Barbara felt a rush of warmth as Richard's soothing voice filled her ears, spreading a smile across her face. In that tranquil moment, she could almost tangibly picture the scene of their upcoming wedding. The sun illuminated the serene setting, causing the flowers to sway gently in the breeze, and their cherished friends and family encircled them to honour their love. Overflowing with excitement, Barbara was already immersed in the planning of her dream wedding dress.
"As soon as you come. We will hold our wedding. I will arrange everything so you do not have to worry about anything," he reassured.
"You are making it hard for me to depart to the north," she said, and he chuckled.
The door was opened and the baron burst in. Richard stood up, regaining his neutral expression, so as not to raise any suspicions about their relationship.
