Chapter 29 Loyal servan (1/2)

”Princess Alicia.” Tricia said while entering the study room. ”Your afternoon tea waiting for you in the garden.”

”Thank you Alicia. Please prepare another cup for William. I think he will be joining us.” I said.

”I thought the young lord is busy governing the dukedom?” Leon said sarcastically. ”It would be bad if we hold him from his duties.”

”Oh no worries. I really had the afternoon off to visit Alicia.” William said with a soft smile.

'Why am I feeling tension here?' I thought to myself.

We walk towards the garden. William was right beside me while Leon and Tricia are behind us a few feet away.

William and I are chatting and giggling happily. Tricia was looking at sir Leon who was having a sour look on his face.

”Um, sir Leon. Are you okay?” Tricia asked. She can feel the coldness emitting from Leon.

Leon turned to look at Tricia with a fake smile.

”I'm fine. Why do you ask?” Leon said.

”Um, well... it's because my princess and the young lord are looking quite happy chatting with each other.” Tricia said.

”Why would I be unhappy?” Leon's fake smile was plastered on his face.

”You also like the princess, don't you sir Leon?” Tricia was bold to ask.

Leon became silent. His fake smile turned intosweet and soft smile. Tricia doesn't need to hear Leon's answer. Just by looking at his expression she know that he has some feelings for her princess.
