Chapter 34: To Be Loved Like This
Zaiyila's expression froze and she looked at Everett immediately. "That... this..." She didn't know what to say; her mind was in chaos as she dare not imagine too much.
Everett chuckled and laced his fingers with Zaiyila's.
"Yes, this banquet is for you—to celebrate my queen's willingness to be with me," he murmured into her ear, his voice low enough for only her to hear.
Zaiyila's eyes welled up with tears, and she covered her mouth to keep from screaming. She was overwhelmed with joy. Never in her wildest dreams had she imagined being the host of a banquet. It was unimaginable—and now, all she wanted was to shower Everett with kisses and express her feelings.
Everyone was looking at Zaiyila. Aside from her exceedingly rare beauty, she looked incredibly cute in her surprised state. No one could tear their gaze away from her, though they all knew better than to ogle the devil's wife. One by one, they forced themselves to look away.
