Chapter 172 : Secret whisper

Mira let out an exasperated sigh as she leaned against the wall, crossing her arms. "If it's going to take this long every time, why doesn't Lady Eleanor just bring Seiji to her estate?" she asked, her tone a mix of frustration and curiosity. "At least then, we wouldn't have to stand outside waiting like this."

Helena, standing nearby with her usual composed demeanor, couldn't help but chuckle softly at the suggestion. The sound was light, almost amused, as she shook her head.

"Do you really think that would work?" Helena replied, a hint of amusement in her voice. "The estate isn't exactly a place for... privacy. Especially with all the other wives, the guards, and the servants around. And you know Lord Ainorth's eyes are everywhere, even when he pretends not to care."

Mira huffed, pouting slightly. "Still, it would save us the embarrassment of... this," she muttered, gesturing toward the house.
