What She Wanted (2)

The storm was going strong outside, but nothing could compare to the atmosphere in the room. Blaine looked at her blankly as if he couldn't comprehend her words.

"You just need to wait till the morning and the courthouse will transfer the property to you. Even the title can be passed this way," he couldn't understand.

"You think I'm after the estate? Or the measle title you are offering?" Arianell asked coldly. The noble name meant nothing to her, as the count would cease to exist if it was absorbed under her new marquess's rank. As for the house, it was close to the Duchy of Idir and far from the west. Having it on her hands would be troublesome.

"Then what it is that you want?!" Blaine almost shouted impatiently.
