"I'm just homesick."
Ezekiel stopped as a result, but his brows furrowed in disbelief. She cried because she missed home?
Wait a moment…
The man began to notice something strange. He turned to the woman and looked at her deeply. When he thought back… none of Ezra's family had tried to contact her or visit her in the palace.
But wasn't this girl the youngest daughter of the Beryl family, as well as a Saintess?
Shouldn't she be the pride of the family?
As soon as he thought about it like that, other oddities emerged. If she was such an important person in her family, there was no way the Beryl Family would allow her to be adopted by the Emperor, right? Then…
“We can visit your household after the wedding. Or… we can take the time to visit before the wedding,” said Ezekiel.
"Are yo
“Mmmmmmm… I… aahhh… It's so beautiful…” Ezra clenched her fists with enthusiasm and joy at seeing her figure in the mirror. The white dress that was so luxurious and beautiful fit her body perfectly. Her lips curled up sweetly, and she turned around.Ezekiel was sitting on the sofa behind her, staring at her while massaging his temples.When Ezra turned to him, her long hair tied in a ponytail parted forward.She put her hands on her hips. “You have something to say, Your Highness?”Ezra's question made Ezekiel furrow his brows. The woman said she wanted to meet him in her room, but when he entered, the boutique staff had already filled the woman's room. Apparently, the fitting of Ezra's wedding dress had been completed."The dress looks beautiful," said Ezekiel flatly, giving up.Instantly, a row of white t
Penelope walked down the long hallway of Duke Diamond's capital residence. Her heart was pounding–she thought she had to go East to visit Celine, but she was glad that her best friend had already arrived in the capital.She walked over to Celine's room door and hoped to see her right away, like when they were kids.But…"What do you mean she doesn't want to see me?" asked Penelope in surprise when she heard the words of a maid who barred her from entering Celine's room. “I am Celine's best friend!”“Looks like you're the only one who thinks that friendship exists. Young Lady doesn't want to see anyone."Penelope furrowed her brows in anger.“I don't want a maid like you to say anything on Celine's behalf. If she really doesn't want friendship with me, then I want to hear it from her own mouth! Get out of the way!”
A damp wind blows. The autumn sun was shining faintly covered by thin clouds in the sky. Ezra was sitting smoking in the front row of the church pews, looking at the statue of Andrius that stood in the middle.Her black soulless eyes looked dim and cold. Her memories revolved around memories of a distant past, but they could not be forgotten.FUUUUUU…She exhaled the smoke slowly.“This time… everything is different, huh?” Ezra muttered quietly. “Everything was because of the women named Cecilia Morganite and Harriet Goldlane…”Ezra took another puff of her cigarette.“And suddenly that woman appeared after 15 years of disappearance, right after Cecilia Morganite's death. Heh," Ezra snorted in disgust.The woman stood up, walked over to the statue of God and pressed the butt of her still-
Gasp!Wow…They look so good together…!The guests gasped at the appearance of the party host, Ezra Beryl and her fiancé, the Crown Prince, appearing hand in hand.Both wore matching clothes, with azure accents that were so soft it was almost like the dawn itself. The two's eyes were both black and their hair colour looked similar, making them look more like siblings than fiancés.No.People said when two people were a match made in heaven, they would have a similar appearance. That's what Ezekiel and Ezra looked like now.As the two of them spoke their opening words and invited the audience to start enjoying the party, suddenly a servant announced the arrival of important guests.The pair of guests that everyone had been waiting for, the stars of the month's last and most shocking news&hel
"I never thought you are more of a bitch than I am."Ezra's blank stare involuntarily made the hairs on Cecilia's neck stand up. She was indeed the Villainess that angered the thousands who read [The Crown's Diamond] novel.With her rude behaviour that often recklessly dismissed the rules, her thug attitude that she only showed when she threatened people she found annoying, and a venomous mouth that could hurt someone's heart from thousands of miles away.Ezra Beryl, the fake Saintess.“Even though I am a bastard's daughter, I still know that something like this is not right. Miss Diamond, why are you being so unreasonable?” asked Ezra coldly.“Miss Zircon was indeed your best friend when you were both young. If something happened while you were missing that made you forget that fact, you still have no right to do this to an honourable woman like Miss Zircon."
Ezra's series of curses made everyone shut their mouths. The Empress-to-be had just cursed, but to be honest, what was even more shocking was what Celine Diamond said previously.How could Celine, the daughter of a Duke express her opinion that Sorcery was art created by gods meant for an unknown heavenly reason? It was absolutely outrageous. People could even assume it as Celine Diamond was publicly trying to defend Sorcery."Celine Diamond."Ezra, who was still pointing her finger at Celine, had lost control of her emotions.“How in the hell could you ask such a stupid thing? Do you even know what Sorcery can do to mortal beings?”Ezra lifted her face and looked down at Celine, taking a deep breath.“It was a kind of forbidden art that would corrupt and eat away at your soul, destroying any reason and common sense you had. Sorcery would ta
SLAP!With one harsh move, Ethan dragged Ezra back and slapped her hard on the face. The guests gasped, and their faces turned pale. The future Empress had just received a hard slap in front of everyone.“What did you just say? How dare you accuse my sister of being a Sorc–”FLASH!A blue aura exploded—creating a tornado that glowed like one frozen blue dawn. When Ethan came to his senses, he was already drowned in that aura, shocked to see Ezekiel had strangled him by the neck and lifted him into the air.Ethan gripped Ezekiel's arm that was choking him like a rampaging monster. He gritted his teeth in anger and fear.“Let go of me, Ezekiel Euclase!”Ethan could feel how hot the blue <Aura> fire was, exploding from Ezekiel's body. It had been a long time since people had seen the prowess of the E
