please don’t hesitate to tell me. Good night.”

I turned around, my skirt whooshing with my movement

as I did so. I needed to get out of here before I made a fool of

myself. Why was I even talking to him? He hadn’t said one

word to me. Why was he even opening the door every time I

got here? It was annoying and unnerving and I hated the way

he made me feel. Thankfully, my feet worked quickly and I

was o the porch and back in front of the cart in no time.

“Adeline.”

My heart ceased at the sound of my name coming from

his lips. I stopped walking. Stopped moving. Stopped

breathing. Somehow, I managed to turn around and face

him. Prince Elias was just walking down the last step when

my gaze met his.

“I’m having a party tomorrow night.”

“Oh.” I perked up. He was inviting me to one of his famous

parties?

“I’d love you to serve drinks for us.”

“Serve drinks?” I blinked. “I . . . um . . . I don’t think I’m

qualified to do that.”

I wasn’t a bartender. Besides, I didn’t do this. I didn’t

serve people or make them baskets or work parties I wasn’t

being paid to plan. I hired people for that. How in the world

had I found myself in this position? I didn’t expect Prince Elias

to know that but surely he knew I was wearing designer and

wasn’t meant to be his houseworker? Then again, his

nannies and house employees probably wore designer too.

The point was, I was usually invited to parties like these, not

working them.

“It doesn’t matter. I would appreciate your help and you

being there anyway.”

“I really can’t. I can hire someone to do it though.” I

smiled politely.

“I’d prefer it if you did it yourself.”
