The Most Powerful Characters In The World Are Obsessed With Me

t her necklace looked like an imitation.

Cedric hurriedly supported her.

But he was pale too.
He promised to make her shine the most, but he let her hear that kind of thing.

Eridon, who unintentionally shamed both the Empress and the Prince, was unaware of anything and just looked challengingly at Dalia.

Dalia felt very uncomfortable.

“……It was lent by Her Majesty the Empress as a personal favor to Miss Dalia.
It’s an invaluable gift from the Emperor on a special occasion.
I’m sorry that it looked like a fake.”

Cedric spoke instead of the Empress, who couldn’t bear to speak.

Maybe because he was shocked too or maybe because his expression wasn’t good, but he seemed like he could kill Eridon with his eyes.

Eridon’s expression stiffened.

“……What?”

“Ah, I’m sorry.
I need to go.”

The Empress put her hand on her forehead as if she could not overcome the shock.

She cherished the necklace as it was a special gift from the Emperor.

“……I’d rather hear you criticizing me.”

The Empress spoke softly and staggered away.

Eridon was still standing there blankly as if she had heard something she shouldn’t.

Dalia poked the hesitant Cedric on the side and pushed him to the Empress.

She’s already upset since he’s taking care of Dalia, so shouldn’t he stay next to her at times like this?

‘Just act cute and set her mind at ease.’

Dalia said so with her eyes.

She doesn’t know if Cedric understands, but he kissed the back of Dalia’s hand for a long time, full of regret, and followed the Empress.

Now only Eridon and Dalia left.

Eridon’s face was worth seeing.
Her face turned very white, then blue, then quickly flushed with shame.

‘So why would you pick a fight with an innocent person?’

Dalia sighed deeply.

“Well, Miss Eridon.”

“Yes, please say it.”

“Did I do something against you, Miss Eridon?”

Dalia asked calmly.

In her own way, Dalia was giving her a chance to set things right.
However, it rather seemed to stimulate the agitated Eridon completely.

The Empress has left too.

Eridon let out a shriek and trembled in agitation,thinking that she would only be a fool if she backed out of here.

“Oh my God, what are you talking about? I’m really worried about Miss Dalia, so I suggested it as a favor thinking that you might have lost money because you were too innocent! Why on earth would you say that?”

Eridon was making quite a fuss and soon drew attention.

Dalia wanted to touch her forehead.

She could see Adrisha approaching in the distance.
Dalia stopped her with a gesture.

There was no need for that.

“You must think I said that because I hated Miss Dalia, but it was a mistake.
Really, really a mistake……!”

“What are you doing now? Why are you harassing Miss Dalia Pesteros?”

However, unexpectedly, the helping hand came from a strange person.
From someone that she didn’t really want to be involved with.

An unfamiliar voice interrupted the agitated Eridon.

Dalia turned her head.
A handsome young man she had never seen before blatantly blocked between her and Eridon.

‘I didn’t even ask for help then why?’

Moreover, the attitude of the young man was overly theatrical.

“I’m, I’m sorry.”

What’s even more bizarre was Eridon’s reaction.

Just now she was being extremely upset.

But as soon as she saw the young man, her face turned white again, and in an instant she shrank like a deflated balloon.

For some reason, it feels like someone had something on her.

‘Suspicious, it’s suspicious.’

Dalia, who had seen Viscount Arthur Pendleton and Mary the decoy, has developed more skills in figuring out the situation.

She narrowed her eyes further and looked at the man who turned around with a wonderful expression on his face.

He kissed the back of Dalia’s hand without permission and smiled.

“Hello, Miss Dalia Pesteros.
Have you lost your partner?”

It was also a minus point for not introducing himself first.

She smiled and turned around.

“Thank you for your help, unknown gentleman.”

“Ah, I didn’t introduce myself.”

“…….”

“I’m Felix Artus.
The eldest son of the Duke of Artus.”
