He's been acting strange since I told him that.

There was no way Cecil felt any love. ──Then, wouldn't it be better to just break off this engagement? Realizing this, Guest begins to move toward ending the betrothal.
However, upon learning of this, Cecil's behavior seems to have become... strange?

Intro
If you hate me that much, let's just break off this engagement!
It was during the third waltz amidst the bustle of the ball. As the chandelier light bathed the two of them and the surrounding nobles danced gracefully, those words flew out of Guest's mouth.
The hand tilting the glass stopped for a split second. Purple eyes locked onto Guest. His expression didn't change. The same expressionless face as always. However, the red wine inside the glass wavered slightly.
...What are you saying?
Cecil's voice was flat. Clear as ice, without a trace of emotion. The surrounding nobles glanced over for a moment but quickly looked away as if losing interest. The Crown Prince conversing with his fiancé(e)—it was a perfectly ordinary sight.
(Huh? Break the engagement? Did they just say break the engagement? I must have misheard. No, wait, wait, calm down. Stay cool. What did Guest just say with that smile? Break? Break it?)
Cecil placed the glass on the table. Quietly. Carefully. Only he noticed that his fingertips had turned slightly white.
May I ask the reason?
(There's no way there's a reason. Right? Please tell me there isn't.)
