Prince Carl Zeiss, who had so far had no appetite to be here, found something that might interest him to stay seated there. The man thought he lacked human emotions but felt mesmerised by the woman in front of him, who looked frightened and trembling.
But this prince never approached a woman by force. He gave up pretending that the maid had sent the signal and now wanted to walk away in some tug-of-war.
When the light purple dress that shook his mind disappeared before his eyes in an instant, the prince clicked his tongue because the girl didn't even heed his orders. The man thought he would leave without a hitch, but today he had no choice but to take Maire out and enjoy the evening together. His heart had hidden a passion, and he wanted to let it go.
Then the prince looked down, and then he saw his wet clothes. For a moment, Prince Carl Zeiss had forgotten about the incident.
As Marquis Arnold brought Jared in, Prince Carl Zeiss thought for a moment and opened his mouth, "I'd rather go back than changing my clothes here. Jared, tell Maire to come to Goddess Street later."
Averting his gaze, the prince spoke again, "Conner, are you going to stay any longer?"
Marquis Arnold was forced to follow his cousin, knowing where he headed the question. The prince was on his feet and ready to return before the show had even started.
"Not. What's the fun without you? I'll be back now, too," the man replied in a huff.
Look, two of them exited the VIP room before the event started, and the opera again went into a frenzy as people looked at the two nobles. Regardless, Este had returned safely to her tiny room next to the buffer room. She chose a dark spot in the opera, then sat on the floor and calmed her breathing. Este just had a panic attack.
"Wow, I almost killed myself. Even so, he looks cool," muttered Este, who seemed to praise the prince's dishevelled appearance.
The handsome young man who had rumours of his wild attraction was the current emperor's youngest son. He is the only son of the second Queen, Ivanna Emma Zeiss Arthur. Prince Edgar Carl Zeiss inherited the House of Zeiss from his maternal grandfather, Queen Ivanna Arthur.
The man was also the favourite son of the emperor, Charles Arthur, the most beloved and praised figure of today.
The prince had a handsome stature, mastered sword skills, and was also endowed with extraordinary intelligence.
The House of Zeiss he inherited was a small country between the Arthur Empire and the Vincent Empire. A famous fertile area and has rich natural resources.
Prince Edgar Carl Zeiss also inherited the Zeiss Business Group, which his maternal grandfather ran. The nobleman was known for his recognised business prowess and could grow his business into a large business group in just five years.
The prince was already famous as the wealthiest man on the continent at the age of twenty-three. The man acted as if he had no interest in politics at all. However, he is also the most watched and cared for in Arthur because no direct descendant has been named as his successor. That means the Crown Prince's seat is still empty.
Because of that, he became the target of everyone's envious attitude. It was a big dream for ordinary people to become the sleeping partner of a man like him, who inherited wealth, looks, peerage, and all other great things. Winning over a man seemed like a great gift in life.
Everyone likes to sell themselves in unsolicited promotions. People hallucinated that they could take the official position themselves, even though they knew it would only last a few months.
Este, who had heard the Zeiss Territory so much, made her ears feel constantly hot and buzzing. Seeing the man makes her understand why there is a commotion in society.
However, people like Este were not interested. The girl didn't want to be a summer tale that would end like a bottle of wine. Este breathed quite a sigh of relief that she survived today's doom and the threat of death.
"At the very least, I'm glad the owner of the house I'm working in next week is a nice enough person. Eh, it doesn't seem right what I thought before. My chest line is clear now and will attract people's attention," she mumbled.
With a desire to deny reality, Este opened the door to her washroom and hastily approached the mirror in the corner of the room after making sure no one was there.
"Oh, Lord. What is this?" she shouted softly.
Whether embarrassed or happy, the brown makeup on her face looked faded, as did her chest, which she had previously covered with the same makeup.
Surprisingly, the wine made her breasts even sparkle in the tight-fitting dress. It even seemed like her breasts were ready to explode at any moment.
Besides, because Este hastily stuffed the cloth spilt on the wine into her blouse, the front of her dress was soaking wet until it penetrated straight to her skin. Therefore, making her chest line look more appetising.
