Chapter 256
However, it wasn’t easy to figure out who Carynne had chosen.
Most of Carynne’s life revolved around Isella Evans. She lived in the room next to Isella’s, running small errands for her and accompanying her on outings. Whether it was shopping, attending social events, or even participating in charity work at the cathedral, there was little sign of her being with any other man.
Outside Isella Evans, the only man Carynne interacted with the most was Zion Electra, but even their relationship didn’t seem particularly close.
Though Carynne’s beauty drew attention, with men often trying to help or flirt with her, there wasn’t anyone she saw frequently enough to introduce to her father. Dullan began to suspect that Carynne’s talk of a man was simply a pretext.
And she had grown annoyingly beautiful.
Her waist was slim, and her now slender body fully showed the marks of womanhood. Her skin glowed with a brilliant radiance, and even in the dark interior of the cathedral, her fiery red hair rippled and shimmered, emphasizing her graceful appearance.
It wasn’t just her outer appearance—her demeanor was entirely different from when she was younger. Carynne’s steps were careful, her speech was soft, and a smile always lingered on her face. Before long, rumors of the dazzlingly beautiful yet graceful Carynne Hare spread throughout the grand cathedral.
When Dullan thought back to the time she had thrown hot soup in his face or tried to hang herself as a child, the sight he was facing right now felt like a miracle.
But it was beauty without purpose. Carynne showed little interest in any man, focusing solely on attending to Isella. Carynne’s life had become that of a mere handmaiden to Isella.
‘Why am I even here?’
After a month, Dullan started to feel frustrated.
