The next morning, we could see the exhausted look that was on Veronica's face.
It was clear that she had been scolded late into the night by her mother.
When she saw us, she looked at us with a resentful look. But that wasn't strange since we had basically abandoned her last night to her fate.
However, I didn't feel guilty at all when she looked at me like this.
After all, she had set up a trap for me in the first place and had wanted to throw me under the bus.
Since that was the case, it was only right that I turned this back on her.
In the end, she just got what she deserved.
The ducal couple looked much more rested than Veronica.
It was most likely because she had received some kind of punishment last night after they had gone to sleep.
This morning, we were heading on a tour of my territory with the ducal couple.
But when they came, we received a large surprise.
