[Event] [Celesta Twins' Birthday] [4]
"It's because of him!"
I stared at Jayden's picture, my mind filled with questions. "What's the deal with him?"
Sylvia brushed back her platinum-blond hair and crossed her arms. "It's my father," she said, her voice tinged with frustration. "He gave me this picture and told me to try to establish a connection with him."
"So, King Charly is really planning to give you away to Jayden," I remarked sarcastically.
My father had always been fixated on elevating our family and the kingdom to greater heights, but I never imagined he would go so far as to involve Sylvia in his schemes.
Wait a minute.
"Weren't you promised to John?" I asked, recalling an earlier arrangement.
"Yes, I was, but my father changed his mind. He even gave me a picture of the Second Prince of the Arvatra Empire! He didn't even bother to ask for my opinion," Sylvia explained, her voice filled with sadness.
