"I will take that as praise."
The maids nearby covered their mouths while smiling quietly, and even Elena's expression became slightly brighter.
The atmosphere felt unexpectedly relaxed.
After some casual conversation, Elena finally leaned slightly forward while speaking more seriously.
"So," she said gently.
"What kind of dress do you think would suit me?"
Ethan paused briefly and carefully observed her appearance.
Her posture.
Her temperament.
Her facial features.
Elena noticed his serious expression and blinked slightly before sitting straighter instinctively.
Ethan thought quietly for several moments before speaking.
"Your Highness has a very gentle aura," he said calmly.
"So heavy or overly luxurious styles would not suit you properly."
Elena listened quietly.
Ethan continued.
"You need something elegant but soft."
"Something graceful without appearing overly oppressive."
His eyes moved briefly toward the silver lotus lake nearby.
