Chapter: 247

However, it was more difficult than she thought.

Buttermilk was applied to her limbs all day until sunset, and a thick cream was applied to her face to brighten the skin.

“Lady, this will help repair your hair.”

In order to revive her hair which became stiff, the maid brought an unidentified mixture of egg yolks.

She washed her hair with it and applied a balm.

The maids admired Astelle.

“Oh my God, your skin is really smooth.”

“Your hair is also silky.”

Before putting on a dress, Astelle sat in front of the dressing table and applied her makeup.

She chose a lavender silk dress as her evening gown to wear to the ball. It was one of the dresses that Kaizen sent as a gift. The dress was a light purple that was as soft and elegant as lilac petals.

The skirt, flowing gracefully, was embroidered with small pale pink flowers at the bottom. The light pink flowers on the pale purple fabric looked subdued and elegant.

‘It’s been a long time since I’ve worn an evening gown.’

Her hair was lifted loosely behind the crown of her head, decorated with a lily hairpin made of pearls, gold, and silver.

She wore a pearl necklace with a small amethyst around her neck, and finally, the last touch was earrings with roses and diamonds.

In the mirror, there was a lady with her blonde hair loosely curled up.

Theor went into the room and was amazed at Astelle.

“Beautiful. You look like a princess, Aunt!”

Theor regained his energy in a matter of days.

In order not to leave any after-effects of his shock, Hannah continued to bring him delicious snacks, and the Marquis played with him all day.

Under the care of the two of them, Theor was more energetic than before.

“I’ll be back. Listen to grandfather and go to bed early .”

“Yes!”

After stroking Theor’s hair, Astelle set off for the ball.

The ball was held in the banquet hall in the main palace of the castle.
