Haul
The pretty woman before him continues to dismantle the carcasses with precision without even batting an eye on him. For the first time in his life, a woman is not caring about his presence at all and it is kind of a fresh feeling for him.
As a duke, there are plenty of women who are quite aggressive in their approach and are openly flirting with him as they know him as one who is looking for a partner. Young, and even old women alike are attracted to him due to his manly face. He is still young but he bears a resemblance to a handsome old gentleman that can make young and old people swoon just by his presence. He isn't old of course as he is still what people considered as in his prime.
In short, he isn't short of women lining up to become his wife. But for once, someone who has an indifferent attitude on him appeared before him and the frozen heartstrings suddenly got thawed in an instant.
