章 1019: I'm Having Fun, You Don't Have To Worry About Me

"Are- are you sure?" Rune asked haltingly. He stared at Rose and realized that her eyes were gleaming with tears. The incident today must have shaken her because Rose was not ready. 

She came to Bacilia because she needed to keep up an appearance in front of the media, the Bacilian upper-classes, and of course, Leon.

Rose would show everyone that she and Leon were on good terms, and she had a boyfriend that she loved. Her life was good. Then, she would say goodbye to her old life and started somewhere new.

Rune came with her because he was in love with Rose and would do anything to help her. However, no matter how much he wanted to kiss Rose, he didn't want to take advantage of the poor girl.

"Yes, I am sure. We have to look natural," Rose insisted. "This is a very critical period for our family, and the royal family too. I can't let any scandal destroy my family or Leon's reputation."
