With Aimee, Arielle entered the reception room at Whitethorn Palace.
A man with most of his hair had turned to silver smiled kindly at her. He took off his hat, then bowed respectfully as Arielle approached him.
"Thank you for accepting my request to be able to meet you in person, Your Highness. I'm Gipp Perez, Duke of Lamberkin."
"Your welcome, Duke Gipp."
Arielle extended her hand, and Lord Gipp accepted it, then kissed Arielle's knuckles gently.
Ah, Arielle knew where Lazarus got his Casanova. From the first second Arielle met Lazarus' father, the man always gave her a big smile.
Duke Gipp widened his eyes when he saw a woman standing behind Arielle.
"Aimee? Are you Aimee?" Duke Gipp asked curiously. He couldn't believe that Aimee had grown up to be a very beautiful woman.
"Lord Gipp, it's good to see you again."
