Forbidden Love of the Archduke (2)
"Big brother, about the marriage proposal tomorrow. I've told Angel Raphael that I cannot marry him. Because I don't want to live in a lie…."
"What?!" Maximillien was astonished. "You—You're joking, right? You annulled the proposal with him? Why?!"
"Because I can't live in a lie, Big brother. I don't like him, and I can't marry him. I'd rather stay true to my heart and leave everything behind," Jean's beautiful eyes started pooling with tears as he continued, "Big brother, I will leave the duchy now, just like what you want. Please be well without me."
Maximillien gripped Jean's hand tightly, "What do you mean by that? Jean Eau Saumont, tell me what really happens between you and Saint Raphael!"
"We broke up! I've never loved him in the first place, big brother! Do you really think that I will keep my childhood crush on him forever? I'm an adult now, and I have someone else I love."
