An insult disguised as a mere explanation toward Fiora flowed smoothly from Evelyn's lips.
Without realizing it, her words only made Emperor Julius even angrier. Xaviar himself also began to feel furious.
Because if Fiora could heal herself without any treatment...
Then that same power must have healed Ren as well.
Ren, who should have suffered severe injuries or even died that day, had been saved by Fiora's strange ability.
Emperor Julius and Xaviar exchanged a look, silently communicating through their eyes alone.
Still kneeling, Evelyn desperately hoped the Emperor would calm down and proceed with the engagement anyway.
Instead, Emperor Julius coldly said, "Deal with her after the banquet ends."
Evelyn was dismissed from the Emperor's presence just like that.
Meanwhile, the nearly crying Ren was carried out of the hall by Xaviar.
The next noble's name was announced. There was no engagement announcement like Evelyn had expected.
