Duke Gary and Lady Ellen could only shut their mouths tightly after his words. Lady Ellen may wish to become the wife of the Lord but before that she knew who was Ian White and the rumors that had always surrounding him. Most of the rumors were dark that one wouldn't wish to hear as it would leave them with sleepless night, haunted by the story.
Lady Ellen and Duke Garry was left confused by Ian's sudden outburst of anger as they didn't know what they had done to gain the Lord's anger. The whole time they had done nothing but curry favor to be on the Lord's grace which had been good as the man had been smiling and laughing only until the maid's mistake. They could only curse at Elise inwardly in their heart for ruining everything they had worked hard for.
