The Emperor's eyes narrowed and turned his attention to duo's father as he sees a small twinge of pain course through his daughters face. Clara bit the inside of her cheek did he really have to say it like that she thought before anger coursed through her. The Emperor watched his daughter carefully what was she up to "Yes I see your point my dear but he could be more civil" he said his voice trailing off. Clara stood her ground hearing her fathers words she leaned back a bit so Duo could hear her whisper "Just trust me" she said as a smile crossed her dark lips. "Father what would you say to a trial before marriage so that we may get to know one another and if he does not wish to marry me by that time I will marry the man of your choice" her voice rang clear and strong. Her fathers eyes narrowed "I'll agree only if the father and son agree as well and of course a condition that he not bruise the petals of my daughter" he said his icy eyes on Duo. Clara's cheeks became a bright hue of red and pink. "Father!" she scolded.</span></div>
