Much to Lena's surprise, the Marchioness maintained her silence when she heard her question.
Was that a question she shouldn't ask?
"Why, Marchioness?" she asked. "Is it a difficult question?"
Marchioness Jana smiled, making Lena feel even lost.
"No, Your Highness. There aren't many things to say about Lady Marianne and I was wondering how I should start," Jana Serelli said and made a deliberate pause. "Lady Marianne is very unique, Your Highness, but... if she wasn't born as the daughter of Duke and Duchess Alensar, life will be much easier for her."
"What do you mean?" the Crown Princess asked as the Marchioness made her feel more and more lost.
"I don't know much, Your Highness," Marchioness Jana promptly said. "She is always very secretive but if you're curious, I dare to say that she is not a bad person, Your Highness. You can try and get to know her."
