Kissing The Wind Chapter 50
The day that she officially entered the Duke's household as an adopted daughter, there was no celebration at all. It was only a dinner and only she and the Duke were present. Lady Geneva and Catarina had gone outside to eat. Not that Sydnee mind it, but she was uncomfortable when the maids standing at the side kept on staring at her. The butler standing behind the Duke cleared his throat. "Congratulations to you, my Lady. You are a Mondragon and no one should look down on you."Sydnee raised her head and stared at the butler. He was looking at the floor and slightly bowing his head on her. Sydnee gulped. She did not expect the butler to show his respect on her, specially when he threatened her when they went to the ruins. "Uh..." she sighed quietly. Suddenly, the Duke put his utensils down and gestured to the butler. One minute and there was no one around the dining room except for her, the Duke , and the butler. The Duke looked at her and spoke, "When they look down on you, they a

Nobody listened to her and she was not surprised. She let them threw insults to her and waited until the hype died down. It did not took too long. Just as she opened her mouth to speak, someone cleared their throat. "What do you think you're all doing, class?" The classroom went silent. Sydnee turned around to see the adviser standing by the entrance. She was one of the people who Sydnee respected in the school. She was considerate and never looked down on scholars in the academy. The teacher looked at her and smiled apologetically, "Do you want to take a shower first?"She did not want to make things difficult for her adviser so she nodded. Just as she exited the classroom, she looked over her shoulder and smiled coldly at her classmates. "I'll be back," she said and followed the adviser towards the gymn. She did not know that when she left, the atmosphere inside the classroom plunged into coldness. Rogie was no longer studying in the academy, and the princess Isa was absent. They

"What? You will not take responsibility for what you did?" Catarina scoffed. "Who else is the cheap sister of mine who stared longingly at my blue sapphire necklace last night?"Sydnee's brow raised at what Catarina said. She just wanted to grab snacks in the kitchen, but Catarina blocked her and accused her of stealing a blue sapphire necklace that the second prince gave to the girl. "I don't know what you are talking about," she flatly denied and walked pass by her. She just took a step forward when her hair was grabbed from behind. "H-Hey, let go!" "You deny it, huh? Thief! Give me back my necklace!"Sydnee's scalp went numb from Catarina's tugging. She pushed the girl away, but she yelped when Catarina held her hair tightly, not letting it go even for a second. A mouthful of curse came out from her mouth and she held Catarina's hands. Then, she twist the girl's wrist. Catarina yelped and jumped away from her. Sydnee huffed and arranged her hair. She had started her swordmanship

Sydnee narrowed her eyes on Selena. The girl was standing not far away from her. She could not help but to be vigilant around her. There was something amiss with how Selena always disregard her title as Young Miss of Obando. "I want them to stop this bullying habit," she said and looked away. Selena chuckled. "Sure you are, but it's no use. These fellas would not stop their habit because they were taught to treat people with low status as trash. You're just wasting your time, Young Miss."Sydnee drew a breathe and looked down on the girl who was still sitting on the ground. She snorted and walked away. She understood what Selena was trying to say, but at least, she saved someone from humiliation in that day. Not like what she experienced when she was still of low status, when no one from the group of noble was kind enough to interfere with the bullying. Now that she was given the chance to stand above the bullies, of course, she would do something about the bullying. She could not

When Sydnee arrived home, a huge crowd of commoners was gathering outside the huge mansion gate. The driver slowed down the car. Not long after, the crowd was dispersed by the head maid servant of the house. Then the car entered the gate that was opened up for them. "What happened?" Sydnee asked the head maid servant when she hopped off the car. The maid lowered her head in greeting and answered, "They just want to see the second prince, Young Miss."Sydnee raised her brow and looked at the commoners outside of the gate. There were still some of them lingering around the corner, but majority was dispered already so she was not worried. Then she looked at the huge mansion. It was then that she saw how lively it was. She smirked. So the second prince visited Catarina again? Was it an ordinary visit or a way to intimidate her? Nonetheless, Sydnee walked inside the mansion. What greeted her was the smiling second prince and Catarina. The second prince resembled the King a lot. It was

"Oh. I never thought that royals would spare time to visit a noble's house in a regular day," Selena said, while munching her lunch. Sydnee told Selena about the second prince's prejudice against her and his frequent visit in the duke's mansion. She had already saw Selena as one of her friends beside Isa. ALthough the girl's background was suspicious, but she knew that Selena would not do anything bad for her. She could feel the sincerity of the girl so she was comfortable telling the girl about the duke's mansion. "I don't know what the prince saw in Catarina, though I don't really care." Sydnee sighed. "But Catarina kept on pestering me and accusing me of being a thief when I don't know about the things the prince gave her."Selena's ears perked up upon hearing Sydnee's words. She cleared her throat and simply reached for her drink. "And then the prince believe what your sister was spouting?"Sydnee smiled helplessly. "What else could I complain? Catarina was good in acting as a

"You said that Rogie and his twin brother Renald were sons of the King?" Sydnee clarified. Her eyes widened in surprise upon learning the secret of Rogie's identity. Selena nodded while she reached for a slice of apple. They were still inside the clinic and the nurse earlier had given them sliced apples to munch on. "Rogie and his twin brother was born of commoner mother, a servant of the king," Selena said while watching the funny expression of Sydnee. "Just like Isa," Sydnee muttered under her breathe. Seriously? How many illegitimate sons and daughters do the current king have? Selena laughed. "Hey, don't think too much. It was not a secret that royals do have illegitimate children but nobody would dare to openly discuss it unless they want to be beheaded.""Right," Sydnee chirped, but she also asked, "But such coincidence that I knew them both. And I forgot about them too."Selena shrugged her shoulders. "Maybe because your mother Diana and Rogie's biological mother were half-

Sydnee was standing together with her classmates who wore big smiles upon their lips. The day had come that they had completed highschool. She was nervous and ecstatic at the same time. The duke did not attend her graduation day but the butler by the duke's side was with her. He kept on reminding her that she should not be nervous, but the more he reminded her, the more nervous Sydnee was. "Alright, alright, I got it," Sydnee said and sighed. She waved her hand to let him known that it was her turn to receive the highschool diploma. She walked towards the stage. "Congratulations!" The director said to her and smiled. She received it with a smile and stood steadily on the stage to let the person below took a picture of her. Then she stepped down from the stage. "You're beaming too much. Please hide your smile or else I won't see a thing!" Selena joked when she was back to her seat. The girl was sitting beside her and was teasing her since earlier. Sydnee rolled her eyes. "Stop th
