Chapter 375 - 372: Dinner At The Palace II
Frederick's eyebroitched What was he to say in response to that? He has never encountered a wousted, he just decided to shut up and look the other way What use was there to squabble with such a woh at Frederick's reaction Although he has obvious distaste towards Geoffrey, he seems too stupid to be his match
Anyhow, after a few minutes the 3rd wife, princess consort Daniella arrived She was still young at 24, and quite a beauty to boot She was a brunette with hazel eyes and pale skin A pity for her to be ain, it was better than enerate without a nobler title Co himself, so maybe not that bad of a deal for her?
The brothers did not bother with her and just pointedly ignored her Without their father in the room, they all outranked her anyway as her title was only princess consort Aside from that, it was fairly weird for them to call her mother or princess consort She was not that old compared to them In fact, she would pass as their older sister literally, ith her being only 2 years older than Geoffrey
Serena whose eyes ave a friendly smile What use was there to prove superiority to a woh? She also seemed nice
Princess consort Daniella also s friendly
Frederick who saw the exchange snorted Geoffrey's as stupid Daniella ht see at that age if she wasn't ah?
Then, Queen Loretta and Queen consort Floresca arrived alave way and let the Queen enter first Seeing her, Geoffrey greeted with a "Mother" cordially The other two princes gave her a somewhat forced bohile Daniella curtseyed
Serena was about to curtsy and also greet her as "Mother" but the queen stopped her
"No need to curtsy to me, we are family" The queen said only to her as the queen consort entered the rooe, last ti warm But then, she saw the queen consort entered, and the Queen gave her a look which for Serena looked somewhat like a provocation She now understood why the queen did not make her curtsy to her, it was so that she won't curtsy to the queen consort
The queen consort, a woman in as 3 years the queen's junior, was calm and did not mind the queen She even smiled at Serena and welcoreeted the queen consort politely which caused the queen to frown and give her the eye like she betrayed her
Serena saw the queen's expression from the corner of her eye
'Okay… was this like… a palace battle, wo's affection while at the sa akin to a battle for the crown? What for? Why would anyone want the responsibility when they can just becoenerates and spend money like it was dirt? Geoffrey was already the established crown prince, so what's the hold up?' Serena thought
She looked at Geoffrey in askance
