"He once told me that he liked Anna very much. But I thought he just appreciated Anna as an elder generation. And he only regarded her as a younger generation. So I didn't overthink it."
"Is he the Duke in Anna's letter?"
"What are you talking about?" Paul's face changed. "There is another Duke? You are the only Duke who lives in Rosen Castle. Who is the other Duke you mentioned? Are you still going to deny it now?"
Duke Rosen finally knew where Paul's hatred against him came from.
After figuring out the truth, he was no longer as angry as earlier. After calming himself down, he said in a flat tone to Paul: "I wouldn't deny it if it were really me. But I wasn't the one who did it. So I won't take the blame and inexplicably bear the bad reputation of being fickle and deceiving a young girl."
"The other Duke I mentioned is my friend Henry. At that time, he came to this castle to visit because he had a problem with his wife. And he came to me to get some relaxed time. So he didn't tell anyone about his identity."
"It's your choice to believe it or not. But what happened to your daughter really has nothing to do with me."
Duke Rosen sighed with emotions as he thought of what he had suffered. "I'm sorry about what happened to your daughter. If I had known what Henry had been doing to her, I wouldn't have let Henry hurt her like that. But, it's a pity that..."
Paul stared at Duke Rosen for a long time.
He suddenly knelt down on his knees, covered his face with his hands and cried out loud.
He has been holding hatred against Duke Rosen for so many years.
He thought that he had avenged his daughter and punished Duke Rosen.
But now, someone suddenly told him that he hated the wrong person and punished the wrong person.
It was another man who hurt his daughter.
Because of his misjudgment, the man who really hurt his daughter didn't have to pay any price.
