"So, do you know?" Emperor Alex asked, a small smile playing on his lips as he looked at Arthur.
Hearing this, Arthur's smile froze, and he let out a sigh.
After all, he knew that this situation was his fault for lying, and he had to take responsibility.
"Yeah, maybe he's outside," Arthur replied in a low voice, his gaze shifting to Lucia, who still wore a smile.
"Would Princess Lucia like me to accompany her to meet him?" he asked.
"After all, I'm more familiar with the neighborhood," Arthur added.
Upon hearing Arthur's offer, Lucia nodded immediately, maintaining her smile and never taking her eyes off him.
"Alright, please lead the way," she said.
Arthur noticed the change in Lucia's expression but didn't pay much attention to it.
The two of them soon walked side by side toward the outside.
The onlookers weren't particularly surprised, as it was natural for two individuals of equal status to be associated with each other.
