Time Travelling: My Love from the Royal Family

In order to confirm if the Holy Maiden of the South Kingdom really came to the inn for her, Harper decided to go downstairs and have a look. When she came out of her room, it so happened that she saw the keeper of the inn carefully making a pot of tea. It was a high-end tea set so Harper assumed that it was going to be served to the Holy Maiden.

The moment Harper appeared at the staircase, the Holy Maiden became aware of her presence. She poured a cup of tea by herself and pushed it to the opposite side of the table. While looking at Harper, she asked, "Would you like a cup of tea?"

Her words took Harper by surprise. At that point, Harper was certain that the Holy Maiden really came for her. But as far as she could remember, she hadn't had any contact with her. So she couldn't figure out why the respected maiden would invite her to have some tea.

Despite how stunned she was by the unexpected invitation from the Holy Maiden, Harper took the last few steps of the stairs with composure and sat down oppos

interrupt her. Matthew had told her some information about the Holy Maiden before. So deep in her heart, Harper felt so much empathy for her. The Holy Maiden was separated from her parents ever since she was a child. So every single time that there was a festival or an occasion, she was alone at the Starry Palace while everyone else was meeting up with their family and friends. While everyone was enjoying a happy time, she might have been desolately weeping in loneliness. While other children were playing games, she was improving her poisoning skills. When other children had grown up, got married, and had children, she was still by herself in that palace because the Holy Maiden must remain a virgin.

"Are you married?" the Holy Maiden asked all of a sudden.

Nodding her head, Harper answered, "Yes, I'm married. My husband is very kind, and he allows me to be myself. He's a merchant who specializes in medical supplies trading. Sometimes, he would bring me along when he comes here to sell our products."
