"What possessed me to do that?" Raziah fumbled as she strode further away from the room. Her cheeks were a light shade of pink, and she kept on rubbing her wristband over and over again. She sighed inwardly, wondering exactly where she was heading to in the palace. Maria wasn't anywhere close by, and the title was still stuck with her. She had gone there to confront him but ended up... Coaxing him instead.
That Olive! He had pushed her into going out of her way again.
As luck would have it, she ended up running into Maria again.
But the maid wasn't alone. She seemed on edge, her body was stiff as she was conversing with someone. Raziah stood from a distance and watched Maria nod like an obedient child, replying to the conversation she was having. Looking closer, Raziah recognized the man as the same person she had walked past - the one who resembled Princess Gwenore very much.
