"We should go back to Nova City." Grey turned to Lia and spoke. "Since you are going to stay here either way, we will make sure that your father knows about it. We also need to deal with the Duskwood family and I have another thing to do as well."
"No..." Lia spoke softly. "I don't want to meet him."
"Huh? Why?" Grey frowned, he understood that their relation was very strained by the sounds of it.
"..." Lia had a look of hesitation on her face, however she decided that hiding it from him would not do any good either and she decided to tell him about it.
"Trying to match you with the members of the Duskwood family?" Grey frowned. "Does he not care about your own personal wish at all?"
He might have asked that question, but in this world that was the sad reality the majority of the people, especially ones from huge families, had to suffer. They cared more about traditions and family upstanding than anything and this could be seen through the city lord's intentions.
