Chapter 169: Breaking the Engagement (2)

Tea Ceremony Club’s member?

Aurora turned her gaze to the side and looked at the few students who stepped forward. Her gaze was indifferent and rather cold, which made these students flinched when they saw Aurora’s gaze.

Year of staying at high place had made Aurora’s aura rather strong.

Not everyone could stand in front of her calmly without being affected.

These students were naturally not an exception.

But they have already come to Crown Prince Edward, so they still stepped forward. One of the girl raised her head and said, "Yes, that’s true. Miss Aurora is really stern and would bully others verbally."

Well, only verbally.

Because no one had ever seen Aurora got violent with other students and it would not be realistic to put such a blame on her. Aside from during the swordsmanship class, Aurora had never fought with others.

Moreover, Aurora hadn’t attended the swordsmanship class in years.

After her return from the long break, Aurora basically didn’t attend the swordsmanship class anymore.

So her last fight was more than three years ago.

Can they mention that thing?

It seemed extremely unreliable and the Crown Prince Edward also knew that there was no point mentioning what had happened for such a long time that people might not even remember it anymore.

"Lady Lidia, you’re the new member of the tea ceremony club," Aurora said the name of the girl who stepped forward calmly. This was a new student who came during the three years of her absence. Even though they were of the same age, but Lidia didn’t attend the ceremony club at all when she was still there.

Now she stepped forward and started to speak nonsense?

"I’ve never attended any tea party with you in the past few months," Aurora added calmly.

Lidia flinched. "I’m in the room with the others and we all have seen you bullying Adela and many other girls."

Bullying in the tea ceremony club?

What a joke.

Aurora knew better than anyone that she was strict in the early days of the tea ceremony club because these ladies came to her to learn. They wanted to know more about the proper etiquette for the tea ceremony, which was why they came to her.

She didn’t bully them.

At most, she put some pressure on them invisibly without breaking the etiquette nor showing any form of bullying.

"In that case, give me examples of what I said." Aurora was calm.

"That’s..." Lidia stammered.

Even though Aurora can give people pressure invisibly, but her words have always been polite and kind. There was no instance where Aurora talked badly to them nor made them feel as if she was insulting them blatantly.

It could be said that Aurora’s words were actually knife that was covered in honey.

Because none of her words sounded harsh or anything like that.

But how could Lidia said it.

"Stop it!" Crown Prince Edward frowned. "There are many people who have seen it themselves. Why are you still trying to quibble?!"

Quibble?

Aurora was only trying to defend herself. In the court, even the accused had the right to defend themselves. In the face of such little evidences like this, Aurora didn’t understand why Crown Prince Edward was so confident.

At this moment, Louis stepped forward. "Lady Aurora, these are records of the time when you made Lady Adela cry. There are also some other girls who cried in your tea ceremony club! Many people want to avoid you in the past few months because of this."

After that, Louis mentioned some time, which was mostly happening during their first year of academy.

Aurora looked at Louis calmly.

The time when these girls cried was because they couldn’t do the etiquette well enough. But they were still staying in the tea ceremony club because they knew that they could improve their etiquette through studying with Aurora.

Everything was going well.

None of them were actually bullied.

As for the time when Aurora made Adela cry?

That was because of the invisible pressure that she gave to Adela. At that time, Aurora was a bit annoyed with this sister that was not like sister to her and gave some pressure invisibly.

But none of her action could be considered bullying.

So the list of accusation Louis read out was really ridiculous.

"Miss..." Prince Lester frowned, feeling somewhat worried and also felt that these people were really ridiculous.

What Aurora had done over the years, how could they not be clear?

If it was not because Aurora held his sleeve, he might want to use his sword to shut them all up.

Soon, Louis finished reading.

"In the view of all these, I will annul the engagement between us!" Crown Prince Edward declared once more, showing the confident smile of a victor while holding Adela close in his entrance.

Aurora looked at this scene, not bothered in the slightest bit. She has never liked Crown Prince Edward and whom he wanted to be with didn’t have much effect on her.

For Aurora, their engagement was nothing more than a political contract.

However, there were still some things that had to be made clear.

"The engagement is arranged by His Majesty. You need his permission to..."

"I have asked for permission! My father agreed with everything I do," Crown Prince Edward cut off Aurora’s words before she finished speaking. In his eyes, she was only trying to quibble, which was very boring and annoying.

Aurora arched her eyebrows. "In that case, I’m no longer part of the nobility nor your fiancée, Your Highness?"

"Yes!"

"Do you have the authority to do this?"

"Yes! My father and your parents have agreed and from now on, you’re no longer part of the White Family!"

"I see." Aurora nodded. Even after hearing that, Aurora remained calm and composed. "In that case, I wish you happiness, Your Highness."

After saying that, Aurora turned around and walked towards the door. She had no interest to entertain Crown Prince Edward and the others any longer.
