The Tamed Heiress - Chapter 81
Oh… Come to think of it.
When Owen was a little younger, she thought he was just like that face. When she first dreamed, she felt a little like it was Leon, but when she thought about it, it was natural that the two were rich, so they had a somewhat similar atmosphere. And certainly, the character in the dream was closer to Owen than Leon.
Why? That was before I knew the Duke. Did I get influenced by Leon?
“If you’re tired, you can go in first.”
When Dana was quiet with a serious face, Leon tried to let her in if he thought she was in trouble. But Dana shook her head slowly and looked at Owen.
“Can you tell us a little more about it? I want to hear it. Parents… Story.”
Dana carefully brought it up. She was worried about her dream, but she had to know a little more about herself to really play the role of Dana Deniz.
“What do you mean? You lost them both early, so you may not know anything.”
Owen nodded as if he understood and began to think about where to start. Of course, he couldn’t tell her everything. Here, there were not only Dana but also Leon and the officials of the merchant group, and in the end, there were things that only he knew and had to ask.
Owen felt bitter thinking of Sophia, and another person he should not forget.
“How long have you been working with Russel?”
“I joined about five years after the top was first created. It was around the time when branches began to appear throughout the continent.”
“Then you probably don’t know much about it.”
“Yes… we didn’t really talk about personal things.”
All of those who were close to Russell took control of the top and dismissed them all.
“Russell was originally a knight. He was the most courageous and competent knight in the Order of Tertius.”
As if he had never heard of this story, Leon glanced at Owen. He knew that the predecessor Deniz and his father Owen had some connection, but he heard the details for the first time now.
“How did the knight become a merchant… He was able to make it this big, right?”
Dana focused on his story and asked questions without hesitation. Owen increased his appetite by looking at Dana.
“Of course, it was because of his good business skills. But he had a responsibility and duty to do so. Because he made a promise with me.”
“What kind of promise…?”
“Promise to protect your mother.”
Dana closed her mouth and blinked at his words. Much was omitted, but in any case, Russell Deniz was originally a Tertius knight, and at Owen’s order, he guarded Dana Deniz’s mother and made a merchant group and revived.
More than I thought… He’s an amazing person. In addition, he has such a connection, so can I stand in the line for that daughter?
“What do you mean by protecting her?”
Leon, who was quietly listening, looked at Owen with calm eyes and asked.
However, Owen only smiled vaguely but did not answer it.
“Then you must be doing a lot of work at the merchant group. Dana, the representative, still lacks experience.”
Harbert looked at Dana with his eyes and answered politely.
“Yes, that’s right. Since Dana Deniz here gave the agent a power of attorney, he and I will pack the top together.”
“You have an agent? Dana, are you going to let go of the merchant head job?”
Dana, who was a little embarrassed by Owen’s unexpected question, suddenly changed her mind.
“I’ll leave it up to them for the time being, but I’ll have to find everything soon. I’m the representative. I look forward to your kind cooperation, vice president.”
Owen nodded happily at her bold answer, and Harbert couldn’t say anything with his mouth half-open.
“If you don’t have anything else to say, just get up, father.”
Leon seemed to be uncomfortable somehow, so he hurriedly tried to leave. Then the other three also got up from their seats.
“I have something to say apart from work, so go back with father first. I’ll catch up with you soon.”
“What? Oh… Yes, okay.”
Owen was willing to escort Dana and take her out.

As soon as he confirmed that they were completely off the terrace, Leon looked at Harbert with cool eyes.
As soon as Harbert received his gaze, he automatically became wary and stiffened. Leon approached him very slowly.
It felt like a big beast was wandering around, so Harbert was about to break into a cold sweat.
“You.”
“Yeah.”
“Lower your voice.”
Leon went close to him and lowered his voice quietly near his ears. Harbert, who was shaking once in a chilling feeling, shut up again at Leon’s warning.
“So, where’s the real thing?”
And his heart almost stopped at the following voice.
Grand Duke… Do you know she’s fake? But why?
“Tell me. Where and what Dana Deniz is doing right now.”
“What are you talking about?”
Whether to say that he knew this or not, Harbert pretended not to know in the face of a lifetime crisis, but of course, it was of little use.
“Do you want to die?”
Leon’s voice, which had only been cold, flowed out as if it were a blade.
“That’s what I mean, Dana Deniz is…!”
“I told you to lower your voice.”
“Ha… Haah!”
Leon grabbed his neck with a big hand. Even though he didn’t use much strength, his threatening gesture made Harbert feel suffocated and blank.
“Dana Deniz… Nothing. She’s completely gone.”
“What does that mean? Say it properly. What do you mean she’s gone?”
Harbert squeezed his brain as hard as he could. What would be advantageous for one’s life? Why didn’t the Grand Duke raise any questions when he knew she was fake?
“You just like the fake thing that’s here, right?”
Harbert, who concluded that way, lowered his voice on his own.
“It’s completely gone… she’s dead.”
Leon was not particularly surprised to hear that Dana Deniz was dead. It was one of the things he expected. Building a band means there’s a problem.
He stared at Harbert with his eyes that he needed more explanation.
“One day, she disappeared, so I looked for a long time… She was found dead.”
“Suicide? Killing?”
“Probably… Su… Side…”
There was no end to lying. But it was true that she died. Can’t he just say that Rian Felice strangled her to death?
When asked why she committed suicide, what should he say? Harbert was thinking again.
Leon dropped himself from his arm and spoke calmly.

“Anyway, if one day the real thing suddenly appears, there is no reason to make the Grand Duchy difficult in the future.”
Leon’s mind was resolved anyway, so he wasn’t interested in why she committed suicide. Even if it was suicide or murder, it wasn’t really interesting.
If it’s “killing”, it’s something that someone can aim for again.
“Of course, that won’t happen.”
In response to the definite answer, Leon nodded and walked out in the direction of Dana’s disappearance without even paying attention to Harbert.
