The Eldest Daughter Walks the Path of Flowers Episode 190
When she regained consciousness, Radis found herself back in the drawing room.
Ban lifted the teacup he had been drinking from slightly and said.
“You’re back? Just as master ordered, I’ve been drinking lots of tea.”
“Ban…! How can you suddenly send someone to the future like that?”
Just as Radis was about to scold Ban.
The drawing room door burst open and the Duke’s maids came rushing in.
“Lady Radis! Where have you been?”
“We’ve been looking for you for a while.”
“More importantly, there’s suddenly a banquet. You need to prepare right now!”
“Huh? A banquet, all of a sudden?”
Radis was immediately seized and dragged away by the maids. Ban sent her a bright smile and waved his hand.
“Master, see you later.”
“You better be ready for a proper scolding later!”
After warning Ban, Radis asked the maids.
“What kind of banquet is it?”
But Berry and Melody smoothly avoided her gaze and busily played dumb.
“Well, you know? It was so sudden we couldn’t hear properly…!”
“Anyway, you’ll find out when you go!”
Radis realized.
A banquet suddenly being held after Eve called everyone except her for a discussion.
‘Could this be something like a surprise party? A party to celebrate having a baby?’
Radis inwardly smacked her own forehead.
‘Why didn’t I think of this until now?’
If that was the case, there was something she needed to do now.
‘Let’s pretend I haven’t noticed yet.’
Eve was in a very busy state, managing the vast estate of Luare as well as taking on the affairs of the Barony of Gloria. How much effort must he have put into preparing a surprise party without her noticing.
‘I can’t let Eve’s efforts go to waste.’
She pretended not to notice anything as much as possible and put on the pure white dress the maids led her to wear. It was a very beautiful dress reminiscent of pure white gladiolus.
Radis looked in the mirror and smiled happily.
“The dress is very pretty.”
Berry looked up at her rapturously and chattered.
“Of course. His Grace specially from the capital for today…”
Melody firmly covered Berry’s mouth.
“I’m glad you like it!”
Seeing the struggling maids made her feel sorry. They must have suffered quite a bit in the middle. Like now.
‘For now, pretending not to know anything would be best, right?’
She pretended not to notice anything, fixed her hair, put on accessories, and headed to the banquet hall. At the entrance to the banquet hall, Eve was waiting for her.
“My lady.”
He was wearing black formal wear today. In the light of the chandelier, his golden eyes sparkled beautifully like the most precious jewels in the world.
Radis looked up at him and smiled brightly.
“Eve, did you cut your hair?”
Eve’s hair, which had grown a bit shaggy during his busy schedule, was neatly trimmed. He showed his sculpturally noble face and smiled warmly.
“Yes. Today is an important day.”
Radis continued earnestly ‘pretending not to know anything.’
“Is today an important day?”
“Yes, my lady.”
“What’s going on? I was surprised to hear there was suddenly a banquet.”
Eve looked at her with eyes hot with mixed emotions and said tenderly.
“You’ll find out when we go in.”
“Alright. Let’s go quickly.”
Radis took Eve’s hand and entered the banquet hall, prepared to be surprised. And she was truly startled. Pure white flowers poured down like a waterfall from above her head.
“Kyaak…!”
Eve laughed and wrapped his arms around her.
“Stop, stop! This is a bit too much!”
The flower spirits that had been pouring flowers at the banquet hall entrance giggled and scattered in all directions.
Among the pure white flowers falling like summer raindrops, Radis looked around in bewilderment.
The entire spacious grand banquet hall was decorated with golden banners and white flowers. In the banquet hall, all the people she loved had gathered and were receiving the flower rain the spirits were showering together.
Elizabeth, holding a champagne glass, cheerfully shouted.
“Lord Gloria, congratulations!”
Starting with the Empress’s cry, congratulations poured from all directions.
“I’m so happy. Eve, Radis. Congratulations.”
“My disciple, you must be happy!”
Not only the Duke’s great lady Meriel and her teacher Daniel, but even Robert, whom she thought wasn’t here, and the entire Gloria Mercenary Corps were all present.
“Sincere congratulations!”
“You’re beautiful!”
Radis sent a stern look to Laszlo, who was hopping around and whistling. Unfortunately, it didn’t seem to work very well.
‘No, that’s not what’s important right now. This is too big for a surprise party…!’
White flower rain was falling from all directions, and red flowers were laid like a red carpet from where she stood to the dais in the center of the banquet hall. She had never seen such a beautiful banquet.
Eve offered his arm to her.
“My lady, shall we go?”
Radis took Eve’s arm and walked while asking in a confused voice.
“Eve, what is all this?”
“Radis, do you really not know?”
“No.”
Eve Russel looked somewhat troubled, yet smiled with embarrassment and happiness as he said.
“Well, this is… our wedding ceremony.”
“What did you say?”
Radis’s eyes widened.
“What do you mean? We’re already married…!”
Eve grinned.
“Right. Wait, please listen to me.”
Then he went and stood with her on the dais. The dais was small, with nothing but a brazier where sacred flames burned.
Eve looked around and spoke.
“Thank you sincerely for gracing this occasion despite your busy schedules. As I mentioned beforehand, today is the second wedding ceremony for Lord Gloria and myself!”
Applause burst out from here and there. Meriel showed an utterly pleased smile.
“Yes. You’re finally having a proper wedding ceremony.”
Eve continued speaking as the applause died down.
“As you all know, Lord Gloria and I held our own wedding ceremony, announcing our sacred union to the gods. I was satisfied with that. Until now, that is.”
He turned his head to look at Radis. Radis looked up at him with wide eyes.
Eve met her gaze and said in a gentle voice.
“Recently, I learned that the gods have sent us, as a couple, the most precious gift. Hasty as I am, I was simply joyful. However, thoughtful Lord Gloria seemed to have as much worry as joy. Worries about whether we could become good parents, whether we could give love to our child… such worries.”
Elizabeth, overcome with emotion, sniffled quietly. Emperor Olivier could be seen gently placing a hand on the Empress’s back.
Eve continued in a bright voice.
“Seeing my worried wife, I pondered together with her. And I soon realized. We will definitely be able to do it. Because Lord Gloria is the best companion to me and a wonderful friend to all of you. She was already generously giving us the most precious love…!”
Robert laughed cheerfully and said in a loud voice.
“Those are right words, Your Grace!”
“Your Lordship, we love you!”
“Both of you, we like you so much…!”
Even Olivier smiled and nodded. Radis looked up at Eve with both cheeks red from embarrassment.
“Radis.”
Eve lowered his head toward her and spoke in a gentle voice.
“Now you understand, don’t you? There’s no need to worry. We’ll do just fine.”
Radis felt tears filling her chest and both her eyes. She nodded with more perfect certainty than she had ever felt in her entire life.
Just like that, Eve kissed her. She joyfully closed her eyes.
Flower petals poured down like rain, and so did the applause and cheers. It was a perfect moment that needed no words.
