His heart was pounding behind his ribs when he was finally able to analyze the situation. It wasn't as if he was feeling happy or anything, but rather, he was feeling nervous.
Yesterday, he bumped into the brown-haired man for the first time. The two of them fell to the ground, and then he continued to glare at the man because of the collision.
Then the man apologized to him and was about to introduce himself, but suddenly he cut him off by saying that he knew the man's identity. Yes, he was so confident with his guess that the man was Wrelloven's servant.
'But, he was wearing clothes that looked like they were in tatters yesterday. It's not my fault I thought he was a servant,' Elennora defended himself. 'Besides, he didn't correct the misunderstanding and only accepted it when I thought that he was a servant, so it's not my fault.'
He glanced at the man while continuing to grumble in his heart, but the man did not turn to him and just continued to smile at the other Kings.
When he heard how his father said that the Crown Prince of Wrelloven kept declining his invitations, Elennora thought that the Crown Prince was arrogant.
He thought the Crown Prince was someone who was cold and couldn't even smile at others, but he had seen the Crown Prince since yesterday, and instead of being cold, the Crown Prince was a humble and friendly person. He smiled a lot, and his voice was soft and warm.
The image of the arrogant Crown Prince gradually faded away from Elennora's head. However, he still didn't like the fact that the Crown Prince kept turning down someone's invitation. It was still impolite in his eyes.
"I'm here now, and I want to apologize for my disrespectful behavior in the past. I hope the Kings presented here won't blacklist me," the golden-eyed man standing beside Elennora opened his mouth to sincerely apologize to the other Kings, and it was like confirmation that the man was indeed the Crown Prince of Wrelloven.
It was the same voice and the same attitude, and Elennora thought that the Crown Prince was not faking it.
"Actually, not only did Levan reject invitations from the King of Grinia, but he also always refused invitations from other Kings," King Alvon chimed in from his son's side. "My son finally apologized to you all, and I think I can die in peace now."
King Alvon was still a humble and wise King, and he had once again managed to melt the tension with his jokes.
The other kings laughed at the joke, but it was King Gerold who responded, "You're still young, King Alvon. You can only die after Crown Prince Levan is married."
Sensing that the Kings were about to talk about marriage again, Crown Princess Elennora looked worried. Before King Alvon managed to save the atmosphere earlier, they also talked about marriage.
The atmosphere became so tense because of Queen Richenza's words, but King Alvon managed to melt the tension. However, King Gerold suddenly brought up the same topic again, and Elennora was anxious.
Glancing to the side, Elennora saw his mother, but the Queen was standing at the back of the circle now. Nonetheless, Elennora knew that his mother could hear King Gerold's words earlier. It could be seen from the way the Queen furrowed her brows uncomfortably.
"Ah, yes," replied King Alvon. "Actually, Levan wanted to talk to me earlier because of that matter."
King Gerold looked surprised when he heard the brunette King's answer. Maybe he was just joking earlier, so he didn't expect King Alvon to confirm his joke.
Elennora was also surprised by King Alvon's confirmation. 'Crown Prince Levan hastily gone to talk to his father about marriage? I thought he was still young, so why did he suddenly want to get married? Did he get a girl pregnant?'
The Crown Princess of Grinia couldn't help but have a wild thought in his head. When someone was suddenly in a rush to get married, if that person was a woman, then that person was probably pregnant. But, if the person was a man, then it was very likely that the person impregnated a woman.
It was simple logic, but it was used by most people in the world.
With that in mind, Elennora glanced at the Crown Prince while frowning. 'Not only he's disrespectful, but he also got a girl pregnant. Someone like him wouldn't be able to make a good King,' he couldn't help but judge.
Elennora knew that he would also not be able to become a good Queen because he dared to lie to his subjects, but he still assumed that the Crown Prince of Wrelloven was no different. The Crown Prince was too impudent, the total opposite of the wise and polite King of Wrelloven.
"Oh? Does Crown Prince Levan want to get married? I wonder if he has had a girlfriend all along. That's the reason why he rejected my daughter two weeks ago?" Another king suddenly chimed in, and from his tone, one could tell that he was a little bitter.
Elennora was slightly taken aback by the King's words. It was King Eric of the Broston Kingdom. The pink-haired Crown Princess knew that King Eric had a daughter his age, but he did not know that the King wanted to arrange his daughter's marriage to the Crown Prince of Wrelloven.
"I would like to apologize for my refusal, King Eric of Broston," Crown Prince Levan spoke again. "You have a beautiful and sweet daughter, but I don't love her. That's why I turned her down two weeks ago."
Crown Prince Levan could even talk about love when they talked about royal weddings, and Elennora felt like laughing at the naivety. Most people with royal bloodlines got married not out of love, but the brunette Crown Prince was so naive to think that he would marry someone he loved.
It was an extremely ridiculous thought, and Elennora glanced at the Crown Prince again. He wanted to mock the Crown Prince, but he was stunned that Crown Prince Levan was looking at him with a smile right now.
What was the meaning of the smile?
