ROMANTIC TRIGGER (1) DEAR DUCHESS BRISTON, SUMMER HAS ARRIVED, AND THE ONCE-BLOOMING ROSES ARE NOW SHYLY DRAWING IN THEIR BUDS. IT TOOK ME A LONG TIME TO REACH OUT, AS I WORRIED MY LETTER MIGHT INTRUDE ON THE SWEET BLISS OF YOUR NEWLYWED DAYS. HOWEVER, I COULDN'T SUPPRESS MY BELIEF THAT YOUR GRACE, TOO, SHARES IN THE GRAND DREAM OF ADVANCING THE WORLD OF ART. WITH THAT CONVICTION—AND AT THE RISK OF OVERSTEPPING— I HUMBLY SEND THIS LETTER. WHAT A LOAD OF NONSENSE. NOT EVEN WORTH A REPLY. DISPOSE OF IT. P-PARDON? WHAT? ...NOTHING, MY LORD. I'LL TAKE CARE OF IT. FROM NOW ON, BRING ME ANY LETTERS FROM THIS MAN FIRST. YES, MY LORD. ...IS THIS REALLY OKAY? I MEAN, THAT EARL IS DEFINITELY SUSPICIOUS, AND IT'S NOT MY PLACE TO MAKE JUDGMENTS, BUT... STILL, HE SEEMED TO BE IN A BETTER MOOD YESTERDAY. IT LOOKED LIKE THERE WAS SOME HOPE FOR RECONCILIATION... IF HER GRACE FINDS OUT ABOUT THIS, THEY'LL JUST END UP FIGHTING AGAIN... AND THEN I'LL PROBABLY GET CAUGHT IN THE CROSSFIRE TOO... WHY THE TROUBLED FACE? SOMETHING THE MATTER? NO, IT'S NOTHING AT ALL, REALLY. I TOTALLY SAW THAT LETTER. WHAT'S UP WITH HIM? ...WELL, I'LL PRETEND I DIDN'T NOTICE. UM... LADY CHESTER! ? THE THING IS... I RECEIVED THE PAINTS YOU SENT, ANRI. THANK YOU SO MUCH. I FEEL A BIT SHEEPISH— I'M NOT EXACTLY TALENTED ENOUGH TO DESERVE SUCH SUPPORT— BUT I STILL WANT THE VERY FIRST PAINTING I MAKE WITH THESE TO BE A GIFT FOR YOU. OH, EUNICE... YOU REALLY DIDN'T HAVE TO GO THAT FAR. OH, AND YESTERDAY, BARBARA... WAIT A SECOND, THERE'S NOTHING ABOUT "W" HERE. SHE PROMISED SHE'D TELL ME WHAT HAPPENED IN HER NEXT LETTER! YOU'RE GOING TO BURN A HOLE THROUGH THE PAPER, YOU KNOW. W-WHEN DID YOU GET HERE? I DIDN'T EVEN HEAR YOU... I WASN'T EXACTLY TRYING TO BE STEALTHY. MUST'VE BEEN QUITE THE CAPTIVATING LETTER. YEAH, WELL... ANYWAY, IS THERE A REASON YOU'RE LOOKING FOR ME? ...HAVE YOU EVER FIRED A GUN BEFORE? A GUN? NO, NOT EVEN ONCE. ARE YOU AFRAID OF GUNFIRE? HMM... NOT REALLY. PEW-PEW? GOOD. CHANGE INTO SOMETHING YOU CAN MOVE AROUND IN AND MEET ME OUTSIDE. AN HOUR SHOULD BE ENOUGH, RIGHT? ...HUH? THE PROPOSAL YOU SUBMITTED YESTERDAY HAS BEEN APPROVED. AND JUST LIKE THAT, MY 6-DAY PROTEST AGAINST THE HOUSE CONFINEMENT CAME TO AN END. WHOA... BE BACK BY SUNSET. YES, MY LORD. ...NO MATTER HOW MANY TIMES I SEE HIM, HE'S STILL RIDICULOUSLY HANDSOME. EVEN HIS HUNTING GEAR LOOKS LIKE IT WAS MADE JUST FOR HIM. ...WAIT A SECOND. ISN'T THIS... A DATE? HERE. TRY HOLDING THE GUN. THE BASICS OF SHOOTING ARE STEADY BREATHING AND FOCUS. AND BE SURE TO CHECK IF IT'S LOADED. O-OKAY... YOU ALSO NEED PROPER POSTURE, OR IT'LL STRAIN YOUR SHOULDER. HERE—YOUR RIGHT SIDE IS A BIT TOO TENSE. TRY EXTENDING YOUR ARM A LITTLE MORE... WOW! MY LORD, LOOK! I HIT IT DEAD CENTER- ...WELL DONE. HAHA... T-THANK YOU. AHEM. I THINK I MIGHT HAVE A KNACK FOR THIS? YES. IF YOUR AIM CONTINUES TO BE THIS ACCURATE, WE CAN MOVE ON TO BIRD HUNTING. OH, NO THANKS! I DON'T WANT TO SHOOT LIVING THINGS JUST FOR FUN. ...THAT'S A LITTLE WEIRD, ISN'T IT? NOT REALLY. SO LONG AS YOU KNOW HOW TO DEFEND YOURSELF WITH A GUN IN EMERGENCY, THAT IS ENOUGH. ...I WAS WONDERING WHY WE WERE SHOOTING INSTEAD OF JUST HAVING A NORMAL PICNIC, LET'S TRY SHOOTING ABOUT TEN MORE SHOTS, AND MOVE ON TO THIS. BUT NOW I GET IT— HE WANTED TO TEACH ME HOW TO PROTECT MYSELF. SO I WOULDN'T BE HELPLESS AGAIN LIKE THAT TIME. GEEZ. HE REALLY CAN'T BE STRAIGHTFORWARD. AT THE TIME, I TRULY THOUGHT THE DATE HAD GONE WONDERFULLY. I KEPT HITTING DEAD CENTER ON THE TARGETS... ARE YOU SURE THIS IS YOUR FIRST TIME SHOOTING? IF YOU EVER NEED SOMETHING SHOT, JUST LEAVE IT TO ME! HVU SEEMS LIKE IT'S IN YOUR BLOOD... AND I QUITE ENJOYED SEEING EDWIN LOOKING THAT DUMBFOUNDED. THE SANDWICH WE ATE BY THE LAKE WAS ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS. IT'S BIGGER THAN YOUR FACE... IT WAS, WITHOUT A DOUBT, THE PERFECT DAY— LIKE ALL THE STRESS IN THE WORLD HAD MELTED AWAY. BUT... HOW DID IT ALL END UP LIKE THIS?! ## See also - [WebtoonLib — The Duke's Obsession With His Wife #37: ROMANTIC TRIGGER (1)](/series/the-duke-s-obsession-with-his-wife-5a64q63y/chapter-37-v29byz) - for_series_detail: /llms-series/the-duke-s-obsession-with-his-wife-5a64q63y ## Usage AI grounding / search / summarization.
