Upon their arrival at the mansion, Rosalind anticipated a peaceful evening with Lucas, a respite from the constant stream of news and demands. However, their tranquility was abruptly interrupted once again, this time by a summons from the palace. The message was clear: the King required the Duke's presence.
Initially reluctant, Rosalind deliberated for a moment before changing her mind, instructing Lucas to heed the summons. He voiced his concern, citing the contagious nature of the situation they had fabricated as an excuse. But Rosalind knew the truth all too well. The King and Queen were far from naive; they were aware that their reasoning was a fabrication. The royal couple had likely deduced that Lucas used this pretense to avoid receiving guests and spend time exclusively with his wife.
