CHAPTER 46

The next day, there is an awkward atmosphere in the mansion. Duke Harrison noticed it immediately and looks at his eldest son and his granddaughter. Both are not talking with each other. His little granddaughter didn't even greet Ronald this morning.

Clementine naturally noticed it. But he did not ask his daughter immediately. Instead, he made sure that Penelope will finish her breakfast first. After his daughter finished her glass of milk, Clementine pick up his daughter so they can go to the library together.

Ronald is about to follow them but Duke Harrison stops him. The duke said he has something important to discuss with him. Hiding his true emotions, Ronald looks in Penelope's direction and gives her a warning look. The little girl ignores him and rests her head on Clementine's shoulder.

"Daddy." Penelope calls him in a sweet dragging voice.

"What is it, Loupie?" Clementine asked while walking.
