When she heard Smelian say he wanted to speak with her alone, Lu Xia couldn't help but worry that something was wrong with him.
And something that no one else could know, at that. It sounded serious.
Lu Xia nodded. "Wait for me, then. I'll go change my clothes."
"There's no rush." A smile touched Smelian's eyes when he saw her agree. He was handsome to begin with, but his smile made him look impossibly gentle.
It drew the glances of many people nearby.
One had to admit, the males of the Rafaelde Family were quite handsome.
No wonder they were so popular among the many females of the Empire.
Unaware of what was on their minds, Lu Xia greeted Admiral Snop and gave some instructions to the researchers at the No.2 Institute. Only then did she go change and leave with Smelian.
On the way, Lu Xia messaged the old butler, telling him not to prepare dinner for her and Smelian. She also sent a quick note to
Graces, letting him know that she and Smelian would be home late.
