A few days passed when Cassandra was suddenly summoned by the Emperor.
As Cassandra was walking towards the main hall along with Amy she could hear the thoughts of the passersby.
[Is she the one that Lord Bentham wants to marry?]
[Why would she be chosen?]
[The fifth Princess doesn't look that pretty.]
[Did she do something to get on Lord Bentham's good side?]
[Why would someone choose a useless person.]
Cassandra bit her tongue as she walked at a steady rate. She could not say a word to someone who had not to talk it in front of her. Cassandra sighed as she looked back at Amy who was looking at the side.
Everyone was looking at them as if they were the criminals ready to be punished. Amy swallowed as she looked at Cassandra and smiled, giving her master some strength.
[I hope Princess remains strong.] Amy thought as she smiled.
Cassandra's gaze twinkled as she resumed her walk. Amy was the only one who cared for her.
