The girl disappeared instantly from Eleanora's view but it made her tremble in fear.
'I was right… even if he loves me, even if i try hard to change the past… i can't stop her from appearing and take away my everything…'
At that moment, the music stopped and a thundering applause was heard.
But Eleanora couldn't take a step forward from the spot and kept looking down.
Cathain, who was staring at her, also did not intend to move.
Eleanora's mouth was becoming dry. People's whispering was getting farther away.
Cathain took his eyes off of Eleanora after a long time and let go of her hand as he smiled casually like nothing had happened.
"Thank you for dancing with me first at my coming-of-age ceremony."
"It was an honor for me…"
Eleanora replied, barely calming down her trembling body but Cathain suddenly reached out to grab her wrist without any politeness.
Almost dragged by him, Eleanora was headed to the platform where the emperor was seated.
