Chương 415: Birthday ball (2)

"Next year, I should hold a party for you with music and decorations just like this but without the large crowd," Alessandra said, taking in the beauty of the palace as they walked inside. No decorations resembled those from the previous ball and it was as if they walked into another palace. "They must have spent a lot of money on this ball. I can see why everyone was talking about it days ago."

"The town considers this ball to be the end of a season. You'll have to witness the horrible sight of young men and women trying to find a partner before the night ends. Mothers will be over their daughter's shoulders trying to push them into the arms of the best suitor in their eyes," said Edgar, recalling the torture it was for him.
