127 “Wrong Person”

“My Lady!”

Maria spoke as soon as Eleanora returned from the imperial palace with Alexander and came out after having a bath.

“The work pieces you commissioned from the second young master of the Spade family’s workshop has arrived.”

“Oh, Thank Godness. It’s almost the lady’s birthday and i was wondering why it had yet to come when i had already commissioned it.”

Eleanora felt relieve as she received the box from Maria but was a little stunned to find another box beside it.

‘To my muse, Axion Spade?’

‘What’s this? It’s not like buy one get one free right?’

Everyone was shocked as Eleanora opened the boxes and she smilled.

“Kyaa! My lady! What are this?!”

.....

“It’s so beautifully curved and designed!”

“It’s my first time seeing something like this.”

‘As expected from him. He has already captivated everyone.’

Eleanora felt happy to see the maids reaction. This meant all she need is to promote Axion a little in Rosette’s birthday banquet.

“I will reveal it at the birthday banquet.”

Eleanora spoke as she shut the box and hand it over to Jennie to keep it safely.

the maids was a little disappointed but they still thought of waiting till Rosette’s birthday to know what the item was.

At that moment, there was a sudden knock on the door.

“My lady, it’s Dylan.”

“What it is, Butler Dylan?”

Eleanora asked their butler, who was standing at the door.

“The son of the count Bomir, Edmund Bomir has arrived. He said he is making a call to provide the response to my lady’s letter.”

Eleanora didn’t expected Edmund to come and visit her personally to give her response.

‘He came personally instead of sending a letter?’

‘Indeed, he will be my partner so it wouldn’t be bad to get to know each other beforehand the party.’

“I see. I will head down once am prepared.”

“It’s been a while, Lady Dalton.”

Edmund spoke and Eleanora feel like he was sparkling.

Although Edmund was not so handsome like the emperor or Cedrick Raven, but he was no less either.

“Welcome, Sir Bomir.”

Eleanora spoke gently as she invited Edmund in.

“I will escort you to the drawing room.”

Maria spoke as she lead them in the drawing room, obviously happy to see Eleanora together with someone normal.

The emperor was crazy and Cedrick was from the Ravens, so Maria disapproved both of them.

Moreover, the emperor was too tall for her lady.

The lady will get neck pain if she has to talk with the emperor while standing for a long time.

Maria cheered up for them in her heart as she served them tea and left to give them some privacy.

But she was once again frightened as she saw the duke leaning on the glass window of the drawing room to keep an eye on Edmund.

‘W-What is the duke doing?!’

‘Don’t tell me...he is listening to their conversation secrectly?!’

Meanwhile in the room~

“My Lady, I must inform you for the reason of my visit today.”

“Please speak.”

Eleanora felt a little weird for some reason and to her utter surprise, Edmund suddenly dropped on his knees infront of her.

“I MUST APOLOGISE, MY LADY!!”

“W-What is the meaning of this, Sir Bomir?”

Eleanora was really surprised.

“I mistakenly thought that lady Dalton has another partner, So i have agreed to be someone else’s partner.”

“…”

‘Do they think i will attend the count’s daughter birthday party with the emperor, who never attended any banquets except the royal ones and hardly seen in the public?’

‘And why would the emperor come with me, leaving his works behind?’

Eleanora was speechless. Just because she is always the emperor’s partner as his fiance doesn’t mean she can’t get anyone else as a partner in need or instead of him.

There is no rules that an engaged person can’t attend with someone else except their fiancee in need.

It’s just a birthday banquet and they expect her to show up with the emperor?

This was what Eleanora thought but she frozed as she heard Edmund’s words.

“There are rumors that your engagement is going to be cancelled because you are dating someone else... This is why i was shocked to get your letter!”

‘W-What?’

‘Dating?????? Me??? A homebody, dating someone and dare to cheat on the emperor?!’

Eleanora was literary shocked and speechless.

How could anyone spread such a rumor?

Her engagement is not cancelled yet but the cause is her dating someone else?!

‘To think such a rumor would spread... Was it because of that day when i ran away from the emperor in fear?’

But Eleanora was still calm outside no matter how panicked she was inside.

“This is just a rumour. There is no way am dating someone else while still being engaged with the emperor.

One need to show evidence before accusing.” 𝘧𝔯e𝗲𝙬ℯ𝙗𝓷o𝘷e𝗹.𝐜𝑜𝒎

Eleanora spoke calmly as she approched Edmund.

“Ah...it was just a rumour then...”

“I apologise, My lady.”

Edmund apologised as he bow down to Eleanora.

“It is alright, i will just find another partner.”

Eleanora spoke as she turned away but her expression become dark.

‘Of course, i should thank him instead as because of him i got to know the rumors about me... Just let me catch the person who spread the rumours!’

‘They are dead!!’

“AHHH! Are you an angle, My Lady?!”

Edmund suddenly stood up and spoke, making Eleanora surprise again.

“To think you would forgive my rudeness so easily... If i had meet the qualifications, i would have hold onto you!”

Eleanora was stunned to hear him.

‘Qualifications? of what?’

“My lady, perhaps we could share a meal-”

Edmund spoke as he suddenly took out a flower from his coat but stopped on his words and flinched as he felt the chill coming from the glass window.

“??!!”

.....

Alexander, who was leaning on the glass window glanced at Edmund fiercely.

‘Dare to share a meal with my daughter?’

Alexander’s blue eyes was cold.

As Eleanora was standing opposite, she didn’t saw her father and couldn’t understand Edmund’s sudden trembling.

“I apologise my lady!!! But i must go back right now!!”

Edmund spoke with his shaking legs and ran away from the dining room without even saying goodbye.

‘Why is he like that?’

Eleanora frowned because of Edmund’s action where Alexander kept glaring at Edmund till he left the room.

‘Both of them are crazy!’

Edmund thought as he stepped out from Dalton Residence.

Last night, He collapsed on the sofa as soon as Alexander left.

As he felt like the storm was finally over, a bigger storm come over right after a few moments.

“Y-Young master... H-His Majesty the emperor is here!”

“...”

‘WHAT??!!!!!!!!!!!’

‘WHY IS HIS MAJESTY HERE???!!!!!!’

And thus, Edmund again started to tremble as he asked the same question to the emperor that he asked to the duke.

“W-What...b-brings his majesty here...a-at this late night...here?”

But the emperor just simply stared at him silently without even touching the tea infront of him.

Cathain, who was choosing his clothes to wear in the birthday banquet as he will attend it as her fiancé was shocked to learn from his spy in the Dalton Residence that Eleanora sent an invitation to someone else.

He instantly felt so anger and hurt that he immediately left to see which man would make her choose another man over him.

But as Cathain saw and observed Edmund, he felt rather relieved.

“You are not her type. Direct disqualification.”

‘Only am qualified to stand beside her...’

The man infront of him look too feminine and his empress likes strong man’s.

A tall man with muscular body, a handsome face and who have honour, status, money, looks, ability- it’s just basically him.

Cathain felt a little happy as Eleanora’s ideal type is just like she was describing him.

‘That’s so romantic of her… she could just simply say that she wanted me. I would directly give her both my body and heart to her.

She must be shy to say that out loud… so she just wants me to understand her hidden meaning.’

Cathain thought as he blushed a little, which made Edmund more terrified then seeing him gloomy.

“Y-Your Majesty...?”

Edmund’s call finally bought Cathain back to the reality and he frowned.

‘Then why did she sent this girly man an invitation?’

The more Cathain thought about that, the more he realised that everything he thought of previously was just on his head.

And his expression become dark again.

‘Don’t tell me she is using me as a shield to avoid her marriage with someone else and at the same time, she is also trying to distance herself from me by attending the banquet with this Mr. Feminine?!!’

“Haah!”

Cathain sneered in realisation, which made Edmund swallow his saliva in fear.

‘So my little kitten has grown up her claws... Dare to use another wild cat to run away from her mate?’

Cathain stood up in frustration and looked at the person infront of him.

“You- Dare you to be her partner and your neck will be hanging on the imperial palace’s front gate to show. What’s your choice, Young master- whatever your name is...”

“…”

‘Did you even gave me a choice, Your majesty?!’

But that wasn’t something Edmund could say out loud. He weekly replied to the emperor.

“I-I...I will dec-decline her request!”

“YOU!! HOW DARE YOU TO DECLINE THE EMPRESS’S REQUEST?!”

“…”

‘Then what do you want me to do??????!!!’

“I-I will tell her that...”

“Tell her that you agreed to someone else’s request as she already have a partner.”

Cathain spoke without giving Edmund anymore chance to speak and left without even hearing his reply.

Where, Edmund felt like he wasn’t even alive anymore.

Just what is happening and why is this happening?

His only fault was to sent an invitation to the wrong person!!
