Chapter 692 Sister, I'm Sorry (42)

With spring came news that the royal family would hold a masquerade ball at Brant Palace.

As soon as this news came out, it caused quite a stir among the nobles in the imperial city.

Ever since the news of His Majesty's serious illness came out last autumn, Brant's Palace hadn't been lively for a long time, and even the entire imperial city was lifeless.

Fortunately, spring is coming soon, everything is revived, and everything seems to be back to the brand new time.

When the royal family's invitation was officially issued, the dukes and noble families hurriedly began to prepare dresses for their young masters and ladies.

The best tailor shop in the imperial city was broken through, and Janice managed to grab a spot for her daughter Lily.

When she triumphantly lifted the hem of her skirt and was about to leave, the conversation of a few ladies in the corner caught her attention——

"Hey, you heard that the reason why His Majesty suddenly held this ball is for His Royal Highness Celia."

"Is it because you want to find the Crown Princess for His Royal Highness Celia? Didn't the news spread last year?"

"That's not true. It was His Royal Highness Celia who personally begged His Majesty to hold this ball. He said that he met a girl after Christmas last year. He never forgot her and wanted to use this to find someone."

"Really? How could His Highness Celia be so concerned about a woman?"

When Janice overheard the news, her heart skipped a beat.

But at the same time, I am also a little fortunate. If Her Royal Highness Celia has something to belong to, then it is absolutely impossible for Aisi.

After all, Mei Lin was extremely strict with her, and she would never be allowed to go out and meet any man.

But that night, when Sema came to her room from Bai Wu's side to report to her, she also mentioned this matter to her.

Janice was shocked, and hurriedly grabbed her hand:
"How do you know such a thing?"

Even she heard about it from other wives. Sema is a mere maid who stays by Miriam's side all day, how could she know about this kind of thing?
Sema pondered for a moment, then opened her mouth in some embarrassment.

"I also followed Miriel and eavesdropped on her conversation with Miss Iss, because after Christmas, Miss Miriel did go out with Miss Aiss, and what's more important."

Sema approached Janice in a deceptive way: "I also found out that His Royal Highness Celia is looking for a blonde lady in a blue dress this time, and said that she was overwhelmed by her beauty."

Janice's heart sank completely.

When Sema said this, she really remembered.

Her brother Resk did take the sisters out after Christmas.

However, he intended to bring only Miriel, but then Mei Lin forced Aisi to go too.

She clearly remembered that Ace was wearing a royal blue dress that day, and she was very pretty.

She was so jealous of that blonde hair.

Now that I think about it, Ai Si's move is really strange, if it is really to go out with her father, there is no need to go through such troubles.

It's clearly for someone's special opinion!
Maybe she and Mei Lin had found out about Her Royal Highness Celia's whereabouts in advance and deliberately went to meet her!

As soon as the idea had crossed Janice's mind, it kept her up at night.

She simply got up early the next morning, and went directly to Bai Wu with a pair of dark circles under her eyes.

Bai Wu had expected it a long time ago.

After all, she deliberately let Sema fabricate the truth in front of Janice just to wait for this moment.

So she pretended to be courteous and invited Janice to the living room, and thoughtfully made a cup of tea for her.

Janice couldn't wait any longer, she didn't even drink the tea, she directly took Bai Wu's hand and let her sit beside her.

"Honey, tell me the truth, what did your sister do when your father took you two out that day?"

Bai Wu lowered her head and thought for a while, then slowly said: "I don't know, my sister left when I was in the jewelry store, and I don't know what she did after that, maybe she went home."

It's impossible!

Janice groaned.

She remembered very clearly that day. Ace came back very late, she seemed to be worried, and ran into the room without even eating dinner.

Could it be that the person Her Royal Highness Celia is looking for is really her?
Bai Wu at the side had a panoramic view of Janice's angry and disturbed expression at the moment.

After slightly hooking her lips, she put down the teacup in her hand and looked at Janice pretending to be puzzled.

"Auntie, why did you suddenly ask this? Is it because you also heard that the reason why His Royal Highness Celia holds a ball is to find a lady he likes?"

Janice looked at her in surprise: "Even you know?"

Bai Wu nodded, and opened her mouth again, as if she was about to say something.

Janice saw the clue, squinted her eyes and squeezed her hand: "Honey, what else do you know?"

"Hmm..." Bai Wu showed a troubled look, "I promised my sister not to tell anyone."

[Ding—green tea passive skill triggers, wisdom +10! 】

elder sister?ace?
This Ace really has a problem!
After hiding the anger in her eyes, Janice leaned back to Bai Wu's side, persuading her with a more gentle tone.

"Good boy, don't you trust your aunt? You know that your aunt is so kind to you. Don't worry, I won't say such things."

Bai Wu pondered for a while, then nodded cautiously.

"Okay, Auntie, let me tell you."

"It's like this." She deliberately lowered her voice and looked very cautious, "When my sister came back that day, she pulled me into the room. She said that she met a man near the antique shop and was very moved, but You also know that my mother has always been strict, and she will definitely not allow my sister to continue to associate with that person."

As she spoke, Bai Wu sighed, as if she was sincerely sighing for Ai Si's love.

"So if His Royal Highness Celia can really hold this ball, maybe my sister can also meet that person at the ball and continue her relationship with him."

Hearing this, Janice was completely convinced that the woman Celia met was Ace!

A flame of resentment quickly gathered in her eyes, burning more and more intensely.

So she snorted coldly and said: "Millier, silly child, you are still kept in the dark by your sister, she didn't go out to accompany you, but to meet Her Royal Highness Celia, because Her Highness Celia is looking for you. She is the one!"

Bai Wu hurriedly made a surprised look: "How could it be? My sister."

"Ouch, my little fool." Janice flicked her head with her knuckles. "You're betrayed by your sister and you don't know it."

Janice didn't say anything else, just let Bai Wu think about it carefully, while she lifted her skirt and left in a hurry.

When going out, I just ran into a person head-on.

She was about to reprimand, but when she looked up, she found that it was Froze, and her angry face froze instantly.

Just a few days earlier, her brother Resk had been insinuating her not to go too far.

Is it because the kid knew that she had hired someone to sue Resk?
But isn't he a fool?How could it be possible to react?
Janice, who was preoccupied, didn't care too much about Froze, glared at him and left on high heels.

Froze lowered his eyes, and the eye feathers that were lightly covered by the forehead hair cast a small layer of shadow.

Miriel was right.

This Janice is really too much.

Let him think about how to punish such an excessive person.
