"She did what?" Audrey Lazarus was exasperated when she heard what her daughter had done at the young adults section of the party. This girl… this stupid girl would be death of her.
"She turned down the crown prince of empire of Stonia," her maid whispered into her ears. The cruel rejection by Cecilia had become the talk of the party instantly, after she had fled. Poor girl could not handle the attention but now she is the devil for having turned down a handsome lad, most probably because she did not like his defective eyes.
Audrey rubbed her temple. Finally, someone had taken interest in her and that child ended up blowing her chances. So what if he had a slight illness. As long as he was able to see even from one eye. Did she not understand that she was beyond age to find a young handsome man?
