"Your Highness Sean, it's really you!" Sofia said in surprise.
On the way to the dinner, Sofia had a premonition that she would see Sean, but she didn't expect that she actually did!
Feeling Sean rubbing her head again, two blushes suddenly appeared on Sophia's face:
"I received an invitation to Miss Jessica's dinner, so I came. By the way, have you read the book I gave you last night in detail?"
"I have read that book, thank you, Sophia!" Sean gratefully took Sophia's hand.
If it weren't for the information sent by Sophia, Sean might not have known about the other party's conspiracy until Brody came to the door!
Sean looked around and found that no one was eavesdropping on their conversation, so he whispered to Sophia:
"The book you gave me is very useful to me. I originally wanted to go to the station of your mercenary group to say thank you, but I was busy today, so I didn't go."
"No... no need, Your Highness Sean, this is what we should do." Sofia gently broke away from Sean's hand, the blush on her face had spread to her ears.
"Anyway, thank you for sending me this book. The small print in the book is really amazing!" Sean gave Sophia a thumbs up.
But at this point, Sean suddenly remembered something.
Gabe handed him a note when he walked in. He seemed to have forgotten to read it while he was just eating!
We must first think of a way to read the contents of this note.
.....
Sean looked around again.
The dance floor directly opposite was relatively empty without any obstruction; there were many people in the dining area where he was, and the dining table was tightly wrapped with a white tablecloth, which was not suitable for him to secretly check the note.
There is no other way. If you want to read the note, you can only use Windsor's burly body to cover it.
But having said that, he was only busy chatting with Sophia and hadn't heard Windsor's voice for a while.
Sean looked around, only to find that Windsor was surrounded by a group of nobles at the entrance of the hall.
Sean was shocked and immediately wanted to rescue Windsor.
But after observing the group of nobles surrounding Windsor, Sean found that these nobles were not malicious, because many of them were holding a piano and were eagerly asking Windsor various questions.
:
"Excuse me, do you have any secrets for playing the piano so well?"
"I'm your fan, can you teach me how to play the piano?"
"Do you have any other music scores? I'll pay a high price for them!"
"I heard that your piano skills are the best in the country. Can you play a short piece to enhance our knowledge?"
...
Some nobles even forcibly gave the piano to Windsor.
Seeing Windsor struggling to deal with the nobles, Sean shook his head helplessly.
It seems Windsor is unreliable.
Windsor was unreliable, so he could only rely on Sophia in front of him.
...
"Sofia, I have something to tell you."
As Sean spoke, he quickly approached Sophia, and then stopped twenty centimeters away from the two people.
"Your Highness Sean, you...what do you want to do?"
Seeing Sean approaching quickly, Sophia was startled.
Doesn’t His Highness Sean want to...? It’s not very good here, right?
Sophia's heartbeat began to accelerate and her breathing became a little panicked.
"It's okay, I just think you are so cute today!"
Sean combed Sophia's hair with his left hand, took out the note Gabe gave him from his pocket with his right hand and opened it quickly.
Looking intently at the note, there were only two big words on the note: "Praise me!"
Sean: "???"
Sean thought he was dazzled, but after looking carefully, he saw that there were indeed only these two words on the note.
Sean's heart suddenly felt like ten thousand alpacas rushing past.
I thought Gabe was conveying some important information with the note, but unexpectedly Gabe just reminded Sean not to forget to praise him in front of Jessica.
Is he such a forgetful person?
Well, it seems...it's true.
If it weren't for Gabe's note reminding him, Sean would have forgotten to praise Gabe in front of Jessica.
Thinking of this, Sean's head was filled with black lines.
...
When Sophia saw Sean's face only 20 centimeters away from hers, not only was her heart pounding, but her breathing became rapid.
Sophia closed her eyes nervously, her mind went blank, and her hands rubbed the corners of her clothes uneasily.
But after a while, she didn't feel any movement from Sean.
So Sophia opened her eyes in confusion, only to find that Sean had returned to the dining table and picked up the dinner plate.
"Sofia!" Sean greeted Sofia while eating: "The dish with six fish heads stuck on the flatbread is called 'Looking at the Starry Sky'. Are you interested in trying it?"
Sophia: "..."
...
...
The scene came to the host of the dinner, Jessica River.
Jessica had been unhappy since the afternoon, thinking about Brody and Sean over and over in her mind.
After several contacts with Sean and learning that the "Tornado Belt" was the birthday gift Brody planned to give her, Jessica's mentality changed.
Emotionally speaking, she was a little reluctant to kill Sean, and she also didn't want to use Brody anymore;
But from a rational perspective, this must be done for the benefit of the family.
The contradiction between emotion and reason makes Jessica feel tortured, but there is nothing she can do about it.
So Jessica had no energy all afternoon.
...
Until the evening, Jessica still didn't think about what to do, but she still worked up the energy to attend the dinner.
When attending dinner parties before, Jessica dressed very simply and plainly.
Because aristocratic dresses are very cumbersome to put on, and the entire makeup process would take nearly an hour. Jessica didn't want to waste time on it, so she dressed very simply.
But today was different. Jessica not only put on a luxurious velvet dress and a full set of makeup, but also specially sprayed some rose perfume that Sean gave her.
Jessica also did this to promote the perfume. Only dressing up in this way can achieve better publicity effect.
...
Sure enough, because of Jessica's unusually luxurious dress and the charming fragrance of the perfume, Jessica attracted the attention of almost all the nobles not long after she came from the room to the castle hall.
The nobles present all praised Jessica:
"Miss Jessica, you are so beautiful today!"
"Lady Jessica, congratulations on becoming the family's affairs officer!"
"Why do you smell like roses? Is it some special spice?"
"Where can I buy this kind of spice? I want to buy some too!"
...
In addition to Brody, several other Jessica's suitors also gathered around, complimenting Jessica constantly and asking her where she bought her special spices.
However, Jessica did not answer these nobles, but smiled and shook her head: "I will tell everyone when the dinner officially starts."
