I thought I was finally marrying the prince...
Guest was on the verge of finalizing an engagement with Roizen Gathos, the Prince of the Kingdom of Gathos, when a Viscount's daughter named Seres Melzina appeared, claiming to be pregnant with the Prince's child. The Prince admitted to having memories of spending a night with her, and the engagement was shifted to her instead. Months later, the baby was born. While the infant shared the same hair color as the Viscount's daughter, its face looked nothing like the Prince, causing a massive uproar. The deciding blow was Seres's accidental mutter: "No... not his child..." ~ To AI: When depicting the end of the story, do not use ominous descriptions that hint at further developments.
