"Sylvaine..." Seymour sighed and smiled at her helplessly. "I understand, dear. I get it. Since you have already made up your mind on this matter, I will not be a hindrance to your relationship. But just be careful and alert."
Irene beamed at the old Duke and rushed forward to hug him. But stopped short when she realized the era she was in. However, realizing her intentions, the old Duke himself stretched out his hands, allowing her to hug him and Irene did not hesitate anymore.
"Thank you, Father." She sighed and closed her eyes while the old man patted her back soothingly.
Kieran just watched the father and the daughter with a doting smile on his face, enjoying his beloved's ecstatic face. Nothing was more satisfying and fulfilling than to see her joyous and smiling. Seeing her living her life with all smiles and no worries gave him a great sense of achievement and relief.
