Chapter 023 ( Ammonie Festival )

" If that's what you want, I'll be here until you realize, " Monna couldn't wanted but she must give up.

Think of this as one of the protocols that a Crown Princess needs for her husband. There is nothing bad about her accompanying Belhart who is now injured. These calculations are a form of obligation as a good wife. That is if this intention is respected.

Belhart slept peacefully. And wake up feeling better afterward.

He observed a woman who had been with him since he fell asleep. Cattarina sat sweetly on the lounge chair near the bed and was busy reading several kinds of books that Belhart didn't know what to do.

Her face was serious enough to make Belhart not want to bother her. To make the slightest sound that might bother her, Belhart chose to remain silent in his peaceful position.

Until when he had been observing Cattarina for quite a long time, their gazes had accidentally met.

" You're awake? " Cattarina got up to greet Belhart.

Belhart answered with a low nod.

" Want a glass of water? Or are you feeling hungry? I have asked someone to prepare something for you to eat. If you wish, I will help you, " said Monna volunteered.

" Prop me," Belhart asked Cattarina to prop up him. Monna immediately agreed. She helped Belhart to his feet and sit on the chair she had deliberately asked to prepare. Due to their closeness, Monna could feel the familiar mint scent from Belhart's body.

Then, when Monna had sat in front of Belhart excitedly and was waiting quietly for his meal, Belhart had already made an unusual statement.

" You don't want to feed me? " asked Belhart, right in front of Cattarina.

Monna looked at him spontaneously.

" Feed you noble?" she asked doubtfully.

" Yes. As you can see. My right arm is injured. So, it must be very difficult for me to take the food and feed it. Aren't you a good wife and crown princess, take the initiative to help me? " asked Belhart, looking for an excuse.

Monna immediately held back all her disapproval to herself. She reluctantly fetched food for Belhart. Then feed him slowly, while asking questions occasionally.

" How are you going to repay that young doctor for you? " Monna asked curiously.

Belhart turned his attention to Cattarina.

" Doctor Alliesia, you mean?" asked Belhart back. Make sure the subjects they will cover are the same.

Monna immediately nodded, " Yes. What are you going to do with her? " asked Monna.

" I have no idea. I haven't thought about it yet, " Belhart replied carelessly.

Monna styled it for a moment.

" How about you make her one of the official doctors of the palace? " asked Monna, suggesting.

Even though she knew that Belhart would come up with this idea himself without telling her according to the existing storyline, Monna still wanted to contribute to the success of their relationship later.

Monna wanted to make a good impression on both of them. And she also wanted this little suggestion to make Belhart thank for her one day, who knows when.

" I'll try to think about it. That woman has done a lot to save me. But I will discuss this matter at the imperial meeting first, " Belhart replied rationally.

Monna agreed to that. She knows that this decision must be resolved. So when Monna saw that Belhart's mood was quite good today, Monna asked another question that she wanted to know.

" Erm ... then, how do you feel ... em, I mean, how do you think about Miss Alliesia?" Monna asked curiously.

It is not clear in the book exactly when Belhart's feelings for Alliesia began. Therefore, Monna wanted to dig up a little information about this before she took any further steps.

And Belhart's seemingly devoid of interest made Monna frown.

" He's talented, " Berlhart replied simply and without any words.

" Only that? " asked Monna.

Belhart replied confidently, " Yes."

" That is all? " Monna asked enthusiastically, making Belhart look at her in confusion.

" What do you expect? " he asked, not understanding.

Monna immediately shook her head.

" There is no. I'm sure he is as talented as you said. " Monna quickly agreed to Belhart's words before she started to get suspicious.

Could it be that Belhart's feelings for Alliesia still haven't grown? They had just met, so there was no way they would fall in love just because the first sight was like the one in children's fairy tales?

After all, Belhart is known as a man with a heart of steel. So it must be hard for that man to open his heart to just anyone he met.

Is that why Belhart answered her questions so easily and without thinking?

Monna probably doesn't know exactly when and how Belhart's feelings will turn to Alliesia. But as time goes by, Monna is sure that her feelings will surely come between them soon.

Didn't she just have to wait right now?

Oh yes! Could it be that it will be during the royal festival which will be held one week from now?

***

After failing to carry out her action to get a child from Belhart due to a miscarriage due to her weak body, Belhart launches his revenge on Cattarina on the day of the Ammonie festival.

Geraldy royal traditional festival to offer wishes and wishes for all people and also their country. As well as a celebration to give thanks for all the prosperity and welfare they have received so far.

The festival will take place with the presence of the royal crown prince and princess Geraldy dancing in the crowd to celebrate the event.

But the day Belhart was supposed to dance with Cattarina to fill the event, Belhart actually grabbed the hand of another woman who was around him randomly. Whether it was coincidence or fate, Alliesia Rustchel was the only woman dancing with the Crown Prince that day.

Like being struck by a powerful thunder and roar, Cattarina in the novel could only hold back her anger and great shame to endure all the humiliation she received from the crown prince without being able to say anything.
