Chapter 74

Ian returned to the banquet hall after a conversation with Oscar. He spotted Laritte surrounded by some young ladies.

“Laritte.”

Glancing back at Ian, Laritte introduced her hobby club friends.

“You’re here? They’re my friends. We just had a wonderful time together.”

“Friends?”

The word friend got him intrigued.

How would they know her?

He was a bit jealous. His eyebrows raised a little as he turned to look at his opponents.

“Looks like you enjoyed your short little time with them. We’re going to see the fortune-teller now. Ladies, can I take my wife?”

“Of course!”

The girls bowed to them, promising Laritte that they would also enjoy the next time they met.

“Madam, please wait for me to show off my dress next time!”

Laritte also gently waved to them.

“Goodbye, everyone.”

Ian asked as they walked under the grand chandelier.

“They were nice, weren’t they?”

“They are around my age, but they’re nice. Although, we had a strange encounter in between.”

Ian stopped. People dressed in beautiful attires passed by them.

He carefully chose his words.

“If Laritte feels her opponent is strange, maybe it’s because…..”

Maybe it’s because they are indeed strange.

Ian tried hard to hold back the words and asked a question.

“What happened? Who was this strange opponent?”

“It was the Empress.”

“The Empress? Oh, no!”

“Nothing happened.”

In order to know what happened with Laritte, it would be easier to ask someone else.
