Capitulo 30
Episode 30
However, in my head I was thinking about what I would say if I danced with Daniel, my ex fiancé….
«Daniel, I…….»
At that moment, I thought it would be best to refuse.
I heard a thump.
I slowly looked back. There was a woman in a white dress with angel wings.
«Well, how…….»
Her eyes were full of shock and anger, her voice trembling and the hem of her dress as if she was tearing it.
I never dreamed Daniel would be so shocked just for asking me for a dance, so I couldn’t help but let out a giggle.
It was exciting to the point where my spine had a shivering sensation.
* * *
I’ve been having a bad day since this morning.
«Ouch!»
The crystal glass I was holding without much thought shattered into pieces and hurt my finger. Tatiana looked at my hand covered in glass.
The red blood flowing down my fingers fell on the table.
«Are you all right, Your Highness?»
«I need to be attended to.»
A startled maid came running over and examined Tatiana’s hand. Some made a fuss and went out to fetch the doctor.
Soon the doctor came in, removed the little pieces of glass stuck in her hand and applied the medicine.
«Of course, wouldn’t it be better not to go to the party at the duke’s house?».
Tatiana shook her head despite the maid’s dissuasion. After marrying Andrew, Tatiana had never been invited to his party.
She thought it was only natural that the relationship with Karina had come to an end.
However, Karina spread the rumor with the emperor and proudly invited herself.
«It’s not just an invitation.
It was a declaration of war.
Tatiana stroked her wrist with an impatient look.
The bracelet glittered because she touched it every time she was nervous.
Why on earth was this happening?
Obviously, until a few years ago, Tatiana was very happy.
Andrew, who only looked at himself, pledged his love even before he got married.
I thought I could live a happy life with the blessings.
However, that day, the moment I let my guard down and thought it was all over, it was completely over.
«There has to be a way,»
because the owner of this world is Tatiana herself, not someone else.
She looked down at the neatly calligraphed invitation and bit her lips.
How did I get this far and couldn’t break down just for this?
«As long as it’s not because of her, everything will go back to normal without her.»
Tatiana began to prepare herself, quelling the anxiety rising from the back of her mind.
Under the angel concept, she wore a dazzling white dress and angel wings.
Splendid silver hair was tied in the middle and hung long.
Tatiana looked at herself in the mirror. She really looked like an angel, all in white.
«Your Highness?»
«Not yet, ma’am.»
When asked where Andrew was, the maid bowed her head apologetically. Tatiana bit her lips.
She thought it was the best option, but now it became the worst option to nibble at the bottom of her heart.
«Yes.»
She climbed into the carriage with as little emotion as possible. My head throbbed all the way to the Duke of Pioneer’s house.
» We have arrived, Your Majesty, »
Tatiana put a mask on the rider’s horse. With an elegant gesture, she stepped down from the carriage and accessed the entrance to the white marble Lysianthrus Hall.
All eyes from the bustling crowd turned to her.
Silver hair was rare in this world, and they all must have noticed that the woman entering was a great secret.
Tatiana entered slowly, looking at her with a mixture of longing, jealousy and envy.
She could see people huddled near a small table. A soft scent enveloped her as she passed by.
Tatiana stopped there unconsciously.
«What’s wrong?»
She had a bad feeling. Tatiana walked slowly toward the table.
There were several bottles of longing on a table decorated with flowers, ribbons and pearls.
Beside her, people who appeared to be maids were smiling broadly and helping with the incense.
«Welcome, Lady, may I help you with the incense?»
She didn’t remember her name, but she remembered her voice.
It was the maid who had always been at Karina’s side. Is she speaking to me knowing that?
Before I could hear Tatiana’s answer, she picked up a small bag of incense and sprinkled a perfume on a long, thin piece of paper.
«It’s a perfume named after a woman inspired by a perfumer. It is said that after passing the first intense and spicy scent, the delicate woody scent has been directed to be cozy for the finish.»
Tatiana murmured, looking at the perfume bottle.
«Niveia…….. »
«Yes, that’s right, I’m a perfumer who has been rumored among people who like perfume. This time, with the full support of the Pioneer Princess, I have launched a new perfume.»
The maid smiled and explained one by one, but none of them caught her attention.
This was ridiculous. All this glory should have belonged to Tatiana herself.
I gasped and my hands trembled. For a moment Tatiana found someone glowing in the dark.
«Karina.»
Tatiana, who had dropped her incense bag on the floor, ran to Karina. Then I saw someone standing next to her.
Tatiana was puzzled by the existence of a man who could not appear here.
«Daniel?»
Has he come to make peace with Karina?
Tatiana pursed her lips and reached for her bracelet. It wasn’t as good as before, but she still had more than half of it.
«You betrayed me just because you said that?»
As if he didn’t know Tatiana’s heart, Daniel bowed gracefully, shaking his soft brown hair.
It looked like he was asking Karina to dance.
«No way!»
Tatiana, who was in a hurry, grabbed a glass of champagne from her servant and threw it straight to the floor.
With a clatter, the man’s eyes turned to Tatiana.
Tatiana looked at Daniel with tears in her eyes.
Anger, a feeling of betrayal and a sense of inferiority that she didn’t even know was there came to her mind.
The tears welled up.
«Daniel, how have you been able to…….»
The things I held between my fingers seemed to keep flowing down.
* * *
Tatiana appeared at just the right moment. It was amazing how the timing was so good.
«I wonder if you’ve had an eye on me.»
When I casually thought about it, I laughed for no reason.
Maybe it’s not hard to be a watchdog, even if we’re looking at tastes and options.
Smiles and laughter erupted.
«Oh, Titi. That’s what I’m talking about.»
Unlike me, who feels the whole thing is ridiculous, Tatiana and Daniel looked quite serious.
«How could you do this to me?»
Tatiana’s blue eyes moved with clear tears.
I wondered if this was something to cry about, but my thoughts seemed unimportant to them.
«So, let’s go to …….»
Daniel looked at me at a loss.
He looked as if he had cheated on his wife.
Pathetic.
«Titi, by that look, the others think you’re cheating on Daniel.»
I smiled and tapped Tatiana on the shoulder. Her round eyes looked at me sternly.
«What do you mean?»
«Don’t forget you’re already married.»
«I know.»
«Then why are you acting like Daniel cheated on you?»
«Well, that’s …..»
What world is she living in?
She finally wiped away her treacherous look at the stares of those around her.
Suddenly, everything became problematic.
Daniel and Tatiana, who are now friends, are obsessed with her.
«Have a good time together. I’ll leave them alone.»
«Wait a minute, Karin.»
Daniel grabbed my wrist trying to escape. I politely removed his hand and put it down.
«Let’s the three of us talk together,» don’t.
«Why?»
Daniel’s face hardened at my retort. I felt worse seeing that.
«Are we friends?»
Friends? You’ve never done that before.
«There’s an idiot in the world who cheated on me and befriended a man who broke off his engagement.»
He shut his mouth when I said it.
I wonder if my memory is gone.Why are you so blatantly clingy?
«When you said you wanted to break off your marriage, you said you’d understand even if I never saw you again.»
«You and Tatiana were getting along.»
«Oh, Daniel,»
I said with a puzzled look.
Daniel brought up what he had to do, and he was irritated. The way he acted like he didn’t know anything.
Yes, it was nasty.
«You know what my ruminations were like back then.»
«…….»
«You’re not saying you don’t remember, are you?»
