Trapped in the Mad Duke's Snare (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 59
Adeline unknowingly cut off her words in a cold, clipped tone.
“There was never even an engagement ceremony, so that makes no sense at all.”
The Duke was telling Adeline that since no engagement ceremony had taken place, there was no fiancée.
“So, you had no intention of an arranged marriage from the start, which means there never was a fiancée? How conveniently comforting.”
Adeline’s pouty gaze and her reddened eyes kept tickling Cassis’s heart.
Adeline, who had always been so eager to run away from him, was now openly showing jealousy over the fiancée he’d never cared about—a match arranged solely by their families. What on earth was he to do with this adorable woman?
Cassis couldn’t suppress the ever-rising corners of his lips.
“Are you laughing right now? Stop laughing.”
Glaring up at him with those sharp, pouty eyes, Adeline instinctively raised her hand, as if finding Cassis utterly infuriating.
‘What’s so funny about this guy?’
Adeline stubbornly grabbed Cassis’s upturned lips and pulled them down.
“Hahaha.”
Cassis doubled over, clutching his stomach as he burst into loud, unrestrained laughter.
Startled, Adeline instantly jerked her hand away from his mouth.
Even to herself, this behavior felt embarrassingly childish, and her cheeks began to burn hotly.

At the Empress’s quiet words, Larie’s face lit up with joy, and she hurriedly fo
So far Larie sounds a bit pathetic. But you never know what some of the characters are capable of. Is she already engaged to the crown prince? Probably not or she would be flaunting it.
Larie entered the Empress’s reception room alongside her.
They are truly disgusting; ignoring her in front of everyone while feigning affection, all in the hope of getting rid of the Empress and her filthy son.
As was customary at celebratory banquets, the attending men began slipping away
How brazen of her—she wanted to be in a higher position, and now she’s shifting the blame for everything that happened onto poor Adeline.

How shameless of her—can’t she see that he is avoiding her and is married?
It wouldn’t surprise me if the crown prince stabs the empress some day.
Wow, I thought these two had made progress. I’m a bit surprised by the Duke’s reaction but he has been ill and chronic illness can affect your thought process.
