Ruby, "Why would he kill a commoner like Mrs. Norvella? Did they have a special relationship?"
"They were quite close."
Ruby quickly turned her head when she heard Viscount Castillo's voice interrupting her conversation with Matthew. The Viscount of Veles was walking with several soldiers behind him.
It seemed like he had just received a report on the current situation of Norvella's house.
Once Viscount Castillo stood before Matthew and Ruby, he told his soldiers to leave them alone.
"Mrs. Norvella and Sir Doran are quite close. I even see Sir Doran coming to Mrs. Norvella's house often."
Although Norvella already had one child, she was still relatively young—29 years old—and she also had a beautiful appearance that attracted many men.
Moreover, Norvella was already a widow because her husband died on a dangerous mission a few years ago. Because of her status, there were many men trying to get her attention, and some were even trying to propose to her.
