Bab 59: Chapter 59

Darian crossed his arms behind him, a regal air about him. "Excuse us, Ladies."

Fiona and Ariana nodded and stepped out, leaving Althea alone with Darian. A single flower dropped beside her bed as Darian took a seat opposite her. Althea bit her lips nervously, wondering if he had overheard their conversation.

Althea, though surprised, maintained her composure and chuckled nervously. "Going for a walk. We were just talking about going for a walk."

Darian squinted his eyes, studying her. "A walk? At this hour?"

Althea shrugged, trying to appear nonchalant. "Late-night stroll, you know. Clears the mind."
