It was a beautiful voice with no highs or lows. She could see his eyes staring at her with an expression that made her wonder what he was thinking.
The solitary figure made Filina laugh.
“I don’t think I remembered telling you my name.”
“……………Do you?”
His hoarse voice was very annoying.
Surely this was the first time today that she had a proper face-to-face meeting with Henry……………
“I only heard rumors. It was my first time seeing him in person.”
Suddenly, Laura’s voice echoed in her head.
“Lord Argeny wrapped his big hands around the Lady’s waist. He also leaned your head on his shoulder, afraid you might get hurt.”
‘D*mn it, why did I just remember that?’
Filina turned her face lightly to the side and bit her lip. The fact that he had saved her was a disgrace to her.
If she could only turn back time, she would never have agreed to the tea meeting. Then she wouldn’t have fallen down like that at Count Haley’s residence or gotten help from Henry Argeny.
From the look on his face, he seemed to remember the day she collapsed. Which made it even more embarrassing.
Filina averted her gaze and suddenly realized that he knew her name. Then, she suddenly asked with an absurd face.
“Did Laura reveal my name to the lord?”
Henry, who was staring at her face, furrowed his brow and recited.
“I’m flattered….”
He locked eyes with Filina again and gave her a dubious look.
“It’s strange. Your maidservant was hoping that I would remember the Young Lady’s name.”
At Henry’s words, Filina sighed and clasped her hand to her forehead.
‘I knew it…’
No wonder he called her name before they even had properly exchanged their first greetings.
It was a really embarrassing situation.
“Is your body all right?”
His elaborate voice brought laughter to Filina’s face.
It was ridiculous that the person who brutally murdered her was worried about her.
The eyes formally blurted out a question that was both terribly indifferent and not very interesting.
Cecilia had to have a formal engagement ceremony with the Crown Prince before the story could begin in earnest. She felt that it was a little early for Henry to play the role of mastermind properly.
He was one of the first to graduate from the Swordsmanship Academy and was asked by the Imperial Knights to participate in the Cohen War.
In the process, he single-handedly defeated hundreds of thousands of enemy troops, and the imperial family bought his “merit” for this so highly that they gave Henry the new title of “Swordmaster”.
After that, Henry set up a dark guild in secret. That was the development of all the events. Henry’s purpose was to completely destroy the family line.
He had an unfortunate family situation, just as there was a reason why Filina had no choice but to become a villain. His father, the Duke of Argeny, was known to be a very violent man.
