Back at the academy, Lilian was walking toward the headmistress's office.
"Hey, Lilian!"
She turned around and saw Princess Julia waving at her. Princess Felicity was standing beside her.
"Oh, hi, Julia," Lilian said as she approached them with a smile.
"What are you doing at the academy?"
"Well, my mom called us and asked us to give her a hand with her work since she's too busy," Princess Julia replied.
Lilian then looked at Felicity, who was standing there without saying a word. Lilian didn't mind—it wasn't like she disliked her or anything. That was just how Felicity was.
"Hello… Princess Felicity," Lilian said in a respectful tone.
"Hello, Lilian…" Felicity replied before falling silent again.
Lilian sighed softly.
Felicity and Julia had different mothers. Although Felicity was two years older than Lilian, they were still in the same class because Felicity had served two years in the military. As the leading contender for the throne, she had always been busy.
