The Duke's Daughter.
Prologue
Ivy
This is definitely not what we expected.
Ivy
This case was supposed to be 5th level case not a 1st level.
Ivy
We better tell my father.
Cassius
But what will happen if we solved it.
Cassius
You can get your own title.
Ivy
Or you could buy it for me.
Cassius
Won't the rumors spread. We are from the high society where gossips are everything.
Ivy
Who would dare to spread rumour about me?
Ivy
They will get prisoned or get stripped away from their title.
Cassius
Do you believe your father so much?
Cassius
Didn't he promised your mother to not have any woman beside him after she dies.
Ivy
Shall we talk about this case?
Cassius
You are avoiding the problem instead of solving it.
Ivy
You are overexaggerating it.
Cassius
Pardon me for rudeness, the duchy princess but this wasn't what your younger self wanted to do.
Cassius
You are running from the problems instead of solving it. Aren't you tired.
Ivy
Mind your manners Marquis.
Ivy
I am treating you with respect because you are my father's trusted man.
Ivy
So stop bringing up the past.
Ivy
It's not going to do any help here.
Cassius
I am just saying that we should solve this case.
Cassius
You can even annul the engagement and let that damn woman live her life as a queen.
Ivy
This is enough marquis. You don't have any reason to interfere in my life.
Ivy
May I know the reason?
Cassius
*just stares into her eyes*
Ivy
You are wasting the time marquis.
Cassius
Why don't you annul your engagement? You know that the crown prince has gotten himself a mistress.
Cassius
Or do you want to be queen?
Nothing but Silence was heard.
Cassius
It's right, the duchy is rumored to be greedy. And it is true.
Cassius
Do you value something that can take your life?
Cassius
You are greedy for becoming a emperess. That is a seat where many would kill.
Ivy
You are right. I am greedy. But not for myself but for my loved ones.
Ivy
If I don't become the emperess my family would be in danger.
Cassius
What danger does the duchy have?
Ivy
Do you think that I like him?
Ivy
I have tried to annul it so many times.
Ivy
I even acted crazy. I even said I have a lover.
Ivy
I did so many things just to annul it.
Ivy
But the crown prince wanted to ascend the throne quickly.
Ivy
And because of my engagement with him it would be easier for him to control the army of northern region.
Ivy
Because of the illegitimate child of the current emperor's lover.
Ivy
That man is unknown, or could have died.
Ivy
But the crown prince has one weakness of mine that is keeping me away from crushing him.
Ivy
If that day would never happened I would have brought him in our castles dungeon and would have tortured him there.
Ivy
And about avoiding the problems and running away.
Ivy
I don't have any choice but to run away.
Ivy
I have suffered enough in my life.
Ivy
I don't want to suffer in future.
Ivy
Let those love birds live their own life.
Guards/Maids/Workers
We have found another body.
Cassius
Ivy, as your friend I am telling you. The killing will get even more worse if we just wait for your father to come here.
Ivy
Okay. We will solve the case.
Cassius
Finally, the lady has said yes.
Guards/Maids/Workers
Yes sir.

A knock was heard. The man inside said come in.
Ivy
Father, you called me.
Ivy
Father, I am not that low.
Ivy
Even the inspector can solve it.
Cain
Last time you got hurt.
Cain
You were on a death's door.
Cain
If it wasn't for Marquis to be with you, you would have died.
Cain
And your mother wouldn't wanted that.
Ivy
But, I would really hate it if you bring up mother.
Ivy
A sorry can't bring mother back.
Ivy
I would proceed with the case, but if I don't get any cases above 3rd level next time; I would agree with the engagement.
Cain
Not the crown prince.
Ivy
*stares into his eyes*
Cain
Fine, but at one condition.
Cain
The marquis will be there to assist you.
Cain
John, tell that irresponsible child to get ready.
Cain
We cannot let emperess overshadow the Waltons family.
