Didn't he just approved of her acquiring the title by calling her "comptesse"? As I like Zed, I'll try to blind myself and think that this is all staged as well for those that might have seen (aka the prince or the duke). I mean, the Duke would definitely underestimate our girl even more. And we knows that he won't feel the need to assassinate her if he doesn't see her as threats. (Also, they somehow did say goodbye for a while in previous panel so I guess right now is the moment between their reunion, and they both knows, HOPEFULLY)
