Mary Scott and Mia Anderson were completely thrown off by Duke Blue's baffling behavior. They stood there dumbfounded, trying to figure out how this had escalated to being asked for autographs and photos, especially with that smugly condescending assistant.
Their stunned reaction was misinterpreted by Duke Blue, who assumed they were overjoyed to the point of speechlessness. Turning to his still-annoyed assistant, he commanded, "Get the pen."
The assistant scoffed, glaring disdainfully at the two women while rummaging for a pen, muttering under his breath, "Fanboying over our Young Master Duke but don't even have the sense to bring your own pen."
Mia, now fully back to her senses, was about to explain that neither of them were fans of Duke Blue, but Mary tugged on her arm, shaking her head. Without missing a beat, Mary pulled a notebook from her bag and politely said, "Sorry for the trouble, Young Master Duke."
