Chương 117: Scented candles

As we returned to our room, I opened the door and immediately noticed the puzzled expression on Violet's face. I had asked a servant to put scented candles all over our room to allow us to forget the unpleasant stench better, so she was clearly confused to see how our room turned out as such. She was wondering if we'd entered the wrong room.

I smiled approvingly at the candles and the scent that roamed in the air, glancing expectantly at her to hear her express her gratitude to me for being such a considerate man. Even though I had no prior experience with relationships, I knew how to conduct myself in a gentlemanly manner.

I leaned my body against the door, folding my arms over my chest as I waited for her reaction. She looked around our room, seeing the candles everywhere. Next to our bed, at the table, at the windowsill, in the bathroom, there was not a place that was not lit with a candle.
