[Cinderella] Prince go away

The prince who has been paying attention to the gate of the palace can be said to have discovered Cinderella's arrival the first time she appeared.

However, different from his dream, Cinderella did not appear in a gorgeous dress like in his dream, and appeared under the envious eyes of everyone when the palace gate was about to close.

Although she was still wearing the glass slipper, her costume was not as gorgeous as in her dream. She didn't even appear alone, but followed her family.

This is completely different from the dream.

His Royal Highness, who felt that everything was under control, felt as if he had been deceived.

This feeling is like reading a novel without knowing the ending, only to find that the novel is actually a pirated version.Originally planning to dance with Cinderella, who has become the focus of everyone's attention, the prince suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.

It's just that although Cinderella is not as stunning as in the dream, she is still the lover of her dreams.

Feeling disappointed, the prince took another look at Cinderella, who was still very beautiful even if she didn't make a stunning appearance, and decided to dance an opening dance with the princess as planned first.

If Cinderella really came out tonight as in his dream, he might be able to open the opening dance with her.

——The prince who felt that he was deceived by the dream thought very disappointedly.

But having said that, he himself knew that this was actually impossible, because even if Cinderella was the daughter of the Marquis family, no matter how amazing she was, she was not the woman with the highest status present.

So it might be a good thing for him that she didn't make a grand appearance.

I don't know whether it was disappointment or relief. The prince invited the princess who had been sitting high on the stage to leave the stage. The two danced to the music under the envious eyes of most people present, and at this moment...

Cinderella, who was looking around the palace, also got separated from her mother and sister, and met Augus.

So the prince who originally planned to go directly to Cinderella after the show could only watch Augus hold Cinderella's hand and enter the dance floor that he had just left.

The prince said that he was really heartbroken tonight.

Although he didn't know what Cinderella and Oggs were talking about, seeing the two of them finally finished dancing, he couldn't wait to come to them before Cinderella and Oggs separated.

In order not to make Cinderella feel that he was too eager, he even greeted Augustus, who he didn't really like very much.

——As a result, he saw the goddess in his dream avoiding him as if he had seen the plague.

"Long time no see, Your Royal Highness."

Augus, who blocked the prince's eyes for Cinderella, said so, but the respected prince he was talking about was not happy at all.

It's a pity that no matter how unhappy the prince was, he couldn't ignore the greeting from a duke—especially a duke with real power, let alone the one who spoke first, so he could only pretend that he was very happy and nodded.

"It's a coincidence to meet you here," he said in words that he didn't even believe himself-in fact, he wished to say this to Cinderella, "I also wish Cheltenham can be at today's ball." Find the girl you like on the Internet."

……

Although Cinderella didn't know the meaning of the prince's words, she always felt that the other party's words seemed to have some deep meaning.

And it made her feel very disliked.

Whether it was his tone or his eyes, Cinderella felt that he was the other party's prey.

Speaking of "last life", what did she like about this prince?

And Augus, who understood the prince's words... was also not very good-looking, but Augus was not stupid enough to turn against the prince who was not clear-headed on the spot, he just pretended that he had nothing heard, and said—

"This is also my blessing to you, Your Royal Highness."

He bowed gracefully to the other party.

"I hope you can find a suitable princess at this ball."

I don't know if it was the prince's illusion. He always felt that Augus had added an accent to the word appropriate, but now it was obviously not the time to worry about it. He accepted the other party's "blessing" while nodding, and then used Curious eyes looked at Cinderella behind Augus.

"Speaking of which, won't Mr. Duke introduce to me the beautiful woman behind you?"

In fact, he didn't know about the relationship between Augus and Cinderella, but seeing how they got along just now, he found it an eyesore. Now he asked this question just to see how familiar these two people are.

But from the few words he heard just now... He felt that August and Cinderella should not be that familiar, and they didn't even know each other's names.

Isn't this just right?

He wants to see how Augus ends up.

Augustus immediately looked at Cinderella behind him when he heard the words. Although the other party did not speak, he could see that Cinderella was unwilling to talk to the prince.

It can even be said to be fearful.

Could it be that the girl has seen that the prince is unreliable?

"This is Miss Cinderella of the Marquis of Gutenberg." After thinking for a moment, August, who had obtained Cinderella's information from the troublesome housekeeper, decided to take a risk.

Although he was reluctant to let Cinderella see this side of himself, after all, today is only the second time they meet, if they show their understanding of Cinderella before the two parties have formally introduced themselves, they will look like themselves As researched beforehand.

but……

He hoped that His Royal Highness the Prince would be able to retreat in the face of difficulties.

"Yes, Your Royal Highness," Cinderella said about the fact that Augus actually knew his identity...

Well, in fact, she didn't find it strange, and she didn't even feel too uncomfortable after knowing the place.

According to the Duke's character, it would be strange if he didn't know his own name.

And her father, the Marquis Gutenberg, once said that if a man really likes a girl, he will definitely try his best to know her name.

Cinderella showed a social smile under the strange gaze of the prince, "Mr. August and I are going to find my mother."

Although she was going to reject Augus's kindness before, Cinderella felt that it would be better to stay with the more reliable Augus in contrast to continuing to get along with the prince.

At least she felt safe and comfortable.

What a shrewd person Augus is, after seeing Cinderella's answer, he immediately understood her intentions, so he immediately said to the prince who hadn't reacted yet.

"That's right, Your Highness, I have something to do with Miss Cinderella, so I won't bother you."

Don't bother the prince what?

Of course, it doesn't bother him to choose the right princess among the girls all over the country.

Saying so, Cinderella and Augus saluted once again, and before the prince could respond, Cinderella turned around and left with Augers' arm hooked, and quickly disappeared into the crowd.

prince:"……"

Probably because they were afraid that the prince would catch up again, Cinderella and Ogus walked quickly, but they also knew that it would not be easy to find Cinderella's mother and sister in the crowd, not to mention that the most important thing now was to get rid of them. drop the prince.

So the two came to the terrace where not many people were there.

"puff……"

After finally standing still, Cinderella and Augus looked at each other, and then laughed in unison.

"I was really rude just now," Augers said with a smile, "Miss Cinderella."

Now that it has been exposed||exposed, Augus doesn't intend to continue pretending--not to mention that it seems that Cinderella knows him very well.

"Permit me to re-introduce myself formally. I am Augus Cheltenham."

He bent over and stretched out his hand to Cinderella again.

"Have I the honor of knowing your name, fair lady?"

"I'm Cinderella," Cinderella put her hand on the other's, "It's an honor to meet you, Duke of Augs."
