120 MAIDENS IN LOVE

"HANNA, SWEETIE, do you want to go home for the meantime?" her mother, who sat beside her on the bed, asked. "Your father already got permission from His Majesty. You may leave with us if you want to."

Hanna, who was about to drink the herbal tea that Madam Hammock made for her, stopped and blinked in surprise with her mother's question. "I thought I'm supposed to stay in the palace until the Moon Festival is over. Am I being kicked out because of what happened, Mother?"

She knew that she was only invited in the Royal Palace to be the crown prince's company. After the crowning ceremony comes the week-long festival. That meant her job as the royal prince's company wasn't over yet.

Anyway…

She and her mother were alone in the infirmary now.
