Canceled Duke'S Engagement With Contact Fiancee
Chapter 31 Couple

Asha replied to the letter sent by the academy to her, after she woke up in the morning but for some reason Asha suddenly agreed to the invitation, the invitation letter whose show was after their welcome home party from the middle east, the welcoming party itself would start in one week.

But Asha was suddenly asked to go to the kingdom at this time because there were things that the royal council wanted to talk to him about. Arriving in front of the palace that was three times the size of his family's mansion, he had been awaited by the royal prince, he had been waiting for, it looks very enthusiastic in waiting for the arrival of Asha to the palace which can be done by the guards.

"Asha, I'll accompany you straight to the boardroom, because dad said I should attend too" Edel said with a sneer

Asha who thinks that this is an official thing then inevitably do it, because it is okay to enter together because he is his friend, without knowing the bad intentions of Edel.

The two walked into the meeting room side by side, certainly being the talk of the nobles who had been in the meeting room especially the father but he only chose not to talk much for fear of misunderstanding.

"We don't need to talk much, the reason why I asked you two to come is because I want you two to intervene in a charity event that will be held in one of the small areas in the kingdom,"

"Given your previous stories about the Middle East country, it's good that we also once held a charity event,"

"As a future heir to the Edelweiss throne, I want you to make a contribution to how close you are to the common people and Miss Edelstein as her spouse," said the king with a serious look to Asha and Edel who were in the corner of the long table

Asha at a glance did not understand the meaning of the king's words, because there was something strange he tried to remember so that later he would not do more complicated things.

"Your highness, your, I apologize for my sassness but I want to say that I and his highness the prince are only working partners not as a couple so my majesty hope that later this will not make others misunderstand about the two of us" Asha said with a bowed head in respect and a cold tone

The words uttered by Asha made the king and prince feel rejected because they indirectly match or pair Asha as the future queen of this country. Not many people would probably realize it, but in the noble world every utterance alone had a different meaning which meant they had to keep each of their sayings in front of other nobles, which meant that they had to keep their every sayings in front of other nobles, otherwise be prepared to be looked at like a victim by them.

"Cummer..."

"I didn't expect Miss Edelstein to be so thorough with this old man's words, I'm sorry if I caused a misunderstanding," the king said with a bitter smile while his father was silent, he did not defend much because it was a royal business, not a family affair

Then Asha and Edel were invited to discuss the royal problems that they should have discussed when they were in the position of the head of the family or a son of the master, but the king considered that the two were very worthy to join this meeting because both of them managed to complete the work in the other country, when it was time for the meeting to finish, all the nobles flocked to get out of the room immediately after quickly resigning themselves, he said, but when Asha and her father wanted to join the retreat, they were asked to join the tea as a friend and her child's parents.

Asha and her father would not be able to resist because his father himself was a close friend of the king since childhood, so if invited may not be accepted by Duke Edelstein and if Asha comes home first it will make a disrespectful impression on parents who make him have to participate in drinking this little tea.

"But when you were little you didn't seem to care about the situation and just focused on yourself,"

"Now she has grown into a beautiful teenage girl and mature mind," said the king with a gentle smile and a nostalgic look at the past but Asha who did not remember that she had been to the palace as a child felt that the king's memory might be better than her childhood memory because he only focused on himself as the king said

"Thank you for your noble flattery" Asha said with a smile of formality

"Don't call me noble right now I'm the head of the family and the father of a pretty hard-to-manage child,"

"You may call me uncle or father, for I have wanted a daughter for a long time," said the king in a soft shake refused to be called formal because at this time he wanted to be treated as an ordinary person like a visiting friend who was then only answered with a nod of understanding by Asha, because he was quite understanding of the situation whereas Edel had only been quiet and paying attention to the conversation since then

"I'm really worried about you guys going to the middle east because it's more dangerous than the east,"

"Will but we need cooperation in the world of trade so of course I want someone to propose themselves rather than me having to point towards that person,"

"But who would have thought you two were the ones who decided to leave," said the king with a worried look and a long sigh because given how helpless he was because many nobles who often make reasonable excuses refuse to go for their own country

Asha quite understood the political situation of the western country today, the many chaos everywhere carried out by the nobles and the many people who suffered because of those people, he said, but when they are asked to do a very noble work they reason a lot with the word impossible to let the abandoned territory is not taken care of.

"I think that I also have a lot to learn from various kingdoms to build my territory better in the future" said Asha with a gentle smile and sincere look

The words of Asha made the king shocked and silent because his devotion to the kingdom was so great and sincere.

"Asha, I want to offer my son's engagement to you? Because if you're together then I'll calm down,"
