Chapter 871

Aurelia’s face burned as she stood there in shame.Carmella got up and around the long table to slowly make her way to Aurelia. She pointed at one of the garments and told her, “This is one of the gold-couching techniques. The raw material for the gold thread used here comes from a neighboring country of Southeast Aciatic. The annual yield isn’t a lot, so it’s very precious. The thread is soft and fragile, not having much flexibility, so one has to be exceptionally careful when embroidering to be able to keep the thread whole."Aurelia had heard about this, but this was her first time seeing it.“This style has high requirements for one’s needlework techniques.” Carmella looked at her calmly. “This robe alone took five to six months and the collaboration of several veteran artisans."Aurelia bit her lips and stayed quiet.“Ms. Aurelia, I’m not doubting your ability,” Carmella said softly. “But sometimes, whether a person can accomplish something doesn’t depend on their ability but

Aurelia bit her lips, her beautiful amber eyes filled with resolution."Ms. Aurelia, have you made up your mind?"Carmella was confident.The sum of money in the envelope was enough for her to live a good life for quite some time, and a Southeast Aciatic passport was the dream of many. The girl would have both of these. What was there for her to say no to?It thus surprised Carmella that Aurelia scoffed. Her unaffected gaze was slightly disdainful. "Do you think I see uncle as a transaction tool like you all?"Carmella knitted her brows in alarm. "What did you say?"Aurelia picked up the envelope and uttered each word seriously, "As long as I agree to your conditions, I'll receive money and official Southeast Aciatic citizenship! You're right. I need both of these. But I'll work for what I need. I won't exchange Neil for them!""You…""Your Majesty, pardon my impoliteness." Aurelia bowed and looked up straight into her eyes. "But I want to tell you that you won't be able to sto

The palace guard noticed Alexander and quickly straightened up to bow."Your Highness!"Carmella took a pause before she slowly opened her resting eyes. Alexander was already standing before her with hands on his sides as he greeted her respectfully, "Good morning, Auntie.""It's not morning anymore." Carmella smiled. "I heard you young people like having, what's it called… brunch? Hah, I have some light food with me here. Treat it as brunch. Come have something to eat!""Thank you, Auntie. I'm not hungry." Alexander quietly looked around with an alert expression but did not see Aurelia at all."Alexander, what are you looking for?""Nothing…""Are you looking for someone?"Alexander froze and hesitated for a moment before he replied honestly, "I heard that you asked Aurelia over. I have a few robes that I need her help with too. I wonder if she's done with you here.""She is." Carmella took a sip of tea nonchalantly. "But I've already sent her back.""Sent her back?"Alexan

Had Aurelia really left then?"Alexander, since we're at this point, I might as well let you know." Carmella heaved a long sigh. "I do want to pair your sister up with Neil, and I hope Aurelia's able to leave Southeast Aciatic on her own accord, but the girl didn't agree to it. I can't possibly force her, can I?"Don't worry. I know what I should and shouldn't do. It's not worth it to offend the Harris family over Aurelia!"Alexander looked skeptical but nodded.Carmella waved a hand to dismiss him, and her brows knitted into a frown after she calmed down.Where had Aurelia gone? Did she run into someone else after she left her place?Carmella's heart pounded as a name flashed in her mind."Call for Princess Victoria!" she asked loudly.…Aurelia curled up in the corner of the wall. The only feeling this place gave her was cold.White walls, white room, a white rug, and even the window frames were white. This was like a world of ice.Southeast Aciatic was a sweltering summer

Helen was gone in the blink of an eye. Aurelia stayed in the corner quietly as she stroked the thin blanket on herself and felt warmth gush into her heart.She had often chatted with her nomad neighbors back in Melorian in the past.The nomads loved fortune-telling and all things supernatural. They said that destiny and fate among people were just that, something that was beyond scientific understanding or the laws of nature.Meeting for the first time, some people felt as if they were old friends, and some people felt annoyed by each other.It was just like how Aurelia felt about Carmella and Helene. She did not like Carmella even though she was a queen. While Helene had wounded her, she subconsciously defended her—Princess Lene was only muddle-headed and did not hurt others intentionally…Aurelia sighed and was occupied with ways to escape.Carmella had actually let her leave the palace, but just as she left the queen's palace, she met Victoria coming over with her people. She

Zephyr smirked mysteriously. "He wants to keep her there for assistance."Cordelia paused before figuring it out after a while.Last time, Rowan had mentioned that someone would definitely fail to hold themselves back and want to kill Helene, yet he could not always be there to keep watch.Now that Aurelia was there, she was like a spy. She was smart and quick-witted, so she could work together with Rowan. If someone really wanted to harm Helene, they could discover it in time and do something as soon as possible."Dad's brilliant, huh!" Cordelia chuckled but was still worried. "Is Aurelia willing to do it, though?""I remember that Aurelia stayed in the hotel Neil stayed in for some time back in Melorian and was a neighbor with mom and dad, right? They had a good impression of her then, and you're kind to her. She's a grateful girl, so she agreed right away.""But Princess Lene's illness… I'm really afraid that she'll hurt Aurelia again.""Speaking of which, it's kind of strang

Zephyr smiled. Janine would never tell him whatever good news she had, as she always called Cordelia for it.To Janine, her daughter-in-law was her own child, while she must have picked up her son from the street.Zephyr knew his mother well too. Her good news was nothing more than their company stock price rising, their rival's stock price plummeting, or her business empire expanding, her sore thumb of an enemy being eliminated…In spite of it, Janine's sudden voice swiftly blanked Zephyr's mind for several seconds."I have a boyfriend… and I want you to meet him!""What!?"Zephyr shoved himself over immediately. If Cordelia had not been fast with her hands, he would have knocked his head on the phone screen."Mom, what did you say? You got a boyfriend? For real?"Cordelia kept shooting him looks to stop him from behaving so dramatically, but how could she understand his feelings as a son about his mother…Zephyr was not a pedantic person. Even when his parents' divorce had h

It was difficult to make the willful man admit his fragility, but his reaction was evidence that Cordelia was right.After a stretched moment of silence, Zephyr finally spoke up. "Yes, honey…"Cordelia stroked his face adoringly."My parents are good to me after their divorce, both families are, but there's still a knot in my heart."Aunt Cloud sees me as her own, but when I see her, Zennie, and dad together sometimes, I feel like they're a family of three, and I'm only an outsider."And mom's going to have her own family now too…"Zephyr smiled and let out a self-deprecating chuckle. He snapped back to himself briefly and looked at Cordelia to ask in worry, "Do you think I'm being petty?"Cordelia curled up in his arms. Her warmth and sweet fragrance were the one and only antidote in the world that slowly calmed Zephyr down."Silly." Her soft voice rang in his ear. "This isn't being petty. This is only human."Zephyr's heart clenched."Darling, why would you be left behind?

Although they had not met much, Zuko was not shy and spread his chubby arms to go to his grandmother.Janine, who was known to be tough as steel, melted over the little boy. She kissed his cheek and carefully carried him to the car, placing him in the baby car seat.After Zuko was settled in, Janine was going to get into the car from the other side when she felt someone yank her from the back."What?" She looked at her son in confusion.Zephyr was all smiles as he quietly told his mother his idea, "I'll leave Zuko at home for the next two days and take Cordelia around other places in Eropah!""Huh?""Mom, help me out!" Zephyr shot her a look. "Hold this little drag back, and don't let him get to Cordelia!"One sentence was all it took to enrage Janine.Janine then hit Zephyr on the head."You brat!" Janine glared at him. "Are you even literate? That's your son! Do you know what a drag is, and you call him that!?""I know…" Zephyr chuckled dryly. "I'm just analogizing!""Well

Cordelia looked out the window and asked, "Mom, this doesn't seem like the way home…""We're not going home yet. I'll take you for some food first!""Food?" Realization struck Cordelia, and she leaned forward with a smirk. "Is it a treat from my mother-in-law or my future father-in-law?""You child!" Janine giggled happily. "You're teasing me now, huh!?""Mom, what's he like? I'm curious."Janine looked at her and held her hand softly, keeping it a secret for now.They came to a stop at Baker Hotel shortly.As one of the iconic buildings in Melorian, Baker Hotel was well equipped with the conditions for success. Not only was it luxurious and grand on the exterior, but its service could also hardly be topped by other hotels.The building was cleared for Mr. and Mrs. Hamerton today, and the general manager welcomed them personally."Madam Baker, everything's set. It's at the revolving restaurant on the top floor.""Mm." Janine was happy with the setup. "Is Mr. Bond here already
