"Yes, that excuse would work.. Wait! What??????"
Evan bit her lips as she did not know how to explain it. She would have kept it secret if she had not come to know about the open wedding.
An open wedding is the one where the empire is invited. No matter whether you are a commoner or a noble, a rich or a poor person, you will get an invitation and a place in the wedding.
Since the empire is so big and there is no way a church can serve so many guests, open weddings are mostly planned in the open area. Like the estate of the Thawynes.
It would be big enough to handle so much crowd but it was very risky since any mercenary or the one filled with malice can enter.
Knights could not handle keeping an eye on so many guests not to forget that keeping a guard on them would be disrespectful and many would not accept it.
But it was a felony to take the vows twice in their culture. Even if the man was the same, a woman could not vow her life twice since she had already given it to one without a divorce.
And divorces are taken as sins. So no matter what way she chose, she could not have another marriage!
"That.. we have already taken our vows and.. And we have already…" her face turned crimson as she did not know how to explain that to Eve who was still looking at her with widened eyes.
Though she was not that shy, Eve's expressions were worrying her.
"Eve, i did not want to hide it.. I am so…"
"Aaarrggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh" Evan could feel the whole building trembling and everyone covering their ears with their hands while looking at their balcony.
Evan so much wanted to dig a hole and hid in there. Why was there such a loud reaction!
She could have said that she understood or had just stayed silent!
"Evelyn, I can explain. I did not want to hide it from all of you but I did not find the right time to tell you about it!" Evan tried to explain but Eve was beyond listening.
As if the words were not falling into her ears, she started mumbling something and in the end, she ran with so much speed that Evan wondered if she would fall on the stairs or at the end of the carpet since she was wearing such high heels!
"My lady!" taking her gaze away from the path Eve had run to, Evan looked at the maid who is bringing her medicine these days and sighed.
Picking up the medicine from the tray, she gulped all of it at once.
"Cough cough! It is getting worse day by day!" Evan rubbed her chest as she felt the bitter taste of medicine covering all over her body.
She felt more nauseous than last time as it took her more than a minute to collect herself, yet the after taste of medicine did not leave her mouth.
Looking around, Evan walked to the coffee table of her room and picked up a box of chocolate, Leo had gifted her and ate a mouthful of chocolates. Only then did she feel better and sat on the chair for a while.

"The physician said it is one of the strongest. Why don't you tell others about it, my lady.'' With a look of concern in her eyes, the maid tried to persuade Even once again though she had failed in it a few times, she did not want to give up looking at the pale face of her mistress.
Evan who had hardly closed her eyes, snapped then opened again and shook her head.
"Now is not the time. Let the matter of my marriage end and everything turn back to normal.
I am fine, it is not like I am going to die or something. You do not need to worry so much." noticing the reluctance in the eyes of her mistress, the maid could only nod and leave the room.
"Sigh! I did not want all of them to worry over nothing when they finally started looking happy again and planning about the marriage!`` Wait! Marriage! Only then did she remember the running girl who must have already crossed the passage.
"What should i do now!" Evan cried in her heart without tears when she realized how much of a big mess it could be!
Where was leo! Where was the man who had planned all this? He should be here taking the responsibility of the mess she had created!
She fumbled as she walked towards her room with so many thoughts in her mind. She wanted to sound guilty but at the same time genuine when she would tell them their excuse.
She had decided she would accept their scolding and then squeeze out a few tears in front of them.
They would not bear to scold her when they would see her crying would they? Impressed with her plan, she patted her shoulders when she heard the knock on the door only to see a knight was waiting for her.
"Just how fast had she run to already tell them everything and give them time to wrap up their minds over it and even send a knight to call me!" she muttered as a look of astonishment passed her eyes.
She had always thought that they underestimated the skill of Evelyn when it comes to gossiping but this was an extraordinary level even for a gossip lover.
She took a deep breath and then nodded her head to let the knight come in while scanning his face expressions.
As expected they are angry. Not only the knight was fidgeting on his place, he was looking pale as if he was not sent to call her but to give her death sentence,
"My lady, we have received a summon from the royal palace. Your presence is required urgently!"
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
