Lady Melissa closed her eyes, getting ready at what they were going to do or say to her.
But it never came, no words or actions were directed to her, and she certainly didn't feel any pain from her face, or from any part of her body for that matter.
"Thank you for inviting the both of us to the party, Duchess Victoria."
The Crown Prince said, as he thanked Duchess Victoria for inviting the both of them to the party, to which Lady Melisssa assumed they meant the brunette-haired woman.
Lady Melissa's eyes slowly opened hearing the Crown Prince talking to Duchess Victoria.
The brunette-haired woman only boredly standing beside the Crown Prince while he talked to Duchess Victoria.
Lady Melissa made eye contact with the brunette-haired woman for a few seconds as she quickly gave her a smile.
It wasn't the kind smile that Lady Melissa would often give or receive from her peers.
