Chapter 1060 Not To Be Trifled With
Heidi grabbed her by the hands and said, “What are you talking about? Everybody knows this birthday party is meant to confirm your marriage with Prince Jonathan! I’m looking forward to enjoying the luxurious life once you become a princess!”
Heidi had changed her mindset from before. All she wanted was for Helma to marry Bastien, as it would grant her more resources to get her revenge on Natalie. I’ll make her pay for all the humiliation she put me through!
Geert didn’t know the actual reason behind her sudden change of heart. Thinking his daughters had forgiven each other, Geert said with a smile, “Haha! I’m glad to see you two united again!”
I may not have a son, but my daughters make up for it with their success in life. If Prince Jonathan becomes king, then I’ll be the father-in-law of the king!
Helma nodded. “I’ll do my best to live up to your expectations, Father!” The Leitz family then headed out to Luna Palace, the place where the royal family of Loang resided.
With over four hundred years of history, Luna Palace was constructed entirely with large bricks. It had a beautiful curved roof to contrast the rigid shape of the building.
The design of the building looked incredibly magnificent, and the signs of aging added an air of solemnity and majesty to it.
This was Natalie’s first time standing before the entrance of Luna Palace.
Instead of feeling amazed by the palace’s grand appearance, all she felt was immense pressure from its overwhelming air of solemnity. “Here’s my invitation.” Natalie handed her invitation card with a chip over to the castle guard.
After scanning the chip on her card and seeing the level stated, the castle guard refused to let her in. “Is there a problem with my invitation?”
“No. Your invitation says you are to be escorted inside by a five-star servant.” “A five-star servant?”
Although Natalie had developed a certain level of understanding of Loang culture, she didn’t know much about the protocols and hierarchy in the royal family.
“Servants are ranked according to the number of stars, with zero being the lowest and five being the highest. The number of stars a servant has depends on their qualifications and performance. Five-star servants are the most trusted servants of the head of the royal family,” the castle guard explained.
Natalie nodded. “Ah, I see. Thank you for the information!”
I’m just here to receive an award, though. Why would Prince Jonathan have his most trusted servants receive me? Isn’t he overdoing it a little?
Moments later, a middle-aged man dressed in a white uniform appeared before Natalie. “Greetings, Ms. Nichols. Please come with me.”
“Sure,” Natalie replied as she followed the middle-aged servant through the castle gate.
“That woman is neither the daughter of a government official nor a socialite from a prominent family. Why did you even bother explaining that much to her?” asked the castle guard standing on the side.
“Do you take me for a fool or something? We’ve scanned dozens of invitation cards today, and this woman is the first guest to be escorted by a five-star servant! We may not know who she is, but she’s definitely someone important! If I get on her bad side, she may complain about it to the royal family. I’ll be screwed if that happens!”
That was when the other guard had a sudden realization. He’s right! That woman may not seem like much, but she is definitely not to be trifled with!
The middle-aged servant led Natalie into a luxurious lounge and said with a friendly smile, “Ms. Nichols, you may rest here for the time being. I will inform you when the banquet begins.”
“Wait!”
“Yes?”
“About the award ceremony later… Is there anything I should know about the procedure? I’m not too familiar with your local customs because I’m not from Loang. So I figured I’d ask you.”
