"There must be a reason for you to come here in the middle of the night. Do you want to receive a return for the letter you found at the flower garden?

He has a hard bite I picked it up. It was an expression with a bad personality.

"Of course, the letters you found are worth It's an indefinite thing

But if you are here because of the pink diamond, you'd better go back. I will not change my words. If I said  no, then no"

I didn't come to ask for something in return."

The Duke eyebrows were slightly cracked.

I carefully put down the cup and pulled the letter out of my pocket.
As soon as I saw the light purple letterhead, the eyes of the Duke, who was full of fatigue, turned to look.
