Chapitre 558: A Lesson for Kit Blue

Aleksis also looked stunned. She never knew how Alaric had been doing all this time. As she didn't really follow the news outside, this had been the first time she heard about how Kit was supposed to be engaged to her husband. She turned to Alaric and asked for an explanation.

"Is what she said true?" Aleksis asked in amazement, "Are you engaged to her?"

Alaric shook his head. "Ned and her father have an agreement that they will marry their children if they have a son and daughter. She is just trying to find an opportunity to get a powerful man to become her husband. I never gave her the hope she was claiming."

"Oh ..." Aleksis looked at Kit who was now reduced to tears. "Poor her ..."

"She doesn't deserve your pity," Alaric grumbled. He put his arm around Aleksis' waist and pulled her towards the castle. "Don't give her an inch, she would ask for a mile."
