Capítulo 363: Talk With Theodor

"Sister Scarlett, you don't have to refuse it now," Theodor smiled. "The party is in a few days, so you can let me know if you decide to come..."

Scarlett nodded.

"And, just so you know, I've been inviting your husband every year, but he's always been out of Europe during the King's Birthday festival, so he has never attended. But I hope he can make it this year, especially since he is here," Theodor continued, his words making Scarlett feel guilty for initially declining the invitation.

"We will inform you later, Theo!" Xander chimed in, sensing his wife's uneasiness. He wanted to change the subject and ease the tension. But someone made it worse. It makes him speechless.

"Oh, Sir... Brother Theodor... Can I have the invitation instead?" Cruz suddenly voices his words. "I would love to attend the royal party. It's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for me. Please... please brother..." His eyes gleamed as he stared at Theodor, waiting for his answer.
