章節 108: You look savoury today

Why are they not here yet? 

Duke Balthier Sanguine glances at the sky. He folds his arms, creasing his brows. It's been two hours since he sent his attendant to them. What are they doing? The duke taps his foot on the ground impatiently. It's the sixth hour of the day already. The guests are here. But Eli and his human aren't here yet.

Among his thirteen children, only ten of them are seated around the table in the garden along with his wives and the guests. Ark and Ephraim will arrive tomorrow. Eli is with his human in the mansion. Even Eli's fiancee is here. 

Duke Balthier glances at Carmine Highmore who is sitting diagonally across him. His second wife is chatting with her. Anyone can see that Carmine has no interest in chatting with Judith. Judith's lowly origin must have been a bother to the idiotic girl.
