I looked at him, for the first time examining this man carefully. I had to admit, compared to Harper, he was still handsome, just a little bit of a rogue.
It’s almost laughable. The man who everyone avoided like the plague was now going to be my husband.
After getting rid of Harper and Grace, I finally had a moment of peace.
It was then that I remembered there was an auction I had to attend tomorrow and by chance, I had mentioned this to Axel.
The next morning, after getting ready, I headed out.
Now, news of me was everywhere in Calbery, so I had to be extra cautious when going out.
As soon as I entered the auction house, I overheard people talking in hushed voices.
"Did you hear? Mr. Scott has declared that the pigeon blood red must be secured for Grace today!"
"Of course, I've heard! Isn’t he engaged to Zelda? How did he suddenly marry Grace? I heard her background isn’t even that good! And it seems like she was supposed to marry Axel, but in the end, Mr. Scott snatched her away!"
"Who knows, but Zelda from the Frost Family has now become the laughingstock of Calbery!"
"You know what? Zelda got engaged to Axel yesterday!"
"Oh my God, this sounds like a novel!"
