The Medallion

Chapter 89 Gorgeous Beauty

'Who is he?' Rocky couldn't help wondering about that man's true identity. At the same time, his eyes fell on another figure. He was immediately fascinated by her beauty and great charm. Her delicate snow-white face for some reason gave her an arrogant look. She had an attractive nose, higher than that of a mixed-blood beauty. The nose was high up in the air, just as haughty as its owner's proud look at the moment. The woman had a royal temperament.

It was funny for Rocky never expected that the girl whom he stood admiring was none other than Shirley.

Moreover, the man standing next to Shirley was her grandfather, Bryant. All rights © NôvelDrama.Org.

Shirley noticed Rocky's admiring gaze at her. She didn't like to wear women's clothes as she felt very uncomfortable in them. With great reluctance she had worn it. But now when she was being stared at, by eyes full of desire, she was annoyed and could no longer bear it.

Shirley immediately glared at Rocky with her beautiful eyes. Of course, she was not aware that the man gazing at her was the most hated prince, the useless waste, who was worthless in her eyes.

Neither of them recognized each other.

Glared by Shirley, Rocky immediately turned away his eyes. He pretended as if he was watching Bryant and Shirley enter the Grand Holy Hall surrounded by a group of guards. Yet, all the time, he kept wondering about the true identity of that gorgeous beauty. When they had moved ahead, he quietly followed them. He stayed close and continued to walk towards the Grand Holly Hall.

In the Grand Holy Hall, the emperor of the Holy Dragon Empire was still sitting on his dragon throne, while Lena was sitting on the lower left side. Priest Dean, Alston, several other princes as well as all the ministers of the Holy Dragon Empire had also gathered in the hall.

When Bryant and Shirley stepped into the hall, everyone immediately looked at them. They first looked at Bryant and the next instant their eyes fell on Shirley who was beside him. Evidently, everyone was attracted by her stunning beauty. Several princes became extremely excited. They began to fantasize about romantic love affairs with her.

All the people, including the emperor of the Holy Dragon Empire, wore a surprised look. They couldn't help wondering whose daughter she was. 'Why did she come with Bryant?' they thought to themselves.

Obviously, almost everyone in the hall did not realize that the gorgeous beauty was none other than Shirley. Shirley, who was dressed in feminine clothes, had completely changed herself into another person.

The only person who showed great calm was Lena. Since she was also a woman, she recognized Shirley's true identity at a glance. Of course, she also didn't expect that Shirley would change so much after she was dressed in women's clothing.

"Your Majesty, it is my great honor to meet you. I wish you happiness and health forever!" After walking towards the dragon throne, Bryant immediately made an obeisance to the emperor by cupping one hand in the other before his chest. Although his tone was very respectful, he still looked very proud.

"Your Majesty, it is also my great honor to meet you. May you always be happy and healthy." Shirley bowed to the emperor with great respect.

Upon hearing the voice as Shirley spoke, the whole hall immediately echoed with the voices of great surprise.

"Shirley?" "Is that Shirley?"

"Is it even possible? Is she truly Shirley? I remember, the real Shirley is a tomboy! But the woman standing in front of us is clearly a gorgeous beauty."

"Is it possible that she is Shirley's younger sister or elder sister?"

Everyone's facial expression was very strange, for they were unwilling to accept the truth that the beauty before them was indeed Shirley.

"You don't need to guess her true identity. She is indeed my granddaughter, Shirley." Bryant said in a calm voice, unable to conceal his pride. He was quite confident about his granddaughter's beauty.

"I can't believe that Miss Shirley is such a gorgeous beauty. It really surprises me," the emperor said calmly with a smile.

"Your majesty, you are being too kind to me. I really don't think I deserve your praise," Shirley said modestly.

"Why hasn't Basil come yet?" Upon seeing that everyone who should have been present had arrived, the emperor realized that Basil was still missing.

"Here I am!" The moment the emperor finished speaking, a response suddenly sounded from the gate of the Grand Holy Hall. Everyone saw a figure with an impressive appearance coming in. Although that man was still very young, he looked supercilious, quite composed and confident, which made everyone see him in a totally different way.

It was Rocky who came into the hall after announcing his arrival.

However, some people's faces had strange expressions as soon as they saw Rocky coming in.

Several princes including Alston immediately showed disgust and jealousy. Till now they thought that the emperor had awarded a tomboy to Rocky, which made them gloat over his misfortune. They never expected that the tomboy would suddenly become a beautiful and charming woman. Therefore, they

were really upset that Rocky would marry such a gorgeous beauty. They believed he was unworthy of her.

On seeing Rocky, Alston's face became as cold as ice. Hatred was evident, as he stared at Rocky with great hostility.

In all of this, it was Shirley who had the most unprecedented reaction.

"He... He is Basil!" Shirley stared at Rocky who was entering the hall. She immediately recognized him as the guy who stared at her with lascivious eyes some time ago. Taken aback, she cried with surprise on seeing Rocky.

It was because Rocky had changed so much. He looked different compared to his appearance two months ago. All of it was completely beyond her imagination. Two months ago, he was a sick and useless prince. Now, the man who stood in front of her was totally another person. It was no wonder that she did not recognize him at first glance.

"Hey beautiful! Are you surprised that I am Basil? By the way, you are..." Rocky found it strange that Shirley had such a weird reaction, so he walked beside her and asked the reason of it.

"Basil, why don't you greet General Bryant?" The emperor immediately spoke to him.

"General Bryant? Surely it doesn't mean that..." Rocky was greatly surprised. He immediately looked at Bryant who stood beside Shirley. No wonder he felt such a strong spiritual power around him. He was surprised that the man in front of him was General Bryant, the most powerful royal spirit manipulator in the Holy Dragon Empire.

"General Bryant, it's my great honor to meet you. I am Basil Long." Rocky made an obeisance to General Bryant by cupping one hand in the other before his chest. At the same time, he thought to

himself, 'This beautiful woman came with Bryant, which means that she also belongs to the Ximen Clan!' However, he wondered why he could not find Shirley, his prospective fiancee. Why didn't she show up?

"As the saying goes, if you haven't seen someone for a long time, you should look at him with new eyes when you two have a reunion. It's surprising that Prince Basil has become such a fine-looking person as well as a royal spirit manipulator at the Earthly Stage." If he hadn't seen with his own eyes, Bryant would never have believed that the rumor about Basil was indeed true. Bryant had seen him earlier a few times. He had the impression that Basil was as weak as a useless prince. Now, however, the man in front of him was completely different. It was beyond his expectation that those changes took place within two months only.

"I cannot believe it! He is the one whom all regarded as a usele... Basil!" It was quite difficult for Shirley to accept the truth.

"Miss Shirley, I remember that you used to wear men's clothing, but now you are wearing women's clothing. Since you have changed a lot, why don't you believe that Basil too has become a totally new person!" Lena stared at Shirley with her beautiful eyes.

"Miss Shirley? Are you really Shirley Ximen?" Upon hearing Lena's words, Rocky carefully looked at Shirley. He looked surprised. His eyes moved up and down, from head to toe. He had really not been able to recognize her at first glance. How come? Shirley had unexpectedly changed from a tomboy to a gorgeous beauty.

"Hmm!" Shirley glared at Rocky with great pride.

"It's really strange, I remember, last time you used to look neither like a woman nor a man. I suppose that you suddenly..." Rocky immediately noticed Shirley's surprised expressions, wondering what had happened to her.
