章 327: Chapter -327

Lucien doesn't even remember how long she had been staring at him but this time, she didn't move her gaze away. There were questions she wanted to ask but none came out from her lips.

"Sometimes, I can't read your mind when you look like you've lots of questions in your expression." He leans forward. "But some other times, your expression gives away what you are thinking about."

Lucien quickly moved her attention away. "Isn't it normal for any wife to behave in this manner if their husband were suddenly going to war?"
