A nobleman stepped forward and brought the prepared gift to Linda first. Daphne accepted it on Linda's behalf, and Linda nodded in gratitude, "Thank you."
Someone started, and the nobles, ministers, ladies and daughters present presented their gifts to Linda in an orderly manner.
Daphne accepted them one by one, and carefully put them into the trolley pushed by the maid. There were too many gifts, and if they were randomly thrown into the space ring, it would make people feel that His Highness Linda didn't care about their gifts.
If you put them in the trolley, everyone can understand, at least there won't be a mentality of 'His Royal Highness Linda despises them'.
The nobles in the venue delivered gifts to Daphne one after another, and soon there were only a few people present who hadn't delivered their birthday gifts.
Master Raphael, the son of the Duke of Tulip, did not send it away, nor did His Royal Highness Michelle and Novia, nor did Lei Ming Claude, the son of the Duke of the North who caught the eye.
The remaining highnesses who were not present should have given gifts to His Highness Linda in private.
"Lei Ming, won't you give the prepared gift to my imperial sister?"
"Your Highness Michelle, what about you? Didn't you prepare a gift for Your Highness Linda?" Lei Ming asked Michelle.
"Our brothers and sisters' gifts are given privately and will not appear at the dinner party." Michelle laughed.
"Oh, so you have already delivered it, it's okay, I'm not in a hurry, and it's time for that young master Raphael to show himself."
Lei Ming looked at Raphael who was walking towards Linda, and smiled at Michelle. Before the young master Raphael walked towards Linda just now, he inadvertently glanced at himself, huh, was he provoking himself?
The daughters of the noble ministers in the venue saw Raphael and made way for Raphael with interest. The handsome and handsome man attracted the attention of all the noble ladies present at the moment.
"Your Highness Linda, this is a birthday present I prepared for you. I hope you like it." Raphael came to Linda, smiled and took out a fist-sized exquisite gift box from his pocket.
"Ok?"
The moment Raphael took out the gift box, Lei Ming raised his eyebrows and groaned in his heart. He felt an inexplicable emotion from the gift box.
Michelle also seemed to feel the unusualness of the gift box. She frowned slightly and stared at the gift box in Raphael's hand.
"Your Highness Linda, this is a gift I have prepared for you. Please take a look..." Raphael slowly opened the gift box in his hand. The moment the gift box was opened, the entire hall was enveloped in blue light , On the dome of the hall, there seems to be an extra layer of sea water shining with blue stars.
"This...could it be...the heart of a mermaid?" Michelle's eyes were filled with surprise.
Lei Ming turned his head to look at Michelle, "Mermaid Heart? You can tell from His Highness's tone that this gift is unusual. What special meaning does this gift have?"
"No way, haven't you even heard of mermaid heart?" Novia the Great, who had been hiding behind Lei Ming for a long time, poked her head out and was startled by Lei Ming's ignorance.
"I know a mermaid. The heart of a mermaid... can't be the heart of a mermaid, right?"
"That's right, it's the heart of a mermaid. Normally, a mermaid's heart is the same red as ours. However, when a mermaid lady and a human male have mutual affection and fall in love with each other, their hearts will slowly change into a red color that represents the mermaid's heart." The mermaid's heart represents the blue color of 'happy, pure, sincere and only love', so the mermaid's heart also symbolizes the 'unswerving love until death'."
Novia softly explained the meaning of "Mermaid Heart" to Lei Ming.
"Novia told you the beautiful side of the 'Mermaid Heart', but what she didn't know was that when the 'Mermaid Heart' became a treasure sought after by the upper class of human beings, the mermaid family was ruthlessly hunted down by humans. To deceive Miss Mermaid's feelings, when Miss Mermaid fell in love with them, she personally dug out their blue heart representing 'happiness' from their chests."
Michelle's eyes showed disgust. Since she knew this, the mermaid heart no longer represented happiness to her, but deceit, betrayal, hypocrisy, and hatred of the same kind.
Lei Ming showed shock on his face, whoever did such a thing to Miss Mermaid can still be called a 'human'?
sad....
The inexplicable emotion he felt from the gift box before should be 'sorrow'.
Lei Ming looked at Linda, he wondered if Linda would accept this gift from Raphael, if she accepted, then after tonight, he would be no stranger to the Fifth Emperor.
"Sorry! Raphael, I can't accept this gift from you! Instead of feeling happiness from 'her', I feel the sadness and pain of 'her'. I appreciate your kindness, but 'her'... "Speaking of this, Linda took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "Please take 'her' away."

Chapter 82 Why is half of the sacred spar on my sword missing?
The crystal clear "mermaid heart" in Linda's eyes at this moment does not represent a love that will last until death, but a heart that makes her feel angry and sad.
Before, she didn't have a good impression of Raphael, but she didn't have any bad feelings either. Now, she somewhat rejected the handsome Raphael in front of her. Talking to him was far less comfortable than talking to Lei Ming.
Although she approached Lei Ming because she wanted to gain support from the northern border, she found that when she got along with Lei Ming, her desire for power was not so strong.
For tonight's birthday dinner, the people who made her look forward to it were not the noble ministers at the venue, nor Raphael, but Lei Ming.
She was looking forward to Thunder's gift.
Raphael's gentle smile froze on his face, and he refused...His Royal Highness Linda, the fifth emperor's daughter, rejected him in front of so many noble ministers and noble daughters present.
Heart of a mermaid!
There are not many mermaid hearts in the entire Odin Empire, how could she... dare to refuse?
How dare you reject him in front of so many noble ministers?
Why don't you save him some face?
Doesn't she know the consequences of losing the support of their Tulip family?
"His Royal Highness Linda, have you misunderstood something? This is the heart of a mermaid that symbolizes 'happiness'. How do you say it brings sorrow and pain?"
Raphael squeezed out a forced smile, and handed the mermaid heart to Linda again.
"Raphael, you are right. The mermaid heart does symbolize happiness, but the premise is that the mermaid lady feels happy from the bottom of her heart, and the one in your hand...she is sad, painful, and has no trace of happiness. Happiness to speak of."
Linda felt a little heartbroken. In the face of huge interests, human conscience is really worthless. Even Miss Mermaid, who lives in the deep sea and is pure and kind, can be deceived. Such people have no heart, and they are not human. skin demon.
"Master Raphael, as a nobleman, you should put away the gift box gracefully at this time, and apologize to His Highness Linda for your ignorance, instead of emphasizing how precious the 'mermaid heart' in your hand is, symbolizes something."
