"I missed, Your Majesty. I wanted to see you the other day. But I heard you were busy, so I waited for you to visit instead," Dimo acted all cute.
Seeing him like this made Arabella smile.
Yes, this was the kind of Dimo she wanted to see.
The cuteness, childishness, and playfulness at his age suited him.
Seeing him with expressions like these was such a treat. Especially when she recalls how barely alive his eyes were in the past.
No, that wasn't right. In their past life, by the time Arabella knew Dimo, his eyes were dead. Dimo only lived for his revenge.
Arabella only saw Dimo's eyes change a bit after he had exacted his revenge. There was relief in his eyes. But now that she thought about it, he still didn't look happy or anything. His eyes were still dead.
Rather, he looked like he was ready to die anytime after he had his revenge and had the Olivier duchy entrusted to someone he could trust.
