Kapitel 94: Marriage Of Convenience

"What?!" Sophie's eyes widened and she looked up at the duke to see if he was joking but even with the mask still on his face and covering him, she could see that Duke Romanov was serious. 

Leland expected such a surprise to come from her. "The proposal I am presenting you is a proposal for marriage, Miss Hansley. The two of us would both benefit if this were to happen."

She placed a hand on her chest. "But I am already married."

A sad smile formed on Leland's lips as the memory of Sophie in Hauntingen with her husband appeared in his mind. The fact that Sophie was also looking for her wedding ring was a signifier of her relationship with Duke Romanov as well.

So Leland's answer was this as he looked her in the eye.
