NovelEnglishChapter 154: Leticia
“…Rihannan, I won’t let you…”
Igor’s growling voice soon turned to one of deep moaning, the pitch of his voice a little higher than normal. It was a strange feeling. The more he satisfied his own desire, the more his affection toward her grew deeper, so much so that he could never possibly measure the depth of his love for her.
When their lips finally parted, his expression looked similar to that of a defeated man.
“…Come back as soon as you can. I don’t like being alone…” he mumbled while out of breath.
“You make it sound like I’ll be gone for several days. I’ll only be gone for a day,” Rihnannan laughed, her voice a melodic rapture.
“And that’s precisely why I’m letting you go. If you don’t return the night after, I’ll create a big fuss and commotion… more than when you visited my mother,” Igor said playfully.

Seeing her stutter in reply, Igor smirked. Rihannan tried to escape his arms of embrace, wiggling a few times, but it was to no avail. After a while, she surrendered and sighed weakly.
Igor turned her around and held her hand. He looked at her as if telling her not to move, so Rihannan laid next to him quietly.
“Actually, how long will we be like this?” Rihannan asked not long after.
“Why? Do you hate it?”
“It’s not that I hate it, but the documents…”
“Ugh…”
She heard the sounds of teeth grinding together.
“I swear on my name and honor that I’ll take care of all those documents before the day ends, so please stay like this with me for a bit longer.”
Rihannan thought that if she said anything further, then he’d simply tear apart the documents in front of Basil angrily so she gave up and closed her eyes.
As she laid there, sleep soon took over. The insomnia that troubled her for the longest of time was no longer and she could sleep with ease.
Ignore noticed that her breathing turned to one of deep sleep and quietly smiled.
《Volume 6: Leticia》
Duchess Saphia welcomed her 30th birthday with a grand banquet. It was a grand occasion too. The queen herself would be visiting personally. For this reason alone, the duchess had been in a fervently elated mood for the past month. It was rare for a royal such as the queen herself to visit a domain, unless one had a prestigious family title.
“Happy birthday, Duchess Saphia.”
As the banquet began, the queen arrived at the party and greeted the duchess, who in return smiled broadly.

Rihannan smiled. “I should be the one thanking you for allowing me to attend.”
It was no mere empty compliment. The banquet was massive in scale irrespective of the place it was held. The number of guests invited ranged in the hundreds. The duchess had even invited clowns and dancers to liven the mood. It was clear that she had devoted much of her time and effort to her grand banquet.
“It’s but a humble small party. It can’t compare to the banquets at the palace or the parties the previous duchesses had thrown in the past. I’m moved to tears to hear you praise this banquet so highly.”
Rihannan gave a bright smile at Duchess Saphia’s humble reply.
“I’ve brought you a present. I hope it’s to your liking.”
Mrs. Cessley, who stood next to the queen, presented a small box to the duchess. Everyone’s gaze immediately turned to the box in her hand. It was a royal gift the queen presented to someone for the first time. It was obvious that it’d grab their attention.
What would be inside?
Jewels?
Perhaps something worth of value?
Everyone wondered in curiosity.
Duchess Saphia gently opened the box. Inside it was a simple looking book. While everyone wore a look of disappointment, the duchess gasped deeply in shock.
