Become the city lord from today

At seven o'clock in the evening, the Royal Capital, Duke of Kailac's Palace

"Madam, eat something. You eat so little every day."The maid begged, looking at Miss Catherine who was leaning on the bed.

"Take it away, I have no appetite."Catherine waved her hands indifferently and looked at the lute hanging on the wall. She didn't know what she was thinking.

"Miss, if you continue like this, you will faint from hunger again. The maid choked with tears in her eyes,"Then the master will be angry again.""

"snort! If you are angry, be angry."Catherine's face was pale, and the corners of her mouth were slightly hooked,"Anyway, to him, I am just a piece of cargo, as long as it doesn't break."

"this……"The maid was stunned. She didn't dare to answer this. It would be fatal if someone heard it.

"Go down."

A powerful voice suddenly sounded behind the maid, which made the maid tremble.

"ah!"The maid quickly turned around and saw an old man in his sixties, about 1.7 meters tall, with a gray beard and a majestic face.

"master."The maid bowed respectfully, then bowed her head and retreated.

This old man is the Grand Duke of Kairak, one of the three great dukes of the Kingdom of Yingluo, and Catherine's father.

"Catherine, you don't eat well again."Kailac sat on the chair and looked at the intact dinner on the table with an expressionless expression.

"My daughter has no appetite. Catherine glanced at Kailac with her golden eyes and said coldly,"Father, I'm going to say those words again today, so there's no need to speak. I won't agree.""

"Catherine, you are too presumptuous."A young man walked out next to him, about twenty-three or four years old. He was Kailac's eldest son Tov, the man who shot Catherine's pigeon.

"Huh, what does it have to do with you?"Catherine said indifferently, pursed her lips, and didn't even look at him.

"you……"Toph's face suddenly turned ugly. He was the future Grand Duke, and he was so disrespectful to him.

"Okay, you go down."Kailac waved his hand, and Toph closed his mouth unwillingly, turned around and walked away.

"……"Catherine raised her lips slightly. This time she understood what Darlene said before, what her fate was.

"Catherine, you should understand that marrying the eldest prince Lucia is the best choice for you and is also very beneficial to the family."Kailac persuaded me kindly.

"……"Catherine was silent and didn't answer. Someone would say something like this to her every two or three days.

"It is inevitable for the eldest prince, Lucia, to ascend the throne. The second and fourth princes have already retreated to their fiefdoms. Now no one dares to compete with the eldest prince. You marry the eldest prince and the queen."Kailac said passionately. The position of the Grand Duke will be more stable. Maybe the younger members of the family will have the opportunity to sit in that position in the future.

"……"Catherine's still silent eyes flashed with a trace of sadness. She was really a commodity. The good things she had done to her in the past were all illusions. They were just to cultivate a good commodity. A good commodity with a good reputation could be sold at a good price.

"……"Kairak frowned at the expressionless Catherine, his face suddenly darkened, and he said coldly,"What am I asking you?"

"I want to rest."Catherine lifted the quilt and hid in

"Huh, I can't let your temper be this time. You have to get married if you don't want to."Kailac snorted coldly, stood up and rolled up his sleeves and walked out.

He had not publicly supported the eldest prince before, and now he can only remedy it, and Catherine is the best remedy. He has trained Catherine since she was a child, not just for today, otherwise he would have spent so much money. Gold coins to buy something like a lute, a waste of money?

"Uh-huh……"

Catherine was sulking in the quilt and crying. She had forgotten how many tears she had shed during this period. She was helpless and imprisoned. If she hadn't had a trace of expectation in her heart, she might not have been able to hold on.

She had been imprisoned in the room for several months, being manipulated by several old maids every day to learn court etiquette and the code of conduct of the mother of a country.

She almost couldn't hold on anymore, and she would rather die if she was asked to marry someone she didn't like but hated.

If she had never met Liu Feng, she might not have such a big reaction, so she would just marry him. But now that there is someone living in her heart, it would be a bit desperate for her to get married again.

"click click……"

There was a sound of scraping sand on the wall, which gave people goosebumps. Catherine trembled slightly, lifted the quilt and looked over, and saw a figure standing in the darkness of the room.

Catherine's golden eyes widened, and she was about to shout, then she saw a black shadow walking out of the darkness, and tears streaming down her face when she saw that familiar face.

"Woo……"Catherine flattened her mouth with tears streaming down her face. She covered her mouth with her hands to prevent her from crying, otherwise the maid outside would come in.

"This is Lucy's letter to you."A hint of pity flashed through Jones's red eyes, and she came to Catherine silently, handed over the letter, and a small box with her left hand, and said coldly,"This is what Liu Feng gave you."

"Uh-huh!"

The small box was snatched away by Catherine in an instant, and then she took the letter. Jones's eyes twitched as she read it.

"I'll come again tomorrow."Jones said calmly, she entered the darkness of the room nimbly, and left the Duke's Palace secretly. Catherine looked at the darkness in the corner of the room, the corners of her mouth raised, a touch of red on her pale cheeks, and she looked down at the box and the letter..She has confidence to live again

"Tap tap tap……"

There was a sound of footsteps, and Catherine was so frightened that she quickly hid the letter and box under the quilt.

"Madam, have something to eat."The maid brought another piece of polished rice porridge.

"Um."Catherine nodded lightly.

"Miss, if you don’t eat again……"The maid tried to persuade her again as a habit, but she was stunned mid-sentence and looked at her young lady in disbelief. If she wasn't deaf, did the young lady agree just now?

"Bring it over."Catherine said coldly

"yes."The maid brought the polished rice porridge over with a smile on her face.
