Rion shrugged and said, "Duchess Scarlet never respected her husband because he came from the second family. She always felt higher and nobler than her husband. They have been living in a loveless marriage for decades.”
“How could you know about other people’s household matters?” Odette furrowed her brows. She looked at her husband intently.
“People talk," said Rion.
Odette’s eyes narrowed. “I didn’t know you liked listening to gossip, let alone about other people’s household gossip.” She really had no idea about it. Odette never expected that Rion would know about gossip around the nobles.
Rion then explained that the rumors had been circulating for a long time, and because so many people were talking about it, he finally found out.
Besides, the spies he had sent to observe Duchess Scarlet’s movements since he found out about her plans also said that the couple’s relationship was very disharmonious, confirming the rumors that had been circulating were true.
