Bab 211: Who are you?

Walking hastily in a quiet, dimly lit corridor, Joanna reiterated her wish for nothing bad to happen to her father.

She did not know why her father suddenly collapsed while he looked utterly fit before she headed to the powder room.

For the occurrence that had never happened before, as her father had always been in good shape so far, Joanna could only think that her father might be too exhausted, consumed by all the never-ending activities that demanded his role and responsibility as a duke.

Deviated to the realization that time had eroded her father's vitality as he was not young anymore, Joanna felt sorrow in her heart. Would her father be fine if she left him to live a life with her husband? That question made her consider asking for Canillas' understanding to let her stay in Terra until her brother finished his study.
