Chapter 11
“Lady Selina!”
“Oh my! My lady! Are you all right?”
Ah, what a mess.
As the blood started circulating back into my head, I realized my hand had been covering Aiden’s mouth for far too long.
Sorry, Aiden. But I did wipe my hands earlier.
Given the situation, it wasn’t long before the servants swarmed around us.
I was practically collapsed on the floor, with Aiden supporting my back in a rather awkward position. I tapped his shoulder lightly, signaling him to step aside.
Old habits die hard.
Aiden immediately understood my signal and withdrew his hands from my back, helping me to my feet.
“I’m fine. I just felt a bit dizzy and lost my balance. Thanks to Aiden, I didn’t get hurt. Thank you, Aiden.”
“...It was nothing. I simply did my duty.”
Aiden responded stiffly, forcing a smile. His acting skills had definitely declined compared to before.
