Chapter 418 I Remember You, Martha
Alain's eyes darkened, and he looked sideways at Louis who was standing aside.
In the next second, he said something shocking in front of everyone.
"Count Caesar, your sister is quite impressive, I like her very much."
Daisy blushed when she heard this and shyly lowered her head while stealing glances at Alain. Shedidn't expect him to praise her so openly in front of everyone..
Does this mean he likes me? Daisy began to fantasize about becoming a queen someday.
It wasn't until Daisy felt a nudge on her arm from a friend that she snapped out of it and looked up atAlain with shyness still evident on her face.
"Prince Ducasse, you're flattering me, I'm not as good as you say."
Alain frowned slightly upon hearing this but quickly masked his expression before looking over atMartha who stood nearby.
If it weren't for being in public now, he would have just had the soldiers kick Daisy out.
He walked towards Daisy with deep eyes, passed by her, and stopped directly in front of Martha.
"I remember you, Martha."
Martha couldn't help but tighten the hand hanging by his side upon hearing those words. She didn'twant anyone remembering or noticing someone like herself. She doesn't want to be remembered atall.
She knew Daisy must be furious seeing how lowly someone like herself dared steal PrinceDucasse's attention away from Daisy.
Daisy narrowed her eyes slightly, while looking daggers towards Martha who stood nearby withresentment written all over her face.
She would make sure that this despicable woman would never show up again in front of PrinceDucasse!
At this moment, the sound of drums suddenly echoed through the hall, and everyone turned to look.The drumming signaled the start of today's palace banquet. The counts and dukes with theirrespective ranks would stand in their positions, waiting for the new prince to come forward for hisascension ceremony.
After Alain took a deep look at Martha, he turned and walked towards the back hall of the palacebanquet, preparing to take the throne.
The palace banquet was about to start, so Louis should naturally go to the front hall to watch theceremony, and the females in the banquet hall didn't need to go to the front hall to watch theceremony, they just had to wait in the banquet hall.
Before Louis left, he walked towards Martha worriedly, stood in front of the latter, and warned in adeep voice.novelbin
"No matter what happens next, don't act rashly. We'll talk about everything when I come back."
Martha frowned slightly, and looked at her cousin standing in front of her with a face of resistance.
Since she knew the truth of the matter, she no longer trusted Louis as much as before.
Louis saw the resistance in Martha's eyes, smiled helplessly, and spoke again with a much softervoice.
"Be a good girl, don't walk around casually, and don't leave here easily."
Martha standing in front of him lowered her eyes, did not look at him or speak. But Louis could feelMartha's feelings.
Yet now was not the time to talk about this.
After a second round of drumming, the succession ceremony soon began.
The counts stood in unison with the dukes and other ministers, and began paying respects towardstheir new king.
While the succession ceremony was being held in the front hall, the females in the banquet hallwere discussing.
Ever since Louis left the banquet hall to go to the front hall, Martha stood there and looked ateverything around her coldly.
She could feel that she was out of tune with everything here.
As for the females standing around Martha, because they saw the way Alain treated Martha justnow, Alain seemed to intend to let her be the queen.
It was very unpleasant for those females to look at Martha at this moment; they all wished Marthawould disappear in the banquet hall.
Lina, who was standing on Daisy's left before, fluttered her eyelashes, walked towards the longtable with a smile, picked up a glass of red wine and walked towards Martha.
"Lady Martha, my name is Lina. I was the one who spoke rudely just now. Now I am deeply awareof my inappropriate behavior. I hope you can forgive me for my recklessness just now."
Martha looked at the wine glass handed over by the other party coldly, without any intention oftaking it.
She shook her head slightly, and said indifferently, "Sorry, I don't know how to drink."
Over the years abroad, she had socialized quite a lot, and she was a good drinker.
But the wine here, especially the wine handed over by others, she dare not try lightly.
With the lesson of Daisy's incense, Martha was very defensive about everything here.
Lina looked at Martha standing in front of her in feigned shock, not caring about her indifference atall.
"Lady Martha, you can't drink? Are you kidding me?"
"Sorry, I really don't know how to drink."
Martha looked at the woman in front of her indifferently, still maintaining her own indifference.
She didn't think that Lina really came to apologize. Maybe this woman had other purposes?
At this moment, Lina took a step forward, and her smile widened unconsciously.
"This wine has a very mellow aroma. It is a famous wine cellar collection brand in the suburbs. Justtry a little bit. I guarantee that you will never forget this taste after drinking it."
Martha frowned, and she took a step back, her voice became a little bit colder.
"Lady Lina, if you like it, you can drink this glass of mine together."
When Lina standing opposite her heard this, her golden pupils were a little astonished, as if shedidn't expect her to say that.
Now that she was standing in front of Martha, she wouldn't let Martha get away easily.
Soon, Lina restored the smile on her face, took a step forward, and smiled even brighter.
"Lady Martha, you must be joking, this is the wine as my apology to you, how can I drink it myself?"
"I don't drink."
The look in Martha's eyes turned gloomy, and she refused indifferently.
But Lina acted as if she didn't hear it, and stepped forward again, smiling and handing over the wineglass she was holding.
"It's really tasty, try it."
Just when Martha was backing away, Lina pretended to accidentally spill it on Martha's dress, andat the same time let out a cry of surprise.
"Ah!"
Then Lina curled her lips, pretending to be guilty, and looked at Martha standing in front of her withan apologetic face.
"Sorry, sorry Lady Martha, I really didn't mean to."
"I just want you to taste this wine; I never thought it would spill on you."
Daisy, who stood aside and watched the two of them, saw that Martha's beautiful dress was dirty,and a sneer appeared on the corner of her mouth unconsciously.
'Let's wait and see what can she do!'
