Chương 60: Marketplace

Having decided to change her plans since Paulina wasn't with her, Alicia tried to enjoy the ride. She made sure to look around and take note of the routes they were taking. If she was going to escape from the palace with Paulina later, she needed to at least know the right path to take. 

"Is this the only route to the town?" Alicia asked curiously after some time. 

"When you are leaving the palace, this is the only path you can take to the marketplace," Harold answered, deciding to indulge her.

"Hmm. How often do you leave the palace?" Alicia asked curiously.

Although Harold usually loved to ride in silence, he didn't mind that she was talking to him. He preferred it when she was speaking. At least that way, he could guess what she was thinking. Whenever she was silent, he felt oddly anxious.

"Every day."
