If she couldn’t defuse the first two points, she would end up with a bad reputation, unable to survive in Argentum, and would have to pack up and return to Windermount.

But if she could handle it, she would definitely have a backup plan. Otherwise, with such a grand banquet, it would be a loss for her.

The pastries were served in turns, many of which were exquisite delicacies from Caelmont.

But after eating so many pastries, it became quite tiring, especially with the hot weather. There was little desire for sweet food.

Fortunately, Priscilla had prepared in advance and sent a few servants to bring out the coconut water she had brought from Caelmont.

Coconuts were rare in Argentum, and even when available, they were old coconuts that had no water, only flesh. It was only the young coconuts that contained juice.

Noelle and Britney from the Pearl Tower also came up with the coconut water, placing the bowls in front of Isolde and the princess.

Margaret also drank some, a faint smile appearing on her face. “Caelmont has so many delicious foods and fruits. No wonder Mrs. Blackwell is so reluctant to return to the capital.”

Prudence smiled and said, “No matter how good Caelmont is, it can’t compare to the comfort of home.”

She took a closer look at her bowl and the princess’s bowl, both of which had a faint, dark red mark on the edge. It wasn’t immediately obvious, but it was distinguishable.

None of the other bowls had this mark.

Mrs. Blackwell had the servants lower the clay jar into the well in our courtyard. Then, just now, Mrs. Langley had the jar brought up from the Pearl Tower and asked Britney and me to deliver it. She said that since Britney and I have just entered the household and aren’t familiar with the rules, she was worried we might make a mistake
