Chapter 283: Suspiciously Beautiful

After finishing the discussion regarding the alliance marriage, Orius went home. He noticed that his wife was already asleep as it was pretty late now. However, rather than sleeping, he went to his working chamber as he wasn't sleepy at all.

The Duke looked through some files and read the draft for the training schedule of the soldiers which Zire made. However, it wasn't long before his wife showed up at the door to his working chamber.

"It's late," Valerie pointed out. "Why are you still working?"

"I'm not sleepy at all," Orius replied as he shifted his gaze to his wife. "Why did you get up? You should get some sleep."

Still standing near the door, the Duchess stared at her husband. "I don't feel like sleeping while you still work here. It's not like you don't need a rest."
