Chương 335: Midnight theatre

Marianne pov contd.

He had spent so much money, just for watching a show. If that was not enough to shock me, his next words were enough to do that.

"Are you planning to chip in money?" Cassius asked me, making me glare at him further. 

"I don't think I could afford even one percent out of it to include, your highness," I replied back, as a forced smile formed on my lips. With the options of my working as a businesswoman being denied out and also i was not the archduchess anymore, i wondered if i could myself make so much money again. 

"Don't look so gloomy, What is mine is yours now. You don't have to hesitate if you need or want to buy something, Marianne," in the past i would have been happy about it but not now, i wanted to be more independent now. I  still wished I would earn my own money, but depending on a man for money was not something I wanted to do.
