"Where are you going, Edgar?"
"Alfred, I know that you must miss me after being away all night long but please leave me alone. I am starting to find you to be as annoying as my mother. You should be aware that what happens in my marriage only concerns me and my wife. Go tend to flowers or whatever it is you have been doing to enjoy your last day here," Edgar shooed Alfred away like an annoying little fly.
"No, I would like to apologize for forcing things to happen between you and the duchess. I should have learned from what happened the first time. Is that what angered the duchess?" Alfred rubbed his sweaty hands as he was afraid he had offended Alessandra.
