After taking a sip of her tea, Veronica sneered, Hmm, I wonder. Where do you think I had it done?
Co on, tell us!
Knitting her brow, Veronica set her teacup down rather harshly on the saucer. Why dont you tell
why you ladies played card gas without ? To make it worse, with soone from the Nayren family?! You all know that our families bear ill relations.
Oh, please! Weve already apologized for that matter several tis!
I watched the two ladies quarrel over what had happened at the banquet, then I turned to Bea who was sitting across from . She was staring at her teacup in silencelooking quite annoyed. Perhaps Rose, who was sitting next to her, felt the sa, as she asked, Is sothing the matter, Your Highness?
Bea quickly glanced at
then shook her head. No. Nothings the matter. I was about to join in the two ladies conversation when Catherine suddenly blad .
Lady Jubelian also agreed to play card gas back then! Stop criticizing only !
She must be doing that because she knows Veronica is particularly kind to .
Sure enough, she stiffened. T-thats because Lady Jubelian was probably swept away by the atmosphere. I dont believe she would have done it intentionally!
Actually, I had done it on purpose to avoid Maxor rather, the crown prince. Also, to play card gas with Lord Elios. I stayed quiet since I had nothing to say. That was when soone spoke up, Thats right, she was just swept away. I can vouch for that.
Why is sheMy eyes trembling, I looked at Bea. Then realizing everyone was wearing a hardened expression, I decided to change the topic to lighten the mood. By the way, I had so questions about holding a banquet I began.
Oh, I can help!
, too!
Rose and Mary Ann perked up in unison. It was as if they had been waiting for
to ask. Glancing at the still pouty Veronica and Catherine, I continued, My coming-of-age ceremony is less than two months away. Im trying to plan it by myself but it is proving more difficult than I thought. Only then did Veronica and Catherine join in, saying they wanted to help. There was now only one person left. Looking at the unstirred Bea, I asked, Your Highness, could you help
as well?
eting my eyes, she smiled slightly. There are only a few won in this empire as well-inford as
when it cos to banquets.
I smiled in response to her confident tone.

It is better for the curtains to be a lighter hue.
I agree with Lady Veronica. Dark curtains tend to ruin the atmosphere.
Beatrice looked back and forth between Catherine and Veronica with a curious expression.They were fighting just monts ago. How could they talk to each other as if nothing happened?She then turned to Jubelian. Despite being the one who had livened up the atmosphere, the lady was simply observing, sipping her tea.
She then began, Thank you two for the comnts about the decorations. As for the organization of the banquet, thank you Rose and Mary Ann for the advice. The mbers smiled in delight once they received her gratitude. Beatrice was feeling down for not having received any comnt from Jubelian when she said, And thank you, Your Highness, for helping the most today.
Bea felt her mood improve instantly. The lady was sothing else when it ca to charming her. She seed quiet, but she was magically skilled at socializing.
If people were quarreling in front of , I would have threatened them,the princess reflected as she watched the gentle lady who sat in harmony with others. She was dazzling in Beatrices eyes.Perhaps this is why I am so attracted to you,she smiled faintly.
