Chapter 91

Abby couldn’t help but worry when whatever she tried to do only showed unsatisfactory results.

Not to mention there were only five more days until the ceremony.

Apart from her dress that had been finalized, everything else had been giving her a headache while Micah was still busy with his own things.

She had no one to openly discuss her worries or even troubles as she didn’t feel that close to anyone else but her mate, who couldn’t even find enough time to sleep, let alone eat properly or have a small talk with her.

Even the food arrangements, she thought would be dealt with the other day, posed a new challenge as the desserts and drinks she selected didn’t compliment the main course at all.

The selection of flowers and the theme of decoration were another recipe for her headache, that wouldn’t go away no matter what.

Now, to all of them, she could add this speech, that wouldn’t be finished no matter how hard she tried.

She knew nothing about ruling a kingdom, or considering everyone while thinking about something, so obviously, her words would lack the sincerity Sherianne was aiming for.

Thinking all of this only worsened her headache, as her racing mind kept adding to her discomfort.

So when she found herself in the middle of this back garden, albeit, unintentionally, Abby succumbed to her need to cool her head off as she bee lined to the small bench at the far end of the back yard.

The evening summer air was crisp and refreshing, it prompted her to close her eyes as she enjoyed the sweet fragrance of the flowers carried over by the evening air.

The sun was almost up and there were not many people around, while her maid seemed to have realized she wanted to be alone, she didn’t disturb her as she stood to the side silently.

However, just as she closed her eyes to bask in the serenity which was usually so rare in this palace,

especially now with all the hasty preparations for their crowning ceremony, she heard a voice reach her

ears.

“We meet again,” a man said from her left and she immediately turned around to find it was Ezgar.

But this time he bowed to her respectfully which prompted her to nod in response.

“I’m sorry, I couldn’t recognize your highness the last time,” Ezgar said as he stopped about five feet from the bench she was sitting on.

“It’s okay,” Abby said when she remembered Micah saying Ezgar was a good man.

She felt like correcting him that she was yet to be crowned to be worthy of the title ‘your highness‘.

Only she refrained from saying so when she remembered that he was actually Ruby’s brother.

However, his next words surprised her. “And I also want to use this opportunity to apologize for my little sister’s behavior the other day.”
