There were many things Rafael couldn't say, so he took his leave.

Carissa pondered for a long time. Some things seemed to make sense now, but there were still parts she couldn't quite grasp.

Frederick cautioned, "It's enough that we know this in our hearts. Don't let it slip out."

"Of course, such things can't be spoken of carelessly. But His Highness's feelings for our mistress-she doesn't know at all. Even when he proposed marriage, the late madam didn't allow her to be told." Frederick's expression darkened. "At that time, the late madam was frightened.

Barrett was the only one brave enough to kneel before the late madam and promise never to take a concubine. The late madam was deceived in a moment of weakness." "Okay, that's enough," Frederick urged. "Bring some food to our young lord. Seeing how
