Chapter 1723
The girl was sizing Nollace up. After a short while, she extended her arm to Nollace and offered him a sweet smile.
“Hi, my name is Zenovia Livingston.”
Nollace grasped her hand due to courtesy and replied indifferently, “Nice to meet you.”
He quickly drew back his hand. The only reason he was responding to her was only because of basic etiquette.
Zenovia could feel the residual warmth in the palm of her hand. She looked at the handsome young man who was
about her own age in front of her, and a feeling that she had never experienced before surged inside of her.
Ever since he came into the banquet hall until he stood in front of her, Zenovia realized that he was the prince
charming that she had been waiting for the whole time.
Nollace left the banquet hall midway through the banquet. Zenovia went around looking for him, and she finally
found him on a balcony outside the corridor.
He was leaning against the armrest, looking down at the large fountain in the garden downstairs. He seemed to be

Zenovia walked toward him and greeted himn. “Mr. Knowles.”
Nollace retracted his gaze and turned around to look at her. He replied faintly, “How can I help you?” Zenovia
stopped in front of him and chuckled. “I saw you standing here alone, so I came over. What’s on your mind?”
Nollace did not reply. Zenovia was not angered. Instead, she teased him. “That is so sad. Don’t you think you should
give some reaction when a pretty girl talks to you?”
Nollace squinted, and his face was expressionless. “It seems to me that you have a lot of confidence in yourself.”
Zenovia was stunned for a few seconds. However, she soon came around to her senses and collected her hair
behind her back. “Of course. I’m pretty confident in myself. Besides, it’s essential for women to be confident, don’t
you think?”
She had a lot of suitors back in Haniston, but those men were only interested in her looks, body, and family
background. She had seen the true nature of many men. She initially thought that she would have to follow the
arrangement of her family and get married to a man who matched her status.
When she agreed to come to Yaramoor to attend the banquet with her father, she never thought she would
come across a man she was attracted to.
His status matched hers. His appearance and temperament were both outstanding, and he was her type.
“His Majesty William asked me to make friends with you. You’re familiar with Yaramoor, right? Do you mind showing
me around tomorrow?” she said, seemingly very confident that he would accept her warm invitation.
Looking at his phone, Nollace replied nonchalantly, “I’m sorry, but I’m occupied tomorrow.”
Her smile froze, and she was stunned slightly. However, she soon regained her composure and offered him a polite
smile. “You’re busy?” “Yeah,” he replied. He had been looking at the screen of his phone, and it seemed like he was
messaging someone. There was no way Zenovia would give up on him, so she pressed on. “If you’re busy
tomorrow, then what about the day after tomorrow?” He lifted his eyelids and looked at her coldly. “What do you
think?”
However, she failed to read between the lines and said, “I think it’s okay. If not, I can ask you out again when you
have time.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHis gaze was deep as he asked, “Are all women in Haniston the same as you? It seems to me that you like to
make the first move.”
Zenovia took a step closer to him and raised her eyebrows. “In my country, we believe that we need to go for it if
we see something that we want.”
She inadvertently glanced at the screen of his phone, but he put his phone back into his pocket before she could
see it clearly. However, her intuition as a woman told her that the screen saver on his phone was a woman.
“Do you have a celebrity that you like too, Mr. Knowles?”
“Not interested.”
She chuckled lightly. “But the screen saver on your phone seems like a picture of a female celebrity to me.” Nollace
frowned slightly and replied without any hesitation, “She’s my fiancee.”
“You… You have a fiancee?” Zenovia was stunned.
“But King William told me that he’s still single?’
“You can have my grandfather get someone to show you around. It isn’t appropriate for me to take you, and I’m
sure that my fiancee won’t like it.”
After he finished speaking, he walked past him and left the balcony.
