“Then, let’s start coordinating from now on,” Roland commanded firmly, facing Kevan. ‘You may have a
busy schedule, but I believe you can manage your time. Accommodate Lar’s schedule so that we can
quickly set the wedding date, yeah?”
“Sure,” Kevan readily agreed.
And so, all the pressure fell on Larissa’s shoulders. nluriated, she gave Kevan a disdantul glance,

“When you have time, make sure to come and visit me again.”
“I wil” she promised solemnly.
As they exited the mansion, she asked Kevan, “Why didn’t you want to stay? Don’t tell me it’s because

slightly, seeming somewhat surprised.
“Yes, to accompany Grandpar She turned to glance but couldn’t catch a glimpse deep into the
