Bab 145: One Shot, Three Targets

I remember seeing a similar one in a European museum a few years back."

Henry just grunted, hiding his emotions but bubbling with irritation on the inside. He was a man who cared a lot about his image, but now he was feeling embarrassed because of this young woman. He was being bombarded with questions from all sides.

The seat was next to Ginevra. His intention was to bring Louis and Ginevra closer.
