A Cue For Love Chapter 1062
Chapter 1062 Destined To Be His Fiancee
As it was Heidi’s first time attending a royal banquet, she was shocked by the grand and luxurious
decor in the hall.
She got so distracted that she didn’t hear Geert and Helma whispering behind her.
“Father, why is Prince Jonathan being so cold to me? Do you think something’s going to happen during
the engagement today?” Helma asked worriedly.
“Of course not! Bastien is a prince, so he can’t be flirting with you on such a formal asion! He’s not
being cold, Helma. He’s being formal and dignified,” Geert replied sternly.
Helma bit her lip. “But—”
“That’s enough, Helma. Lady Frieda has made her intentions very clear with her words and attitude
toward you, so you have nothing to worry about!” Geert cut her off impatiently.
I feel Bastien is just being gentle toward me. I don’t think he has any feelings for me, but Father said
Lady Frieda likes me, so I guess I should stop worrying about it. Maybe I am really just overthinking it.
Regardless, I’m destined to be Bastien’s fiancée after tonight!
Helma was snapped out of her train of thought when Geert patted her on the shoulder. “Stop worrying
about it, Helma. There will be countless eyes on you tonight, so you need to stay focused. Don’t screw
this up, or you’ll ruin the reputation of both your mother and the Leitz family. Is that understood?”
Helma nodded solemnly. “I understand, Father. I won’t dishonor our family name.”
Having gotten an eyeful of the luxurious decor, Heidi turned around and broke into a wry smile when
she saw the two of them whispering among themselves.
Heh… Father always ces Helma’s and the Leitz family’s interests above everything else. Because of
that, Mother and I have always had to makepromises. I wouldn’t even be putting up an act here
with them if I didn’t need their power to get my revenge on Natalie!
Momentster, the king of Loang made a grand appearance in the banquet hall with lots of servants
escorting him.
The guests all bowed respectfully to him as he made his way toward the throne.
Frieda, and his other two wives, Shirley rke and Cynthia Holton, were all seated beside him.
Although the king of Loang no longer had a huge harem like his predecessors, he was still allowed to
have multiple wives. Each of his wives was equal in status and only differed in age.
Mikhail Scholl had four wives, but the first one had died from an illness, so only three remained.
His four wives had given birth to ten children, four of which were male and six of which were female.
Therefore, the royal family had four princes and six princesses.
The guests waited until the king was seated before standing up straight.
Bastien walked up to Mikhail and said with a bow, “Greetings, Father.”
“There are plenty of decent, unmarried girls at the party tonight. Did you find any of them to your
liking?” Mikhail asked with a smile.
“Yes, Father.”
“You’re the only one among your siblings who is not married yet. Tonight, I shall help you out with that.
Your mother has been pestering me about getting you a wife, so I figured I’d take care of it on your
birthday.”
“Thank you, Father,” Bastien replied while clenching his fists tightly. He had long since made up his
mind on the matter.
Natalie felt an inexplicable sense of helplessness when she was brought to the banquet hall.
The royal family was so secretive that even someone of Jerome’s rank wasn’t entitled to an event like
this.
It’s as if I’m being locked in a huge, luxurious cage… It may give off the illusion that you can do
whatever you like, but the fact remains that it is still a cage. There is no actual freedom. If you try to
spread your wings, you’ll only hurt yourself by crashing into the cage walls.
“Are you sure I should be here? Could there have been some kind of mistake?” Natalie asked
Sebastian anxiously.
“You may rest assured that this is no mistake, Ms. Nichols. This is all part of Prince Jonathan’s
instructions. All you have to do is wait patiently,” Sebastian replied politely.Published by N?v''elD/rama.Org.
