Chương 572: Don't keep me waiting

It did not surprise Aries that Marsella was inside her chambers in the Hyacinth Palace. Marsella was her lady-in-waiting — every candidate needed one. However, although she ignored Abel at first, in the back of her head, she was wondering how Abel and Conan were inside her chambers. 

Did anyone notice them coming into her room? Those types of questions lingered in her head. But now, she was slightly reassured that Abel had his way to meet Aries secretly. 

Aries perched on Abel's lap as instructed. She rested her arms over his shoulders, staring at his sinful beauty in silence. 

"So?" he cocked his head to the side. "Tell me about this new friend of yours."

"You already knew about it, didn't you?" she narrowed her eyes, pouting. "You heard me. Princess Veronika was Violet and Ismael's friend. She came here to support me and have my back, knowing this game you came up with can be dangerous in the long run."
