Chapter 506
"Really? But I’m just a commoner," Kate doubted. She found it strange that someone like her could become a real Duchess. "It would be embarrassing for you to bring me into those fancy noble dinner parties."
Henry smiled and held Kate’s hand, "Weren’t you the one who told me that you often imagined yourself as a Duchess or a Queen? We danced in that castle in Canada, and I promised to make you one."

Henry smiled mysteriously, "Let’s see about it."
