After storming out of the chamber in anger, Juniper collided with Zilia.
"June, shall we go see Amelie?" Zilia asked with a gentle smile. "I've been thinking about what we could give her as a present. I even discussed it with Casaio earlier, but he was busy and told me to choose whatever I liked."
Juniper's gaze hardened. "Zilia, can we talk?"
Zilia noticed the coldness in her tone and felt a flicker of unease. Nodding quickly, she replied, "Of course. Let's go over there," gesturing toward the large balcony.
Juniper followed with brisk steps. Once outside, she rested her hand on the balustrade as she looked at the pleasant sky. She then began carefully, "So… how does it feel to be the next Queen?"
"What?" Zilia exclaimed sharply.
Juniper chuckled softly. "You got such a… big wedding gift," she continued, her voice trembling with suppressed anger. "No one expected it would happen this way. Only a few months ago, you were arrested on charges of espionage."
