Suxin didn't say anything else and silently returned to her room, knowing it was futile to say more. What's done was done; the transaction was inevitable.
As the next month drew closer, everything proceeded normally and in an orderly fashion, yet Suxin's heart became more and more chaotic, feeling like the calm before a storm.
In recent days, Arthur had been very busy, often going out, and his presence in the castle was seldom seen. Whenever he returned, it was almost always in the middle of the night. Based on Suxin's understanding of him, she knew the day of the transaction was not far off, probably within the next couple of days.
"Why am I feeling so uneasy?" Suxin muttered to herself, feeling suffocated in the castle. "It must be just my unnecessary worries, nothing will happen. Nothing will happen!"
Picking up the keys to a Ferrari, Suxin headed towards the garage. Normally, the driver would take the wheel, but today she wanted some time alone to clear her head.
