Starting Today, I'll Work as a City Lord.

"Go down."

A mid-spirited voice suddenly sounded behind the maid, which made the maid tremble.

"Ah!" The maid turned around quickly, and saw an old man in his sixties who was about [-] meters tall, with a big gray beard and a majestic face.

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

This old man is the Grand Duke of Kerak, one of the three Dukes of the Kingdom of Yingluo, and Catherine's father.

"Catherine, you're not eating well again." Kerak sat on the chair and looked at the intact dinner on the table with a blank expression.

"My daughter has no appetite." Catherine glanced at Kerak with her golden eyes, and said coldly, "Father, today is the time to say those words again, so there is no need to speak, I will not agree."

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

"Hmph, what's none of your business?" Catherine said indifferently, pursing her lips without looking at him.

"You..." Tove's face suddenly turned ugly. He is the future grand duke, so he didn't give him face.

"Okay, you go down." Kerak waved his hand, and Tov shut his mouth unwillingly, turned around and strode away.

"..." The corners of Catherine's mouth slightly raised. This time, she understood what Darlene said before, what is her fate.

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

"..." Catherine remained silent and did not answer. Someone would say something like this to her every two or three days.

"Eldest Prince Lucia, ascending to the throne is inevitable. The second and fourth princes have retreated to the fief. Now no one dares to compete with the eldest prince. If you marry the eldest prince, you will be the queen." Kerak said passionately .The Grand Duke's position is also more stable, maybe the younger generation of the family will have the opportunity to sit in that position in the future.

"..." Catherine was still silent, a trace of sadness flashed in her golden eyes, she was really a commodity, the kindness to her before was all an illusion, just to cultivate a good commodity, a good commodity with a reputation, Can sell for a good price.

"..." Kerak frowned and looked at the expressionless Catherine, his face suddenly sank, and he said indifferently, "What should I ask you?"

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

"Hmph, I can't let your temper go this time, you have to marry if you don't want to marry." Kerak snorted coldly, got up and walked out, shaking his sleeves.

He didn't publicly support the eldest prince before, and now he can only remedy it. Catherine is the best remedy. He raised Catherine from a young age, isn't it just for today, or would he spend so many gold coins on such a waste of money as a lute?

"Ugh..."

Catherine was weeping under the quilt. She forgot how many tears she had shed during this time. She was helpless and imprisoned. If she didn't have a little bit of expectation in her heart, she might not be able to persist.

She has been imprisoned in the room for several months, and she is taught by several old maids every day to learn court etiquette and the code of conduct of the mother of a country.

I can't hold on any longer, let her marry someone who she doesn't like, but hates, she would rather die.

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

"Click da..."

There was a sound of scraping sand on the wall, which made people get goosebumps. Catherine trembled slightly. She lifted the quilt and looked over, only to see a figure standing in the dark part of the room.

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

"Woo..." Catherine pursed her mouth, tears streaming down her face, and covered her mouth with her hands to keep from crying, otherwise the maid outside would come in.

"This is a letter from Lucy." A trace of pity flashed in Jones' 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 Liu Something Feng gave you."

"Shh!"

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

"Tomorrow, I'll come back." Jones said lightly, entered the darkness of the room briskly, and left the Duke's mansion in a concealed manner.

Catherine looked into the darkness in the corner of the room, the corners of her mouth turned up, a tinge of red flushed her pale cheeks, and she looked down at the box and the letter.

She had the confidence to survive again.

"Ta Tata..."

There was a sound of footsteps, and Catherine quickly hid the letter and box under the quilt in fright.

"Miss, let's eat something." The maid brought another bowl of polished rice porridge.

"Yeah." Catherine nodded slightly.

"Miss, don't eat anymore..." The maid habitually persuaded her again, but she was stunned in the middle of her speech, and looked at her lady in disbelief. If she was not deaf, did the lady agree just now?

"Bring it here." Catherine said coldly.

"Yes." The maid smiled and brought the polished rice porridge over.

Chapter 0629 rest assured waiting.

The maid looked at Catherine who was munching on the polished rice porridge, her eyes blinking non-stop, as if she saw something unbelievable.

She knew that the young lady had lost her appetite for several months, she stayed in her room closed all day, occasionally cried non-stop, or was in a daze, and only ate a little food unless she was really hungry.

It's been a long time since I ate something like today. Miss Darlene would have been like this when Miss Darlene was around.

Is the lady thinking about it?Want to marry His Highness the First Prince?The maid opened her mouth, but she wanted to say something but didn't say it. She wanted to ask if Miss Liu Feng had been forgotten?

As Catherine's personal maid, she still knows some secrets. For example, Miss Ye will call a person's name when she sleeps and dreams.

"Huh..." Catherine let out a long breath and patted her stomach, feeling refreshed.

She turned her head to see the maid in a daze, and said angrily, "What's the matter? Why are you so dazed?"
