"The rumors were not very helpful," Countess Helen Stacey gave the other ladies next to her a knowing look. "The sudden order of the Emperor to make the Young Miss of the Lux Family the partner of the Prince at the hunt does not make sense. Why would the Emperor do such a thing?"
She then looked at the woman wearing a pink dress.
"What do you think Lady Marie?" the countess asked.
The Madam of the Lux Family told everyone that she was going to bring both Marie and Rosalind to the hunt. However, it was only Rosalind who was ordered to become the partner of the Prince.
Marie, who had a very high possibility of becoming the next Blessed one, was not invited by anyone. However, this was all a part of courtesy, everyone knew that the one who would receive the Blessing would have the possibility of marrying the next crown prince.
