"Haha..."
The New World Emperor laughed as he looked at Sawyer who was kneeling on the ground and nodded in approval, "Okay, quickly get up."
"Father!"
However, no one thought that at this moment Yvette would step forward with an anxious expression on her face. "I... I won't get married!"
Yvette bit her lip and glanced at Sawyer before stomping her feet and said, "I'm not familiar with Sawyer at all. It will be too arbitrary for you to betroth me to him! I don’t like him at all. Why should I marry him?"
The whole hall was silent!
All the civil and military officials originally were warmly congratulating the Yates family. However, they were looking at each other with complicated expressions at that moment.
Eason and his son were also exchanging looks!
Everyone knew that Princess Yvette was the Emperor's favorite child, but who would have thought that Princess Yvette would dare violate the imperial edict in public!
The atmosphere in the hall was quite heavy.
"Boom!"
The New World Emperor was angry and suddenly slammed on the Dragon Throne before snapping at Yvette, "How dare you! Do I need your consent to betroth you to Sawyer? I've already made my decision!”
In all honesty, the New World Emperor loved Yvette dearly since she was a child.
However, it was not the excessive spoiling kind of love!
He was the almighty Emperor! Who would dare violate his edict? However, his precious daughter openly violated the imperial edict in the presence of several hundred civil and military officials. The New World Emperor would of course be furious!
Yvette anxiously stomped. "I said I’m not getting married... Not getting married...”
"Mother!"
Yvette quickly walked in and shouted in a sad tone.
The Empress smiled faintly upon looking at Princess Yvette. "What's the matter?"
The Empress waved her hand while saying that, beckoning the court ladies beside her to retreat.
Yvette hugged the Empress's arm with an aggrieved face and told the Empress what happened.
"Mother, I don't want to marry Sawyer." Yvette pleaded at the end, "Mother... can you persuade Father to recall the imperial edict, alright...?"
Sigh...
The Empress sighed with her love-filled compassionate eyes. "Stupid daughter, don't you know what your father said is an imperial edict? You’ve been betrothed to Sawyer in front of more than a hundred civil and military officials. How can he take it back? He will put His Majesty to shame if he did that. How could he maintain his majestic posture in the future?"
