Chapter 52: Do you love me, Sam?

I pursed my lips as Sam put me down on the edge of the bed.

"I'll prepare your bath." He said, standing up as he headed to prepare my bath.

I watched his back, noticing his change of demeanor. What did I miss between the lines?

Usually, Sam was arrogant and full of life. He had hurried back here to claim me as his.

However, after his brief argument with Fabian, he just changed completely. It was as if he had a lot of things in his mind, weighing him down currently.

Fabian used to tell me stories about the duke. In every tale of the duke, I had often noticed Fabian's adoration and respect towards the duke.

Yet he had stood up to him. What's more shocking was Sam conceded.

Sam seemed to be the type of person who wouldn't concede to anyone. But he did.

Was it because of me? If I understood them correctly, Sam admitted Fabian said and courageously stood up to him for my well-being.

Why? What am I missing?
