Chapter 146: A Duchess For The Duke
When the carriage stopped, Olivia gasped and took a fast hurried breath as if she had been underwater all this time.
Her actions brought the attention of the six maids waiting for him and Damon.
"My lady.. My lord." Olivia watched as they did not address Damon as his grace yet. She wanted to tell him to not lose his composure. It was only a matter of time. But looking at the dazzling smile on his face, she blinked. Where did that short tempered man go?
She knew him well. But she did not understand this new version of Damon at all!
"Olivia.." she blinked and noticed they were all looking at her. "You are not coming?" he repeated and she flushed.
"I..." her burning cheeks made his eyes hardened.
"Even if you are waiting to see his highness first, you should follow the royal decorum and come with me." he chided her like a strict abider of the rules. Olivia flushed harder. She was not even thinking about Edward.
"Yes!" Why was she not thinking about Edward? The thought cleared her mind and she paid more attention to the surroundings. In the past she was never part of this deal.
She had only heard about it from the gossip from the maids. She could see more servants around and the way they all were alert. They were taken to the central palace and stopped in front of the meeting room exclusive for personal guests of his majesty.
