Chapter 175: Short Meeting
"Your Highness, you cannot..."
Mr. Ed sighed seeing Talia who was waiting for the arrival of King Louis and Queen Consort Cordelia at the waiting room, disappearing in the hallways.
The guests for the State Dinner were arriving one by one. They are already brought to the Rotham Hall where the dinner was arranged with many round tables. Since they are the chief guest, the Rosandale Royal would be expected to arrive at the right time. With just ten minutes for the start of the Dinner, the King will arrive any minute now.
Everyone knows, the King is never late!
And at this crucial time, the Princess cannot disappear. She should be led to her seat by the Vice President to the main table that seats ten people where the King, Queen Consort, President, First Lady, Vice President, Second Lady and some other people with ranks to join in Dinner.
Mr. Ed tried to follow Talia but he felt like she just disappeared in a whisp of smoke right in front of his eyes.
Who told him to relax thinking that taking care of this Princess is a stress-free job? She just disappeared at the crutial moment!
Talia on the other hand with her furrowed brows looked very cross in the small powder room in the hallway.
"Are you wearing a clip-on?" she was fuming as her fingers pulled at the tie Arthur was wearing.
"You are wearing a clip-on... Darn you Fred! Who wears a clip-on bow tie for a black tie formal event? Who wears a clip-on, period? Are you a savage? Have you no class? Didn’t the Boswell family raise you well? What are you going to wear next? That awful trousers that shows your ankles? " Talia went on a rant.
" Whoa, Iris! "Arthur placed his hand on Talia’s shoulders to stop her from chewing his ears off. "Those ’awful trousers’ you mention are called Capri pants and they are the trending fashion now-"
