"My lord, are you going to marry the young duchess for real?" Cornelius asked.Duke Alexander was sitting in his chair in his office as always, while the butler, Cornelius, was giving him updates."I wanted to marry her in the first place. I just placed the contract so she would annul her engagement to marry me. But who knew she was planning on annulling her engagement in the first place?" Alexander smirked. "She is the only one I can think of marrying. Unlike other noblewomen, the young duchess is a truly admirable person, I have to admit. Even I was forced to admire her.""I heard a lot about the young duchess though I have not seen her myself," Cornelius said. "She holds a great amount of power in the political world despite her age. It will help you.""Isn't that why I am marrying her?""But what I don't understand is, when did the lord see the young duchess before?""I haven't before," Alexander said. "I just heard about her.

Duke Alexander eyed Alessandra suspiciously who just beamed innocently at him. But it did not fool him. Since the moment he met her, he had known the manipulative soul lay behind her innocent smile. “The duke and duchess of Terrence duchy were murdered,” Alexander said with a smile. “Since the young duchess is comparing the two incidents, I am even more curious as to what happened to the Maximillan duchess and her family.” “Humans are like that after all.
