บท 24: Mysterious Letters

One of Irene's hands was firmly held by Ronald.

The other hand was always hidden in the sleeve, clutching a letter tightly.

The person who had bumped into her just now had stuffed it into her hand.

Irene had pretended to be interested in choosing cat food along the way, but her heart had already fallen on that letter.

Irene's imagination ran wild all the way until she returned to the manor. She pulled her hand out of Ronald's hand and said, "You go back first. I want to walk alone."
