Chapter 34: Reason?

Chapter 34: Reason?

Inside a massive hall which by furniture and decoration seemed to be a reception area, sat a couple consisting of a dashing man and a beautiful woman.

Marvelous chandelier along with imported foreign furnishings complimented the room's luxury. And along with the fact that there were around a dozen guards stationed in the hall, it became obvious that the place belonged to a high noble.

The couple sitting as a guest on the comfortable sofa had an evident anxious expression spreaded on their faces.

The female who had curly pink hair braided elegantly sat while holding her husband's hand while trying to suppress her nervousness.

The man with ashy gray hair had more of a dignified front as he awaited the person they came to meet. However, from the inside, the man was equally uneasy as well.

Soon a maid who guided them to this extravagant reception hall approached the couple.

"Lord Alfred. The Duchess is arriving shortly."N0v3lTr0ve served as the original host for this chapter's release on N0v3l--B1n.

Hearing the maid's words, both of them glanced at each other before they stood up, erasing all their previous emotions and putting up a smile as they saw the Duchess descending the stairs.

The rumors that Duchess Valarie Albeck being the most beautiful woman born in this century seemed to be correct anytime someone witnessed her.

Long blond hair falling lazily draped over her shoulder, gave a sensual charm to her overall figure. Her sharp blue eyes were equally dangerous as she nonchalantly stared at the guest.

The perfect hourglass figure was wrapped inside a one-piece gold and red dress which had a slit on the left side, exposing her meaty and well-sculpted thigh.

Alfred was having a hard time keeping his eyes steady at Duchess' face since he knew misbehaving would lead to an inevitable scenario.

"Long live the Duchess."

"Please sit down."

The lady didn't bother with the greetings and sat opposite the guests as she lapped her left leg over the other, highlighting a dangerous sight.

The duo glanced once again at each other before they wordlessly consented and sat back in their seats.

Suddenly, a small wooden box appeared in the Duchess' hand before she passed it to the maid standing behind her.

The maid took the box and after walking to the other side, she handed it to Alfred.

Perplexed, the couple looked at the Duchess for an answer but the latter had no intention to talk about the content inside the box.

Rather, the blond woman preferred to tell something regarding the person to whom Alfred had to delegate that box.

"Hand it to Laila only after assuring that she still has her mark or not. If she indeed has been cheating on my son, you better burn that box to save her from any further trouble."

The duo felt a shiver running down their spines upon hearing the warning which signified that there was no room for any further questions.

With a nod, both of them got up and bid their farewell before hastily walking out of the mansion.

Being left alone, Valarie rested her head on the edge of the sofa as she stared at the chandelier hanging over her head.

The previous frown from her face slowly faded as she thought of the person she adores dearly.

Anything in her life can be cured with just a single memory of her son. And now he was returning to his home in a few days

He was returning to his mother after so long~
