Lady Sophia consciously stood up with her heart racing, it was an entirely new development for the crown prince to ask about her. He didn't just barge into the tearoom but he requested her presence outside of it.
As she walked towards him, she wondered what everyone must be thinking right now, especially lady Mitchell was had been confident that the prince was going to pick her. She didn't have to say it, but lady Sophia could read her expression clearly, she saw how expectant she looked when the prince made mention of taking a lady out. But guess the prince spoiled her plan after all, with that thought in mind Lady Sophia head rose higher as she walked towards the crown prince.
"Thank you mother, Grandma and my duchesses." The prince thanked them and took a glance at the lady beside him.
