Chapter 449: Preparing the Most Beautiful Lady of the Ball

That day, everyone was extremely busy, especially Primrose, who always did her special ritual of bathing in milk and pearl powder a day before any formal event.

"My Lady, I noticed your skin has gotten so much smoother," one of the human maids said with wide eyes as she gently rubbed the pearl-milk mixture onto Primrose’s arm. "What’s your secret?"

[It’s not just smoother... her skin is glowing.] The maid wondered. [Or maybe it’s because she soaked in the bath for too long last night. I heard from the maids near the bath pavilion that Lady Primrose and His Majesty didn’t come out for almost three hours.]

[They even heard strange sounds, like... screaming? Did they fight in there?]

Primrose couldn’t help but bite her inner lip to stop herself from screaming out loud. She truly had no idea there were still people outside when she was "fighting" with Edmund’s sword.

But thinking back, it made sense that many maids stayed around. They probably were worried since Primrose and Edmund stayed inside the bath for too long.

Meanwhile, the truth was... the two of them were doing something hot enough to become gossip fuel for weeks.

Now, Primrose could only pray that her father wouldn’t hear any of this gossip, or she would rather bury herself in the ground right then and there.

"It’s just... the water in Noctvaris is very high quality," Primrose said after calming herself down. "That’s why my skin became softer."

Oh, who cared about Noctvaris’ water? The real reason her skin glowed was her husband’s holy saliva and sperm. But of course, she couldn’t say that.

"I see... and Milady, I actually have a question for you." The maid bent down and whispered into Primrose’s ear. "Why does your beast maid always stand so far away from us? Does she hate us or something?"

Primrose turned her head toward Marielle, who stood in the corner of the room. She was holding several dry towels in her hands, ready to dry Primrose once she got out of the bathtub.

Honestly, Marielle didn’t make any noise at all, but that was exactly why it became a problem. From the beginning, Marielle stayed still like a statue, and she didn’t even breathe too loudly, making the maids start to think she was actually a statue instead of a living person.

"She’s just shy," Primrose said. "And scared."

[What? How can a beast be scared of us?]

The other maids were thinking the same thing. [Aren’t we the ones who should be scared of her? But... she doesn’t look like she’ll bite us.]

Marielle indeed didn’t look like someone who could bite humans. Honestly, the maids thought she was kind of cute, especially with her rabbit ears that she had been trying to hide under her knitted hat.

"But, My Lady, we don’t bite," the maid said. "We would actually be happy if she talked to us. She’s the one who took care of you in Noctvaris, so it would be easier if she could tell us about your new routine."
