Chapter 76: Marry His Majesty

Elias could feel an insult at the tip of his tongue. But then his hands moved on their own. He realized Adeline was beginning to cut the medium-rare steak again. Whether she was intentionally distracting him or not, he allowed her to continue cutting, but this time, he removed his hands.

He watched intently as she brought the food to her mouth and chewed. He watched as she swallowed, then repeated the motion of cutting the steak.

"Do you like steaks?" Elias asked.

"It's good," Adeline vaguely said. She ate half of the wagyu beef before setting her fork and knife down. 

"Don't you have a Kingdom to rule?" Lydia bit out towards Elias. She didn't like having her time with Adeline interrupted. It happened twice now. The next time it happened, she might as well kidnap Adeline out of the palace.
