Hearing the woman's screams and the mention of 'Her Grace', General Dion finally realized his mistake and hastily lowered his sword again. From start to finish, the girl who had been threatened just smiled gently while looking at them. The girl stopped as her maid was about to put on her body for her. Furthermore, the girl even introduced herself respectfully to Princess Elle.“Sorry if I startled you, Your Highness. Then, please forgive my maid's disrespect as well. I, Duchess Alison, greet Her Highness, Princess Elle. May health and prosperity always be with you.”Princess Elle was completely shocked when she realized that this beautiful girl in front of her was someone Raoul always talked about in his spare time. Even if Ariana was currently wearing simple clothes, Princess Elle still couldn't stop admiring the girl's beauty and strength. Ariana should have an age that is not much different from Princess Elle. However, both her appearance and demeanor looked very different from Pri
“Your Majesty, please wait for me!”Even as General Dion called out behind her, Princess Elle still didn't stop running until she was far enough from where Ariana was. The princess only stopped when she finally reached a fairly quiet place. Princess Elle's vision blurred, when she realized that she had actually been crying along the way.The whole time, Princess Elle was actually aware that Raoul had never looked at her as a romantic partner. Even if they had a rough time together, then danced amidst a glittering party, Princess Elle always knew that Raoul's thoughts were only on Ariana.Previously, Princess Elle had confidently said that she would stay by Raoul's side until the king could accept her love. But when Princess Elle saw her love rival in person, the girl immediately knew that she had no chance of winning against Ariana. Ariana was probably trying to appear to have no feelings toward Raoul. However, the look in her eyes still couldn't lie. Ariana clearly cared about Raoul.
After Princess Elle ran away from Ariana just like that, Duchess Alison spent the rest of the day thinking about what the princess had said to her. Even Marquis Curtis had said the same thing to Ariana before. People wanted Ariana to open her heart to Raoul, so she could see how sincerely the king had loved her all along.Indeed, Ariana needs a partner as soon as possible. But the fear that she'd screw things up by marrying Raoul made Ariana rethink everything. The girl had been daydreaming all day. And even if she sleeps, the girl can't get a good night's sleep.On that day, Ariana dreamed of something she had forgotten even in her previous life. She dreams about her childhood life. In the dream, she returns to being an eleven-year-old Ariana who doesn't know much. At that time, she had just lost both of her parents and was forced to live with her grandfather in the main residence of the Alison family.For Ariana, who was used to being spoiled by her parents, Duke Andrew was too stri
When Ariana woke up again, the girl immediately sat and pondered for quite a long time. Ariana never thought that there was another reason behind her fall in the pool behind her residence. Ariana never knew that she had fallen in love with Raoul first, and not Emilio, as she had always thought. Her feelings for Raoul were even stronger because, at that time, only Raoul had truly comforted her during her difficult time.Ariana subconsciously smiled bitterly. The girl had no idea that Raoul would still be the same good man even after he grew up. At that time, Ariana was still too young to realize that Raoul was completely innocent and was only trying to protect her. But now she knew, and her feelings suddenly became complicated about the king.After obtaining the last fragment of memory that she couldn't get in her previous world, Ariana finally realized how important her position was in Raoul's heart. Her heart felt like it was being stabbed by a thousand needles, as she recalled Emili
Along the way, Raoul was so nervous like seeing Ariana was a big deal. After they were almost out of touch due to their busy schedules, Raoul was afraid that Ariana would feel awkward if they suddenly met. However, Marquis Curtis had assured him that Ariana would not be angry even if Raoul came without making an appointment beforehand. That point alone proved that Ariana did have a soft spot for the king.“Your Majesty, we have arrived.”Raoul's heart skipped a beat when Captain Allen informed him that they had managed to enter the gates of Alison's residence with ease. Ariana really made it easy for him. Raoul's ears slowly turned red, as he felt ashamed of his thoughts.As soon as Raoul got off his horse carriage, the man saw that Ariana was also ready to go somewhere in her carriage. The king suddenly felt he couldn't say anything. His spirits dropped drastically when Raoul felt that his visit to Ariana was actually disturbing the girl's activities.“Aria, I ….”Raoul was at a loss
“Wow ….”When Princess Elle saw the wedding preparations between Ariana and Raoul, the princess could no longer hold back her admiration for it. Perhaps because it was a wedding that everyone expected, almost the entire population of the Sigmund Kingdom joined in celebrating the happy day. A festival was held in all areas of the Sigmund Kingdom. Almost everywhere Princess Elle went, she would see the excitement of the festival to welcome their king's wedding.“Seeing this crowd, I'm grateful we didn't go home before hearing the news of this wedding. With this crowd, we might be late for their wedding if we decide to return to the Orvel Kingdom first.”General Dion watched as Princess Elle smiled while observing the excitement of the surrounding festival. The man remembered Princess Elle, who was still crying over Raoul a few months ago, then spoke to the princess in a gloomy tone.“You are no longer sad about this, Princess?” asked General Dion worriedly. This time, Princess Elle gave
When Ariana finally arrived at the garden behind her house, she could see that Princess Elle had been sitting on one of the chairs she prepared, with General Dion standing behind her. When Princess Elle noticed Ariana's arrival, the princess immediately stood up to welcome the future queen of the Sigmund Kingdom.“Greetings, Duchess Alison. I hope I didn't bother you by coming today.”After their awkward parting a few months ago, Ariana was a little relieved when she saw that Princess Elle seemed to have forgotten about the incident. Ariana also gave formal greetings to the princess. The woman bowed gracefully, then returned the greeting from Princess Elle.“Long time no see, Your Highness. It is an honor for me to welcome you into my residence.”Princess Elle smiled after she heard Ariana's greeting. “I hope you're not being too formal with me, Duchess Alison. After all, you'll soon be Queen of the Kingdom of Sigmund,” she said cheerfully. But in the next second, she slightly regrett
Soon, King Raoul's waiting time was finally over. After months of both having been busy preparing for the wedding, the wedding day that everyone has been waiting for has finally arrived.At the age of 22, Ariana finally married Raoul, who was two years older than herself. Their wedding ceremony will be held at the royal palace, which will be followed by a big party in the evening.Since the early hours of the morning, Ariana has been awakened to receive pre-wedding care. The future queen soaks in scented water, then is dressed by dozens of maids. Everyone moved carefully that day. And since the time to dress the future queen would take so long, Ariana was finally allowed to go back to sleep while everyone else was busy getting her dressed.When Ariana woke up again, Carla immediately led her to wear the wedding dress Ariana and Raoul had chosen. The beautiful dress fits Ariana's body so well, and her beauty shines even more when she wears the beautiful dress.After Ariana was ready wi
