The Tamed Heiress - Chapter 73

Dana, who seemed determined in her own way, was not so calm. She couldn’t stay in the room and eventually chose to take a walk because she felt sick after eating.

When Dana stepped up, Lily naturally followed, and so did Ahil. Ahil was walking three steps away from Dana at the Grand Duke’s order but he was not yet convinced why.

It was noisier to have them follow her with a disturbed mind. She wasn’t used to carrying someone around yet.

“Well… You don’t have to come because I’m only going to stay in the castle. I’m not going to go to the west side palace like last time.”

“Never. Don’t worry about it and go where you want to go.”

Ahil replied sharply and turned his eyes to be wary of the surroundings. Dana smiled awkwardly and said to Lily.

“Lily, you can go in. I don’t mind going around alone.”

“Don’t worry about it! I’m not going to watch or listen to anything!”

Lily also didn’t intend to listen to Dana.

Dana had no choice but to stick with the two behind her as she walked further away. Now she was Leon’s “fiancée” in this castle.

What do I want to do with Leon?

The truth was that before she decided on what to do, it was important for her to figure out who she was.

She was very scared, even though she was pleased to hear that they could get married. However, when she heard that she’d have to be “Dana Deniz”, her blood felt cold.

She thought she knew why he made such a proposal, but as soon as she heard it, rejection came up. To be exact, her pride was hurt.

My greed… It got bigger. I didn’t even know the subject.

She wanted to be recognized and loved more as herself. Somehow she laughed out loud because of that. So who is she saying she is?

Would it be appropriate to stand next to him or someone in her current state?

But do I want to live as his mistress? That’s not it either.

When Leon said he would greet Dana as a true wife, not the mistress, his proposal might be an easy way.

With a long sigh, she looked into the distance. As she stared at the west inner palace, she suddenly turned around to Lily and Ahil.

“Come to think of it… Hey, Lily. What was the maid’s name?”

“Who are you talking about?”

“At that time… The maid who volunteered as a dedicated maid. We didn’t get along well…”

“Terra?”

Dana nodded, and Lily’s expression was embarrassed. She carefully asked about Dana’s intentions.

“Why are you looking for Terra?”

“I want to ask you something. Can I see her?”

“Everyone else can do it, but Terra can’t do it now.”

“Why?”

Lily hesitated a little, unlike her, to answer. Then Ahil replied instead.

“The maid named Terra is in the dungeon now. It is said that the maids from the Side Palace testified. She pretended that she didn’t know you.”

“Oh…”

Dana closed her mouth firmly. Of course, Ahil’s words were true, and she had to pay for lying.

“Then what happened?”

“If that’s true…”

Ahil slightly frowned on one eye, blurring the end of his speech. She would probably die because she framed a “distinguished guest”, and put her in danger.

However, it was not true that Dana at that time could be called a “distinguished guest”. However, the result would not be different because it was the position of the “distinguished guest” of the Duchy.

While Ahil was in agony alone, Lily muttered with a gloomy face.

“What’s wrong with Terra, she seems to hate you particularly. She is also suspicious that at the end she said that while she was being carried by her hands and feet…”

“Terra said she worked in the castle for a long time.”

“Yes, that’s right. She’s the oldest of us. She has been a maid since she was very young.”

“Okay.”

Dana was lost in thought for a moment, and she raised her head as if she had made up her mind.

“I should meet Terra.”

“What? You’re going to the dungeon?”

“Yes, can I go there?”

Dana was heading that way even though she asked if she could go. Lily followed with concern.

“It’s a little too much for you to go there… Why do you want to meet Terra?”

“Well… I think I’ll know when I meet her.”

Ahil didn’t talk much about her going to the dungeon. From Ahil’s point of view, the dungeon was rather a safe place because of its strict security.

Dana was a little nervous but didn’t slow down. In front of the entrance to the basement, there were two soldiers and a knight guarding it.

A knight who had not yet recognized Dana asked in a hard tone.

“Who are you? This is a restricted area.”

“Sir Chen, she is the fiancée of the Grand Duke.”

“Oh, Sir Ahil. Is that true?”

The Knight named Chen opened his eyes wide and looked at Dana. He had heard the news of the castle too.

Unlike in the past, Dana wore high-quality clothes and accessories, and only one maid was accompanying her. Above all, Ahil was with her. Ahil was famous for being the best knight ever carried by the Grand Duke.

“Okay. Show this to the soldiers inside. It’s dark, so please be careful where you step.”

Chen’s tone became more polite. He took out the access plate and tried to give it to her. However, the voice that stopped him suddenly flew in.

“Keep it, she can’t go there.”

“Your Grace.”

Dana looked back and Leon was already behind her. After breaking up like that earlier, she felt a little awkward and embarrassed seeing him shortly after.

“Why are you going in here?”

“…I want to meet the maid named Terra.”

“Terra? Ahh.”

Leon remembered who the maid was, nodded once, and turned his back to Dana. This time, Dana couldn’t make eye contact and turned to the side.
