Kyle stared at Grand Duchess Amanda, her words still sinking in.
Of all the things she could have said, a confession was the last thing he expected. His disbelief must have been obvious because Grand Duchess Amanda let out a small sigh, leaning back in her chair.
"This is not a joke, Kyle. My offer is genuine."
She said firmly.
Kyle exhaled slowly, forcing himself to calm down and think logically.
Grand Duchess Amanda was not the type to say things without reason.
If she truly had fallen for him, that was one thing—but this engagement, whether she had feelings for him or not, had to serve a purpose beyond just romance.
'This is not a simple engagement, right? Even if the Grand Duchess tells me she likes me, how can mere feelings influence someone at her level?'
Seeing him lost in thought, Grand Duchess Amanda continued.
"Ah, I can tell that you are confused about a lot of things. But I did not make this decision without thinking about it."
