you come here alone?”
“No, I came with my grandpa.”
The woman’s speech was very slurred.
“What’s your name?”
“Chenner. I’m fourteen.”
Leaving her in the park didn’t seem right.
Leah and Pauline walked around the park with Chenner. Then they came across an elderly man wearing similar clothes, and Chenner ran towards him.
“Grandpa!”
“Oh my, you silly girl, where have you been?”
“The sisters helped me find you.”
“Thank goodness. I thought you might have jumped into that pond or something.”
“I want to live with these sisters from now on.”
Everyone was surprised at Chenner’s words. But Leah found the old man’s reaction intriguing.
Despite calling her ‘silly’, he was sensitive to Chenner’s words. And Leah had another question.
“Grandpa, about the vest Chenner is wearing. Who knitted it?”
Leah approached the old man politely. He, too, was wearing a similar vest, but in a different color.
“She knitted it. Her mind may be lacking, but her skills with her hands are exceptional.”
Leah looked at Chenner with awe, as if she had discovered a precious gem. Sometimes a person can be a jewel.
When the male lead is punished by carrying the female lead’s child and having periods like a woman
“I’ve given birth to two children for you, yet you still think about him.
Was I nothing but his substitute to you from beginning to end?”
