The Second Life Liliana
Chapter 68. Candidate crown princess

The red-haired girl felt challenged by the noble ladies talking about her and insulting her directly in plain sight.

He remembered the past, where he was as Adaire was always underestimated and ridiculed like this. This time he will not remain silent.

"I also don't understand why I was chosen as the candidate for the crown princess, can the ladies here explain?" asked Liliana with a clear face.

"Isn't that obvious because you're the daughter of the Geraldine family?" said a noble lady while staring intently at Liliana. She was Arina Zaise Francesco, daughter of Earl Francesco.

"As the ladies know, I'm just a foster child. But why can I be chosen to be the candidate of the crown princess? Even I was chosen by the Queen herself, I don't understand."

The three noble ladies were astonished to hear it. "Are you really chosen by Her Majesty?" ask the woman with long braided hair. She was one of the candidate candidates for the crown princess as well, Miss Keira Amidya Darrian the daughter of count Darrian.

I just have to be registered by my father to be a candidate for the crown princess. Why did he get an invitation directly from the Queen?. Said a long haired woman in her heart feeling envious.

"You must be lying, right? If you were chosen by Her Majesty, where is the evidence?" ask a cynical short-haired woman. She is the Shopia Lasheira Caravan, the daughter of

Marquess Caravan.

"Evidence? I happened to bring her invitation letter, maybe the ladies can tell me this letter is fake or not!"

Wanna drop me? You guys won't be able to. You need to be reborn to fight me. Two people are in this body, both are women who hold anger and resentment.

Liliana showed the invitation letter from the Queen to the three noble ladies. Julia also saw him, she looked surprised because she did not get the invitation letter from the Queen as obtained by Liliana.

Damnit damnit! Why don't I get a letter from the Queen directly? Has he really been chosen? No, dad said I'm the one who's gonna remain the crown princess. Julia impinges.

"This...really the stamp of the Queen's palace?" shopia asked Keira.

"True, this is the stamp of the Queen's palace. Meaning he didn't lie, the Queen did choose him directly!" exclaims Arina in amazement.

"Yes you're right, there must be a reason Her Majesty chose this lady.."

The three noble ladies were talking about Liliana while whispering. Liliana just looked at them with a smile. While Julia looked at Liliana with envy, her lips flashed a smile as if she was supporting Liliana.

"You can't talk about Miss Liliana like that, we better go inside. Because Her Majesty, it must have been waiting for us." Julia said with a friendly smile to the noble ladies.

"Miss Julia is always humble, but Miss Julia also gets a letter from the Queen, but Miss Julia does not show off" Arina said while staring at Liliana cynically.

"True, it's not like an adopted child showing off with a letter from Her Majesty" Keira said.

"I'm sorry, but I'm not showing off. Did you ask me about the invitation letter? So I'm just showing you, why show off?"Liliana did not want to lose and did not want to be oppressed by the noble lady. He dared to correct the words of the noble lady who insinuated him.

Maybe I'll just be quietly treated like this, run away and cry alone. But, in this life, I won't do it.

"We didn't say you were showing off! Don't be too sensitive" Keira said in confusion when her words got a reply from Liliana.

"I apologize to you immediately, Miss Keira and Miss Arina!" liliana said firmly.

"What do you mean?" arina asked, her eyes rolling here.

"Why should we apologize?"keira asked cluelessly and pretended not to know.

"You both insulted me. Shouldn't you be apologizing?" Liliana glanced at the two women who had already accused her of showing off.

"We-we're not insulting" Arina said with a body trembling in fear.

"I-that's right! So don't overdo it!" keira said she would not confess.

Miss Sophia and Julia were silent when they saw her.

The face that Liliana had put on immediately turned sharp and firm. Moreover, his eyes were extremely sharp on Keira and Arina.

"Miss Shopia, Miss Julia.are you a witness? You heard these two ladies insulting and accusing me of showing off, right?" liliana asked with a sharp eye on Julia and Shopia.

"True, Miss Arina and Miss Keira. immediately you apologize to Miss Liliana before the matter becomes long," Julia said.

When Julia spoke, the two noblewomen immediately apologized to Liliana. This proves that Julia is indeed the queen who has the highest authority in the world of high-class noble socialites.

Trouble passes when Keira and Arina apologize to Liliana. In front of Liliana, Julia was also looking for face. He wanted to be close and friendly with Liliana. But Liliana knew Julia's intention to be close to him was to destroy him, she saw it when Julia deliberately humiliated him in front of the palace gate.

The candidates for the crown princess arrived at the Queen's palace and were welcomed by the servants and bodyguards there. They were told to wait at a table near the flower garden.

"Oh yes Miss Liliana, may I ask you a question?" Julia turned to Liliana who was sipping tea water in her cup carefully.

Julia looked at Liliana with a glance at her every move. Her pretty eyes were sharp, her charming smile was also creepy at first glance. A smile that contains cunning.

From his movements he did not look like a commoner. But like a pure nobleman.

"Yes Miss Julia? What do you want to ask?" ask Liliana with a smile. He tried to maintain his calm.

Keira and Arina stared at Liliana cynically, they still could not accept having to apologize to Liliana who was only Duke Geraldine's foster child.

"I'm sorry, maybe this question is impolite.but I just want to know the truth. This question also represents everyone's curiosity" Julia said with a friendly smile.

"Yes, please miss Julia.." Liliana invited Julia to ask.

What'd she like to discuss?

"Rumors circulated that Miss Liliana was appointed to be the noble foster child of Duke Geraldine, because the missus was the pen pal of the late Miss Adaire.is that true?" julia asked in a soft and cautious voice.

Liliana was silent for a moment upon hearing the question, then she confirmed it.

Keira, Arina and Shopia also listen to what Liliana and Julia are talking about. "So actually miss" Julia would ask again, but a voice stopped her.

"The Queen has arrived!" A man in a voice announces the arrival of Queen Freya.

The five noble ladies including Liliana, immediately rose from their seats, bowing half-bodies while paying their respects and greeting to the Queen of Istvan kingdom.

"Greetings to the Queen!" say the five noble ladies simultaneously.

Queen Freya looked one by one at the face of the candidate for the crown princess with a sharp look. His gaze paused for a long time as he looked at the figure of the red-haired woman who had a pretty face. She is Liliana.

Is she the girl my beloved crown prince likes?

"Welcome to the event of the introduction of the candidate of the crown princess, do not be tense. Please, everybody sit down!" Queen Freya tried to show her friendly attitude in front of the five noble ladies, one of whom will be the next queen candidate in the country.

The five noble ladies sat down neatly, after which the Queen sat down first rather than them. It is a form of temperament towards people of higher status and older age. This was true for the nobility, not for the common people.

Queen Freya did not come alone, she came with her secretary as well as the person she trusted the most, Erasmus. He is the man in charge of the crown princess election for the next few weeks.

That day they only met each other, one by one they introduced themselves in front of the Queen. When Keira, Arina and Shopia introduce themselves in front of Freya. His reaction was just flat and ordinary, Freya reacted when the two daughters of the Duke introduced herself.

Freya assessed the two women deeply and she saw Liliana and Julia was the most prominent among the other princesses.

Both of them were equally beautiful, had courage, firmness in their body cues. Unfortunately, only one will be chosen.

"Alright, enough for the introduction. This time Mr. Erasmus will distribute the exam schedule for the candidates for the crown princess. Erasmus, share!" tell Queen Freya to her loyal servant.

"Your highness" answered Erasmus.

After the introductory session, Erasmus distributed a leaflet containing the exam schedule for the crown princess. There contains various kinds of tests that they will go through to become candidates for the crown princess. From here they will be selected, of which only the best will be selected.

Julia smiled at the leaflet, unlike the others who only sighed as soon as they saw her schedule. Liliana also noticed the look on Julia's face.

Hmphh.It is clear this was arranged by the Queen. If the Queen had already decided the crown princess was Miss Julia, why would she hold something like this?

When the five noble ladies are about to leave the Queen's palace. Suddenly someone shot an arrow at the Queen. With a quick movement Liliana brushed off the arrow.

SRATT'S....

NAH!

"There's intruders! Catch her!" The palace guards saw a black shadow on the roof of the Queen's palace. The black shadow ran fast

"Protect Her Majesty!" erasmus shouted to the guards there.

The queen looked shocked, she also looked at Liliana in awe because the girl had just protected her and she was able to defend herself. The four noble ladies were stunned to see the mercurial Liliana.
