Returning to Prince Reigen's bedchamber with a heart as heavy as a stone, Princess Ievna didn't even care about the two maids following her.
"Are you all right, Your Highness? Why did you suddenly leave the banquet? Are you feeling unwell?"
She could hear that it was Oda who dared to ask her several questions, and from her tone alone, she could tell that the maid was worried.
Princess Ievna didn't mean to worry anyone, but she didn't want to open her lips at all. It felt like her lips were pressed together tightly and she didn't have the strength to unzip it, nor could she come up with a reasonable answer at the moment.
She didn't mean to worry her maids, but she ended up ignoring them because she didn't even know how to answer questions from Oda. Not only did she ignore them, but she also closed the bedroom door right in front of their faces.
