The afternoon tea at the queen's palace resumed as Ophelia and the princesses, as well as the queen, were having a light conversation.
However, despite the light ambience in the pavilion, there was an underlying tension that could be felt by everyone present.
Through the smiles on their faces, it was clear that something was amiss. Under their smiles, a brewing storm is between them.
The princesses exchanged glances; their eyes filled with unspoken words. Ophelia, sensing the tension, carefully chose her words, trying to maintain the pleasant atmosphere. It was evident that a delicate matter hung in the air, threatening to disrupt the harmony of the tea gathering.
Ophelia wanted to shut her mouth close and avoid any potential conflict, but such a plan was disrupted by the etiquette expected of her.
