Chapter 181 - Should Be Mine (2) (2/2)

“Where is Sarah at this moment? I would look better if she was in front of me…”

Helen looked down at Tilda again with a frown.

“You, find Sarah and bring her to me.”

“N-now?”

“Hmm. You can go find Sarah’s carriage later.”

“Y-yes, I understand.”

“Don’t speak to me twice.”

As Helen’s irritation flared, Tilda quickly shut her mouth. Helen hated exchanging words with lower-class servants for any extended period of time.

Finally, the carriage stopped completely. Helen rearranged the sneer on her face and stepped out of the carriage with a gentle smile. Tilda was accustomed to Helen’s moods, and withdrew in fear as she looked at the lady’s retreated back.

Ttogag ttogageu—

Helen was greeted by nobles from all sides as she entered the party.

“Oh, is that Lady Selby? She looks absolutely stunning.”

“Where did she get that dress? Oh my god, it’s so beautiful.”

No one would dare speak ill of the queen’s lady-in-waiting. Helen wore a proud smile on her face as she walked through the hall.

“It’s no use telling you were I got the dress. It’s so expensive it that not anyone can buy it.”

Some people froze awkwardly at Helen’s words, but soon the nobles smiled like proper society folk. As Helen sensed the eyes of countless aristocratic men on her, her spirits soared.

‘Where is the Crown Prince?’

She wanted to show Carlisle this beautiful image of herself. Helen was talking a solitary stroll through the party when—

Beolkeog!

The entrance door opened, and a man shouted in a loud voice.

“Their Highnesses the Crown Prince and Crown Princess are here!”

All men and women in the room bowed down to greet Carlisle and Elena as they entered the room. Carlisle was a grand sight, but Elena even more so. Helen clutched at her bosom as she looked at Carlisle’s handsome figure.

‘That position should be mine.’

It should be her next to Carlisle, not Elena. Carlisle and Elena looked beautiful enough to make her jealous, but today Helen felt that she wasn’t far behind. The amount of money she poured into her current dress and jewelry was astronomical.

Helens’s heart pounded in excitement as she touched the bracelet on her wrist, specially designed to pour aphrodisiac when it was turned.

And tonight…

She would make Carlisle her own.
