At that moment, Nicole made a decision that she would marry Levant, the man who saved her life. That way, Stephen could head back to the estate sooner.

Back to the present, the duke’s frail figure flashed before her eyes again. Unwittingly, tears started streaming down her cheeks.

 
 

“Nicole, what’s the matter?”

“Nothing. Levant, I hope that you will keep your promise and send my Dad back to the estate after we’re married.”

Levant was pleased with Nicole’s reaction. It seems that Stephen is indeed the best bargaining chip I have. I would be able to marry Nicole as long as he’s under my control.

 

“Of course, Nicole.”

 

With that, Nicole went back home. However, the feeling that something was amiss nagged at the back of her mind.
