Chapitre 90: Try harder (1)

Linda looked around to try spotting Hazel's return and finding where her brothers had wandered off to. Something was amiss since her brothers had left, but before asking her father any questions, Linda was more interested in trying to find her friend.

Linda wanted to show off that her best friend was now engaged to the prince, but she couldn't do that with Hazel not being in the ballroom. 

Linda tiptoed to look through the crowd at the person now arriving as a few heads had turned there. Her eyes widened as she saw that Edgar had arrived.
