Bella Shaw shook her head.
After a good while, she finally spoke, "Tomorrow... I have to attend the election again."
"Again?" Dodo asked back, but she immediately realized, "The re-election for the district committee, right?"
Bella Shaw nodded.
Dodo sighed, "I really don't understand what your mother is thinking. A girl like you should just focus on studying and getting married, why must you get involved in politics? You're... not cut out for that."
With an expression close to tears, Bella Shaw said, "Brother also had an argument with Mother about this, but Mother said, if I couldn't be a little more outstanding, our family would have no right to marry a Princess..."
"Princess!?" Dodo and John Coleman exclaimed in unison, loudly.
Bella Shaw suddenly realized she had said too much and hurriedly covered her mouth.
"I'm sorry, Dodo, John, I... Please, don't let it out, just pretend you didn't hear anything, okay?" Bella Shaw stuttered.
