"The boy that brought you today, do you know that he loves you?" taken aback by the sudden words of her mother, her lips parted but she was not able to speak a word as shock filled her eyes!

"Olivia Grasitias! Do not act like you do not know!

He looked at you with such an intense gaze that even the maids could feel his emotions!

Do you know when you were unconscious, his face had turned pale and there were even tears in his eyes!

He was looking so worried that even as a mother I felt ashamed that I did not feel that much worried!" Though she started in a stern voice, in the end her expressions turned softer!

Olivia knew that the man had a soft corner for her. That was why she had tried to reach closer to Leo through him!

But since the day she had befriended him, Leo had been too busy and often out that idea did not work well.

She even tried to find the weakness of Leo through him but he was so loyal that never opened his mouth against Leo and whenever she talked about Leo, his expressions turned so upset that she did not continue for long!

But what if the letter was true! No! It could not be!

"Oli! Are you even listening to me!" blinking her eyes she sighed and nodded as she knew her mother would not let the matter go that easily!

"And!!" three deep lines formed on her forehead looking at the eyes full of expectations of her mother!

"Mother! What are you talking about?! He is just an aide of the family I wanted to get married to! How could you expect me to reciprocate his feelings!" what was her mother even thinking by suggesting it!

"Tsk! He is a human and as a count before being the side of Leo and to think that you only judge people with their relationship with that Thawne kid! How pathetic are you?

If you want to spend all your life in this one sided love then all i could do is feel sorry for you and for that boy who fell in love with such a dumb girl!" though her words were cold and harsh, the disappointment in her eyes were harsher which made Olivia more hurt!

"Mother! Why don't you understand that I love him!" at least, as her mother, she should understand her and help her but no! Even she was passing her sarcastic remarks! How could she be so cruel to her!

Her mother sighed as she pinched the space between her brows! Even as a duchess, she was ready to let go of her husband's pride and accept a count as her son in law!

"What do you want me to do? Support you in your one sided love and make you a villainess? Or tell you to look for the one who loves you and give him a chance so that you could be the main lead in your own love story!?

Oli, you have to learn when to let go! Rest is your wish!" In the end, Olivia kept looking at her mother who did not spare her another glance as she left the room and felt betrayed!

Even her mother did not understand how much she loved him! Could this letter!

She smoothen the crumpled letter from her hands and read it again.

Standing up from the bed, she changed her clothes and called the maid who came in running,

"Help me in getting ready!" the maid stared at her with a stunned look and then hesitated,

"My lady, madam, had asked you to take a rest and not go out for the next two days!" so that i would not be able to stop his marriage!!

Her hands clenched into a tight fist and her face turned colder!

"I will handle mother! You do not have to worry about that! Do what you are asked to do!" Olivia walked towards the chair in front of the mirror and sat on it as she stared at her maid who hesitated for a few seconds, before nodding and started combing her hair.

"Apply more cream! My face should not look pale!" the maid nodded and applied a third layer of cream yet her puffy eyes and pale face could not be hidden completely. But it was far better than before!

Nodding her head, she stood up and then took out a gold coin from her purse!

"Here! Do not tell my mother I am out until she finds out by herself!" the maid hesitated but the shine of gold sparkled her eyes!

She nodded as she took the coin in her hands and continued to stare at it for long while Olivia's eyes filled with disdain!

She took the shawl and covered her face with it as she walked out of the room as silently as she could!

"Take me back to the family of the duke Thawyne!" The coachman looked bewildered as he stared at the sky that had already started to turn red!

The party would have ended till they reached there. But when he faced the cold and displeased look of his mistress, he nodded and started the carriage.

She continued to stare at the distance as her hands fidgeted with her dress!

What was she expecting! Could this letter really change her luck!?

"My lady, we are here!" The words brought her back to her senses and she nodded as she walked out of the carriage.

Taking a deep breath, her eyes filled with determination as she walked towards the garden that was empty now.

"My lady, the party had already ended!"

"Yes, I know! I have an urgent matter to deal with, young lord!" her voice came out strained and both of the knights exchanged glances!

"My lady, lord, is busy. Tomorrow is his marriage! If you can wait for a day!" though they did not want to sound rude, they had been told to not disturb him no matter what happened!

Olivia was already expecting it. She had seen how cold he was when they met before! But she would not return so easily after coming this far!

"I understand your worries! Pass him this letter and ask him if he would still refuse to meet me then I would return back!" with a sweet smile on her face she assured the guards that she was not here to create any ruckus!

She was here to test her luck! She could not accept defeat after coming this far!

"Umm, alright! Pass me the letter!" he forwarded his hand but Olivia did not let go of the letter for long as she continued to stare at it.

As if a miracle would happen and the letter would start speaking, she did not know what she was even thinking and why she was hesitating! That was what she had wanted all her life!

No! Bracing her heart, she let go of the letter and the knights bowed his head and left from there!

"Would you like to wait in the meeting room, my lady!" when she nodded, the knights turned his head and spoke in a loud voice,

"Sir Arden, would you please escort lady Olivia to the waiting room, I am on guard shift!"

"......."
