Chapter 111: The News Has Arrived!

"When you need nothing from him?" Olivia watched Damon in confusion. Her brows furrowed as she kept staring at him under the setting sun. His face gleamed brightly under the warm rays of the twilight.

"It can’t be that you are worried about me? Then why are you suddenly so curious?" she whispered, stunning him for a second. But it looked like she spoke more to herself than him.

Yet he was dumbfounded. Yes! Why did he care?

"If you have a relationship with the royal family, Orina’s position would only be stronger in the family. How would I fight with her then?" he spoke hurriedly as if he was afraid that his thoughts would scatter if he did not whisper them.

Olivia’s eyes flickered and then a cold smile appeared on her lips.

"I am not planning to challenge your position, my lord. I will support you when the time comes. As I have already signed a contract with you, I have made it clear that I do not want anything except survival. As long as you do not accuse us of treason or claim our lives, the duchy would belong to you." she bowed her head slightly.

Damon felt a strange itch in his chest. He wanted to tell her that he did not care about it. He was not accusing her either. But as he looked into her cold eyes, he felt at a loss of words. His chest felt heavy and he could not speak freely.

"That.. how can i trust you?" great! Was he even challenging her words now? What was wrong with her brain?

As expected, her face changed and she looked uneasy. He wanted to tell her that it was fine, but his lips just could not move.

"When we meet his majesty later, I will support you in front of everyone. Would this do? Or do you want my signature on any kind of contract?" looking at her earnest face, his face burnt. He felt like a bastard for challenging her again and again.

Olivia had done nothing but help him from the start. Yet he was questioning her like she was a criminal!!

"I suppose!" the words came out with force. He felt like he was becoming more and more unreasonable. But for Olivia, the words showed hesitation. As if he still did not believe her, but he had no choice but to accept what she offered.

Her face has a hint of helplessness!

"You have to trust me, your highness. If I did not support you. Would I have not warned his Grace about your plan already? Or why would I have helped you earlier?" hearing earnest words and desire to appease him made him uneasy.

He shifted his weight and looked away.

"Hmm!" hmm? Olivia looked at him in confusion. What does that word even mean? Was he accepting her explanation or was he just cutting it short since he did not want to argue with her in the royal palace?

Olivia watched him intently. But he looked reluctant to speak further, so she could only give up.

His majesty was looking for Damon for a long time. As she was still waiting for him to reply, a maid came to call for him. Damon left with hasty steps as if he couldn’t wait to create a distance between them.

As Olivia watched him leaving, she let go of a deep breath.

"And as expected, it is hard to win his trust." but Olivia did not give up. She had already expected the hardships.

She smiled and turned to return only to find Oriana standing there. Her heart reached her throat and Olivia felt it was hard to breathe.

"Sister!" looking at Oriana’s gloomy face, Olivia felt her throat go dry. Her palms were covered in sweat as she walked closer.

"Olivia! I did not expect this from you." the harsh voice trembled Olivia. Her eyes widened with fear. Her lips parted but her voice did not come out.

"Sister! Let me explain." she begged only to get a scoff in return.

"What is there to explain? You were speaking to Damon sweetly. Do not forget that he is your nephew. No matter how charming he is, you can not like him." Oriana watched with a harsh look.

Olivia, who was still framing an explanation in her mind, blinked and then blinked again.

But her confusion was only taken as reluctance. Oriana could smell love from a distance. She had found it strange that Damon had saved her from the carriage accident. And instead of sending her away, he took her to the royal palace and today also.

No wonder! He was young and in an age to fall in love. But could his own sister be so foolish?

She held Olivia by her arm and pulled her in a secluded corner. She looked around as if commencing on a heinous crime.

"Olivia, have you lost your mind? How could you even think about it? I am warning you." her voice rose with a deep scowl on her face, "you are here to marry prince edward, if rumors spread about you and Damon do you know you would be beheaded for betrayal and treachery!"

Olivia took a deep breath. It was hard to follow how her sister’s mnd worked. She and Damon?! Did Damon even look like he would fall in love?!

"Sister, I am sure Damon doesn’t like me." but it only meant that she liked him and followed him. But her eyes could not fool him, she had seen in his eyes. He was smitten by her. The way he was looking at her! Oriana frowned deeper!

"Olivia.."

"Sister! I am already here to marry Prince Edward. When will I even get the chance to meet Damon now? Your worries baseless?" only those words relived Oriana. Yes! Olivia would be in the royal palace and Damon would be the duchy. Where would they even meet?

"In that case..."

"Your grace.. Your grace! You must come with me."
