Chapter 101
“Liv!”
While the people of the Hamelsvoort family were anxiously waiting for a reply from the temple, Emmett arrived first. He had gone down to the Arendt Marquisate and returned at an unbelievable speed.
When Liv, who had spotted him riding on horseback through the window, went down to the entrance, Emmett ran up and embraced her.
“Why are you out? When you’re not feeling well.”
“I just look unwell... I’m actually fine.”
“Your forehead is hot.”
Liv could only remain silent as Emmett said this while touching her forehead. In fact, her physical condition was not good. Although she had pretended to be fine because the atmosphere in the Hamelsvoort family was so grim.
The ones who approached Emmett with even more welcoming faces than Liv as soon as they saw him were the Hamelsvoort couple. Liv glimpsed desperation in Lady Hamelsvoort for the first time. It was hard to believe that she could make such an expression.
“Duke, have you heard about Walter?”
“...I heard about Young Lord Hamelsvoort after entering the capital.”
“We need your help, Duke.”
The Count said this while grasping Emmett’s hands. Although the Count’s hands were wrinkled, they were gripping tightly as if he would never give up on rescuing Walter.
