The Tamed Heiress - Chapter 79
“Does she deserve that? I’m still…”
When Leon tried to take off his shirt and pants, Dana hurriedly turned around. While she was already getting far, her new reaction was funny to Leon.
“I was pretty good at that. It’s about dealing with people. Are you going to make that maid yours?”
“Terra is honest and selfish. I’m not loyal or righteous to anyone. But she’s quick-witted, and she’s been working in this castle for a long time…”
“Say more.”
The voice from the back was very sweet. Dana was relieved and recited her thoughts.
“She’s not going to be anyone’s person. But there are certain likes and dislikes, and she seems useful because she is sensitive to profits and active.”
“That’s why she treated you like a dog, not a human. While training with food.”
“That must mean…!”
Looking back, Dana’s eyes widened. She thought Leon had finished changing, but he stood behind her naked.
Undressed, he was dignified and confident. Rather, Dana couldn’t find a place to set her eyes on, so her face flushed.
“It sounds good. It looks like you’re going to be a hostess in earnest, have you made up your mind?”
“You said it’s not something I can choose anyway.”
Dana answered in a slightly smaller voice, desperately looking down.
“It seems like I’m making an excuse, but I’m just saying.”
Leon reached out to Dana and said.
“I’m going to take a shower. Will you join me?”
“I just washed up.”
She knew now that washing up with him didn’t just mean that.
She refused lightly and grabbed his hand. Then Leon hugged Dana tightly and entered the bathroom.
“Then it’s easier.”
Dana decided not to turn away from the instinctive desire that attracted her. And instead accepted the marriage as Dana Deniz, she changed her mind to actively utilize that position.
I don’t have any memories, so I can be anyone.
The bathroom door was closed, and after a while, the maids appeared and disappeared with towels and gowns in front of the door. The daily life that caught fire whenever the two met was now quite familiar to the maids.

“Whoo.”
Harbert looked anxiously out of the wagon window, wiping off the sweat on his forehead. Beyond that, there was a magnificent grand castle.
Everything was smooth.
The Grand Duke accommodated and purchased all the items proposed at the Deniz merchant, and paid a huge sum.
But he kept feeling uncomfortable in a corner of his heart. It was that he did not send back “Dana Deniz”, who he put forward as a stand-in, for the Grand Duke.
I heard that a Grand Duke likes her and makes her the hostess.
In that sense, it made sense to come out favorably to them from the Grand Duke’s side. However, it remains to be seen whether it will benefit in the long run.
If she gets caught being fake.
Just thinking about it gave him chills in his spine. Not only himself but also the entire merchant group will be a shaggy field. Even their families will be exterminated and they will be called slaves in the castle for generations and generations.
“Whoo.”

So she should never get caught.
So Harbert was on his way to the Grand Duke to see the situation in person. He’d never been invited, but he was at the top of the deal, so he would be let in if he put it around.
The question was whether he could meet Dana, the stand-in. If she became the hostess, it could have been harder to meet in the future. So he had to meet her before that.
If she has a real thought, it’ll come out.
She shouldn’t forget her duty just because she’s cute to the Grand Duke.
Harbert looked at the gate with a nervous face. Soldiers came and went through a long line of carriages to enter the castle, confirming their identity.
Knock knock~
“Excuse me.”
A soldier approached Harbert’s carriage, and he rolled up the curtains and showed his ID card. The soldier alternated between his ID card and the wagon and asked loudly.
“Are you from the Deniz merchant?”
“That’s right.”
“Wait a minute! Commander!”
When the soldier called someone, a much higher-looking knight approached and opened the door.
“Get off and follow me this way.”
“What? Suddenly? I only… Oh, I only need to see the head. Please come and tell her.”
“The Grand Duke said that if the upper-level officials came, give the message directly. I will pass it on to you now.”
Harbert hurriedly got off at the name of the Grand Duke, but he did not readily understand.
The Grand Duke is coming out directly? To see me? If he wanted to see me, why didn’t he call me separately?
As he hurriedly followed the knight, he was guided to the garden terrace for welcoming guests, not to a large drawing-room. The simple blooming spring flowers were beautiful, but they were not his interest now.
There was a person who was seated. Looking at a middle-aged gentleman sitting gracefully with a teacup in his hand, the knight hurriedly took a bow.
“Your Highness! You were here. I’m sorry for disturbing your rest. We’ll take him somewhere else.”
“No, I’m about to leave. But who is the person you came with?”
Harbert bowed his head, recalling who he was when he was said to be a duke.
“He’s Harbert from the Deniz merchants. He is currently serving as a vice-president at the top. We have something to discuss with him for a moment…”
“Oh, it’s from Deniz. Come sit here, let’s have a cup of tea.”
Owen got up from his seat and asked him to shake hands. Unexpected hospitality made him hold Owen’s hand with both hands. He still didn’t know what was going on.
The knight stood up and said.
“Then you two can talk, and I will come back with His Grace.”
“Well, wait a minute.”
“What?”

Harbert hesitated to call up the knight.
“Our head… Please post a request that I really want to see her.”
“What do you mean, she said she’d stay here. She wants to see you too, so she’ll ask you to come.”
The knight, who was indifferent when Harbert spoke, immediately turned silent when Owen spoke.
The knight disappeared, and Harbert sat on the chair as if he were sitting on a thorny cushion.
