Bab 254: A part of the family?

"Greetings to everyone," Elliana smiled and bowed to Abramo and Aubrey as soon as she walked to the dining table, and the elderly couple who were talking to their kids and grandkids, looked up with a pleasant smile.

"How are you feeling now, sweetheart? Please forgive us. We should've kept your health in mind and catered to you better," Aubrey said.

Elliana smiled before shaking her head in denial.

"It's no one's fault. Maybe I was too excited to meet you all, and then I danced non-stop so...." she smiled helplessly and childishly, making Aubrey smile.

"Well, welcome to our family's palace," Victoria smirked.

"The way you are saying it, sister Victoria, it's almost as if you want to make me feel that we are not part of the family. Since I am the daughter-in-law of the royals, shouldn't I be already a member?" Elliana asked cunningly, and the smile on Victoria's face froze.
