Capítulo 28: Chapter 025 ( Begging for Peace )

As the saying goes, it is better to have many friends than to have many enemies. It is better to live in peace than to live in conflict. And... it's better to give a lot than receive a lot.

Isn't that saying a very good one?

But what became the problem afterward was, what should Monna do to Belhart when suddenly Belhart asked something that surprised her.

" You prepare lots of clothes for your workers. But you didn't prepare any for me? " Belhart asked Cattarina in his dictating and patenting manner.

Monna looked at him in confusion.

" Isn't it usually the palace tailors have prepared it for you? " asked Monna reasoned.

Why did she have to bother with the Crown Prince's clothes? Is that also part of her job?

After all, hasn't it been all this time, oh no, Monna's mean ... as long as they were married in her previous life, Belhart never liked it when Cattarina touched or even took care of all his belongings?

So, why does the Crown Prince look angry at her now? Had Cattarina done something wrong this time too? The fault that herself was confused, what is it?

Belhart looked at Cattarina with his cold eyes.

" You can even make clothes for Neil in a special way. But for me, you didn't make anything? " Belhart said in an unhappy mood.

Monna suddenly became worried.

" Do I need to design a dress for you too, Your Majesty? " Monna asked timidly, " Then I will ask Mrs. Woodoft to help me."

Mrs. Woodoft was a well-known court designer who used to make the essential garments of Emperors and Crown Princes.

" No needed! " refused Belhart.

" My clothes are ready. And you don't have to bother now, " replied Belhart very sharply.

Monna is stunned.

Is he in a bad mood because of something? But why? Are there any problems at work? Or, is it possible that he's in a disagreement with someone?

I have no idea. Even though Monna kept trying to guess it, not a single reason that she could find.

Until the day of the long-awaited Festival arrives, everyone cheers with joy.

After placing the candle floats for the first time on the Musoo river to say a prayer. Cattarina gave up her high hopes for the love and safety of her family on the river.

Then, when her candle had floated several meters away from her, all the women in the land of Geraldy sent their floating candles on the banks of the Musoo river following her cue.

A tradition that has been followed by Geraldy's country for years.

They believe sincere prayer will lead them to the realization of the hope that happens. Therefore, if their floating candle reached the edge of the river and was taken by the Gods, their hope would come true by itself.

That's what they believe.

And when Cattarina said her prayers to God, Belhart looked closely at her face. After seeing Cattarina float her candlelight into the river, Belhart asked her prayer.

" What are you begging for?" asked Belhart curiously.

Monna looked at him.

" Peace, " said Monna calmly.

Belhart just listened. But in his heart he asked what kind of peace Cattarina wanted.

Until it was time for the dance to start, Monna had disappeared somewhere in the middle of the event to get rid of her anxiety about being humiliated.

It doesn't matter if Belhart wants to dance with other women, whoever it is because Monna has already experienced it in the form of Cattarina. However, Monna doesn't want her family to be embarrassed at the event no matter what.

This is the first time her entire family has been together after she got married. Therefore, Monna does not expect any sadness to emerge from the faces of the people she loves the most.

So, if she wasn't at the dance right now, Monna was sure Belhart wouldn't have a chance to embarrass her.

Even in the true story, Belhart did that because he wanted revenge on Cattarina who had tricked him. And in Cattarina's life this time she had not done anything bad that would have upset Belhart.

However, the feeling of being afraid of the possible process made Monna feel very nervous.

Maybe, right, Monna accidentally pissed off Belhart like the other day about his clothes. Even after that, Belhart's normal behavior returns. But the fact that it is possible that Belhart already has special feelings for Alliesia cannot be avoided.

Monna recalls the incident a few days ago when she accidentally saw Belhart with Alliesia in her office alone. In Monna's eyes, they looked like they were talking about something very serious and intimated.

So, whether it's just her feelings, or in fact, it is like that. Monna doesn't want to see her family become worried and sad to see Belhart mistreating her at the party.

So, when she had a chance where her bodyguard, Neil, didn't notice, Monna slipped out of the hall to get some fresh air without anyone knowing.

If anyone is looking, she will just have to say that her body is not well. Because of that she could not stay longer in the palace hall and chose to rest right away.

Isn't that a brilliant idea? Monna entertained herself with pride.

But, someone found it.

" Catty? What are you doing here? Shouldn't you now start dancing with His Majesty the Crown Prince? Why are you alone here if you should be in the middle of the hall? " asked Mr. Shcoutz on Cattarina in the center of the gazebo.

Monna looked at her father.

" I'm just getting some fresh air, Father. As you know, too many people inside. I just want to rest myself for a moment, " explained Monna lied.

Monna looked around.

" Father is not with the mother? " Monna asked, changing the subject.

" Your mother is with Mrs. Steinder, a close friend. Because I saw that Crown Prince Dominic was looking for you, father came to help him. Come on, dear! The event will start soon. They can't wait long, " Mr. Shcoutz grabbed her daughter's arm and led her in.

Monna immediately panicked.
