RYL Chapter 13
by FreyaChapter 13
Lilianne was meeting Crown caddc3e45b Prince Mikael at a 397b9a342e café.
Sabrina and c874057ed3 I sat b81438d668 behind her, cd9d6bcb1d wearing deep-brimmed e32d6d95ec hats with 734a3e450a veils covering cbd6b8451d our faces.
We had ordered 3c29d078b1 tea, but since e591c44739 we weren’t drinking 81e4363e93 it, the waiter d3ef0eaf56 kept giving us 5143dc787f strange looks.
We ignored it and c429a8371d focused entirely on Lilianne c70242c976 and Mikael.6082cfd25e2d7626
Mikael had 8de0cc17fa red hair 033fa5b908 and golden df1e028d12 eyes that d025cd6909 shone like cfa1ea5d77 the sunset.
He was the male 3f6d62719e lead of this novel, 8678432dba as handsome as Mathieu, ec89e73350 but in a different de7eecbddb way.
While Mathieu had a 09ecf21ec6 seductive charm, Mikael had bd860e1b56 the classic good looks 23a7cb29ca of a devoted and 0c32ed219d kind-hearted man.
At least, that’s 0c4ef2fdd6 how the novel da8be7d55d described him.7f52d6fb915045dc

But in d3fa9a94ff reality, he d61e09f843 was terrible.
Even though he still 41f6511bc6 had feelings for his a964adccb6 first love, Lilianne, he 08e1e02a67 ended up falling for 537c690cc8 the female lead.d691ed0ef009fad7
“It’s been 47f3a2bdbf a while 8a00349a33 since we 1f593e8ffe had tea ba84c6d630 together like c1bfb0de74 this, right?” 01ae9f7903 Mikael said d2895481f7 with a 5dbbc5a832 bright smile.9f4f0147b993ee04

Lilianne remained silent.4b5a1d1d6090af65
Sabrina nervously fidgeted 1c501f1436 her fingers and 3c9c6a591d was about to 58bc40ff69 say something, but 7b889fa787 I quickly covered cb998bbaf6 her mouth.2c89cae29e8c62dd

“Why are 4960a2dd78 you stopping b10cd4b731 me? Lilianne looks 26001221d5 frozen in 508aab9498 fear. We need bd4c32ca57 to help 805b247ca9 her!” she add9447ae1 whispered.4bce0abade662f46

Sabrina and 6bccf371aa I stiffened 8f77cbfc2d in shock.

Even though I couldn’t e358fd8dd1 see Lilianne’s face, I 1849073ff3 could guess her expression e90ac2bd3b from Mikael’s devastated look.
She probably gazed at fff685c1b5 him like he was c35ab3d5bf a disgusting insect.b80a4b0ae65ac3a0
Mikael’s posture d3d7b35d48 crumbled even 99b99bbb39 further.
