Chapter 102
Rexid was pouting the entire time he sat waiting in the new room that the duke prepared. Rosica pushed at his lips with her index finger and told him.
“Put your lips back in.”
“The duke is odd.”
“Don’t say things like that. Someone might misunderstand.”
“Of course they’ll misunderstand. In front of me, he always…”
Rexid added, making the corners of his eyes droop.
“…wore an expression like this, but as soon as you arrived, he got all riled up, opened the windows, fluttered around trying to get the smell out, and even said that he was going to take a shower!”
“There’s nothing wrong with that. He’s addicted to Leuprosen, it’s not good to smell like something that’s not even a normal cigarette.”
“Why did he smoke it in front of me then? Is it okay for me to smell it?”
“You and I aren’t the same.”
“He’s odd! He’s strange! My animalistic instinct tells me so!”
“There’s a reason.”
“What is it!”
“I think the duchess and I resemble each other a lot.”
