BXBX NOVEL Chapter 292 - Doesn't Worthy!
Esme couldn\'t hold back the excitement as soon as she saw entering into the hallway elegantly. She nearly jumped off to pull her into a tight hug and left the rest of people astounded especially Ron who couldn\'t even move from his spot for a while.
Only two years ago, Esme located Anna\'s house in human world and later coaxed her to get back in Dalastia. She even secretly visited her foster parents who assumed her death. She didn\'t want to scare them off with her real identity. Thus watching them distance away was the only option left for Esme. After Anna shifted in human world, she gave birth to a beautiful girl named Leah who was now thirteen years old.
By the time, Ron regained his conscious, Esme had already left to catch up Anna. Aaron merely glanced at his blank, hesitant expression and patted on his shoulder lightly to comfort. After pondering for a while, Ron exhaled a deep breath and finally mustered up the courage to turn around.
After turning his back to see Anna, his eyes were stuck for a moment on her face. She looked pure, innocent as before. Only the aura of maturity was engulfing her surrounding. After leaving out from Esme\'s arms with a broad smile, Anna looked up at the way of Ron and finally met the man again whom she loved wholeheartedly after all this years.
Both of them kept staring at each others silently untill Esme poked on her arms. Startled before looking down, Anna assured Esme\'s concern with a faint smile,
" Princess, I am all right. I am not that immature Anna anymore and things have changed now."
Esme smiled lightly and changed the subject,
" Ayra would be very happy to meet you, Anna! She was asking about you in the morning."
Anna replied with an emotional smile,
" Of course, I will come. How can I miss the wedding of my little princess? Where is she anyways?"
Esme replied taking a glimpse of upstairs,
" She is resting inside her room. She is exhausted after all this rituals. How about you meet others in meantime?"
Anna nodded compherensively and followed the lead of Esme who was dragging her towards the way of Alexander. Ron kept staring at their retreating back unfathomably. The look on Anna\'s eyes changed a lot as if she was watching some distant relative. Her pure eyes didn\'t sparkle like before whenever she saw Ron. Somewhere in Ron\'s heart, her change affected his thoughts deeply. He wanted to know about their child and her but an unknown force was stopping him from taking the initiative.
What will he tell to his child when they meet that he didn\'t want to accept his mother or he was trying to abort that child?
Their were pile of questions surging from its heart. A helpless sigh escaped through his lips and replaced with a bitter smile on his lips.
Still he should go for her at least to know how was she in all this years?
Meanwhile, Cedric scanned Frenchies\'s expression amusingly and grinned further to tease him. Frenchies growled at his comment annoyingly and brushed past of him after mumbling,
" What nonsense! She was insulting me! Her damn attitude! "
Cedric chuckled at his response and replied with a teasing smile,
" Hmm! First stop of falling in love! Go ahead!"
Fortunately, Frenchies didn\'t hear him out and stormed inside the crowd with a dark face. He sweared that someday he would take revenge on this shifter woman for sure! Such a daring oldie eagle!
The night grew deeper after the couple dance and everyone soon after started to leave one by one. Some young couples insisted on staying and were having fun on their own. Some even danced with their drunken state insanely caused series of laughter in the hallway.
Alexander walked out of the crowd with a cold drink in his hand and headed outside to cherish the friendly night. Standing on the corridor which was located in front of their garden, he sipped the drink slowly while looking up at the moon blankly. Images of Arthur and Elizabeth dancing were still evident in his heart that couldn\'t stop upsetting his heart.
As he sighed deeply to stable his unsettled emotions, a sweet voice suddenly came from his side,
" Brother Alex, you are here! "
Alexander jerked snapping his head aside and saw Elizabeth standing with a different attire. This purple gown was a little revealing and showcased the deep curve between her breastline. Alexander coughed lightly and looked away from her before questioning coldly,
" What are you doing here?"
His tone erased the shy smile from Elizabeth\'s face who came up to him with a heart of hope. Covering the sadness with a broad smile, Elizabeth answered with a cheering voice,
" Look at me! Ain\'t I look pretty now?"
Alexander gritted his teeth harder and shot her a side glance unhappily. Without looking at her gown, he scolded in a rude voice,
" Not much! Why did you change? Don\'t you see that there are so many boys around?"
Elizabeth forced a smile and replied back nervously,
" It\'s...just..I.. thought...Umm..Can you dance with me now?"
Alexander was annoyed and irritated on her at the same time. He didn\'t want her to wear such revealing dress nor did he want to dance with her instead of Arthur. He suddenly clutched the glass tightly and sneered at her coldly,
" Why should I dance with you so that the audience can gossip about us? Is that what you want Elizabeth? Or you want to hear that the eldest prince is drooling on your beauty?"
The happiness on Elizabeth\'s face all faded away after his harsh words. Her pair of ruby lips trembled together painfully. She couldn\'t hold back her chokes anymore and started to blabber incoherently,
" I never wanted to wear such a dress. I just thought that I didn\'t look pretty enough to dance with you and that\'s why you refused to dance with me. So I went for changing. I am such a fool! "
Elizabeth brust into tears and started to choke on her own saliva. Alexander froze after her words and wanted to coax her,reaching out for her arms,
" Elizabeth..I.. really... didn\'t mea..."
Elizabeth swiftly dodged his touch and staggered backwards hastily. Wiping her tears off stubbornly, she replied shortly before running towards the opposite direction,
" I...I am truly sorry, brother Alex..I..I should have understood that a simple creature like me doesn\'t worthy of becoming the dance partner of the crown prince.."
Alexander stared at her running back painfully. When she was out of his sight finally, a loud bang of crashing glass echoed in the empty corridor.
