Villain Princess.

But now that Duchess Isabella told Adela she had to attend Marquess Brown’s tea party, Adela knew that she had to face these girls again. To be honest, this made her feel a bit unwilling as she didn’t know what these people would say in front of her again.

But at the same time, Adela also knew that she had to step forward to greet them and face them again.

This time, she’s also the crown princess.

They wouldn’t dare to mock her so openly, right?

"You just have to remember the etiquette taught to you in class." Duchess Isabella looked at her daughter dotingly and chuckled. "As for other things, you don’t have to worry so much. Marquess Brown is not such a narrow minded person."

Adela nodded.

But what she was actually thinking was the fact that Annelie Brown was close to Aurora back when they were in the academy.

To be honest, Adela rarely met with Annelie.

As a Marquis’s daughter, Annelie status was also high and she has her own social circle. Unlike Adela who spent most of her time only staying around the capture targets, Annelie was famous in the academy and had many friends.

It could be said that Annelie truly inherited her mother’s hobby and integrated into the high society very well.

After her debut into the high society, it could be said that Annelie quickly grabbed many people’s attention. If not for the fact that she was engaged and would get married with Leon, some people might want to take their chance to introduce their children to her.

For many nobles, a woman who was capable to be the flower of the society like Annelie was truly the main target of many of them.

Because there were not that many capable women like this.

In the academy, Annelie never confronted Adela directly and always bypassed her. This made Adela uncertain what attitude Annelie would have towards her.

’But Aurora rarely stays in the academy in the past three years, so the relationship between these girls shouldn’t be that close?’

Adela was not sure.

There were many things that have changed from the game that she used to play. The fact that Aurora was barely in the academy was one of them and there were also the fact that Adela rarely encountered Annelie.

Should Adela took Leon’s route, then she would definitely face against Annelie who was angry.

Unfortunately, Leon’s route was somewhat cut off.

Adela was not sure what she did wrong, but Leon seemed to be unwilling to get close to her.

And because Leon was back to Duke Sun’s territory to help with his father and then to arrange for his marriage with Annelie, Adela couldn’t really see Leon again. She felt a bit of pity but after thinking about it, she chose to leave it be.

There was no point thinking about this.

In the first place, Adela never really wanted to follow Leon’s route and would put him on the side.

Because of this, Adela didn’t pay attention to Leon in the beginning.

The result of it was naturally Adela was not too close to Leon compared to Crown Prince Edward, Louis, and Benny. These three interacted far more with Adela compared to Leon and were more protective of her.

When something happened, they would be the first to step forward.

It was also because of this that Adela didn’t really have many other friends in the academy.

Whenever something was wrong, they would be the one at fault instead of Adela. This made them feel suffocated.

They were all noble daughters but they were placed lower than Adela.

Who can accept this?

So these people were not willing to associate with Adela.

Duchess Isabella never knew that her daughter was not making good use of her time in the academy to make friends but instead stayed near Crown Prince Edward’s side all the time. This limited her contacts, which would have effect in the future.

But for now, Duchess Isabella didn’t know.

And Adela never planned to let her mother knew what she was actually doing when she was in the academy.

After all, Duchess Isabella didn’t really ask about Adela’s study.

The expectation from Duchess Isabella to Adela was completely different from Aurora. But now that Adela was about to become crown princess, should Duchess Isabella started to pay attention to this?

For a moment, Duchess Isabella felt that she might need to tutor Adela.

But that was for later.

Duchess Isabella looked in the direction where Duke White was located and decided to have a talk with him again. For this tea party, she wanted to have a new dress and for this, she needed a lot of money.

After all, dresses were not cheap.

...

Marquis Brown’s Residence

Annelie was confused by her mother’s move and didn’t really understand why her mother wanted to have a tea party before her marriage day. Time was pressing and for their family to fork out a large sum of money for these two events... Annelie felt that it was not worth it.

Marquess Brown saw her daughter’s expression and smiled faintly. "Do you think that I shouldn’t make any tea party?"

"Mother," Annelie replied and nodded slightly. "I don’t think there’s any point in making it."

"Nonsense." Marquess Brown chuckled. "It’s naturally useful. You’re already in the high society but you’re going to get married very quickly and it meant that you won’t have many chances to attend the high society party as a girl rather than a married woman. I want you to see their differences and learn to act well."

Annelie frowned.

Is it different?

Marquess Brown sighed. She had experienced it herself, so she naturally knew that the experience for them would be different.

"And with more parties you attend, you can also expand your connection. How many friends have you made in the academy?"

Unlike Adela who was preoccupied with the capture targets, Annelie had no interest to spend time with those boys. She spent her time following her mother’s advice and become famous in the society among the women.
