Estelle blushed and buried her head in Armand's arms, giggling with happiness.
But I felt so chill in my heart.
I didn't need to ask Armand anything anymore.
I had already understood everything.
After I returned to my room, I instructed, "Brenda, go to the temple and invite Master Alvarez over."
Before Alvarez arrived, Armand got the news and came first.
"Mildred? Are you doing those superstitious things again?
"Are you doing this because you're angry with me? Trying to get my attention?"
I looked at Armand's exceptionally handsome face and saw impatience in his eyes.
There was no deep affection in his eyes as he had for Estelle.
It was not until now that I noticed he no longer loved me.
I said calmly, "Didn't you ask me to calm down? I've already calmed down.
"I agree to let you marry Estelle."
Hearing my words, Armand had a moment of astonishment.
I thought he would happily accept. But he actually refused.
"I promised you that I'll never take any concubines."
