"First of all, I would like to apologize to His Majesty the King and all the guests for causing such a problem at a public graduation party.

Normally, I would have left the party immediately and resolved the matter between the relevant people, but when someone expresses a one-sided opinion about a completely false accusation, I have no choice but to respond.

Since Baroness Silva has neither retracted her words nor apologized, I would like to ask for your time to prove my innocence here."

The King himself gave me his approval when I asked for permission from those sitting above me with the politeness of a noblewoman.

"Thank you."

Now, it’s time for the counterattack.

In the dance hall where no one was dancing, the famous song that reminded me of the calm before the storm was echoing solemnly. The orchestra's professionalism in keeping the volume low enough not to interfere with the unfolding development of the story.

Now that I've come this far, I'll be able to play the role of the villainess for Miss Charlotte.

"First of all, the "harassment" that Baroness Silva mentioned … I only pointed out the most common etiquette known to all nobles.

I'm sure you're aware of that.

Being friendly is a virtue, but only with the permission of those of higher status. Does this statement sound out of line?

Please consider the feelings of a woman forced to watch her fiancé … cuddle with another young lady. This is a natural human consideration, isn't it?
