Do you love him?

Marguerite wants to return to the palace at once but quickly remembers that she had the intention to buy a gift. Should she still buy it? 

She decides that she will buy gifts for her friends as well. She visits multiple shops for a while and spends quite a sum, but she wounds up satisfied and happy with her choices.

She goes back to the hotel and asks the guards to accompany her to the palace. Once they return, the first person she sees is Jurian waiting for her at the entrance.

"Where were you?"

She isn't sure why but Marguerite feels somewhat guilty. It's not like she has to explain anything to him, so why is she feeling that way?

"I went out with Armel."

Jurian looks at her with piercing eyes.

"I know that."

What?

Marguerite feels that Jurian's behaviour is bizarre and a sudden urge to flee overtakes her. She doesn't say another word and walks passed him towards her room. Jurian doesn't stop her either.
