Chapter 420 Fate Binds Us

Chapter 420 Fate binds us

As soon as her words were finished, it aroused the dissatisfaction of a group of females around.

They looked at Martha with anger, disdain and disgust.

The females couldn't understand why the King fell for such a rude woman.

In their view, such a woman did not deserve to be here at all.

Could it be that the queen just watched King Ducasse being deceived by such a woman?

Everyone looked at Martha with unkind eyes, and some couldn't help but started talking in a low voice.

At this moment, Martha took a deep breath and was about to continue talking when a joyful symphony suddenly sounded in the banquet hall.

Before Martha came back to his senses, King Ducasse stretched out his hand to hold Martha's hand again, and said gentlemanly, "Beautiful Lady Martha, I wonder if I have the honor to invite you to dance the first dance at the palace banquet today?"

Martha could feel the eyes focused on her at this moment, and knew that today was the day when Alain Ducasse had just succeeded to the throne, and she couldn't embarrass him.

After thinking about it quickly, she looked apologetically at the man standing in front of her.

"Sorry, I can't dance."

She was politely declining Ducasse's request, but it was also true that she really didn't know how to dance.

Martha thought that after hearing this response, Alain would let go of her hand. But instead he smiled and held onto Martha's hand tightly as he led her into the center of the dance floor. "It's very simple. Just follow my lead," he said with a grin.

The onlookers were shocked by what they saw - they never expected their king to do something like this! Especially Daisy who watched with jealousy in her eyes.

She stared at the scene not far away, so angry that she was about to flare up.

This was the first dance of the prince's succession to the throne, how could King Ducasse choose someone as ordinary as Martha for his first dance!

Damn it, what qualifications did Martha have to be dancing with King Ducasse?

Lina, who was standing next to her, saw this scene, clutching the hem of her skirt tightly, wishing to go up and pull Martha away from him.

How could someone like King Ducasse be dancing with such an insignificant person like Martha on such an important day?

Martha, a damned woman, with her dirty dress, shouldn't have had the nerve to dance with the king.

When the two of them were jealous, Louis watched from afar feeling conflicted inside.

King Ducasse had taken an interest in Martha, and all this developed just as the mother thought.

Martha's aloof demeanor and behavior made him curious about who she really was which only increased his interest even more.

In this way, the people around the dance floor looked at Alain and Martha dancing in the middle of the dance floor with various expressions on their faces.

The queen dowager who was standing at the main seat saw the scene not far away, she curled her lips into a chuckle, her eyes were full of deep meaning.

When Daisy saw the queen's smile, the pupils in her eyes shrank slightly, and she felt bad.

She couldn't help but wonder if the Queen also had a liking for Martha, a woman of unknown origin.

Daisy clenched her fists tightly, feeling that Martha's presence was already affecting her status.

Meanwhile, on the dance floor, Martha was forced to dance with King Ducasse and kept furrowing her brows without relaxing.

She realized that this man was doing it on purpose; several times she wanted to leave but he always pulled her back onto the dance floor by holding onto her waist.

The man had a slight smile on his lips all along and his gaze towards her was gentle.

Whenever she tried to leave, he would always step forward faster than she could and lead her in another direction.

After a while, the smile on the corner of King Ducasse's mouth deepened unconsciously, and he said with a smile, "Our dance is simple; just follow your heart and have fun." Martha maintained her sanity, calmly looked at the man standing in front of her, and explained indifferently.

"Your Majesty, I came to the palace banquet just because..."

Before she could finish speaking, King Ducasse interrupted her, took a step forward, and stared at the woman in front of him.

His nose was very straight, his long eyelashes fluttered slightly, and his cheeks softened a bit under the light.

"My queen will be the daughter of the Lucas family. I think fate has bound us."

Martha looked at the man in front of her in shock, her eyes were full of astonishment.

After she came back to her senses, she retorted subconsciously, "The daughter of the Lucas family is not only me, but also others."

The corners of King Ducasse's mouth were slightly raised, and his smile was even more wicked.

"But in my eyes, I only see you."
