The Terrific Crown Prince

A Party In The Palace

“Mom, it seems like it is. doesn't she really love me?” Agatha cheered happily. “Oh!” she even covered her mouth unable to utter any more words for a few moments. "Mom, will I be the crown princess soon?"

"Oh honey, I'm so proud of you my Lady." Mrs. Samuel did not forget to give a bowing gesture as if respecting Agatha.

"What are you guys waiting for? Quickly find the best dress. You have to look awesome tonight to be the prettiest. You must show that you are worthy of Prince Luke's company. Don't forget that you will also meet the Queen, your mother-in-law." Mr. Samuel smiled happily at his daughter. “Oh, finally all our debts can end easily. Luke would have no problem paying off all of Philip's family debts. According to Samuel, Luke had been living in his house for four years. He has the right to ask for compassionate fees.

One by one the invited guests began to enter one of the grandest halls of the Puissance palace. Invitations are very limited. Not everyone can attend it. Only selected people from among the nobility or wealthy conglomerates. Several others were special invitations from Prince Luke.

This is the first time the Crown Prince has appeared in public in dozens of years. No wonder the party is getting livelier and more magnificent. Throughout his life, the prince had never participated in royal events, naturally not much was known about him. Many rumors are circulating about him who tonight will get an answer after many questions in everyone's head.

Agatha and her parents smiled happily. She was wearing her best dress with a low slit on the back that showed how beautiful the woman's body was. don't forget her hair which is deliberately bun to show her beautiful long neck. A diamond necklace is also coiled around her neck. Not too expensive but very luxurious when worn by a woman as beautiful as Agatha. Out of all the invitees present tonight, Philip's family were the only ones who already knew the crown prince's identity.

"Agatha, I didn't expect to see you again." Olivia accidentally bumped into her as she was about to enter the hall.

Agatha lifted her face very arrogantly. Tonight she was a lot more confident than the Pouvwa Tech corporate party a few days ago. She was confident that she would silence the mouths of many who insulted her. It's time for her four-year revenge to happen. She couldn't wait to see Olivia's pale face tonight.

“I know that I always manage to surprise people. Oliv, you must be so envious of me.” Agatha smiled contemptuously at Olivia as usual. Olivia replied with the same expression.

“I was worried about you, Agatha. As someone who has known you since childhood.” Olivia didn't forget to put on a mocking face. Her words are always inversely proportional to the expression.

The difference was that Agatha wasn't intimidated at all today. “Yeah, that's why I know for a fact that you could never beat me this long. You must know that I am always overflowing with good luck. I ranked first in class and I was once the most beautiful and popular in school. I still remember the time when you tried so hard to be my friend so you could also get some attention.”

Olivia laughed as a form of defense against her pride. "After you married that good-for-nothing man, everyone knew that you weren't that perfect, Agatha."

Agatha sighed sadly worrying about Olivia with a very exaggerated expression. “Olivia, as your friend, I have a suggestion that you should be careful with the words you use. I'm afraid you'll get in trouble with that.”

Olivia snorted ignoring Agatha's words not caring. "Why did you come here tonight? Did you tempt Victor again to accompany him?”

Agatha chuckled. “Do you think you are not worthy of an invitation from the palace?” Agatha took out her invitation. Then she gave the invitation to the bodyguard standing at the door. Olivia didn't hold back nor dropped her jaw. She was very surprised to see Agatha get a special invitation from the crown prince. Much classier than the usual palace invitations that Olivia had.

“As a naratetama guest, you deserve the best table, miss. Let me deliver." There were even staff who bowed very politely to welcome Agatha.

“Can I bring my friend to that table?” Don't forget to ask Agatha a question.

"Of course. as a special invitation we will treat you in the best way possible. How many extra seats do you need miss?”

Agatha was even more arrogant when she heard that her request was welcomed by the staff. She was increasingly convinced that Luke had forgiven her. “Only one person for Olivia.” Not forgetting to point at Olivia who was nearby.

The staff saw Olivia's invitation then replaced it with a special card to identify the invitation from the crown prince. "Okay! I'll have it ready soon. Is there anything else you need miss?”

Agatha shook her head. “No.”

The staff nodded his head. He did his job as best he could. Some special chairs and tables that are very close to the queen and crown prince. "You can call me again when you need something miss."

Agatha nodded her head. not forgetting to wave her hand arrogantly while Olivia was still pensive. She still couldn't utter a single word to express her surprise. “Agatha, how did you get this special invitation? Even I who is one of the nobles doesn't get it.” Olivia couldn't keep her mouth from asking.

Agatha chuckled. "There isn't any. It's just that luck has always been on my side.” Olivia glanced at Victor who was also attending tonight's party. But that boy was a bit far from the Queen and crown prince. Agatha couldn't have gone with Victor like that. Victor was also surprised to see the sitting position of Agatha and Olivia. Olivia could only shrug her shoulders to explain the current situation to Victor.

“Ladies and gentlemen, the Queen and Crown Prince enter the room.” The announcement was made immediately after all the invitees were present in the hall. Everyone immediately stood up to welcome the leader in the city. The Queen first entered the room with a graceful face despite her middle age. A figure that has long been recognized by his people as a wise figure and a friendly leader without reducing some firmness.

Behind her, the long awaited Crown Prince appeared in his proud robes. Only one and specially printed made of the finest clothing materials. His appearance was very dashing and mighty.

Bugh! Olivia almost fainted after seeing the figure of Prince Luke.

"Are you all right, lady Olivia?" Luke asked Olivia while holding out his hand in a manly manner.

Olivia choked. Luke remembers it all too well. The woman's face was very pale at this time. She remembered all the rough things she had done to Luke. Like a cinema playing fast in her head. Olivia immediately cursed her bad luck inside.

“Lady Olivia, are you all right?” Luke repeated his question once again. Instantly cynical glances flowed at Olivia because she managed to make the crown prince repeat his question. Meanwhile, Agatha smiled with satisfaction triumphantly. That expression was what she had expected. That's what she wanted. Her efforts to bring Olivia beside hers ended in nothing. The woman could see clearly who the useless man she had been humiliating for so long.
