There are questions that cannot be ignored. They linger in the air, seep into one’s thoughts, and make the heart beat faster. Some choose to address them immediately; others put them off. But sooner or later, the moment comes when avoiding them is no longer an option.The rest of the dinner passed in silence, interrupted only by the clinking of silverware against porcelain. Isabella, sitting across from Damian, could feel the tension in the air grow almost tangible. He looked tired, with a faint shadow of irritation on his face, which only heightened her desire not to disturb him.He slowly brought the glass to his lips, absentmindedly studying his reflection in the silver plate, and seemed ready to tear apart anyone who dared to break the silence.Isabella remained silent too. She wasn’t a coward, but her ability to read people told her this wasn’t the day to test the Duke’s patience.The servants, bent over the trays, watched the pair with interest, hoping to catch a spark of drama.

Sometimes, a single word is enough to erase the torment of waiting. Sometimes, a single gesture is enough to restore lost confidence.Isabella poured tea into two plain cups and placed them on the dining table. The rough wooden surface, cracked with age, did not match the graceful movements of her hands. Opposite her, idly twirling an aluminum spoon between his fingers, sat Damian.“Are you sure you want to talk here?” he asked, letting his gaze sweep over the tiny kitchen.Isabella nodded.“Jane is asleep,” she replied calmly. “I don’t want to wake her.”Damian silently accepted her decision. He picked up his cup and took a small sip, never taking his eyes off her.Isabella no longer seemed troubled. Four days of anxiety were behind her; now her confidence once again wrapped around her like a sturdy shield.“I looked into your title,” Damian began, setting his cup aside. “The barony of Alliste hasn’t been generating income for a long time.”Isabella gave a restrained smile.“Four yea

The human mind is a remarkable thing. It can find a way out of the most difficult situations, anticipate several moves ahead, and conceal emotions behind a mask of indifference. But sometimes, even the most perceptive people find themselves at a loss. That was exactly what happened to Jack.The Duke of Hartess’s secretary was a composed man, accustomed to handling financial reports, conducting business correspondence, and keeping his master’s schedule in order. But none of his skills could help him now.A child. A member of the Hartess family. Or perhaps an impostor?The thought circled in Jack’s mind, refusing to let him rest. He tried to predict what Damian’s next move would be, but as always, the duke remained unreadable. Sitting in his office, he silently drank bourbon, gazing absently into the darkness beyond the window.“What is he thinking? What decision will he make?”Jack didn’t know. But he knew one thing: when Damian stayed silent for too long, it never led to anything good

Not everyone appreciates having their peace disturbed by an unexpected visitor.Take Damian, for instance—he firmly believed in the saying: “Uninvited guests rarely receive a warm welcome.” A month ago, when his Aunt Marie paid him a visit, pleading for his help in securing a place for her son at the Royal Academy of Arts, he refused, citing the woman’s lack of courtesy. Or just last week, when Thomas—his late brother’s friend—knocked on his door in the dead of night, begging for a loan to pay off his debts to moneylenders, swearing he would return it once he won back his losses. And then, of course, there was poor Lucy Barnes, who had accused the former Duke of assault and demanded a hefty compensation at the very beginning of this entire story.Out of all his uninvited guests, Isabella was the most persistent—and that irritated Damian. But at the same time, it intrigued him.On the first day she appeared at his estate, he had been too drained after dealing with Lucy Barnes and turne
