Lover While The Duke
#8 Sloppy (Tongue Slipping)
"As expected, Lady knows a lot about me."
Yanneta who had just sat down pretended to be surprised. He covered his mouth with both hands then exclaimed.
"Is that so Your Majesty? Sorry for my carelessness." Say Yanneta with a contrived voice.
"Not just anyone calls me that."
"Well.." Yanneta made a small nuisance while folding both hands in her lap. Sitting gracefully and leisurely like nothing happened.
Yes, he threw a provocation. He's upset and angry. His life was plagued by Lionel at will. So today I want to repay him.
"Felt!" The screech.
Lionel really did not like it if there were people who called him the Second Sun. Although many called him that way deep down he did not like it.
The reason he didn't like it was the fact that he was connected to the imperial family upset him. The curse came from them, practically they were enemies. After all Crown Prince Verdian Zagc was nothing compared to him.
So Yanneta throws the dagger at the target.
In Lionel's eyes, Yanneta was like saying "You are the second person in Zagc."
"If you may know what brought you all the way from the peerless mansion of Soveil to this worthless mansion Your Majesty?" Yanneta tilted her head slightly and still smiled.
"His Majesty and I are not close friends, are we?" Add it with a smile getting wider.
The air in the living room suddenly emptied. It's like focusing on two people in the middle. The servants who had lost their lives in the first place turned deathly pale. Who does not know if their Lady threw sharp words at Duke Soveil.
Fabian who was standing behind Lionel put on a flat face. But in his heart, he was shocked. The information he got that Lady Rainhart was a fool was wrong.
The woman he met twice was not the one who lost her. The woman has a different aura. He's somehow very etched. The words that came out of his mouth were also fixed. The tendency of closed people is that they are easily nervous.
But Lady Rainhart wasn't. He can handle it well. One thing was certain, he was not afraid of the Duke.
"Lady's right. We're not close, but if I try to be close to the Lady, can't I?"
Yanneta's pupils were shaking. He still smiled despite being stunned.
If heard by others he would definitely be misunderstood, Lionel's words were like asking him to be friends.
Duke Soveil who is not interested in women suddenly comes to a woman's house and invites her to be close, this is a rumor. Rumors that will shake the social world. Yanneta shuddered in horror. He could imagine the piercing gaze that would be in the can.
"Am I rejected?"
Makjit.
Everyone in the room froze. Even some of the servants had already been sweating coldly.
"I'm not the right person. One day His Majesty will find him." Reply Yanneta indifferently.
No less than two months later, Lionel will meet Rose Attlier and fall in love.
Lionel frowned then chimed in.
"Lady seems to know more."
Yanneta.
"Is that all you want to tell me? If there is nothing else I send His Majesty back because these days I am not well and need rest." Smoothen Yanneta.
Before he had a more severe headache, he wanted to kick Lionel out immediately.
"I'd like to invite Lady to visit the Soveil mansion."
Lionel placed a yellow-gold invitation on the table. The printed emblem of Soveil is very bold.
"I don't think I can come."
"Are you sick?"
Yanneta nodded small.
Lionel smiled instead of answering.
"Sorry for my lack, Your Majesty." Yanneta. As hard as possible to refuse.
"Fabees."
"I'm here, Your Majesty."
Fabian's confused.
Yanneta is no less confused. But he soon realized he was reacting.
"I'm fine, Your Majesty. The Count family doctor has given good care."
"Yet the Lady knows more."
Lionel's response was more shocking.
Yanneta finally came to her senses. He spontaneously answered. Byos Tatiha is often referred to in the Red Rose Tragedy. He is the doctor of the Soveil family. Very competent doctor.
Yanneta racked her brain. His mouth is hard to control. How not, the story of Red Rose Tragedy like its own story. He knows a lot if it concerns Lionel. Remember that his favorite is Lionel Soveil.
He chose silence. John will not open his mouth again. He can talk about himself.
"Lady.'s.." Said Lionel while standing. Tidying up his coat then stepped closer to Yanneta.
Lionel lowered his body then whispered.
"It seems there are too many people for this conversation. I'll send you a horse carriage tomorrow morning. I hope you don't reject me anymore. There's a lot of stuff we need to talk about, right?"
"What?" Yanneta Reflex.
"I invite you to attend the Golden Saturday event. See you tomorrow Lady."
Instead of a hand, Lionel raised a little of Yanneta's hair then kissed her. One of the nobility's etiquette is to kiss a woman's hand as a sign of respect. But Lionel is different.
Pale golden hair somehow tickled her. Ever since Yanneta came he could not take his eyes off. Her movements bewitched. Changes in emotions until the words are interesting. Lionel could barely hold his lips to smile.
He knew she was hiding something from him. Unlike the usual, Lionel was strangely unwilling to force him to say so. Not like he's easily upset. Yanneta's response was refreshing for him. It was as if he wanted to continue teasing her and seeing her reaction.
Delightful.
And this feeling is foreign. Lionel has never felt it. So he's hooked. The main reason for apologizing for his treatment the other day had already disappeared in the wind.
"Fabian, prepare the best horse-drawn carriage for Lady Rainhart tomorrow morning."
"Good sir."

"I'm dead." Yanneta mondar mandir's.
Martha who saw him remained calm.
"Crazy! Crazy one! Crazy one! Lionel must be suspicious again! Argh!" It's in the heart.
"Your mama can get dizzy. Be sitting. Can I help you?"
Yanneta shook her head weakly.
"'Marta can go. I want a break."
"Well miss."
As soon as Marta closed the door, Janet's body decayed to the floor.
Fortunately, Marta was more understanding. He remained silent despite witnessing everything. He also did not talk about Lionel.
"Fraudulent. Sloppy. Yanneta you're careless!" Yanneta.
"How is this?"
Yanneta almost cried. Tomorrow Lionel will definitely interrogate him. First about Hell's dagger, and now it's Byos Tatiha, Duke Soveil's family doctor.
"Tomorrow I can suddenly cancel it, right? I can reason sick anyway. Let's avoid Lionel as much as possible." Yanneta finally regained her composure.
He wakes. Clean the dress then go up to the bed. The blanket is her favorite thing now. Looks like he's got with on the sleep. For some reason in Yanneta's life now she prefers to sleep.
But his wishes did not match expectations. Before sunrise the mansion had been horrendous with the arrival of a super luxurious horse carriage and a company of guard troops.
Janet who was shaken by Marta woke up and was speechless.
If it's like this he can't escape anymore.
Seriate..
