Julian's eyes lingered on Duke Hans and Duchess Lisa as they exchanged playful glances across the table.
Their intimate looks reminded him of newlywed lovers. He couldn't help but grin as the conversation from the night before replayed in his mind.
It's going to be so entertaining, my dear Duke and Duchess. Julian said in his mind. How can I not take the opportunity that has been presented in front of me?

After breakfast, both families set out to explore the Duchy. They visited its most beautiful and noteworthy locations. The morning was filled with laughter and conversation as they wandered through lush gardens, admired grand architecture, and enjoyed the beautiful surroundings.
