Chapter 10 - Talkig With You

"Mom, why is Dad like that?" Little Alexandra was holding her mother's shirt. Her golden eyes looked at his mother who had been looking only at her father since then.

Alexandra pulled her mother's shirt, and finally made her mother come to her senses.

The initially rounded eyes eventually became smaller, a smile appeared on her mother's face but in a way that made Alexandra uncomfortable.

"Your father is just a little dizzy. What if Lexa just played with Alfo? Mom will accompany dad." Lexa's mother saw Alfo and then Alfo held Alexandra's little hand, taking her away from her parents' on their room.

The huge door with beautiful golden carvings was closed. The last sight Alexandra saw was her mother looking at her father's face with worry.

Alexandra opened her eyes quickly, her breath was in a hurry because of the dream just now that made her have trouble breathing.

Thump! Thump! Thump!

Her heartbeat was fast.

"Alexandra, what's the matter?" Lucian touched Alexandra's cheek, making Alexandra's eyes blink and look at Lucian, the fertilizer was shrinking, her gaze became calmer even though her breathing was not very calm.

"Lucian ...."

"Yes, I'm here." Lucian looked at Alexandra worriedly, he was watching Alexandra intently.

Alexandra touched her forehead fiercely, and frowned.

"Nothing. What about your lesson?" Alexandra kept the time in front of her.

Around her were many books neatly arranged on large shelves filling the room, on a long table, on the table where she was located were two stacks of ledgers from the book she had just read when she saw Lucian who was getting a lesson from Alfo about Rissingshire.

Because Alfo was very chatty about this engagement, he felt that Lucian should have learned Rissingshire so as not to shame Rissingshire too much.

After finishing her work, Alexandra follows Alfo and Lucian to the family library, and pays attention to Alfo in giving lessons to Lucian. Alexandra was afraid that the noisy and vile-mouthed Alfo would hurt Lucian's heart. With her arrival just now, Alfo didn't say much. He kept his attitude before he got the punishment from Alexandra.

Yesterday when the duel took place between Lucian and Garit, Alfo received a punishment in the form of dealing with problems in one of the villages in the east of Rissingshire, Alexandra gave Aldo twenty-four hours to solve it, making Alfo a second unable to rest.

Remembering this made Alfo's body goosebumps.

"Everything is going well. Sir Alfo taught me well." Lucian said it with a smile. He was still watching Alexandra and saw a little sweat on his forehead, Lucian picked up his handkerchief from inside his shirt pocket, then wiped the sweat that appeared on Alexandra's forehead.

"Eeee?"

Alexandra was shocked, she looked at Lucian without blinking as if daydreaming was her habit.

Lucian who saw Alexandra's surprised expression immediately put away his handkerchief, put it back in his shirt pocket.

"I'm sorry that this cheap hand salute even touched your precious face." Once again Lucian apologized to Alexandra as he had.

"No. I'm glad for your attention," Alexandra said in a cold, flat voice. People who heard it would feel the cold going on, let alone Alexandra lowered her head and avoided eye contact with Lucian.

[I made another mistake...]

Lucian smiled awkwardly, facing this strong-spirited woman in front of him made him confused.

Alexandra as being able to do anything of her own accord, she was the most powerful woman in this Asteorene empire.

"Duchess Rissingshire, your dance teacher will arrive tomorrow." Alfo approached the two of them. From just now when he was cleaning up his textbook, he saw Lucian and Alexandra talking together and looked so close.

He don't know why when he saw that, he wanted to pull Lucian. It just so happened that he remembered the newly arrived letter about the dance teacher who was going to teach these two people in front of him.

"Who?" asked Alexandra to Alfo.

Her stare was already as usual, straight, cold, and domineering. Anyone who confronts Alexandra will feel that she is a great person full of charisma.

"Countess Wisewint, my wife." Alfo puffed out his chest proudly.

He even remembered his wife's face smiling at him while blushing like a tomato.

"Then I trust Marie. She is such a great wife, and can put up with such an annoying person like you." Alexandra stared at Alfo's coldness which made Alfo smile brightly.

After the study was over, the three of them walked together.

"How long will you follow us, Alfo?" asked Alexandra.

From just now she saw Alfo in the middle of herself and Lucian.

"I think you will need me." Alfo touched his chest proudly, but Alexandra didn't see it. While Lucian has always smiled since then always smiled at the interaction between the two.

"I don't need you, and now I'm walking with my fiancée. You don't know what that means?" asked Alexandra arrogantly.

[Of course I know, but I don't want to get out of here so easily ...] Alfo still kept smiling to cover the desire in his heart.

"Get rid of and take care of the distribution of relief funds to the affected area, Alfo." Alexandra stopped and looked at Alfo, seeing Alexandra's extremely serjhs gaze, finally Alfo nodded and lowered his head.

"Well, Duchess Rissingshire."

Alfo leaves them both behind, although Algo is annoying, but he is always serious about taking care of the Duchy of Rissingshire.

Now there are Alexandra and Lucian both. They continued walking until they passed the park and saw the lake where they first met.

"Do you remember this place, Lucian?"

Lucian smiled. It was impossible for him to forget this place, where he got two beautiful surprises that he couldn't possibly forget in his entire life.

"Of course I remember it. The place where I met you and my neck was almost separated from my body." Lucian chuckled while watching alexandra's surprised change in expression.

Yes, her knights had pointed swords at him.

"This is where I met my future husband."

The reply from Alexandra was no less surprising than what Lucian said earlier. Moreover, Alexandra smiled sweetly and loosely, the thing she never did, making Lucian trapped in the charm of the red-haired Duchess like her extraordinary personality.
