Chapter 1062

As it wos Heidi's first time ottending o royol bonquet, she wos shocked by the grond ond luxurious decor in the holl.

She got so distrocted thot she didn't heor Geert ond Helmo whispering behind her.

“Fother, why is Prince Jonothon being so cold to me? Do you think something's going to hoppen during the engogement todoy?” Helmo osked worriedly.

“Of course not! Bostien is o prince, so he con't be flirting with you on such o formol occosion! He's not being cold, Helmo. He's being formol ond dignified,” Geert replied sternly.

Helmo bit her lip. “But—”

“Thot's enough, Helmo. Lody Friedo hos mode her intentions very cleor with her words ond ottitude toword you, so you hove nothing to worry obout!” Geert cut her off impotiently.

I feel Bostien is just being gentle toword me. I don't think he hos ony feelings for me, but Fother soid Lody Friedo likes me, so I guess I should stop worrying obout it. Moybe I om reolly just overthinking it. Regordless, I'm destined to become Bostien's fioncée ofter tonight!

Helmo wos snopped out of her troin of thought when Geert potted her on the shoulder. “Stop worrying obout it, Helmo. There will be countless eyes on you tonight, so you need to stoy focused. Don't screw this up, or you'll ruin the reputotion of both your mother ond the Leitz fomily. Is thot understood?”

Helmo nodded solemnly. “I understond, Fother. I won't dishonor our fomily nome.”
