Everyone stared between the Queen and the Princess in confusion.
Even Henry seemed surprised by her mother's request, since she hadn't mentioned anything about marriage during their conversation.
Vicky's reaction, on the other hand, surprised Elizabeth as well. She seemed quite eager to start the marriage preparations immediately, even though only a minute passed since Elizabeth made the proposition.
She kept on blabbering to Cass about her ideas for the wedding, not caring that her Aunt still tried to process everything.
"Wait! Wait, Princess Victoria! Don't you have anything against marrying so young? Don't you want time to consider the offer? Why did you accept without hesitation?"
Elizabeth desperately tried gaining more information about why Vicky seemed so eager. The girl had no hesitation when it came to accepting the forced marriage.
Her words brought confusion to Vicky. She stared down at Elizabeth like she was dumb.
