chapter 12 : Get annoyed with his attention

Why does he irritate me so much? mad Crystelle.

"Who?" princess Larissa wonders as she sips her tea.

"That first prince!" Crystelle exclaims.

He suddenly became gentle and tried to seduce me with that face of his! "You know I am weak about these things!" complained Crystelle.

Princess Larissa raised her eyebrow.

Take it easy, sister Elle. I don't get you. Isn't this what you were looking for? You said so before; you want to monopolize his heart, and now you easily get it, so what's the problem here? Ask Princess Larissa; she doesn't understand.

Crystelle sigh. "I know... but..."

Sister Elle! "I heard that you are here!" shouted Atter while opening the door as wide as possible.

Crystelle and Princess Larissa were shocked by his action.

Bang!

Crystelle and the other person in the princess's chamber both freeze in their tracks.

Larissa just knocked down her cup of tea! 'That angel, Larissa!?' Crystelle exclaimed in her head.

"How many times do I have to say that to you to be a proper prince? Where are your manners?! Even if it's just sister Elle, she's still a visitor!" mad princess Larissa.

Crystelle stunned. This is her first time seeing Larissa get angry to this extent.

Atter remains stunned and speechless.

"I apologize, sister Elle. This boy still had not learned his manners. I will make sure to get him a teacher soon." said Larissa while bowing politely.

Crystelle stunned. "What charisma she had!"

' Ah! No, no, it's okay. Please raise your head, princess. It's normal for a young boy at his age to act like that. smile Crystelle.

Crystelle takes a peek at Atter and makes a signal with her eye.

' go..out.. and..I..will..see.. you... later..! ' telepathy by winking her eye toward Atter silently.

"Lady Elle? What's wrong with your eye? Does it hurt?" asks Larissa strangely.

Crystelle looks at Atter as he silently goes out of the chamber. "He understands what I'm saying!"

' Ah! it's nothing? So, uh... I think I'll go out now. Crystelle hesitated.

' Wait! Before that, Lady Elle, may I inquire as to what you intend to do with my brother?' Larissa inquires again, smiling.

Crystelle silent. She seems to be lost in her thoughts.

"Well, like you said... I got him this easily, but I just... got scared?" shrugged Crystelle.

"Well, you know,... It happened so suddenly, and I don't know what drew his attention toward me. What if he suddenly betrays me one day, soon or later? I just want him to be loyal to me; that's why I want to be the one to monopolize his heart...but now I'm not sure if I can believe him.' Crystelle was dejected.

Princess Larissa tilted her head.

Why don't you try to believe him and see what he's talking about? It's like a secret mission to find out what your fiance is up to? You just need to follow the flow. suggest Princess Larissa easily.

' Pfft. "When you say it like that, you make it sound so easy, princess," laughs Crystelle.

"I appreciate your suggestion, princess."But I think I'll give him a chance until our marriage is finalized." If he dares to betray me, the house of Soleil will not sit still," said Crystelle with determination.

Larissa smiled "I guarantee he will be loyal to you, Lady Elle. "Just trust him," said Larissa without hesitation.

Crystelle just smiled and said, "How can she be so confident?"

"Erm, actually..., there's something I've been thinking about all along; can I ask you, Lady Elle?" Larissa asks abruptly.

"You may, princess," Crystelle replied.

Larissa seems to hesitate. "What is the reason for you to break the engagement with the crown prince and get engaged with an abandoned prince instead?" Doesn't it seem like every girl dreams of being a princess? "You are even the best candidate in this empire for the next empress throne," Larissa says."Did you see your future, Lady Elle?"

Crystelle stunned. "Ermm, you're still too young to understand it, princess," replied Crystelle. She tried to run from the question.

I must depart.

Suddenly, a royal guard came into the princess's chamber.

"Pardon my interruptions, princess." "The emperor asks for Lady Crystelle Elera's presence at his chamber this instant," said the royal guard.

Crystelle hesitated. 'I am saved!'But how about Atter? "I promise to meet him now," thought Crystelle.

"Leave Atter to me, Lady Elle." "He is not the one who can understand your signal," Larissa smiled.

Crystelle shock. 'She knew!' she exclaimed.

I am really sorry, princess. Pardon my rudeness. I will head out now. I hope you will call me again in the near future. allow Crystelle to bow

"Shall we go, sir?" said Crystelle toward the royal guard.

They arrived at the main palace. Crystelle heads in and waits for the emperor's permission.

"My lady, the emperor asks for your presence at the waiting room in his chamber," said the royal guard named Sir Kyle.

Crystelle tilted her head. "At the waiting room?" Ask her again to confirm it.

"Yes, Lady Soleil," said Sir Kyle.

Crystelle follows Sir Kyle and heads toward the waiting room.

This waiting room was only connected to his majesty's chamber by a curtain. So, what's the reason he asked to meet me here? "He doesn't want to talk to me by my face," Crystelle reasoned.

"The first prince, Rigel Silas de Ophelia, has arrived," said a voice behind the curtain.

Crystelle feels weird.

'The first prince?' she mumbles.

"Greetings, your Majesty, the honorable sun of Ophelia," Rigel says.

Crystelle feels freaky. "What exactly is going on?"

"You're here, my son; come here and have a talk with me," said the emperor, his voice sounding so happy.

Crystelle silently heard their conversation.

Should I have listened in on their conversation? hesitate her.

"Did the emperor do this on purpose?" Crystelle wondered.
