Chapter 14

Harsen and Vicente were already in the dining hall. Harsen was sitting at the centre and Vicente was sitting on his right. She hurried her pace.

“You’ll fall down.”

A dull voice flowed in her ear. Harsen frowned a little. Ercella replied apologetically.

“Did you wait long?”

“Not much.”

Ercella dissuaded Vicente from standing up as she came. Vicente bowed politely in his seat.

“You’re here.”

“I’m sorry I’m late. Did you wait long?”

“I didn’t.”

Just then, Harsen’s eyes subtly changed but Ercella couldn’t notice it because she was looking at Vicente.

Who would have thought that Duchess Garten would also be there? And that they would eye Vicente as their potential son-in-law.

I want to talk about what happened today, but it’s better if Harsen doesn’t know about it. It would be better not to mention the proposal at all because it could create a mess.

“Oh right! It seems the Princess Garden’s coming-of-age party is going to be huge. Everyone is looking forward to it.”

“I didn’t know that the Duke loves his daughter so much.”

“It’s understandable because she’s the Duke’s only daughter.”

“Is that so?”

The conversation was cut off there as Ercella brought up a trivial story, probably because it seemed a topic of interest to Harsen.

Ercella was eating bouillabaisse (A/N: Western seafood stew) when all of a sudden, Harsen said this.

“Come to think of it, Vicente will be an adult in three years.”

“I know!”
