The Hidden Extra: The Lazy Prince Refuses to Ascend The Throne Chapter 632 Alina's Birthday Party
Two days later…
The royal palace was filled with beautiful decorations. Tonight was Alina's birthday celebration.
All the young nobles from across the kingdom had been invited by the palace to attend.
Since the invitation ca directly from the palace, no one dared to refuse. Lavish horse-drawn carriages arrived one after another.
The young nobles, both n and won, stepped out of their carriages with stunning appearances.
Just then, Aldrian, dressed in a white robe with blue patterns, arrived at Seira's room and knocked on the door.
"Seira, it's , Aldrian. Can I co in?"
He waited patiently. To his surprise, there was no answer at all, which left him confused.
He knocked again and called out, "Seira, are you in there?"
Suddenly, a lazy voice ca from inside.
"Can you be patient? I'm getting ready."
Aldrian breathed a sigh of relief and quickly said, "Sorry, I thought you weren't inside."
He rubbed his chest with a wide smile. Tonight was a decisive mont that would mark the beginning of everyone acknowledging his engagent to Seira.
So, he didn't want to let it slip by.
A few minutes later, the door opened, and Seira stepped out, looking stunning.
She was wearing a light pink strapless gown, revealing her upper chest and a hint of her cleavage.
The skirt was long enough to touch the floor. Her pink hair was styled in a half-up, half-down look, making her appear graceful and elegant.
A necklace hung around her neck, its pendant shaped like a blue teardrop that shimred under the palace hallway lights.
Her eyelashes were long and curled, and her subtle makeup made her look natural and beautiful.
Aldrian's breath caught in his throat, and his heart pounded wildly.
"S-Seira?" he stamred. "You… you're truly beautiful!"
He had seen many beautiful won in this kingdom, but none could rival Seira in either face or figure.
Seira was like the embodint of a goddess of beauty.
Seira remained calm, as if the complint ant nothing to her. But she knew she couldn't ignore it, so she replied, "Thank you for the complint. Well then, let's go."
Aldrian nodded enthusiastically. Just as he was about to extend his left hand, Seira had already turned and walked away.
His hand hung awkwardly in the air. A flicker of anger rose within him, but he could only swallow his frustration.
Not long after the two of them left, Nolan's door slowly opened.
He stepped out, looking exceptionally handso. His black robe was accented with a red sash fastened at the neck.
His black hair, usually a bit ssy, was now combed back neatly, giving him a more elegant look.
A sun-shaped brooch was pinned to the right side of his chest, with a white crystal at its center.
If Nolan's usual handsoness was a 99, then right now he was a perfect 100.
Nolan glanced in the direction Aldrian and his sister had gone and gave a faint smile.
"Sothing interesting is about to happen. How will you handle this, Aldrian Lyren?"

"Hahaha! It's good to see you, Lucas. How are you?"
"I'm fine. How about you, buddy? I heard your family opened a new industrial zone."
"Yeah, we did. As it happens, rchants have been looking for new land, and we…"
The palace hall was filled with laughter and conversation among young nobles from across the kingdom.
Since there were no conflicts like a battle for the throne, most nobles were relatively friendly and avoided hostility.
They knew that only through cooperation and friendship could they benefit one another.
In any case, they were different from most nobles in other kingdoms and empires, where nobles typically had their own territories.
Although they also possessed territories, legally they still belonged to the Lyren royal family.
Therefore, they did not have the absolute freedom enjoyed by noble families outside their kingdom.
Just then, the lights in the hall slowly dimd, leaving only a few faintly glowing lamps.
Everyone realized that the party was about to begin.
The spotlights at the front lit up, revealing a middle-aged man with a gentle smile.
"Everyone, thank you for coming to the princess's birthday party. On behalf of the royal family, I welco you."
The young nobles clapped and cheered.
"Alright, then, let's welco the star of the show!"
The spotlight then shifted to the right, illuminating a young woman standing gracefully.
She was wearing a strapless blue gown, revealing her neck and a hint of her fair cleavage.
Her hair was styled in a braided crown, with a white tiara resting atop her head.
A beautiful smile graced her lips, instantly enchanting the young n present.
Alina was incredibly beautiful, especially when she smiled. Her dimples looked cute and charming.
She then stepped forward and spoke a few polite words to the guests.
Shortly after, the lights ca back on, and music began to play from the far end of the hall.
Everyone smiled and continued their conversations. However, since Alina was already present, the young nobles imdiately approached her.
"How are you, Your Highness? You look absolutely stunning in that gown. Did His Majesty the King prepare it for you?"
"Your Highness Alina, your tiara is also very beautiful. I'm so jealous of you."
"Your Highness…"
The won enthusiastically exchanged pleasantries with her, and Alina smiled as she answered their questions one by one.
anwhile, Nolan nonchalantly ate the food laid out on the table.
He had kept his promise to Alina to co, but he had never said he would join the others.
Aside from his higher status, he didn't know any of them.
There was no shared interest or connection, so Nolan saw no reason to get to know them.
"Hmm? I didn't expect this mooncake to be so delicious," he muttered.
He devoured it with gusto, finishing it in just two minutes.
Still hungry, Nolan continued searching for more food.
The palace chefs had prepared a wide variety of dishes, and Nolan was delighted to sample them all.
Moreover, these were traditional dishes from the Ancient Kingdom of Eron, and he was certain he wouldn't find such flavors in the empire.
However, just as Nolan was enjoying his al, a teasing voice ca from behind him.
"Handso, are you here all by yourself?"
