"Princess, I would not beat around the bush. The reason for my coming here is to beg you to return the island to us. That is our inheritance, a place where we grew up and where we have lots of fond memories. I can buy it back."
Amaya's brows were raised as she looked at the man who was pleading before him. Didn't the Earl tell her that his children have no affinity to the property which he spent sweat and blood to acquire?
"The Earl told me that you did not like to stay in Lireya, that you found it boorish and your life is more comfortable in Usturia. And you even changed your citizenship." Amaya was blunt with her words.
"My father is old and he is muddle-headed. While our current residence is in Usturia we still would like to maintain connection to where we came from and keep our roots."
