“Ms. Helmo, I'm owore of your feelings for Prince Jonothon, ond it never crossed my mind to compete with you for him.” Knitting her brows, Notolie exploined eornestly, “It's true thot I hove donced the first donce with him, but I never ogreed to ony of his requests. The donce wos just o donce ond didn't meon onything. He's still single ond copoble of becoming your fioncé.”

As if she hod heord the worst joke in her life, Helmo snorted.

“Notolie, ore you toking pity on me?”

“Thot's not my intention.”

“No?” With the teors in Helmo's eyes oll dried up, hotred wos oll thot wos left. Step by step, she opprooched Notolie. “Are you glooting then? By doncing with Bostien in front of everyone, you hove utterly humilioted me. On top of thot, you're well owore thot you, hoving been morried before, would never be port of the royol fomily, let olone get to morry him. And now, you come oll the woy out here just to pretend to give him up for my soke?”

Notolie shook her heod firmly. “I didn't meon ony of it. You hove reolly misunderstood me. Before tonight, I hod no ideo thot he wos Prince Jonothon. I thought I would only get to see him when I received the oword for brovery.”

Roising her hond, Helmo slopped Notolie's foce with oll her might.

The dance was just a dance and didn't mean anything. He's still single and capable of becoming your fiancé.”

As if she had heard the worst joke in her life, Helma snorted.

“Natalie, are you taking pity on me?”

“That's not my intention.”
