The young lady, who was demanded to break off her engagement, shed tears and left the place.

"I want to break off our engagement. I cannot reciprocate your love." "...This engagement is between our families. Do you already have the Marquis's permission?" "Of course. I would never do something so foolish. I have persuaded my father and already obtained his permission. He will contact you tomorrow at the latest." "...I understand. I will also speak to my father about this. I am terribly sorry for all the trouble I have caused you until now." With those words, Anneliese left. Her eyes glistened with something luminous, her hand covering her mouth.
