Leon's/Christopher Faust's POV
Everyone around me locked their eyes on me, staring from every direction. I could practically see the shock on their faces when they realized I was the owner of Leonamon.
Even Rose looked stunned. I had never told her I owned Leonamon, and now, she was staring at me like everyone else, her eyes practically demanding an explanation. And, of course, I'd give it to her later. It wasn't like I was trying to keep it a secret from her in the first place.
"Duke Merca, it's been a while," I greeted the man approaching me. I'd known him for only about two months. He was a patron of the cake shop, and he ended up offering me a piece of land to expand the business. Not that he personally liked the cakes—it was his daughter. He doted on her so much that he called me in to discuss a partnership. In return for a monthly supply of cakes, he gave me the land to boost production.
