This did cause Laurel's face to contort. In her memory, although Laurel had heard countless apologies from others, never did she have to take the initiative to do so.
For her, apologizing to someone was a mortifying act.
Seeing how Laurel was being reluctant made Seraphine press harder against her stomach, and due to the pain, Laurel wasn't able to think straight.
"Fine, fine, I am sorry."
Of course, that apology wasn't sincere. Nonetheless, there was nothing that could be done against it. People like Laurel are born without a conscience after all.
One might say it was because Laurel was spoiled and not taught from a young age, but Seraphine did not think that was the problem.
When she was child, it was understandable to some extent, but now that Laurel had grown up, surely she was able to discern the matters.
The other party was Seraphine, and that's wh
Only when Seraphine was handed the test paper and she went through the contents did she realize she was being overly confident in herself.The corner of her lips twitched when she noticed how she was unable to understand around half of the question and relied on her intuition go answer most of the exam paper.It seems she did not have the female lead halo of being foolish yet managing to learn everything in a short period of time due to persistence.The more Seraphine went through her paper, the more her confidence shattered, and by the time she had to submit her paper, Seraphine sunk into a despondent mood.Thinking about how she was bragging in the morning to everyone, Seraphine wanted to cry out. This was indeed humiliating.No matter how hard she tried, she was unable to maintain a smiling expression and hold in her desire to bang her hand on the desk.To make the things worse,
"You are here."Alexandar smiled at the mage who was seated at the couch of his office. He made his way over to him and sat on the couch beside Elliot.After that, he personally took the initiative to pour the other man a cup of tea before filling his own cup.Elliot had his usual indifference plastered on his face as he nodded his head."How was this time at the academy?" Alexandar questioned."There is report written regarding the matter," Elliot answered, indicating towards the stack of documents on the table."You are indeed efficient and impatient," Alexandar expressed, "How about Seraphine? What do you think? She is really cute, right?"That cold expression seemed to have cracked when hearing Alexandar's words, and he responded, "I almost didn't recognize her.""Me neither," Alexandar answered, "She changed so much. Even though things won't be
“I have heard of something interesting recently. Mind clarifying it?”Hearing that voice out of nowhere almost started Seraphine into dropping the croissant off her hand. As she raised her head, she stared at Kayden in front of her and frowned.“Since when did you have the habit of sneaking up on others?” Seraphine questioned.Kayden extended his hand towards her and pressed on to the creases that formed between both of her eyebrows. This lead Seraphine to smoothen her forehead.“I wasn’t planning do so until I learned someone was encouraged by me to confess,” Kayden vocalized.Honestly, Kayden didn’t think much of it, other than Seraphine wanting to make a fool out of Eli. However, he did want to observe various faces she would make once caught red-handed.All excuses and shameless lines felt intr
Seraphine squinted her nose and said, “See, look at your expression. It totally has ‘you are saying bullshit, but I am going along with it in order to not create any problems' all over it.”“No, you are wrong.” He then pinched her nose prior to continuing, “What I am trying to convey is even if it is nonsense, it doesn’t matter because you are cute.”A bright grin appeared on her face as Seraphine cheerfully answered, “I like the sound of that. Call me cute more often.”°°°The results were announced today.The first thing Seraphine did after getting her results was search for Kayden, and after she spotted him with couple of other students, she ran over to him.Once Kayden sensed her presence, he made his way over to her after excusing himself. Without wasting a second further, Seraphine
Fortunately, Winter didn’t probe further on the matter and in fact wore a bright smile on her face. Seraphine was glad that Winter didn’t pursue this.“Ah, Seraphine, on the occasion on you doing so well, I brought you some brownies. Do you want to have them?” Winter questioned.There was nothing for her to do now, so Seraphine nodded her head.“That sounds great. Should we sit outside and eat?” Seraphine suggested.Even if Winter made her feel uncomfortable at times, Seraphine was warming up to her and considered her to be a female friend of her.Of course, she did keep in mind about Winter’s possible betrayal, and that’s why, there was a certain barrier in between present, so that Seraphine’s feelings aren’t hurt when Winter exposes herself.“I would like that,” Winter answered.
Other than the initial surprise, Kayden didn't show much change in expression and continue forward. The lack of enthusiasm bothered Seraphine.Getting closer to him, Seraphine clutched on to his hand and commented, "That's it?"Tilting his head to face her, he replied, "This doesn't concern me.""Tch!" Seraphine scoffed. "You say I feel adult-like at times. What about you? Who in your age shows as such a dull response?"After this, Seraphine did not pursue the matter further, and the two of them held small conversations here and there prior to them reaching their destination.This part of the town was bustling, and there was a faint smell of alcohol in the air. The surroundings were noisy due to sounds from laughter and yelling.Crinkling in nose, Kayden questioned, "Is this really where you wanted to come in?"Not too far from here
Once Seraphine was dragged out, she raised her head to stare at Kayden and questioned, "What was that urgency?"Kayden sighed and expressed, "That was the Crown Prince.""Ah, so?" she vocalised as she started to walk forward.Only then did the words sink into her head, and she halted in her steps. Her eyes widened as she looked back at Kayden."What the hell? Repeat it again!" Seraphine exclaimed."That was Crown Prince, Alexandar Meyton, in disguise, Seraphine," Kayden vocalised.Her heart almost stopped when she heard that, and the shock received by her was immense.No wonder he seemed awfully familiar to her with that manner of dealing.Seraphine hit her head against the nearby wall softly as she spoke out, "I am really a fool, aren't I? Ah! He must have had a good laugh! How could I not recognize him!?"
Seraphine went through the collection of dresses in the novel in front of her. They were supposed to be latest trends around the Capital.There were few not released yet, and according to the dressmaker, it would be proper, with her being the daughter of the Duke, to start a trend.Seraphine truly did not want to take on the burden of being a trendsetter.The original Seraphine had followed that path, and what resulted from it was endless troubles. She was constantly being compared and ridiculed by others.It wasn't that she was shying away from it; she did have confidence in her outlook. However, when one started a fashion trend, there were many things to follow after it.As for the rest of the dresses, none of them suit Seraphine's taste. Wearing dresses on normal days was tiring enough for Seraphine, and the ones suitable for grand occasions were much heavier.
