He believes her
Adela smiled widely at Richard and shook her head quickly in response to him.
"Yes, Your Royal Highness,"
When she heard the prince, she sighed with relief. In the end, she made him believe in her, saying that she wasn't a spy and no one hired her to stalk him. Adela's self-assurance gradually grew. But could she really do that? Because she was currently in front of the most attractive man in the country, who appeared much more attractive up close.
His stunning blue eyes, which had thick, long lashes, captivated Adela's attention, and she found it difficult to think clearly or speak. Could a man have gorgeous eyes like a girl? Adela contemplated on her own. Richard's looks totally took Adela in. Because Richard's soothing speech abruptly broke the tension that Adela had aroused.
"Then why aren't you at the banquet?" Richard asked.
Adela said in a tangy voice, widening her eyes, "I honestly wasn't having fun there, so I opted to come here."
