Lady Whistledown

Balls, Dreadful, Tiring but Enjoyable (If there is free food) Though I must say that I am Perplexed that Her Highness the Princess disappeared at The Crane Ball in Bridgerton house! Did the preparations perhaps Vex her.

Or is there just something more Serious going on?


Lady Bridgerton sat on the Sofa, She was Shocked, Surely their preparations weren't that bad. They've worked hard on that Ball, The Supporter being Sir Crane and Daphne 

" Why should Whistledown think that the Ball perhaps Vexed The Princess?" Hyacinth asks, Obviously confused "Might be because of the lack of Cheesecakes which she is very very fond with." Eloise says 

" Well we should invite her then!" Lady Bridgerton announces, All eyes were then on her "Whatever could you mean Mother?" Benedict asks, Lady Bridgerton clears her Throat "Well if she was disappointed with Yesterday's Ball, We should Apologize Yes?"

Everyone inside the room Mumbles, Lady Bridgerton sighs "Mrs. Wilson!" Lady Bridgerton calls, The Head Maid enters the Drawing Room "Yes My Lady?" 

" Please secure a Invitation for Her Highness."

Cassandra exited the Carriage to Bridgerton house, She fixed her dress and walked up the steps. The Doorman opened the door for her, Then she was greeted by Lady Bridgerton 

"Your Highness, Thank you for joining us Tonight." Lady Bridgerton says with a Curtsy "It is my Pleasure Lady Bridgerton"

" Come! The food might get Cold." Lady Bridgerton says leading her to the dining room. The Dining room was well lit, All of the Family was complete (Adding Simon and Sir Crane)

" Good Evening everyone." Cassandra greets "Ha, Ha. Good Evening, Sit here. Now." Eloise demands, The Brown haired Royal tried her best not to Laugh as she sat in Between Eloise and Colin 

" Now where is Your Brother?" Lady Bridgerton whispers to her Second Eldest "Which one?" Benedict asks taking a bite from his Baby Carrot "The Viscount, Where is he?" Lady Bridgerton says with a stern tone

" I do not know." Benedict admits, Lady Bridgerton groans quietly bit continues to have a Smile plastered onto her face "We can just eat, The Viscount will Surely join us later."

" I miss the Countryside truly." Eloise said with an sad tone, Daphne hums in agreement. Lady Bridgerton was already worried that Anthony may not attend, But she manages to keep her calm.

" I might leave as soon as possible after dinner, I have other matters to attend to." Cassandra announces, Lady Bridgerton quickly clears her Throat "Might you stay for dessert Your Highness? We have Cheese Cake with... Dark Chocolate Syrup"

" Ah My Favorite." Cassandra says with a Smile "I must tell you Lady Bridgerton, She might finish one Whole plate of that." Simon adds, Cassandra eyes him "I might?" 

Simon had a Chuckle, They've been pretty good friends. Too Good that everyone might see them as Siblings than Friends.

" Well I believe I shall wait for—" 

" Anthony!" Lady Bridgerton exclaims, All eyes turned to the Viscount, Home from whatever he was doing

" Family, Philip, Hastings. Your Highness" Anthony greets all of the people inside the room "Please, Sit." Lady Bridgerton offers, The Viscount nods and takes his seat on the head of the table 

" Now, May they please bring out the Cake, We would not want to keep her Highness waiting." Lady Bridgerton requests the servant and they nod quickly before exiting the Dining Room 

" Where have you been Brother?" Daphne asks Anthony "I... went to a club, I almost forgot that we have family dinner Tonight." The Viscount says. It was pretty Obvious that he Lying

" Hm... I see." Lady Bridgerton says taking a sip from her wine

After the Viscount's arrival, The room became quiet. Except for the munching and mumbling, Gosh it was so awkward.

Cassandra walked up the stairs to the drawing room, Just a little rest then she'll go. As she entered, there was no people. But the Fireplace was lit up, She then sat down on the Armchair near the Fireplace and rested.

After a few moments she sighed deeply "I thought you were leaving." A man's voice said, She turned to look and it was the Viscount  "I wished to rest."

" Ah..." He muttered out, He was about to leave when Cassandra wanted to say something "Might you stay for a while? I wish with someone to talk with."

He nods and just enters the Drawing room, Cassandra looks at the fire for a moment before standing up "Why are you avoiding me." She asks with a demanding tone, Anthony scoffs "I thought we are not to apprise this Conversation anymore?"

" It would have if you have just given me an answer earlier!" 

The Viscount pinches the Bridge of his nose and exhales irritated. "Please leave."

" Can you just Please give me an answer—Answer me!" Cassandra shouts, The Viscount pressed his lips together

" I fear that I may do something to you, You are a Woman— A Royal of Great Honor and Value."

" And what is that fear?" Cassandra asks, His answer frankly piqued her Interest 

" Goodnight Your Highness."

Anthony leaves the room, She scoffs and put both her hands onto her head "Your Highness, The Carriage is here." One of the Servants announces. Cassandra nods and fixes herself as she left the room
