When Vivian returned to the Winter Palace, the night was already very deep.
Before going to bed, Laura reported Victor's itinerary to her. The boy had not left the room for a long time due to the sequelae of poisoning.
"Continue to monitor him." Vivian ordered.
"Should I tell the Duke?" Laura was very worried.
"No need for now, wait until we return to the north."
"yes."
After Laura's massage, Vivian lay down on the bed to rest.
After breakfast the next day, she knocked on Victor's door and asked him how he found the whitening and skin care products.
Victor didn't look for him at all, and Vivian had guessed that this would be the case.
"May will end soon, dear brother, don't let me down, otherwise the consequences will be serious."
"Hmph, do you think your father really loves you?"
"Why are you more naive than me? My father only cares about who can create greater benefits. What does love mean?"
"So you have been wearing a mask!"
"We are twins, how can we be so different? You wrote two diaries, which recorded thirty ways to kill me."
"How do you know?"
He had burned the diary a long time ago, and there was no way Vivian could know! Victor is very nervous, always feeling like something is out of control?
"I also know that Lilia who committed suicide was not violated by her tutor, and the disembowelled dog was not committed by the groom..."
"No, you can't know, no way!"
Victor felt fear for the first time, and suddenly he saw a red light in Vivian's eyes. She must be a witch and a devil, otherwise how could she know what she had done?
Vivian slapped Victor to wake him up from his confusion. For a pervert like him, showing weakness and trying to please was of no use. He could only be suppressed by showing stronger power.
In real life, why do mental illnesses only attack children and thin women? It's not because they know they can't beat stronger people.
Victor was trembling when he saw Vivian these days, and Vivian reminded him that it was almost the end of the month. If you can't find the right cosmetics, you'll be punished!
Victor had no choice but to search around for popular cosmetics in the capital, and delivered new products every day.
Vivian tried many kinds of cosmetics and finally found the right cosmetics. The effect is not as white as lead powder, but fortunately it does less damage to the skin.
Another week passed, and Lady Camilla wrote to Vivian.
Mrs. Camila is the mother of Carol and Remino. She went to the south to do business some time ago. I came back three days ago and I heard that I brought a lot of southern specialties, including jewelry, perfumed dresses, etc.
On the day of the tea party, Carol came to the Winter Palace to greet her. It is also a white knight uniform, which looks very eye-catching.
"Nice to meet you, Sir Carol." Vivian put her hand in Carol's.
"I hope I didn't disturb the young lady's rest." Carol's expression was softer than last time.
There is no cloud in the blue sky, as pure as clean glass or the sapphire in the hands of a businessman.
Vivian was in a good mood, and Fia and Anne sat across from each other and whispered, feeling that Carol and their lady were a good match.
Many aristocratic ladies will get engaged after their coming-of-age ceremony.
Noble women came of age at the age of sixteen and had to get married before the age of twenty-five, otherwise they would be sent to a monastery unless they inherited the title. However, there are very few women who can actually inherit the title, not to mention that it must be done before the age of twenty-five.
In the original plot, Victor poisoned his father to death when he became an adult, and then successfully inherited the title with the help of the power of the second prince and the queen.
Vivian will never allow him to kill anyone again. If he doesn't want to get married, he must either perform meritorious service for the empire or spend money to buy a title.
In order to prevent common people from buying titles, the nobles set the price very high. Even the lowest barony title can only be auctioned publicly with the consent of the great nobles.
When I came to the White Marquis Mansion again, it was still as lively as last time. Carol brought Vivian to her mother and left. He was not interested in jewelry, so he rarely attended his mother's tea parties.
Mrs. Camilla was very enthusiastic. When she saw Vivian, she smiled and praised her for her beauty and purity. She was indeed the "white rose of the empire".
"Oh, I finally see you, beautiful Vivian."
"Auntie, you are so beautiful today."
"The purple dress suits you very well. Look at this amethyst. It matches your look today."
Lady Camilla was so generous that she gave the amethyst to Vivian and introduced her to the noble ladies present.
Vivian saw it. Camilla used the tea party to promote jewelry and dresses brought from the south. She had to say that this was a good idea.
During the tea party, Vivian was treated as a doll by her aunt, who kept piling gems on her body to show her to the lady.
"Vivian, thank you for your hard work today." Mrs. Camilla looked at the dense reservations and said with a smile.
"I'm glad I can help my aunt." Vivian tried hard to maintain her ladylike image.
"Here, this is a gift for you."
"Thank you, aunt."
When Vivian returned, she rested for two days before she recovered.
The weather is getting hotter and hotter, and she wants to return to the north as soon as possible, but unfortunately the palace ball has not yet been held. There are large-scale events in the Balia Empire throughout the four seasons, including spring festivals, summer dances, autumn hunts, and winter New Years.
Women's coming-of-age ceremony takes place at the summer dance, and men's coming-of-age ceremony takes place during the autumn hunt. The completely different seasons and activities represent different ways of training men and women in the empire.
The Coming of Age Ceremony ends in May, and the royal family holds a masquerade ball in the last three days. Every year, many people liberate their natures and pursue romantic encounters at dance parties.
Victor was underage and did not attend the dance even when he came to the royal capital, but he did a lot of tricks behind the scenes. First he joined forces with the heir of the Royston family, then he found someone to kidnap and threaten Eunice, and finally he wanted to kill Vivian. I have to say that he was really busy!
"Victor, come with me to the theater tomorrow." During dinner, Vivian suddenly spoke.
During this time, she asked Victor to have dinner with her. Victor dared not speak out in anger because someone was better at acting than him.
If the siblings quarrel, the maids and knights of the Winter Palace will all side with Vivian without exception. Because he looked gloomy and irritable, the maids were reluctant to even serve her.
"Okay, sister." Victor replied with a smile.
The Grand Theater is in the central square of the Fifth District, with a huge plaque hanging on the door. Theater staff saw the carriage coat of arms engraved with the "Snow Wolf" logo and immediately came out to greet them.
"I am very honored to have our distinguished guests come here. I hope you can have a pleasant time." The theater owner personally took the siblings to the best seats and sat down.
"I'm looking forward to your musical." Vivian nodded slightly in agreement.
The theater was packed, and soon the lights were focused on the stage, and the red velvet curtains parted to the left and right.
Vivian looked at the center of the stage intently. Victor's eyes looked half curious and half bored.
