"What did you come here for?" caroline asked to look at the two men with panicked faces. The two men looked at Caroline with teary eyes.

Caroline stopped her footsteps right near the two men. "What do you need to do coming here? if there's nothing to talk about. Sorry I don't have much time."

"I'm sorry Caroline's dad." The Baron Knight looked down, embarrassed to see Caroline. All the mistakes in his past made his daughter suffer.

"I don't have a taste for it and I don't have time. O, yes, Your Highness Duke Elios because you have taken care of me. I should have appreciated you too. In three days I will have my engagement and in three days I will be married. Hopefully Uncle, Duke isn't busy. So it can come."

Duke Elios held tightness in his chest, his lungs as if stopping. His heart was very sick and painful. He did not expect, Caroline said it so casually. Instantly his body was weak.

"Your Majesty the Duke." The Baron Knight held Duke Elios' arm that was about to fall to the floor.

Caroline turned her face away, she expected, Uncle, the Duke will put on a helpless weak face.

"Caroline decided well, you can't marry her."

"Then should I marry Uncle?" cut Caroline with a pressing tone.

"Caroline," Duke Elios closed his eyes, he stepped forward and grabbed Caroline by the hand. "Caroline Uncle please, don't go."

"Sorry Your Highness the Duke, Caroline my wife please take care of the attitude." Said a man releasing the hand of Duke Elios who grasped both hands of Caroline.

Duke Elios looked up at his face. Without a second thought he threw his punch into Viscount Luis' cheek until he fell to the floor.

"Uncle," cried Caroline to see Viscount Luis' cheeks turn blue and fresh blood on her lips.

"I don't like Ariana, I want Caroline."

"It's too late Uncle, the heart that Uncle has broken won't be what it was." Caroline said she no longer loved Duke Elios. Caroline helped Viscount Luis stand up.

"I'm sorry Caroline, with deep regret I'm sorry. But please remember, I won't approve of your relationship." Said Duke Elios with teary eyes and clenched his hands. He left with a million wounds that would torment him for life.

This is all because of you Ariana, if only you didn't make that crazy idea. Caroline's not leaving. You'll know how much I love you, Caroline. And you will feel what I feel for the inner Ariana of Duke Elios.

"Caroline, I'm sorry."

"From time I always tried to find a way to forgive you Dad. But this time, Dad disappointed me again. Then how long will you let me down again and again?"

"Caroline,"

"For the time, please understand Dad. Caroline needs some time to calm down." Caroline smiled softly. He was already tired of fighting with the Baron Knight. At least before his departure, he spoke well with her. He did not want to feel guilty. Enough is enough, he is tired. He didn't want to make Baron Knight make a choice between himself and Ariana.

"Caroline can I come with you. Take it easy, I'll leave it to Uncle Ariana. I don't need that title, I want a simple life with you. I'm sorry I said something rude."

"Father Caroline please, just this once. Let Caroline go in your shadows." Caroline smiled and looked down respectfully.

The Baron Knight pecked, his tears rushing down. She turned around and hugged Caroline from behind. If she can't stop Caroline from leaving, she feels she doesn't have time for herself in Caroline's heart.

"May Dad visit you every day."

"No need for Dad." Caroline turned her body, "Don't cry, I must be sad to see Dad cry. Caroline's happy with Dad's apology." Caroline hugged the Baron Knight and let go. Honestly, his heart is heavy, but maybe this is the best option for everyone. Let go of the past and move forward for the future.
