Princess Margareth's invitation suddenly hushed the gathering, leaving everyone stunned. Among the surprised attendees, Felicia stood out, completely unaware of the connection between Allen and Margareth.
Allen was Felicia's knight, and any invitation extended to Allen required Felicia's approval. Before Felicia could voice her concern, Margareth swiftly released Allen's hand, breaking the tension with a casual remark, "I'm just kidding." Her words brought a collective sigh of relief from the onlookers.
"I truly miss your cooking after all this time, but, unfortunately, I find myself swamped with commitments," Margareth continued. Despite the initial shock, her reassurance diffused the tension in the room.
