Chapter 233

Violet’s eyes narrowed slightly. Noticing this, Rajaden laughed and kissed her forehead.

It was too sudden. The touch on her forehead felt unfamiliar.

Before she could respond to the situation, Rajaden had quickly moved away.

“Then, I look forward to our next meeting.”

From start to finish, he had done as he pleased. Moreover, his parting words only added to the confusion.

The crown prince was being strange.

And finally, Violet could now pinpoint why exactly the crown prince was being strange.

“But what can I do? My heart has already been stolen.”

It was clear as day.

Suddenly, all the contradictions made sense.

Everything fell into place rapidly. Why hadn’t she thought of this before?

She berated herself as she stared blankly into space.

Why, indeed. It was because the other party was none other than Rajaden.

As he had said, it was indeed his karma—the consequences of his words and actions. Everything he said and did up until now had led to this.

Rajaden’s non-confession confession did not impress Violet much.

He has feelings for me? I see.

It was neither more nor less significant than that.

Perhaps because she had already discussed conclusions with Marchioness Leshan, her thoughts were neatly organized.

She had denied it before, but lately, she had been thinking of fleeing abroad.

With Aileen also making a fuss, perhaps it would be better to move to a quiet village in a foreign country and spend the rest of her life painting.

Language would be a challenge, but there wasn’t much that money couldn’t solve.

Suddenly, there was no reason for Violet to be moved by Rajaden. She had her own non-negotiables, and he had hit too many of them already.

“Why do you dislike me so much?”

“I never said I disliked you.”

“If you don’t dislike me, does that mean you like me?”

What a leap in logic. Violet sighed deeply.

“I have no personal feelings. I simply do not feel anything towards you.”

“So you don’t dislike me, right?”

“May I speak frankly?”

“No. Just filter it and tell me moderately.”

“Then I will hold my words.”

An inconsequential conversation ensued.

Despite Violet expressing her disapproval, Rajaden continued to smile, seemingly pleased.

Having no personal feelings didn’t mean dislike, and not disliking presumably meant liking. This line of logic would shock scholars into fainting.

Violet consistently ignored him. She was the only one getting exhausted because he kept taking her rejection nonchalantly.

After starting the portrait work of the crown prince, Violet was harassed both inside and out.

As rumors spread that she and the crown prince had been seen together, it became an accepted fact that Violet S. Everett would become the crown princess.

Among those concerned was Roen.

“Are you really okay?”

“What’s there to not be okay about?”

“Violet. That guy is more cunning than you think. Let’s stop the portrait work now. I’ll talk to Her Majesty the Empress.”

“I’m really alright. Rather, I’d appreciate it if you looked for a place where I could seek asylum.”

“......”
