Chapter 558 Another surprise visitor
Over the next week, it was quite peaceful.
Now that we had settled our engagements, there was nothing left for us to do other than to flirt with each other and learn more about each other.
I learned quite a few things about the girls that I didn't know before, so I was quite happy since I felt much closer to them now that I learned these things.
This morning, we had been enjoying a nice breakfast together when all of a sudden, there was someone that came in to interrupt it.
"Count, Countess, there's a guest here to see you!"
This person rushed in as they said this in a very loud voice.
It seemed that they were very agitated, so the identity of this guest was most likely not very normal.
Not to mention, we were able to see who it was that suddenly came in.
It was Nicole, the one who worked for me previously that Rose had taken under her wings.
She was one of Rose's trusted subordinates, so that meant that she was someone that wasn't shaken that easily. This chapter is updated by nov(e)(l)biin.com
If someone like her was even shaken, then this must be a very important guest.
But the strange thing that I noticed was that after coming in, she looked at the princess with a very strange look.
I couldn't help asking, "What's wrong?"
Nicole didn't answer this directly and just said, "I think that the princess will be able to recognize this guest right away."
When the princess heard this, she couldn't help revealing a confused look before asking, "What do you mean by that?"
Nicole didn't answer the question and just said, "The guest is currently waiting for you at the town hall. They are there since they said that this is an official visit."
Rose gave a nod before looking at me.
I nodded back at her and stood up to follow her and Nicole over.
"Old fourth, I knew that it was you."
When the fourth prince heard this, he couldn't help jolting before turning to look at the princess with an awkward smile on his face, "Big sister, what are you doing here?"
The princess narrowed her eyes to look at him before saying, "You know exactly what I'm doing here. The question is, what are you doing here?"
The fourth prince revealed an awkward look as he said, "Well, I had no choice but to come."
The princess narrowed her eyes even more before saying, "I knew that you and royal father would regret this decision. I've already told you that I'll be marrying him, you can't convince me otherwise."
The fourth prince shook his head and hands as he said, "No, no, that isn't what this is about at all."
The princess looked at him with a doubtful look as she said, "Really?"
It was just a single word, but it was filled with all the doubt that the princess could muster.
The awkward smile on the fourth prince's face became even more awkward as he said, "Really, it isn't about that at all."
The princess still looked at him with doubt, but she didn't say anything else.
Instead, she just sat down and helped herself to some of the tea that had been prepared for the fourth prince.
The fourth prince shook his head with a faint smile when he saw this.
Seeing that they were finished with their thing, I gave a cough and said, "Your highness, you must be here for a reason, right?"
The fourth prince looked at me with a displeased look and said, "You're already marrying my sister and you're still calling me your highness? Aren't we already family?"
This time, it was my turn to reveal an awkward smile, but I still said, "Then brother, is there a reason that you're here?"
The fourth prince gave a nod before suddenly revealing a serious look and saying, "There's actually a very important reason why I'm here today. There's something that I have to tell you."
I couldn't help revealing a surprised look before asking, "What is it?"
The fourth prince took a deep breath and said, "We're officially at war."
