Mono rose, anxious, and sidled up to Joseph, whispering:
"Ah, Your Highness, you are my best friend! You mustn't let this matter slip out..."
Nowadays, taking a lover was hardly a matter of note; some "enlightened" noble couples even introduced lovers to each other.
But Count Mono, in this regard, was keen on seeking thrills—his mistresses were always of exceedingly high difficulty.
For instance, Countess Mesayer. She was her husband's beloved, and the nobleman who once tried to pursue her ended up with his arm broken by Mesayer.
Or like the Countess of Saint Priest who had just run out earlier, whose husband had a very strong possessive desire and forbade any man from approaching her. Her first lover was framed by Saint Priest and sent to toil in the Caribbean Sea.
However, these two ladies had both fallen to the audacious Mono.
