Chapter 133

The Marriage Of The Crown Prince And His Wife (5)

She couldn’t hold a fork because she had cream on her hands.

After Cecil left, the maids entered the dressing room. There was still time until the wedding, but from their point of view, the schedule was tight.

After the massage, the wedding dress was put on top of the underwear. Her makeup was minimal, and the crown princess’s tiara was put on her head.

Rowena moved her legs lightly, looking at the maid putting on her shoes. Despite suffering again in the morning, she felt like she could walk on her own legs.

“Milady.”

Pina gave Rowena a potion with a determined face. She said Cecil sent it.

“I… This is not just about recovering your physical strength, but also about nutritional strength…”

Rowena almost dropped the potion bottle at the addition. Rowena didn’t have to be wary of other maids, but she became embarrassed for no reason.

“Y-yes.”

Rowena gulped down the medicine and returned the empty bottle to Pina. Even though it was a potion she used to take occasionally, it seemed to work right away because it was hard to obtain unless you were a member of the royal family.

“Your Highness.”

The maids brought a mirror for Rowena. Rowena was relieved when she checked herself. It was a design that covered the top of her neck, so nothing was visible.

Knock, knock.

Outside the door, the attendant was carefully knocking on the door.

“Your Highness, it’s almost time for the ceremony to begin.”

Rowena looked back at the maids at the words of the attendant. They put a veil over Rowena’s head and finished preparing to follow.

Rowena’s chest, as she took a deep breath, swelled and sank lightly.

“Let’s go.”

Rowena walked briskly like a general on the battlefield.

Paul, who is supposed to have publicly declared that he would share the sins of his eldest son, was unable to attend the wedding. In fact, perhaps because Cecil got Paul out of the way, Rowena’s reputation among the nobles was still not considered bad.

It was because Paul was mistaken for a good parent who even gave up his title to cover up his child’s faults.

“Rowena…”

So today, it was Theo who held Rowena’s hand. Theo, now Count of Adelia, looked great in his suit.

Because of having the title of count and being the older brother of the Crown Princess, Theo was a rising groom among the young ladies.

It was different from Matthias, who was shunned due to his violent temperament.

Until now, even though Matthias’ appearance was outstanding, he had nothing, so he couldn’t attract the attention of young ladies. However, things were different now. Even now, ladies were giving a secret look at Theo.

Are things going well with the young lady of Marquis Rasmine?

His body was thought to have fully recovered. But because of Paul’s reputation, the Marquis couldn’t openly talk about her engagement to Theo.

The Marquis of Rasmine, like the Marquis of Wenson, had only one daughter. It was not a bad condition for this side because he was thinking of having his son-in-law succeed his title.

He could hand over the Count title to Louis.

“You’re pretty, Rowena.”

Theo spoke to Rowena with a soft voice. Rowena’s expression at Theo eased.

“…Thank you, brother.”

They were now the only three siblings in the world. He had no reason to find faults with them, since Paul wouldn’t step in and stir things up between them.

Theo’s face became brighter at Rowena’s answer.

He felt a sense of debt to Rowena. After Matthias did that, he didn’t even know he felt the responsibility of being the eldest son.

“Then… shall we go?”

Rowena gladly took the extended hand. Cecil was waiting at the end of the wedding hall. Just looking at him made her heart pound.

Her legs trembled a little, but the shoes worn by Rowena were comfortable.

How rare this pretty, comfortable shoe is!

Cecil, however, managed to find a craftsman who could do it, and ordered him to make the shoes of the crown princess.

The long skirt of the wedding dress wouldn’t even show it anyway, but Rowena loved it and took a step.

Theo, walking side by side with Rowena, thought only that Rowena was nervous and trembling.

When they walked to the end of Virgin Road and reached Cecil’s front, he proudly reached out his hand. Theo was relieved to think that this moment had finally come.

Because of Matthias’ crazy plan and his father Paul, who somehow runs wild to benefit from this marriage, it was Theo who wondered if she could get into the wedding hall properly.

“My sister… I wish you well.”

When Theo unexpectedly said this, Rowena looked at him in surprise. Cecil remembered that he suffered a stab wound while fighting Matthias.

“Your sister will be protected and happy by my side. Now, and in the future.”

Cecil’s serious words came as Theo gave Rowena’s hand to him.

Theo has already seen the two together. Rowena loved him, and Cecil also… He was incredibly in love with Rowena.

So it was enough.
