"What took you so long, Yunjin? All the food has gone cold by now. Hurry up and sit down."
Lady Aerith was waiting for them back at their table, and Sui was not even surprised when Lady Aerith ignored her.
Princess Yunjin was all but tugged by the female to sit down in her previous seat while Lady Aerith occupied Sui's seat.
Sui had no choice but to sit in the foreign minister's seat and felt awkward.
'I cannot sit in the seat of a noble. I might be free now, but it still feels wrong and awkward for me to be here.'
Sui stood awkwardly and could feel the guard and servants looking at her from the other side of the hall.
They were also waiting to see what Sui would do in this situation.
Despite no longer being a slave, Sui's body and her mind were trained to think and act like one. So, some decisions and situations felt awkward to her.
