章節 17: Going For A Walk

Selma Payne's POV:

"There will be guests coming in a while." My father told me at dinner, and I simply nodded without paying much attention. I'd accompanied them to meet many people during this time.

However, I almost choked on the food when I saw Aldrich and another strange tall man come in If I didn't quickly drink a glass of water, I would have become the first princess to choke to death.

The man beside Aldrich should be his father, Duke Frank because he looked very similar to Aldrich and was a gentleman with good manners. However, the atmosphere now made me feel that something was wrong. No one spoke. It was so strange. I didn't dare to eat anymore and pushed the food aside. Aldrich didn't tease me today. Instead, he stood solemnly and silently beside his father.
