Chapter 94

When Alexia’s face was finally covered, the maids slowly heaved a sigh. All, except for Vivian who still looked somewhat anxious while the other maids were just hoping that the Young Lady would depart at once.

It seemed quite awkward for both the master and the servant to wear a hat at the same time, but their identities were roughly hidden at least. As their work was completely finished, the maids immediately left the scene. Since they didn’t plan to be accompanied by many people in the first place, no one else would be going—only except for the two of them.

When the crucial moment was eventually passed, the carriage that was boarded by the two began moving steadily. While those outside could finally take a breather, there was a very chilling silence looming inside of the carriage.

There was Vivian who had been dressed up fancy while trying to keep her posture in a stiff manner, in contrast to the relaxed Alexia who was simply enjoying the outside view.

What on earth was Alexia even thinking? The reason why she suddenly wanted to visit the Grand Duke and on top of that, not as herself, but to go there as a maid was simply suspicious.

She wasn’t someone who would suddenly like to visit the Grand Duke after all this time. Is this perhaps due to the hat that was caught on yesterday? Vivian carefully turned her gaze away from under her own hat.

Nevertheless, Alexia’s gaze was still locked on to the outside. Compared to Vivian who was already used to all of this, it was her very first time to pass through all these roads.

The path to the Grand Duchy was just barren. There was nothing that could attract Alexia’s gaze, which had always been provided with beautiful things when she was growing up. Despite all of this, Alexia still kept her gaze locked outside.

When the carriage had finally reached their destination, Alexia donned back the hat. Customarily, Vivian had to descend first, but this time was absolutely different. As she looked at Alexia who had first gotten off, a strange feeling surged within her.

“Have you just arrived?”

“How about the Grand Duke?”

Vivian merely asked a brief question since she was really conscious of Alexia, to which the butler bowed his head politely. Fortunately, it seemed like he wasn’t really paying any heed to Alexia, who was just behind Vivian.

“The Grand Duke is in his bedroom.”

It was up till yesterday that he had been someone who went around with her thoughtlessly. She believed that his behavior would remain like that when he got back to the Grand Duchy as well, but how could he just return to his own bedroom? When the butler was aware of her questioning gaze, he began explaining in detail.

“It seems like the Grand Duke has lost the afterglow of the recent trip…….”

“Is he having a fever again?”

The butler immediately nodded to Vivian’s question.

Vivian, who began hurrying her steps out of concern, stopped all of a sudden.

Alexia was still behind her. There was no doubt that Alexia was watching all of her gestures—keenly.

Vivian tried very hard slowing down her feet, which wanted to walk hurriedly, as she raised her head—quite stiffly.

“Please guide me to where the Grand Duke is.”

“I understand.”

The curtain in the Grand Duke’s room was still drawn when she had entered following the butler.

Even though the curtain was always open after Vivian’s recent visits. With a feeling as if she was returning to her very first time here, Vivian slowly stepped inside.

“About that maid……”

“It’s fine. Let her be by my side.”

“Understood.”

He could have inquired about Vivian’s conduct since she never brought a maid along, but the butler only nodded his head.

Then, when the butler had finally left after closing the door like he had always been, Vivian let out a faint sigh.

Vivian slowly scanned Knox. His sleeping face looked just like the dead, but there were beads of sweat forming on his forehead. How much have you suffered in your sleep?

Vivian barely held back her urge to reach out and wipe his sweat away.

“My Lady, please take a seat over here.”

As there was no sign of Knox waking up, she continued to whisper cautiously. Right when Vivian had finished her words, Alexia was already sitting on the chair at that instant before swiftly looking around.

“For someone who is said to hold the most wealth and honor between the clans now, there’s nothing much to see actually.”

The same voices that were used to talk to one another sounded much more dubious than what she had expected.

Is this what it feels to be meeting a doppelgänger? Alexia muttered with a disgusted expression all because she felt like she was talking to herself in the mirror.

“What on earth do you even do in this room where there’s absolutely nothing to do that he keeps on calling you everyday?”

“That is…… I’m nursing him.”

“Nursing?”

“Yes. Wipe his sweat away or……”

Vivian spoke before swallowing back some of her words. It was all due to the fact that she recalled the time when they had mingled their bodies together under the pretence of nursing.

“……feed him or even assist him with something.”

“I don’t have to do that all my life, right?”

“I heard that his illness is merely temporary. Plus, nowadays he is getting much better.”
