“I don’t like how distracted you sound. This is the event
you’ve been waiting for your entire career,” she said. “Please
don’t tell me you’re going to pass up being there on account
of the leaked video.”
“I’ll be there, Mother.” I shut my eyes and took a deep
breath.
“Good. Can you meet Joss and me in Versailles this
upcoming weekend?”
“Sure.”
“Splendid,” she said and I could tell she was smiling
wide. “I’m so incredibly excited about this and you should be
too. Your hard work has paid o and that nonsensical video
didn’t deter them from hiring you.”
“They probably didn’t hear about it.”
“Trust me, the Crown hears about everything.”
My stomach coiled. Did that mean Prince Elias had heard
about it? And if so, why did I care? He didn’t even remember
me. I finished talking to my mother and tried to sound as
enthusiastic as I could about the entire thing, but part of me
really didn’t want to have any part in an event like that.
What did impending engagement even mean? Would he
propose at the party? If so, to whom? And again, why did I
care?
