Carissa was surprised.
Had she been doing that?
She hadn't been resistant to getting close to Rafael. After all, they were intimate every night. They shared the bed, and curled up together. Throughout the night, her head had hardly left the comfort of his arms or chest.
Seeing Carissa's confused look, Lulu felt an inexplicable frustration rise within her. She asked directly, "My lady, do you want a respectful relationship with His Highness, like a pair of polite spouses, or do you want to be a real loving couple?"
"Lulu, aren't you overreacting?" Carissa reached up to touch Lulu's forehead. "Have you been possessed by something? Are you running a fever?"
Lulu puffed up her cheeks, and glared. "My lady, answer the question!"
Carissa tilted her head slightly, a few strands of hair falling out of place and dancing in the sunset glow. "Don’t you need both respect and love in a marriage? Just because a couple is loving doesn’t mean they can’t be respectful. Is it one or the other? Can’t I have both?"
"What?" Lulu was taken aback.
Both? Well, that wasn't out of the question.
Lulu paused, then continued, "But sometimes, it feels like you don't really care about His Highness' feelings. He's very concerned about yours. It has to go both ways."
"Why do you think I don't care? I do!"
"It just seems a bit off," Lulu said as she tilted her head to the side. "Like the late Lord Nathan and Lady Yvette—they really were a loving couple."
Carissa recalled that every time she returned from Meadow Ridge, she witnessed the affection between her second brother and his wife. They would walk hand-in-hand and sit close together. And when they thought no one was watching, her second brother would sneak a kiss. During meals, they would feed each other and occasionally share lingering glances across the table.
Carissa fell silent for a moment, then pushed away those memories. "Okay. I got it."

I wish there were more chapters uploaded daily. Atleast 10 per day....
When will the next chapter be uploaded? This story is so awesome!...
I’ve read several novels, but this is the best of the best....
I hope that Rafael will not fall for Carmen. I don’t think I can keep reading if he does. Carissa deserves to have a pure and strong love with Rafael that world stand the test of time and all trials and tribulations....
