Chapter 75

Rosina's schedule was packed from early morning. Since three years ago when Wade left for war, Rosina had taken up affairs such as taxation, legislation, and foreign relations. She was by far the most politically suave princess in Cayenian history. She won over the people's hearts with gentle gestures and made the nobles kneel before her with sharp charisma.

'Iron Flower.' That's what they called her. The nobles fell over one another to gain her favor during the war, aware that Wade might not make it back and Rosina might ascend to the throne as the first queen. She was thus swamped with piles of paperwork and in no mood for visitors—especially Claude, who somehow chose her busiest hour to visit.

After the duke had come back from war, Rosina was unable to catch a glimpse of Camellia. It felt like her privileges to dote on Lia had been stripped away by her cousin. Needless to say, the princess did not hold Claude in high regard at the current moment.
