Emma laughed coldly, stopped in her tracks, turned around, and looked at her. “That’s an odd thing to say, my dear sister. Why should I turn away?”Normally, Naomi was very concerned about her status, and even though she despised Emma, she usually just made sarcastic remarks here and there. Today, she seemed to have a strong desire to harm, as if something provoked her.Naomi sneered and said, “First, congratulations, you will quickly rise to greater heights, and your future as the third prince’s chief consort seems very promising. You are indeed very talented.”Emma looked coldly at her and said, “Dear sister, what can you do other than gossip?”The smile faded from Naomi’s face, her hands clenched into fists, and she glared at Emma, gritting her teeth. “Don’t think I don’t know what you’re up to. Remember, you’re just a concubine’s daughter. Don’t think you can climb to the position of the third prince’s chief consort. At most, you’ll be a minor concubine. By then...”Emma stared at
That little cat was entirely snow white, with amber-colored eyes; its precious breed was immediately apparent. Emma suspected it belonged to a noble. She was about to instruct someone to let the cat go when a young palace maid entered. “Oh my, Pam, I finally found you! You’ve had me searching everywhere!” She hugged the little cat, and upon seeing Emma and the others, she put on a cheerful face and said, “Duchess, this is Luna Daisy’s cat. She’s been looking for it everywhere, and it turns out it’s here with you.”Emma remained pensive for a moment, then said, “Very well, please give me a moment to freshen up.”The palace maid smiled and said, “There’s no need. Luna Daisy is still waiting.”Emma rose and said, “In that case, please lead the way.”Standing in front of Luna Daisy’s tent, Emma paused. A female official stood at the entrance, and upon seeing Emma, she looked at her with a cold, scrutinizing gaze for a moment before finally saying, “Her Highness is waiting. Please come in.
Although she felt the annoyance deep within, she smiled on her face and said, “Your Highness, I hope Your Highness can remind Luna Daisy that not everyone in this world will be caught and made into something.”“You...” Edward suddenly paused.He had never thought of marrying Seventh Prince, and the misunderstanding must have arisen from something he said in front of Luna Daisy. Generally, in front of nobility, she was just an object, easily deciding her fate, and she had to show gratitude. It was truly absurd! No matter how frustrated she felt, Emma remained cold on her knees, saying, “The humble servant withdraws.”Edward was taken aback for a moment, and a warm and gentle smile faded from his lips.Late at night, Chief Commander of the Forbidden Army, Samuel, received a surprising order. He said, “What? The Princess Consort wants to kill her?”The female official whispered, “Don’t be so loud. Be careful not to spread rumors within the palace.”Samuel paced back and forth, then stopp
Here is the English translation of the provided text:“Few can resist such a gaze,” Emma sighed, watching as more than half the audience left. She continued to stay in her place, fearing that drawing attention to herself would only make things worse. Everyone had gone, so maybe it was time for her to socialize.Thinking about it, she stood up, and the Seventh Princess was elated as she ran forward, voicing her complaint, “You’re too slow!”Anyone else might have ignored a princess who acted like this, but the Seventh Princess appeared carefree. She was undoubtedly beloved by the Lycan King, but her personality was a far cry from what Emma deemed appropriate.Leaving the campsite, Emma gazed at the vast grassland and felt a sense of freedom she had never experienced before. It was this sense of freedom that made her like this place.“Look! Look!” the Seventh Princess suddenly ran up, holding up her dress to show Emma.Emma glanced over, seeing a pile of large, plump mushrooms lying on
The Seventh Princess stood up, witnessing this scene, and let out a loud cry. She cried while pushing others away, rushing towards Emma. The other ladies-in-waiting followed closely behind, a rare sight indeed. Just then, the lady who had initially left, leading Edward back, hurriedly urged her horse forward. Edward, without a second thought, galloped over, arriving at Emma’s side and clinging her horse’s reins.He thought Emma was injured. He had only left for a moment. How could this happen? But then, Emma was helped to her feet by Carol, holding her head as if she had been injured. Edward swiftly embraced her, his heart trembling. Overjoyed, he asked, “Are you alright?”The Seventh Princess sobbed, her eyes still watery. She had clearly been terrified and clung to Emma’s hand without saying a word. It was her capriciousness that had caused Emma to fall from her horse. She had advised the Seventh Princess not to ride, yet the Seventh Princess had ignored her advice.Emma gently patt
Emma noticed his strange expression, stood up with no panic, and turned around to greet him gracefully, saying, “Your Royal Highness, Third Prince, no offense intended. I was startled and saw you approach suddenly. I stumbled, and my hands and feet were clumsy. I accidentally touched you. However, it’s too late now, and it’s not appropriate for you to stay in the tent. Please leave quickly.”Her expression showed no warmth, only a subtle coldness, as if she wanted to push others away miles apart. Alpha Jeffn found it unnerving. It seemed like she was belittling him, which only fueled his desire to possess this woman. “I just came to visit you; there’s nothing more to it.”Emma’s eyes suddenly lit up, and a bitter smile appeared on her lips. “Your Royal Highness, please leave. This doesn’t fit the decorum.”Alpha Jeffn gave Emma a cold, piercing look and took her arm, speaking in a deep voice, “Those things mean nothing to me, Emma. You shouldn’t force me to use more assertive methods
Emma raised her eyebrows, and it was Naomi with her haughty expression.When Naomi noticed her gaze, her heart raced, and she instinctively said, “Only a kite startles the horse; no need to boast about such a small matter!”Emma lowered her eyes, recalling that Naomi had been present at the scene when the incident occurred. There couldn’t be such a coincidence unless she had something to do with it. Nevertheless, that servant girl wouldn’t have had the skill to orchestrate this. Emma pondered for a moment and then suddenly stood up, smiling as she said, “Yesterday, I saw the way you wielded the whip to urge the horse, my dear cousin, and it was exceptional. I wonder if you’re up for a little competition today?”Naomi let out a cold laugh. “Afraid you are?”“Emma, do you want to embarrass yourself? I’ll grant your wish!” Naomi sneered, confident, like a beautiful falcon.Miss Monami clapped her hands. “Excellent, excellent! I love watching horse riding competitions. I’ll be the referee
“Carol, present your treasure to the Seventh Prince,” Emma gestured.Carol approached Emma with a stony face and retrieved a bronze mirror from within her clothes, and Edward quickly understood.“I asked Carol to pay attention to the surroundings. When that person shot the arrow, she signaled me,” Emma explained simply. Many complex details, such as how Carol had detected Samuel, how she had chosen the perfect moment, and how they had communicated, remained unspoken, but Edward still understood.It was all part of a carefully orchestrated plan.Emma invited Naomi to the horse race, but in reality, she had intended for Naomi to die in her place.Edward asked, puzzled, “Why did you choose Naomi? From what I know, you are ruthless and wouldn’t spare the innocent.”Emma chuckled and replied, “Some people have been noticing Luna Meria and Naomi coming to Luna Daisy’s camp the past few days. They wondered why they were so concerned about me. I thought I should repay their kindness in some w
