Bab 526: 13.24

"Happy birthday, Jean!" Everyone congratulated Little Jean, who was wearing his best formal attire for his birthday. 

"Yay! Thank you, everyone!" Little Jean was so energetic, he jumped few times, almost released himself from Maximillien's arms. Maximillien warned Little Jean not to be too excited because he might fall.

The guests were singing happy birthday for Little Jean, though there were not many official guests. Because Maximillien was worried that they might use Little Jean for their advantage later. Because Little Jean was just too innocent for his own good. He wasn't trained to be noble like the rest of the noble kids.

Little Jean's fiancee, Raphael De Argent, Matthew Moulin, who was personally invited by Little Jean, and few magistrates in the Archduchy attended the party. 

The rest of the guests were just the servants and guards working in the Palace of Eau Saumont. 

"Big brother, can I blow the candle now?" Little Jean asked.
