Chapter 50: Congratulations

It was the night of the King's ball and Nesta was getting ready, excitement evident on every part of her. She could not remember the last time she was that happy. The events of the day till that moment she was getting ready were coming back to her, from her mood being the most sour in the whole of her father's estate because of last night's incident to Quinn's early morning gift of beautiful flowers which lifted her spirits, down to the exhausting task of attending to uninteresting young lords, even Lillian would agree with her if she were to ask her what she thought of the men that came calling during the day. As if the day could not get any better, she could not believe that the wretched woman came back to confess her sins before the king.
