Chapitre 43: 43. Villainess

Ellie entered the dining room and found only a few servants standing behind the large dining table.

She then asked one of the servants, "Where is the Grand Duke?"

"My Lord is out in the morning, Madam."

Hearing that, Ellie nodded and sat alone at the large dining table.

She was used to eating alone and cooking for herself, enjoying simple meals while watching Netflix.

However, she had never felt lonely in her solitary life.

But now, as she sat alone at the large dining table and saw the servants serving luxurious dishes, far more than she could consume alone, for the first time in Ellie's life, loneliness pierced her heart.

'No wonder Cassius always eats in his study.'

Ellie touched her chest, furrowing her brow at this discomfort.

She shook her head, trying to push away thoughts she deemed useless.

As she was about to take a spoonful, Cassius entered the dining room, breathing heavily as if he had been running.
