Just as Arthur promised, he dropped Veronica, Catherine, and Sebastian in front of the main gate. "Guard them properly. Don't leave them for a moment," he instructed Sebastian before leaving.
"Isn't he too guarded?" Catherine remarked.
"Master has his reasons. I hope the Mistress understands," Sebastian politely stated.
"Yes, I know. He has too many enemies. I decided to marry him despite knowing all of these facts." Veronica looked at Sebastian and asked him, "Do you know where he is headed?"
"Yes," answered Sebastian, "he is going to visit the Royal Palace. Master and Mistress were invited to the palace by the Queen."
"Ver, did you choose me over the royal palace? You are the best!" Catherine was the happiest among them.
Veronica's expression suddenly dulled. "I didn't have to choose. I didn't even know that I was invited."
Catherine was astonished. "Huh? He hid it from you! ...But why?"
