Since Ethan and Tavern had already left, what were they supposed to do now?
"I am sure you are not interested in hunting anymore. Shall I go and hunt while you wait here?" she asked as the hunt they had so far was too less. It would be hard for him to save the face with only this one, let alone winning the hunt with it.
Their performance would be regarded as poor one. And he could even be ridiculed for it. This could damage his honor as the crown prince.
"If you want to win, keep hunting, you do not need to worry about me. It is not the first time I am participating but I have won every time. My colleagues did not even know that I did not like hunting." her face hardened. How dense would they be to not notice it.
But could she be one of them.
"Forget it. I will act like I was sick and you came back to take care of me. No one would be able to ask us anything then." she said with a sigh and her face hardened when he nodded after a pause too.
