PROFESSOR.
URM...
WOULD IT REALLY BE ALL RIGHT NOT TO WEAR A PROPER GOWN?
This Is Exactly Why I Tried To Dress Her As Plainly As Possible...
OF COURSE IT'S ALL RIGHT.
YOU ALREADY STAND OUT TOO MUCH AS IT IS. ADDING A GOWN TO THAT IS TOO DANGEROUS.
PLEASE!
P-PROFESSOR...!
CHUCKLE
RIGHT, THERE WAS SOMEONE WITH US!
OLLIE'S...
I-I'M SO EMBARRASSED!
...INNER SELF.
LET'S CHANGE THE SUBJECT, QUICK.
YOU SAID THE TWO PRINCES WE'RE MEETING TODAY LOOK A LOT ALIKE, RIGHT?
PLAYING INNOCENT
NOT EXACTLY A SMOOTH CHANGE OF SUBJECT.
THAT'S RIGHT.
BUT THEY GIVE TOTALLY DIFFERENT IMPRESSIONS, SO IT WON'T BE HARD TO TELL THEM APART.
THE ONE WITH BLUE EYES IS THE CROWN PRINCE, USHER.
AND PRINCE NOAH HAS GREEN EYES TINGED WITH RED.
THE BLUE-EYED ONE IS CROWN PRINCE USHER.
THE GREEN-EYED ONE IS PRINCE NOAH...
WE HAVE ARRIVED AT THE BANQUET HALL.
IT'S SO GRAND...
DON'T BE NERVOUS.
JUST ACT LIKE YOU DO IN POLDER.
YOU ARE THE GUEST OF THE ROYAL HOUSE TODAY. YOU HAVE NO REASON TO BE INTIMIDATED BY ANYONE.
OKAY, PROFESSOR!
THAT'S RIGHT. DON'T BE NERVOUS.
I'VE BEEN TO A FEW BANQUETS AT HEROLINGTON, TOO.
THIS MAY BE A ROYAL BANQUET...
...BUT IT CAN'T BE THAT DIFFERENT.
FOLLOW A STEP BEHIND ME.
THİNK AGAİN!
Y-YES, MA'AM...!
THE BANQUETS BACK AT UNIVERSITY DON'T EVEN COMPARE.
THANK GOODNESS THE PROFESSOR CAME WITH ME.
I WOULD HATE TO IMAGINE WHAT WOULD'VE HAPPENED IF I CAME ON MY OWN.
WHAT...?
OH...
IT REALLY...
...IS A RELIEF THAT I DIDN'T COME ON MY OWN.
PRINCESS MARGUERITE.
OLIVIA.
COME TO MY SIDE. WE HAVE TO PAY OUR RESPECTS.
OH!
R-RIGHT!
WHAT DO I DO?
I CAN'T STOP TREMBLING.
WHAT IF I MAKE A MISTAKE...?
?!
MAYBE I SHOULDN'T HAVE COME...
ARE YOU ALL RIGHT?
GREEN EYES...
THE ONE WITH GREEN EYES IS...
PRINCE NOAH.
...!
AH...
OH!
GET A GRIP!
TH-THANK YOU FOR CATCHING ME, YOUR HIGHNESS.
IT WAS MY PLEASURE. I'M GLAD YOU ARE NOT HURT...
STOP STARING AT ME AND GET ON WITH THE INTRODUCTIONS.
YOU ACTUALLY CAUGHT A WOMAN WHO ALMOST FELL? INSTEAD OF JUST STANDING THERE DOING NOTHING...?
PROFESSOR...
WHISPER PROFESSOR!
IT'S GOOD TO SEE YOU AGAIN AFTER ALL THIS TIME.
EYES DEMANDING AN EXPLANATION
THANK YOU FOR INVITING ME TO THE BANQUET.
I-DON'T-KNOW WHAT'S GOTTEN INTO HIM, EITHER...
WELCOME.
THANK YOU BOTH FOR COMING ALL THIS WAY.
IT'S A PLEASURE TO MEET YOU, MS. LIBERTY.
NO, IT'S AN HONOR FOR ME TO MEET YOU, YOUR HIGHNESS.
AHEM
NOW, SINCE WE SEEM TO BE DONE WITH INTRODUCTIONS...
A SCOOP...
LET ME TAKE A SHOT, QUICK...
A SCOOP...
LET'S GO MEET THE REPORTERS WAITING FOR US, SHALL WE?
BEFORE WE START THE INTERVIEW...
...WE'LL FIRST TAKE A GROUP PICTURE FOR THE FRONT PAGE.
MS. LIBERTY?
YES?
YOU CAN STAND...
...HERE, NEXT TO HIS HIGHNESS PRINCE NOAH.
OH, OKAY.
COME A LITTLE CLOSER.
PARDON?
YOU SHOULD COME A LITTLE CLOSER TO KEEP THE PICTURE BALANCED.
OH, ALL RIGHT...!
THERE'S A PLEASANT SCENT...
IS THAT HIS COLOGNE?
It Suits Him Very Well.
MY GOD, HOW COULD I THINK SOMEONE SO RUDE ABOUT ROYALTY?
WHAT DO I DO?
OKAY, HERE WE GO.
I CAN'T STOP TREMBLING.
Olivia, who arrives at the royal banquet with her professor, feels uneasy because of her plain outfit. The professor says it is safer for her not to wear a dress since she attracts attention. In the banquet hall, she gets excited upon seeing Princess Marguerite and starts trembling. Just as she is about to fall, green-eyed Prince Noah catches her. The chapter unfolds in a tense yet intriguing atmosphere, with their meeting and a group photo taken for the reporters.
