Chapter 1000: Chapter 1000: Weakened Divinities vs. Despicable Believers (Part 26)
Gu Shengyin looked at Royd with some surprise, not understanding when they had made an appointment?
But at this time, it was obviously inappropriate to let him lose face.
So Gu Shengyin put on a smile and followed the direction Royd pointed, getting into his carriage.
Royd didn’t leave but stood in place watching Gu Shengyin board the carriage, and then glanced at the confused Louis Wise.
"Louis," he called his subordinate by the nickname.
"I know your feelings towards her, but I advise you one last time: do not get involved with her." Royd’s tone was very serious.
This time, Louis Wise didn’t obey. Instead, he looked at his superior and asked, "Why, Your Grace the Duke, I think Lord Bis is a very outstanding and beautiful woman. I have the freedom to pursue her!"
"Why?" Royd repeated these three words, and then suddenly laughed.
"Then let me tell you." Royd looked at his subordinate, speaking each word clearly, "Because she will be mine!"
After speaking, he no longer paid attention to his dumbfounded subordinate, striding towards the carriage.
Because there was a lady inside the carriage, out of respect, Royd did not go in but rode alongside the carriage.
Under his command, the carriage slowly moved in one direction.
A cool breeze brushed against his face, bringing Royd back to his senses.
Even he hadn’t expected that he would say such a thing in front of his subordinate.
In fact, he had never thought before that he would have such feelings for this Oracle.
Not even before meeting today had he thought of it.
Perhaps when she said she could trust him, something that had been buried in his heart quietly sprouted.
Royd had never been someone to avoid reality. Since he had feelings, what he thought of was definitely not to hide or test her.
But to tell her openly and honestly.
What if she didn’t like him?
Royd refused to accept this possibility. In any case, as long as he, Royd, was around, there could absolutely be no other man by her side.
"Your Grace the Duke." A gentle voice came from inside the carriage.
"Could you please explain to me where you are taking me?"
At this moment, Royd could probably guess the expression of the person in the carriage: She would probably frown slightly. Even though being treated so rudely by someone, at most she would show a trace of helplessness and would not be angry or lose her composure.
"For lunch," Royd replied.
Gu Shengyin: "..."
When did she ever agree to have lunch with him?
She said, "Your Grace the Duke, I did not agree to..."
Royd’s voice came through the thick carriage curtain: "I have something very important to tell you."
Alright. Gu Shengyin closed her mouth.
If it’s something important, she wouldn’t say much more.
Only, why hadn’t he finished saying what was important back in that room?
The carriage came to a stop at a place.
The curtain was lifted, and a hand extended over.
Gu Shengyin hesitated for a moment, then placed her hand on his, borrowing his strength to get out of the carriage.
"Thank you, Your Grace the Duke." She turned to express her gratitude.
Royd felt the residual warmth in his hand, somewhat regretting that she withdrew so quickly.
"You’re welcome."
