"I don't recall telling you I have a sister," Marianne says, clearing her throat. The crown prince smirk and struggles to stand up.
"Maybe I was imagining things," he says, feigning ignorance. He knew full well that Marianne has mistakenly says to him about his sister, but decides to play along.
"You were shot, how did you wake up the next day?" Marianne says in shock as he helps the crown prince up.
He had spent the night by the crown prince's side and hadn't seen any signs of his recovery. The crown prince's sudden revival left Mariane baffles and wondering how he still had the energy to…to…to kiss him.
Marianne blushes, her cheeks burning with embarrassment as she recalls the kiss.
The crown prince catch sight of her reddened face and smirks.
"Austrian rulers never die young," he says with a wink. "We are born resilient."
"Oh," Marianne replies, scratching her neck nervously and helping the crown prince sit up properly.
