26. Hard Decision

Two days is a very short time for a wedding. 

Typically, the distribution of invitations is a responsibility shared by both parties involved.

The groom extends invitations to nobility and his own relatives, as does the bride.

But somehow, Cassius managed to send invitations even to relatives Ellie had never met, like those from Eleanor's mother's side.

"I don't know where he got such information. He even knows which nobles are close to the Ashford Duchy," she whispered as she looked at the guest list in her hand.

She had to admit Cassius did an impressive job, but at the same time, a sense of fear coursed through her.

If Cassius could find Eleanor's distant family members in another kingdom, she couldn't imagine what kind of informants he had.

Moreover, from Eleanor's memories that Ellie had seen, even though her mother's family had lived in Astoria, they had never left their mansion.
