Chapter 48

Adelina smiled when she saw Elly's worried face. She would only be out for half the day. And since this was the first thing she had prepared on her own, it was only proper for her to take care of it as the mistress of the household.

"I'll be back soon. Mona, let's go."

As Adelina led the way, Mona quickly followed. With a determination to return as soon as possible, Adelina stepped over the threshold of the door. However, she was greeted with a surprise. When she saw the man get out of the carriage, her wide eyes blinked.

"H-Husband?"

Seeing that Adelina was on her way out, Ethan's eyes narrowed.

Adelina wasn't sure why Ethan was back now. She was under the impression that he was going to be at the Palace for much longer. Either way, Adelina had to go to the city today no matter what. 

"I wanted to go to the city before we went back home. It won't take me long, so I'll be back soon."
