Bringing poison??

"Yes…" Seraphina could never defy the Count's words. Her chin quivered unnaturally while she still couldn't hold her eye contact with the Count. The air around her felt heavy, as if she was suffocating under the weight of his gaze.

Raven then carefully took a seat next to her. Her body was still shivering and it seemed like she had no intentions of meeting his gaze at all.

The fear in her eyes was palpable, and Raven's heart ached to see her in such a state.

What the hell did he say until she got this terrified? Raven desperately tried to hold in his soaring anger. His fists clenched involuntarily at his sides, the knuckles turning white with the effort to remain composed.

All things considered, he was actually glad that he had informed the butler beforehand of his early return.

He thought of having dinner together with Seraphina and he straight away proceeded to depart on his way home from work.
