Chapter 205: A Nap

Prince Lester came back after entrusting the letter to the errand boy who usually did this job. He was looking for Aurora and finally found her sleeping.

His footsteps stopped.

Aurora rarely took a nap.

Because she has always been so busy with various matters, Aurora would not take a break in the middle of the day.

But today, she took a rare exception to take a nap.

Looking at Aurora who was sleeping peacefully, she looked so defenseless and peaceful. There was no fake smile on her face that she showed to other noble nor were there the sense of oppression brought to her subordinates and opponent.

Prince Lester looked at Aurora for a moment before turning around and asked for a blanket.

The temperature in this place is a bit cold, so it would be better to cover oneself with blanket when they were outside.

...

Adela’s side

Since Adela technically had graduated, she didn’t have to go back to the Capital Academy. She planned to spend her time in the White Family Residence with her mother and her father, but the situation in the White Family didn’t seem to be that good.

Adela looked at her mother, Duchess Isabella, who looked annoyed in confusion.

"Mother?" Adela asked, her tone expressed her confusion.

"Ah, you’re back, Adela." Duchess Isabella smiled at her daughter but she couldn’t really bring herself to smile.

The things that happened recently made Duchess Isabella annoyed, especially because Duke White cut down the expense that she could use.

For Duchess Isabella who loved parties so much, it was too much!

She couldn’t accept it.

But the problem was, Duchess Isabella knew that Duke White truly couldn’t do anything this time, so she could only be patient.

"Is there anything wrong, Mother?" Adela asked curiously.

"It’s nothing." Duchess Isabella shook her head and then said, "Marquess Brown is having a tea party for her daughter before her marriage. Do you want to go with me?"

To be honest, Duchess Isabella wanted to go to a lot more parties, but she also knew that she didn’t have enough new dresses for that.

Her husband, Duke White, had told her that it was impossible for her to buy more and he didn’t give her that much money.

But for this one tea party...

Duchess Isabella had to attend.

"Marquess Brown’s tea party?" Adela felt that this phrase was familiar before she remembered that there was a scene in the past where she went to Marquess Brown’s tea party and then met with Crown Prince Edward there.

Thinking about it, it has been such a long time since Adela went there.

"Okay, Mother, I’ll go." Adela smiled.

Duchess Isabella smiled back when she saw Adela’s cheerful smile. In the next moment, she thought about something and asked, "About the new dresses..."

"His Highness had bought me a lot of new dresses, Mother." Adela thought about it and felt really happy. After the engagement between Adela and Crown Prince Edward was established, Crown Prince Edward also bought a lot of gifts for Adela.

In the past, Crown Prince Edward did buy a lot of gifts for Adela, but he had to do it covertly. After all, Crown Prince Edward was still engaged to Aurora and Louis warned him not to bring gifts to other girls openly to avoid people talking about it.

So Crown Prince Edward could only buy some small gifts for Adela from time to time. The value was still pretty high but it was not comparable to now.

Right now, Adela was able to be pampered openly.

This made Adela really happy and she wished that this state could last forever.

"That’s good." Duchess Isabella smiled brightly and heaved a sigh of relief secretly. She was thinking about how to make sure Adela still looked the best but didn’t expect that this problem has been solved even before this matter was raised.

It seemed that Crown Prince Edward truly loves Adela.

Thinking about this, Duchess Isabella felt really relieved.

In this way, Adela could still appear in that tea party with a new dress and didn’t have to face the possibility of appearing in an old fashioned dress.

But then, Duchess Isabella thought about her own situation and frowned. While Adela’s problem was solved, she still has to solve the problem of her own dress.

Should she go to Duke White and ask for money?

But from the way Duke White behaved, Duchess Isabella felt that the feasibility of success was extremely low.

’I’ll try later.’

Adela didn’t know that her mother was conflicted.

After all, Adela was not really good at observing a person’s facial expression. Being pampered by her parents and then being pampered again by the few people she was close with on the academy, Adela was not very keen on observing other people’s meaning.

This should have been something that people in the nobility world could do in normal times.

But Adela failed miserably.

This made it impossible for Adela to truly integrate into the high society.

Moreover, aside from the target character whom Adela tried her best to get close to, no one else were close to Adela in the academy. They didn’t want to associate themselves with Adela and kept their distance from her.

In their opinion, it was not worth it to get close to Adela.

Her status might be high because she was the duke’s daughter and also the crown princess now, but her attitude and behavior made the other noble girls unwilling to stay close to Adela.

"Mother, is there anything else that I need to pay attention to?" Adela asked curiously.

After her big failure in the tea party club hosted by Aurora a long time ago, Adela hadn’t gone to the tea party again. She always felt that the women were looking at her with mockery.

It was as if she should have been able to do this but she failed, which was an embarrassment.

This made Adela unwilling to associate with these girls.
