Chapter 69

“My lady, the Duke is looking for you.”

 

Just as I was about to get ready early for seeing off my husband, the butler appeared and told me that my father-in-law wanted to see me.

 

What was wrong with my mean father-in-law wanting to meet me today?

 

He hadn’t said anything to me since the issue of me running away was resolved.

 

“Oh, Young Lady.”

 

Duke Omerta, the twisted man, just like his son, greeted me in the stable.

 

Giving a glance to his nice outfit, I think he was about to go out.

 

“Were you looking for me, Father? Where are you going?”

 

“I have a court meeting, and the weather is so nice that I wanted to ride a horse after a long time.”

 

Right.

 

I glanced at the grey stallion which the stableman was saddling.

 

A magnificent muscular stallion with black and grey fur stared at me.

 

Damn it.

 

“That’s really nice.”

 

“Do you like horseback riding? I’m sure you’ve attended a lot of hunting events in Romagna, so I’m probably no match for your skills.”

 

“Not necessarily. A hunting festival doesn’t mean you’re really on the hunt.”

 

Then there was a moment of silence.

 

I was waiting nervously with a smile as innocent as ever, while the Duke seemed indifferent and clueless, adjusting his leather gloves.

 

What is it, what do you want to say?…!

 

“My son handed over the key to the jewelry warehouse to you. Or so I heard.”

 

Oh, so that’s why. Well, from his point of view, I am not trustworthy.

 

But it was too much to ask me to return it.

 

I didn’t want to get involved in this fight.

 

“Yes, what did he say when he gave it to you?”

 

‘You can use it however you want.’

I couldn’t say that, so I had to come up with something else.

 

“That he trusts me to take good care of it…”

 

“Hmm, that doesn’t sound like him.”

 

What does he sound like then? You both are so twisted.

 

The Duke sent away the stableman and other servants and finally stared at me with a light sigh.

 

There was a complex expression in his red eyes, same as his children.
