Chapitre 191: [Event] [Celesta Twins' Birthday] [4]

"It's because of him!"

I stared at Jayden's picture, my mind filled with questions. "What's the deal with him?"

Sylvia brushed back her platinum-blond hair and crossed her arms. "It's my father," she said, her voice tinged with frustration. "He gave me this picture and told me to try to establish a connection with him."

"So, King Charly is really planning to give you away to Jayden," I remarked sarcastically.

My father had always been fixated on elevating our family and the kingdom to greater heights, but I never imagined he would go so far as to involve Sylvia in his schemes.

Wait a minute.

"Weren't you promised to John?" I asked, recalling an earlier arrangement.

"Yes, I was, but my father changed his mind. He even gave me a picture of the Second Prince of the Arvatra Empire! He didn't even bother to ask for my opinion," Sylvia explained, her voice filled with sadness.
