CHAPTER 49 (2). SEEMS TO NOT TRUST ME

"Ah…"

It was a young woman. A woman with fire-red hair and red-brown eyes, that gave the impression of overflowing even at a glance, and Petronilla quickly guessed that she was the Duke of Efreni's mistress.

Petronilla glanced over at the Duchess of Efreni, who was shaking her body and suppressing her emotions in order not to show such ugliness in front of Petronila, who was the guest. But for Petronilla, who had already grasped the whole situation, simply thought that the Duchess hated her husband's mistress to that extent.

Petronilla wondered whether to greet the woman, who was supposedly the Duke's mistress but decided to stay still. Even if she did, her status was not low, so it would not be a fault to do so.

Petronilla sat still and watched the dynamics between the Duchess and the mistress. The Duchess calmed down her trembling hands and asked the mistress.

"January, what is it?"

"I was wondering if a guest had come, Elder Sister."
