"How can this be?!" No matter how much time she spent studying the letter, trying to gauge any evidence that might prove it was a counterfeit, the stamp couldn't be wrong. It was indeed signed by the King himself.

A soft knock came at the door, and Yu Xuan stepped inside the chamber. Her face was flushed and as swollen as a pig's. She had lost a lot of weight in just a few days. "I heard you're getting engaged to my brother." When she received no response from the Princess of Fyn, she added, "How about we go to the market tomorrow? We can shop for your wedding dress together."
Kira laughed bitterly. All her frustration and anger were taken out on Yu Xuan, who had made herself a scapegoat. "You want to use such an excuse to see your lover?! Get out of here! I'm not going anywhere with you!"
