Chapter 445: Chapter-445
Elara’s mind scanned her current files for a single second before she spoke. "The document detailing your wedding attire. You have not specified what you intend to wear. A suit, or a dress, or something else? I require the exact specifications for the imperial tailor."Julian stared at her, the sheer absurdity of the question catching him entirely off guard. A slow, deeply sarcastic smirk began to creep back onto his face. "I am going to wear a grand ballroom gown, Regent."
Elara nodded once, her expression deadpan and completely literal. "A perfect choice. The volume of the skirt will provide a strong visual presence on the dais."
She paused.
A delayed data point clicked in her mind. She looked at his mocking smirk, her eyes narrowing by a hair. "Wait. Are you taunting me?"
Julian let out a sharp, breathless laugh, grabbing his own head in absolute exasperation. "I don’t know what is deeply wrong with you today, Elara, but I will give you the detailed wardrobe plan soon."
He turned and finally walked toward the massive exit. He gripped the heavy brass handle, but right before he pushed the door open, he paused, looking over his shoulder with a sharp, warning glare.
"And I am definitely not wearing a ball gown, so please get that out of your mind."
Elara kept her eyes closed, forcing her breathing into a slow, measured cadence to regain control over her erratic pulse. But the quiet she sought was instantly shattered when a familiar, annoying presence materialized right beside her head.
