“Oh, Your Highness?”
Chedron, the butler of the Grand Duchy of Tertius, was surprised to see Leon suddenly rushing in without notice. As a matter of fact, Chedron was very embarrassed because the Lady had disappeared.
Since she disappeared, he had tried to search everywhere in his own way, but so far, everything had been in vain.
Leon looked at him with a terrifying expression and headed straight to his room on the second floor.
I’m dead.
Sweat flowed down Chedron’s spine when he received his gaze. He didn’t say a word, but he knew why. As Leon walked with tremendous momentum, Chedron couldn’t keep up and hardened on the spot.
As he walked fast through the hallway, he heard the sound of women talking somewhere.
Leon instinctively lowered the sound of footsteps and slowly moved to a place from where the sound could be heard from.
Looking through the finely opened door, the maids were gathering in twos and threes and chatting. Leon leaned against the wall next to the door and listened to their conversation.
“She ran away?”
“That’s right… I heard her clearly say to herself that she would run away when the Grand Duke wasn’t there.”
The maid claimed that Dana ran away, saying that she was certain, being a maid with experience. The other maids nodded but asked more questions.
“Hey, Terra, you couldn’t even go there anymore because you fought with her last time. How did you hear that?”
“Oh, hmm… Last time, she murmured that she wanted to run away from the castle while taking a walk… That’s what I heard!”
“Ahh”
Like this.
“Oh, my. Who was there?”
“You go out!”
One of the maids, surprised by the sound of the door closing, carefully opened the door. She only put her head out and looked left and right, but there was no one.
“What was it? Was it the wind?”
Leon clenched his fists tightly. He opened Dana’s door roughly and entered.
The empty room greeted him, and he trudged into the room even though he knew Dana was not there.
There was no one, but the room was well organized.
Why on earth?
He started like a moth drawn by lust, but after that, he thought his heart was also connected. Her attitude towards him, her eyes that looked pitifully at him asking not to abandon her, her voice saying she wanted to be around him because she liked him, and his own heart infested with it.
Was it all an illusion?
But when he heard she had disappeared of her own volition, he felt an unfamiliar pain. Such a vivid sense of loss that the ache gradually suffocated him as if someone was squeezing his heart.
You thought I’d let you go like this.
Even if he broke down by her side, he had no intention of letting her go. A blue flame swelled in his stuffy chest.
The emotion following the pain was surprisingly anger. Already, she was an object of obsession.
If she ran away, he would catch her.
“Did she regain her memory?”
There was a possibility of that. The possibility that she returned to her place after regaining her memory.
Of course, Leon didn’t want to let go now, even if she did. If he was next to her, he was going to do everything she wanted.
But what if she begged him to let her go? He could hold and hug her and make her faint from exhaustion.
Then, if she ran away again, he would never let her go even if he had to cut off her legs or break her.
It’s crazy.
The first feeling of loss ignited Leon’s obsession.
Leon got up from his seat and walked out of the room. Then he headed straight to the office.
When he opened the office door, an unexpected person was inside.
As if he didn’t know that the person inside would be here now, he looked a little stiff, but not as much as Leon.
“You came earlier than I thought, Leon.”
“What’s wrong?”
“I came here after hearing that Dana Deniz was gone.”
Leon frowned a little as he approached his desk. Leon didn’t understand why Owen was so obsessed with Dana Deniz and his marriage.
Even if he asked Owen, he’d just say he had to keep his old promise.
“You must be sorry.”
“No, I just saw your desk and it says Miss Deniz is back.”
It was not good news for Leon. He read the letter on the desk with a firm look. As Owen said, Dana Deniz returned, and there was a phrase saying that she would come anytime for a deal if the Grand Duke gave her a sign.
“Even so…”
“Ah, I wrote down a reply that I’d meet her.”
Leon looked at Owen with an absurd look.
“Father.”
“I was going to meet her before you came, but since you came, I don’t have to.”
“I would’ve told you. I’m not interested in that marriage.”
Owen continued his story without pretending to listen to Leon.
“Your interest is not very important. Who is born a noble and gets married as they want? If you inherit the castle Tertius, you must fulfill your duty.”
“Why is that duty the merchant’s daughter?”
“Deniz is not just a merchant. And you’ve seen her when you were young. You’ll like her when you see her again.”
He couldn’t communicate at all. Leon was a Grand Duke outside, and he was higher than Owen, but the head of Tertius Castle was Owen.
He did not return to the castle, and he left the whole thing to Leon, who became Grand Duke afterward, but Owen could not be ignored.
“Is it because of her?”
As if he had been beaten by a sudden remark, Leon looked at Owen with his eyes raised silently.
“I also heard it when I came. Are you going to make a mistake because of your sleeping partner? Furthermore, she left here on her own.”
“It’s just… She’s not that kind of person.”
Owen and Leon were both surprised by what he said in tears. Leon didn’t know he would say that on his own, and Owen seemed quite surprised that Leon had such a partner.
