When Pride Falls at Your Feet (19 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 55
Until just a moment ago, she hadn’t felt even a trace of the surrounding gazes that had previously weighed so heavily on her mind. She’d become so lost in her own thoughts that she hadn’t even noticed Enrico approaching her side.
“Dance one with me.”
“Your Grace?”
“If you only dance with the Crown Prince, who already has a fiancée, it might stir up strange rumors. But if you dance with all the royals, the newspapers will simply report you as the most admired woman at the ball.”
His reasoning sounded logical enough. Emilia absentmindedly took his hand and began to dance. Yet, recalling Alessandro’s earlier mention of engagement arrangements made her wonder—how was this any different from dancing with Alessandro?
“…But don’t you also have a fiancée, Your Grace?”
“I’ve never had one.”
“Well… aren’t you about to get one soon?”
At her probing question, as if she knew something, one of Enrico’s eyebrows arched sharply upward.

“You’ve been busier than usual lately. I figured such matters would naturally demand your time.”
“My recent busyness has nothing to do with that.”

Fate played a cruel twist when Qiu Shuzhi – a young female official who had just passed the imperial examinations with top honors – stepped into his life. She did not know that she was the one who had saved him from a tragic fate many years ago. And now, her heart was the target of pursuit for both Yue Guanyi and the powerful Empress Dowager Qin Qing.
While Yue Guanyi only dared to silently care for and protect the one he loved from afar, the Empress Dowager Qin Qing openly expressed his feelings and did not hesitate to take advantage of his power to approach Qiu Shuzhi. The covert struggle between the two most powerful forces in the imperial court began…
