Maliah clenched her fists so tight as she stared at them until they got to their special table too.
“This isn’t good” Sitara muttered and glanced at Maliah.
“What about the picture?” Rona asked.
“I want to be alone for a while” Maliah muttered and walked awsy.
“That dress she wore” Sitara muttered, staring at Diora.
“I know, it’s the one who had to drop, because it was too expensive” Rona replied and Sitara shook her head.
“He’s spoiling her, badly” She muttered.
THE VALLEY OF HATE AND LOVE : CHAPTER 41 – 50
Diora sat quietly, observing the stream of guests approaching, Kyros, he’s indeed the Duke.
Many came to pay their respects, bowing their heads in deference. Some took the opportunity to greet her as well, but only a handful.
The ladies and older women flocked to Kyros, embracing him warmly and kissing his cheeks that Diora wondered if it was normal they were all over him,and shamelessly flirting when it’s obvious they are all older than him.
The men, on the other hand, shook his hand or shared a brief hug. Diora watched as her husband smiled graciously, returning each greeting with ease. So he does smiles? What does she expect anyway? Those fake smiles of his.
The royal ball hall was filled with the soft hum of conversation and the rustling of fine fabrics as the guests mingled.
Diora’s eyes scanned the room, taking in the vibrant colors and the air of elegance that permeated the space.
As the guests continued to arrive, Diora’s presence seemed almost forgotten, with most of the attention focused on her esteemed husband, the Duke.
Yet, she sat serenely, a picture of poise and refinement, amidst the whirlwind of social niceties.
Until she felt a bigger hand placed on top of hers which were resting on her laps before, she looked down to see Kyros hand,then she looked at his face.
“Are you nervous?” He asked.
Diora nodded.
“Why?” He asked.
“My parents are here, and my sisters too. But, it’s my first time” Diora replied.
Kyros raised his brows.
“Your parents? And sisters? Where ??” He asked.
Diora took her time to show him her family,lowkey.
“Romano is your father?” Kyros scoffs, looking totally unimpressed.
Diora nodded. She expected them to be below Kyros, I mean, Kyros the duke of the whole of Athens, but her father is just one of the many Politicians in the city with a position, nothing Special.
Soon, the party started in full and that got her concentration, since it’s her first time,she really wants to enjoy every bit of it.
Some minutes later, Kyros phone rang and he excused him to go answer, it’s an important one.
Diora’s eyes followed him till he was out of sight, she sighed nervously and tried as much as possible to focus but it was as if all eyes were on her.
How much she hates attention, a lot.
