Lily's POV:
Her face was gloomy as she screamed in anger.
I was extremely familiar with this.
So I wasn't surprised when my mother's face suddenly darkened. She always used this trick and thought it was invincible.
So I pretended not to see her expression and said, "But this is different. I will go as a friend, not a flatterer. Don't think too simply of the princes. They are not children that can be fooled at will. Prince Yarin wouldn't have the wisdom and courage to rescue me if that were the case."
My mother's face immediately turned red, but before she could say anything, I immediately retorted, "No matter what, it's not what you think. Prince Yarin treats me as a friend, that's all."
"You're always so stubborn! Lily, this is why I can't get close to you."
