It's already been two days since Queens last visit

Don't tell me he's holding himself back?

Whatever.

Rashta won't be attending this one so I don't know what Prince Heinley will be doing.

I just hope he doesn't make a scene this time now that Rashta isn't around to trick him

"Are you waiting for Queen,your majesty?It's time you get ready"

A special banquet is held for very important guests on the last day of the new years celebration

As the members continuously change,a dinner is held the night previous so we can familiarize ourselves with their faces

I checked the checklist of guests and seating arrangements and I realized I'm seating exactly where Rashta was sitting in the original

Great.

Just at the right of that bastard and infront of Heinley

Please don't let him do what I'm thinking

"I'm always so grateful to you,Countess Eliza"

"The honor is mine"

Thanks to Countess Eliza's preparations, my straight hair was styled in waves and my pale complexion looked rosy. With her assistance, I slipped into the dress and studied myself in the mirror, then left for the eastern palace.

It seems that I will finally get to meet Grand Duke Kaufman

He will be a bit difficult to deal with but it's still worth it

I've seen the illustrations of him where he looked really good in them and I'm certain he will look even more handsome in person

I wonder if he will still fall in love with me even without the love potion?

Still,I need to get closer to him if I want more fun in this lifetime

It's gonna be so much fun with more characters around

I finally arrived at the dining room and I was relieved no one was there to greet me

Rashta made a fuss again about not getting to attend so I had to give her things to keep her busy in her room.

I'm glad she's not on the way but it is quite exhausting to look after her

Now I understand what that prick means when she's not a calming presence

Eww

I took my seat and I glanced at the empty chairs beside and infront of me

Soon, they'll be sitting there

Well...

For the first time...I am hoping no drama happens

A moment later, Prince Heinley, the douchebag and Princess Soju entered the dining room. Princess Soju looked at me as if to say, 'What's wrong?' but I shook my head and went towards my seat. Prince Heinley said hello to me, and I gave him a smile. I could feel Princess Soju's eyes in my direction, but I didn't acknowledge it and took my seat. It was only after a servant poured water into my glass that Prince Heinley spoke to me again.

"My queen,I must say,you look splendid in the color red.Is red your favorite color?"

He's actually doing this with so many people

And infront of him too

He's actually following the plotline but this time,he's doing it to me

I cleared my throat before I spoke
