 I look at the blank paper on my table. I need to do something to stop people from intervening in my engagement with Prince Fraser, or else it will endanger everyone.

 And the only solution I can think of is to send a letter to Lilla. I initially planned to send a letter to my parents, but I don't want to burden them again. I know they are still disappointed with my decision, and asking for their help will make them more disappointed with me. So, I skipped the plan and asked for help from Lilla.
