When The Count’s Illegitimate Daughter Gets Married

Chapter 24

“We are very glad to see you so soon, Duke. We just heard that it was a wrong accusation.”
“……..”

Ian’s eyes stared at the Count. Those emotionless eyes of his, accompanied by his dark skin, were enough to make him look scary.

Flustered, the countess cast a glance at her husband.

The count hurriedly walked towards Ian, releasing his clenched palms. He addressed his words to her.

“Hmph! Of course, our Duke was innocent….. Even I would have helped with all my heart.”
“Wha-….Ah, yes.”
“Are you here to take your wife, Duke….?”

Ian nodded, his eyes never leaving the Count’s face.

As a matter of fact, their conversation was not even properly intertwined.

Ian, who was unaware of Laritte being an illegitimate daughter, thought that the Count had sent his daughter to the villa and left her unattended. He literally thought the Count couple to be her biological parents.

A clear misunderstanding.

The Countess chimed in.

“Then I’ll get Rose right away!”

Only then did Ian’s face brighten up. It seemed like he had thought his Goddess’ name to be Rose.

The Countess, who had noticed the sign, excitedly spoke up.

“We had already got the news of your arrival from beforehand. So, I asked the maids to prepare her upstairs. Please let me show you around, Your Grace.”
“Very well.”

Ian followed after her.

Halfway up the stairs, she glanced down at Ian.

‘Should I apologize for sending Laritte instead of Rose?’

After clearing her throat, she spoke up with a nervous smile.

“Isn’t our pure-blooded child always better than that illegitimate girl?”
“…….?”
“Since the misunderstanding is resolved and everything is back to its own place, Rose should definitely go to the Duke’s side……I was really worried about her.”

Unable to understand any of her words, Ian and Redra exchanged their glances.

Since Ian was almost cut off from the society, he did not know that an illegitimate child was left to rot in that villa instead of Rose.
