Negotiations Between Heinrich Hyacinth And The Almandines

Harriet left the discussion with Crown Prince Hyacinth to Heath and the Old Duke, so she had more free time today. It had just passed noon, and she couldn't go about her routine, fearing it would be discovered that she had a voice in this house.

So Harriet considered visiting her husband, who had recently immersed himself in the library. Harriet didn't know what the man was thinking.

Something changed; that was all she knew. Liam was still as gentle and humorous as ever, but…

As Harriet slowly opened the door of the castle's library, she tried not to make a sound. If she stepped inside for a bit, she would see the reading table in the middle of the library where her husband used to sit and read a few books weekly. But Harriet needed help to see what book the man was reading.
