Chapter 1169

As soon as Helen entered the palace, she couldn’t wait to take a stroll in the gardens with Dakota and Josephine. The red ruby jewelry set she wore today was so striking against her complexion that she wanted everyone to notice -preferably on purpose.

Meanwhile, Rafael accompanied Carissa to visit Victoria and chat with her. A crowd of noble ladies, both from inside and outside the palace, gathered around to join them.

Just then, Thomas‘ mom, Alice, entered the palace to offer her greetings to Victoria. To her surprise, Victoria asked about Thomas‘ marriage right in front of so many noble ladies.

Victoria shook her head. “Nonsense. He is one of Starhaven’s great generals and is deeply favored by the king. How can you say he’s unlucky? His destiny has been written, and his fated match will come in time.”

Alice immediately bowed deeply. “Yes, Your Majesty. Thank you for your concern.”
