Capítulo 42: Reputation

[Her eyes had been different since we got engaged. And most especially when she was brought here and we got married. It didn't shine as brightly as before anymore. I have never even heard her laugh once even when speaking with her maid from Lobelius.]

Arabella instantly felt guilty but how could she just turn to look at him again after avoiding his eyes?

She could feel that he was still staring at her so intensely too.

[When I met her as Elmir, she was, all smiles to me. It hurt to hear her utter someone else's name while she spoke to me, but she was so kind and attentive to me back then. And so I didn't even care anymore that I was in someone else's appearance and just wanted to be close to her. Did she like Elmir's appearance much more than mine? Back then she even gave me her hairpin and bracelet.]
