Chapter 18: The Hateful Rhett

Rhett had been coming frequently during the wedding preparations. Irene found that although Rhett had a gentle appearance, there was a toughness in his bones.

When Rhett appeared in front of her with a set of riding clothes, Irene was looking at the topographic maps of the two countries, Murcia and Celt. She realized that although Murcia was vast, the terrain was flat. If they really fought with Croce, they might not be able to resist at all.

Rhett unfolded the riding clothes and stuffed them into Irene's arms. "Go and try it out. I'll bring you to go riding today."

Irene liked to be quiet. Moreover, she was in the mood to analyze the terrain. Her expression was cold. "I don't want to go."

Rhett acted as if he did not hear her rejection. He pushed Irene toward the cloakroom. "Go and change."

Irene turned around and wanted to reject him again, but Rhett said, "Don't tell me you want me to go in and help you change. Hurry up and go."
