Chapter 3

“Today is the day of the prom, you should hurry up and get ready.”

“Ah, the time has already been like that?”

Even if she came in, why would she come in at such an exquisite timing? While getting her make-up surrounded by attendants who would help her prepare for the ball, she kept glancing at the place where the book was hidden. She just needs to read a few more chapters. It’s about finding out that the lady and escort named David are having an affair. She’s really curious.

The curiosity that made her body feel like it would sprout thorns if she didn’t read it right away made Leona feel like her intestines were twisting.

Should I bring a book? No. Anyway, how do you bring obscene language to the ball? No. You can read it secretly in a place where there are no people. What if I still get caught? So you’re going to lose focus the whole prom? It’s better to read it quickly and be cool inside. And honestly, there are only a few pages left. you can read it right away.

The sound of her heart was sweet, like the whispering of a demon. “yes. Let’s take it.”

“I thought I was dying of curiosity. Let’s just read it and go in here.”

As expected, throughout the prom, Leona couldn’t concentrate. So, the affair between the escort knight and the noble lady, she was very curious about whether they caught on to each other, how many times they hit climax in what position, and whether or not they promised to meet again after that. But where is she going to read this? Even when she went there, it was crowded with people, and even when she went there, it was crowded. Leona looked around and carefully took one step at a time and left the banquet hall and the sound of the boisterous ballroom.

As she disappeared, she found a well-appointed garden with a large fountain at its center. Well, she’d love it here. It was a place where well-kept flower beds created a charming and romantic atmosphere. Noticing the lack of foot traffic, she decided to read a book here. That was the moment when Leona leaned against the fountain railing and immersed herself in a book for a long time.

“Lady Leona?”

“Kyaaak!!”

Leona, startled by the sudden unfamiliar voice from behind, lost her balance. The trouble was that she was wearing an uncomfortable and cumbersome dress with plenty of lace and lots of decorations. Startled, she stepped on the wrong hem of her dress, causing her body to tilt. When her body leaned over the railing and tried to jump over it without overcoming the center of gravity, someone’s strong arm quickly grabbed Leona’s waist.

Surprised that she had almost drowned, Leona gasped. And as soon as Leona confirmed the identity of the person who saved her, she froze.

“No, why is the Duke here…”

Because the person in front of her was none other than Duke Adrian Cluid.
