"PRINCESS NEOMA, I have a request," Lady Yngrid said, then she raised her head and looked at her straight in the eye. "It's about Ruto."
If it was about Ruto, of course, Neoma would listen.
[As long as it's not the same request as Lord Levi's request, then why not?]
She just hoped that Lady Yngrid wouldn't ask her to "break up" with Ruto. But judging by the gentle look on the lady's face, it didn't seem to be her request.
"What is it, Lady Yngrid?" Neoma asked politely. "I'll do it as long as it's within my power."
"The burn mark on my son's face…"
Ouch.
Her conscience pricked her heart.
After all, she was the reason why Ruto had a huge burn mark on his face.
"Lord Levi can actually remove the burn mark on Ruto's face, but he refused to have it removed."
"But why?" she asked, confused. "I was told that the burn mark can't be removed because it was the payment for the contract that I made with the Devil."
