Chapter 168
"My lady, it’s time to go."Emily picked me up shortly after the Duke left. "Yes."I nodded and raised my body.I followed Emily down, and it was calmer than I thought.The venue for the coming-of-age ceremony was decorated with a banquet hall inside the mansion, not in the front garden, but in the back garden.It was the will of the Duke. It was a place that I spend a lot of time, and it was really meaningless.After pressing down on the aching stomach again, I strode past the wide-open back door. The bright sunlight shone outside.The place, which had been off-limits for two days due to preparations for the ceremony, was turned into a starland.New white drapes, tents, flowers, crystals, and various jewels with lavishly decorated podiums and numerous tables embroidered with colorful gold coins.Apparently, a huge fountain, which had not been there until a few days ago, was pouring with water in the middle.Visit lightnovelp/ub[./]com for a better experienceAs if to adorn all of it, a rare flamboyant, colorful flower rain fell from the sky. "It’s not a fantasy, it’s a real-life magic, my lady."Emily whispered gladly."For today, the Duke hired a large number of wizards."When I heard that, I could see a little bit why the Duke insisted so strongly that he couldn’t cancel it. The ceremony was simply the height of luxury that seemed to have been poured out of money."It’s so beautiful, my lady..."Emily muttered while looking up at the sky with her dreamy eyes.I extended my hand. Just in time, a falling petal settled down on my palm. At that moment, I couldn’t stop my view from blurrying.The coveted flesh-colored petals were The Ellen Wick Rose.To avoid the quarrel with Renald, who said it was meaningless and pretty in front of the Duke. When I was staring down at it.Ttuk-. Suddenly, someone snatched my hand towards the air. "What are you doing standing here stupidly?"When I looked up, I saw his light pink hair. I asked, frowning."What?""There’s no one knight saying he’ll escort you to the ceremony, right? Gee, you could’ve been a fool without me.""I don’t need you, I can go alone. And I told you not to talk to me for a while."I said it sharply and then snapped and plucked my hand. "Hey, hey!"Renald took my hand back in a hurry. "Let it go, don’t you hear me?""What will happen to Eckart if you go alone? You have two brothers, and they’ll point at us if we don’t escort you.""What do you know?"Visit lightnovelp/ub[.]com for a better experienceWhen I twisted my arm without care, Reynold exclaimed hurriedly."Father! He told me to take care of you so you wouldn’t get into trouble! Hey, you tell her. Dad made me do it, didn’t he? Uh?"He fiercely glared at Emily. Frightened, Emily nodded wildly."Yeah, yes, my lady! I’ve heard it too! The young master will escort you to the ceremony..." "You see, she heard him!"It was a obvious lie to anyone. I sighed indistinctly and relaxed my arm. I didn’t want to be in touch with Renald, but if I continued to fight like this, everyone’s attention would be drawn.He quickly followed me when I moved without a word, assuming that I had no escort. I didn’t want to see his smile, so I fixed my eyes only on the front.There was quite a distance to the podium beyond the fountain in the middle. I stepped on the red carpet holding Renald’s hand who was like gentleman, and I heard a familiar whisper."It must be true that the lady is his beloved daughter, not the child he gave up, she truly symbolizes a household name.""Well, I mean, even though she has been such a scoundrel all this time..." "What’s this decoration for her...? Oh, my God, it looks too expensive."For more, visit lightnov/e/lpub[.]comIt was the moment. The light flashed before my eyes.
