45 Alexandro and Vanesa's Wedding

45 Alexandro and Vanesa's Wedding

Dearest Rosline

I write with a heavy heart.

You must believe me. I had no idea Her Majesty the Queen would have Alester be her nephew in law. I still am a fervent supporter of our alliance. How about having your eldest daughter marry my Alexandro. As you know he is leading Occident politically, It will minimize the rivalry between Occident and Orient.

Please have a think!

Agatha Quichi

Feeling sorry for the 'Alester situation', Lady Quichi wrote to Lady Rosline asking Vanessa to be engaged to Alexandro. Lady Rosline told Vanessa that she was to be with Alexandro, Vanessa liked that. One sunny day, Alexandro wrote to Vanessa inviting for a tea.She came.

They had tea and talked about ,,,,, What did they talk about? Honestly, Vanessa couldn't remember.

"My lady, I really enjoyed our talks together." said Alexandro.

Was it over? So soon?

A servant opened the door to her carriage and wiith Alexandro 's help she got in. He kissed her goodbye. She blushed ,how could she not? When she left, Alexandro got to his study and was surprised to find himself blushing as well. She was nothing but a left over, but she still made his heart pound.

He watched her go.

"I think her mother prefers you over your brother," said Lady Quichi.

Wouldn't anyone? It was not that Alester was bad, but Alexandro was the third most powerful young man in the entire kingdom, aside from the Princes. He nodded.

"When will we marry?" asked Alexandro.

"As soon as I talk to Lady Rosline," said Lady Quichi. She grabbed a pen and wrote to Lady Rosline.

The twins were happy for Vanessa, except for Lady Quichi who promised Lady Rosline to be gentle with Vanessa, , not that she took her words for it. It was as if Vanessa was marrying into the loyal family. They suggested throwing her a party to celebrate and Bryan liked that.

it was just family members Including Janet and El.

"Can you wait till he actually proposes?" asked Vanessa.

"We will throw a big one after that," said Pancella.

"What if it gets canceled like the one with Mr;Alester?" asked Vanessa.

"It won't, " said Janet. "The servants say your mother and the monstress are deciding on what to serve at the wedding."

"Will she and Mr.Alexandro like me?"

"Oh, dearest sister," said Pancella. "How could anyone not like you, You are the sweetest person I've ever known."

The next morning, Vanessa went over to the Quichis manner,

"Do I rank higher than Lady Cassandra?"

Alexandro had never given it a thought. "Maybe?"

She laughed.

Alexandro smiled. Then it hit him, he should do something romantic with her.

"Have you ever been to the palace, my lady?"

Vanessa nodded."Only the crown princess' quarter."

"Then let me give you a tour," said Alexandro.
