Chapter 202

"Stay safe alright? I can't have you dying on me."

Lady Melissa said as she gave him a warm smile, as Duke Gaston returned the warm smile to her back before he went down the stairs, in a rush.

Lady Melissa was relieved to know that backup was coming, she had wanted to die a number of times and craved the feeling of death.

But she would never ever want to die in someone else's hands.

If she died, she wanted it to be by her hands, by her will, and not someone else's.

Lady Melissa went back to the room filled with nobles, as she patiently waited for backup, closing her eyes.

Only a few people were talking to each other, and it was about the concern they had for their children, husbands, wives or etc.

Lady Melissa didn't say anything, choosing to stay in silence as she felt bad for the nobles who didn't manage to say goodbye to their loved ones.
