Chapter 1062 Destined To Be His Fiancee
As it was Heidi’s first time attending a royal banquet, she was shocked by the grand and luxurious decor in the hall.
She got so distracted that she didn’t hear Geert and Helma whispering behind her.
“Father, why is Prince Jonathan being so cold to me? Do you think something’s going to happen during the
engagement today?” Helma asked worriedly.
“Of course not! Bastien is a prince, so he can’t be flirting with you on such a formal occasion! He’s not being cold,
Helma. He’s being formal and dignified,” Geert replied sternly.
Helma bit her lip. “But—”
“That’s enough, Helma. Lady Frieda has made her intentions very clear with her words and attitude toward you, so
you have nothing to worry about!” Geert cut her off impatiently.
I feel Bastien is just being gentle toward me. I don’t think he has any feelings for me, but Father said Lady Frieda
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtlikes me, so I guess I should stop worrying about it. Maybe I am really just overthinking it. Regardless, I’m destined
to become Bastien’s fiancée after tonight!
Helma was snapped out of her train of thought when Geert patted her on the shoulder. “Stop worrying about it,
Helma. There will be countless eyes on you tonight, so you need to stay focused. Don’t screw this up, or you’ll ruin
the reputation of both your mother and the Leitz family. Is that understood?”
Helma nodded solemnly. “I understand, Father. I won’t dishonor our family name.”
Having gotten an eyeful of the luxurious decor, Heidi turned around and broke into a wry smile when she saw the
two of them whispering among themselves.
Heh… Father always places Helma’s and the Leitz family’s interests above everything else. Because of that, Mother
and I have always had to make compromises. I wouldn’t even be putting up an act here with them if I didn’t need
their power to get my revenge on Natalie!
Moments later, the king of Loang made a grand appearance in the banquet hall with lots of servants escorting him.

The guests all bowed respectfully to him as he made his way toward the throne.
Frieda, and his other two wives, Shirley Clarke and Cynthia Holton, were all seated beside him.
Although the king of Loang no longer had a huge harem like his predecessors, he was still allowed to have multiple
wives. Each of his wives was equal in status and only differed in age.
Mikhail Scholl had four wives, but the first one had died from an illness, so only three remained.
His four wives had given birth to ten children, four of which were male and six of which were female. Therefore, the
royal family had four princes and six princesses.
The guests waited until the king was seated before standing up straight.

“There are plenty of decent, unmarried girls at the party tonight. Did you find any of them to your liking?” Mikhail
asked with a smile.
“Yes, Father.”
“You’re the only one among your siblings who is not married yet. Tonight, I shall help you out with that. Your mother
has been pestering me about getting you a wife, so I figured I’d take care of it on your birthday.”
“Thank you, Father,” Bastien replied while clenching his fists tightly. He had long since made up his mind on the
matter.
Natalie felt an inexplicable sense of helplessness when she was brought to the banquet hall.
The royal family was so secretive that even someone of Jerome’s rank wasn’t entitled to an event like this.
It’s as if I’m being locked in a huge, luxurious cage… It may give off the illusion that you can do whatever you like,
but the fact remains that it is still a cage. There is no actual freedom. If you try to spread your wings, you’ll only
hurt yourself by crashing into the cage walls.
“Are you sure I should be here? Could there have been some kind of mistake?” Natalie asked Sebastian anxiously.
“You may rest assured that this is no mistake, Ms. Nichols. This is all part of Prince Jonathan’s instructions. All you
have to do is wait patiently,” Sebastian replied politely.
