Capítulo 278: 278: Time to decide

"Y-You are back already, Sui? Darn, I lost the bet this time as well. The Grand Duke is too good at reading the room."

The aide laughed nervously, and Sui could tell it was a fake laugh.

She turned toward the Grand Duke to see what it was all about, but that man could have been more helpful.

A letter in his hand had a beautifully crafted seal on it. 

"Oh, Sui, you are back. Come inside. If you keep the door open for too long, you will let all the warm air inside the room."

Sui sighed at the familiar complaint, and she finally entered the room.

More than a few letters were scattered all over the table, but the only one interesting enough to seek her attention was the one in the Grand Duke's hands.

Something about that letter attracted Sui's attention.

"Hey! Are you not going to ask me what the bet was about? You just caused me to lose it, you know."
