Chương 359: Karenina's Request

"This is more than enough," Nicholas said. he added with a smile, "Thank you."

"So what is your purpose in coming here, Your Majesty?" asked Viscount Verhoven in an annoyed tone.

"I…." Nicholas paused his sentence and then looked at Karenina for a moment before turning back to Viscount Verhovent. He tried to word the purpose of his visit carefully. No one liked to hear bad news. He spoke softly. "I want to break off my engagement to Karenina."

There was a feeling of relief, filling his chest after he finally said the thing he should have said five years ago. He felt bad about it but he knew this was the right thing to do.

Hearing Nicholas' words, Viscount Verhovent immediately stood up with an angry face. She wanted to kick Nicholas out of the residence but Eloise who was currently playing the role of Karenina immediately stood up and tried to calm Viscount Verhovent down.

"Father, calm down. I beg you," said Karenina softly.
