She lowered her head, her fingers unconsciously clutching the hem of her dress, silently praying she hadn’t drawn attention.

But since they had come over on their own, she couldn’t just turn around and run away.

Thus, she could only brace herself and step forward, folding her hands in front of her waist, and perform a most proper curtsey.

In her heart, she silently prayed.

Don’t let them find fault with her manners.

Kneeling in public was something she really couldn’t do.

It would not only go against her character, but also give her an indescribable sense of humiliation.

However, Kate wasn’t concerned at all and instead gave a bright smile.

What frustrated Selene Kane somewhat was.

From the moment she appeared, Caleb Shaw instantly tensed up.

His back straightened, his originally relaxed expression was immediately replaced with a stern one.

His right hand instinctively rested on the handle of the gun at his waist.

His gaze turned sharp as a knife, staring straight at Selene Kane.

He was on guard against her.

Selene Kane clearly felt that hostility.

"Greetings, Your Highness."

She said softly, her voice steady.

She didn’t have much of an impression of this Princess.

She had only heard a few fragmented rumors from the palace attendants.

She didn’t expect the real person to be completely different from the Empress.

No sharp oppression, nor aloof indifference.

Instead, she resembled her Beast Husband father more, with a hint of wild liveliness in her brows and eyes.

Especially the little fang at the corner of her mouth, faintly visible when she smiled, lacking the expected seriousness and formality of a Princess.

Kate, however, seemed completely unaware of her restraint.

Instead, like a curious kitten, she bounced around her in a circle.

She looked Selene Kane up and down, tilting her head with a smile, "Not as scary as others say. Caleb never talks about you to me. Turns out it’s because you’re so adorable he wants to keep you all to himself."

Selene Kane’s cheeks suddenly blushed lightly, her earlobes burning.

She lowered her head, too afraid to respond, and even more so to meet Caleb’s gaze.

On Caleb’s side, his previously stern expression also slightly froze.

He quickly withdrew his hand from the gun handle, his Adam’s apple bobbed slightly, but he said nothing.

For a moment, the air seemed to freeze, leaving only the lingering background music in the jewelry store.

"Your Highness misunderstood, we are just ordinary husband and wife."

Selene Kane was almost startled by her agile movements, her heart gave a fierce jolt, her steps instinctively retreated half an inch.

A second ago, Kate’s figure was still faintly visible under the candlelight on the right.

The next second, she quietly flickered to the left like a light feather.

When she landed, even the fallen leaves on the ground made no sound.

Such agility, indeed a talent from the Beast Clan bloodline.

Sleek, light, with a natural wild elegance.

Initially, she thought the Princess would be cold to her, even hostile.

After all, she was Caleb’s wife, and Kate was his childhood acquaintance.

But now, it seemed, the other party was amicable, without any grudge, it was herself who had overthought.

"How could it be ordinary?"

Kate tilted her head, the corners of her lips curling into a meaningful smile.

"I can see you two have a strong bond in your eyes, that can’t be faked."

Kate suddenly leaned in, her nose almost touching Selene Kane’s cheek.

Her smile was sweet, yet held a slightly mischievous intent.

"I just felt it, you already have Caleb’s little baby in your belly."

Her whole body jolted, pupils dilating, heart feeling like it was being tightly squeezed, almost unable to breathe.

Selene Kane suddenly swayed, her fingertips icy, her legs weak.

Her whole body almost couldn’t stand, if her heel hadn’t caught the stone steps in time, she might have collapsed to the ground.

Kate’s waist was supple, approaching lightly like a snake, almost pressing against Selene Kane’s shoulder.

That special pressure from the Beast Clan, carrying a musk-like scent, came overwhelmingly.

Selene Kane instinctively shrank back.

But a sudden ache came from her lower back, an old injury faintly throbbed, her body swayed, she was about to fall backward.

At the critical moment, a warm and powerful hand steadily supported her waist.

It was Zane.

At some point, he had swiftly stepped forward, his gaze stern.

Selene Kane had just let out a sigh of relief, her heartbeat yet to calm, unexpectedly lost her balance as her body rebounded.

Her head tilted, her forehead colliding with Kate’s nose without deviation.

"Ouch!"

Kate cried out in pain.

She quickly covered her nose and staggered back, eventually falling to the ground.

Yet even in such an embarrassing posture, she didn’t seem at all undignified.

Her brows and eyes remained delicate, a hint of tears glistening in her eyes.

Instead, it added a more endearing fragile beauty.

"Selene Kane!"

Caleb Shaw rushed forward, closing the distance in two or three steps, his boots thudding heavily against the stone slabs.

He扶起凯特,看姜馨月的眼神里满是责备.

"How dare you touch the Princess, take them down!"

Caleb Shaw’s voice was deep.

At his command, the guards hidden in the surroundings immediately surrounded them.

In an instant, Selene Kane and Zane were encircled.

For the first time, Zane displayed such a clear hostility in front of everyone.

His brows furrowed tightly, he unhesitatingly shielded Selene Kane behind him.

Meanwhile, Caleb had already crouched beside Kate, gently patting her back, softly asking if she was alright.

The distance between the two was very close, their posture intimate.

Standing in stark contrast to Selene Kane and Zane on the other side.

Selene Kane raised her head to look at him, her gaze meeting Caleb’s green eyes through the crowd.

But at that moment, she saw a flicker of avoidance in his eyes.

Kate rubbed her dizzied head, her temple slightly reddened.

She lightly shook her head, trying to clear her vision.

Then she raised a radiant smile, lifting her hand to wave.

"No need to worry, I’m really fine, I just lost my balance, slipped and fell, it’s not her fault at all."

Selene Kane looked at them, her heart a whirl of mixed emotions.

The scene before her was too natural.

Truly a suitable match, Kate’s lively spirit complemented Caleb’s calm composure, enhancing each other, as if naturally meant to be together.

They had known each other for years, already having a tacit understanding.

While she, Selene Kane, was merely an outsider who had barged in halfway.

Kate gently patted Caleb’s arm, her tone soft, suggesting he help her up: "How can you speak to your own Female Master like that now? Even if Mother Empress sent you to protect me, that’s just business. I won’t favor you because of it."

Her words carried a trace of playful reproach.

In an instant, she felt like an outsider, standing apart from them, out of place.

She looked down at her own hands, her fingertips slightly cool.

Caleb seemed to finally relax, his tense back slightly eased.

"Selene, apologize to the Princess."

Selene Kane felt somewhat uncomfortable, her chest weighed down, as if blocked by something.

She understood that she had indeed acted too impulsively earlier, letting her emotions get the best of her, losing her grip in front of everyone.

She bit her lip, eventually lowering her head.

"I’m sorry, Your Highness, I was not thoughtful enough and offended you. Please forgive my rudeness."
