Roxana smiled brightly, like a sun that shone on the flowers. "Because you have done me a favor."
Earl Knox was surprised. "I only did that because you helped Lona."
"I know. However, I can't deny that because of you, I was able to win the court." Roxana said, "To you, I may look like someone who is hungry for power. However, believe me; I don't want to become a Duchess just because I want to acquire power."
Roxana just wanted to break off her engagement with Izekiel and live more freely. She no longer wanted a relationship with the Grand Wizard, even if she had to risk everything.
"I understand, Your Grace." Earl Knox smiled at her. "I don't know what things you want to do in the future, but I hope the Gods will always guarantee your safety."
