Byron White's Fiancée Lives in Sigil City

"No, it's called Green Meadow Estate."

"Oh!" Grace nodded. "Just the name sounds lovely! I want to eat salt and pepper ribs—do they have that there?"

What a country bumpkin!

Byron White laughed, "They do. Whatever you want to eat, they can make it there."

"Alliance Leader, you're so good to me..." Grace gazed at him, blushing shyly.

Byron White tugged at the corner of his mouth.

The road there wasn't short.

Grace pretended to doze off, slipped into her space, and took out her Messenger Charm to contact Shannon.

"Shannon, Shannon, have you heard of a place called 'Green Meadow Estate'?"

"Green Meadow Estate? Of course I know! That's one of our White family's villas."

"Oh... So there really is such a place..."

"My cousin, the Emperor Tuoba, and the General are all heading there!" Shannon added. "Why are you asking about this?"

Grace's eyes narrowed. "You're all heading there? What for?"

"It's my mother's arrangement. She asked my cousin and me to accompany them for a little excursion."

Byron White was taking her there.

Xiao Yan was heading there too...

Grace blinked and suddenly asked, "Shannon, Byron White's fiancée lives in Sigil City, right?"

"Mm-hmm, her family lives right here."

Grace said, "I want to ask you for a favor..."

...

Green Meadow Estate truly deserves its reputation as a royal villa—it's more beautiful and brimming with spiritual energy than any estate Grace has ever seen.

Grace was in awe the whole way there, absolutely delighted.

Byron White saw her looking so amazed, a smug smile flickered in his eyes as he led her to the dining area.

The place was wonderful, set on a rooftop terrace with stunning views in every direction.

The food here was just as amazing—absolutely delicious.

Grace ate to her heart's content.

When the dishes were cleared, the busboy subtly shot Byron White a look.

That look meant: They've arrived.

There were two staircases leading up to the terrace from inside the house, one going up and one going down.

Outside the terrace, there was another staircase covered in flowering vines, leading straight to the ground.

Xiao Yan and the others had already reached the bottom of the terrace.

Byron White smiled gently and asked Grace, "What do you think of this place?"

"It's wonderful!" Grace said. "It's the best estate I've ever seen!"

"If your family could move to Sigil City, I’d ask my father and mother to grant this place to you."

Grace lowered her eyes and fell silent again.

"Grace," Byron White called out tenderly, "I really like you. Will you come to me?"

"Alliance Leader, I heard... you have a fiancée," Grace said.

Byron White frowned—who told her that?

"I, Grace Zhu, may be from a small town, but I have the Five Elements Celestial Root, and my family is a local noble house. My parents would never let me be anyone’s concubine."

Byron White said, "I do have a fiancée, in name only. But it was arranged by my mother—I don’t love her at all! If you agree to marry me, I’ll tell my mother right away and break off the engagement!"

"Really?" Grace asked. "You don't like her?"

"Not at all! I've never loved any woman—until I met you, I finally understood what it means to feel love." Byron White looked utterly sincere.

"Then... would you really break off the engagement with her?" Grace looked genuinely moved.

"Of course! As long as you say yes, I'll go talk to my mother today and end it!"

Grace was silent for a moment, then asked, "What kind of person is she?"

"She... is pretty spoiled, and honestly, just average-looking. To me, she can't even compare to a single strand of your hair!" Byron White's sweet talk came easily.

Grace smiled.
