Bab 127: Even greater

With a shaky breath, Evie steeled herself and looked ahead. She was not going to cry. This was the time for her to be strong because Gavriel wasn't beside her now. And she promised him she'd be fine. So she will not cry and crumble because she knew Gavriel was doing the same, knowing how much he struggled for him to leave her. She took another steadying breath and straightened her back, gathering all the courage that she had and looked ahead with a determined gaze.

'You can do this Evie. Everything will be alright again…you just need to be strong and weather through this…' she was whispering to herself when she felt a light tap on her shoulder.

When she turned, the duchess was smiling at her. "Don't worry too much Princess. Everything will be alright. All of us here are vouching for you and will stand behind you." She said with a motherly smile and Evie took another deep breath before smiling back at her.
