Chapter 3
I glance at Butler Warren when I felt that he keeps on glancing at me while talking with someone on the phone.I pouted and stared at the door.I must be imagining! He can't be that annoying person!I was standing here for like ten minutes already! And I could still not find the courage to enter!'Come on, Aonaran! It's not like your the one at fault to feel that way! There's nothing to be scared of!'I shook my head and nodded. I inhaled heavily and exhaled heavily before I decided to open the door."Seed-"I was stopped when my eyes instantly landed on the man sitting on the sofa while flipping the magazines. His gaze met mine that made me stop talking.I loudly slammed the door again and this time, I never think of opening it. I'd rather die than open that damn door and embarrassed myself!The way he looks at me brings back all the pain he has caused me. His mere presence annoys me to the bone.I shook my head when memories start to flow inside my mind. It was like a poison that slowly crawled every part of my body."Let's go!" I said to Butler Warren, who is panicking as I got closer. He quickly ended the call as he saw me. I look at him weirdly but he just smiled awkwardly.But that's not the problem right now! I need to get out of here, ASAP! But I need to maintain my image so I still manage to walk gracefully even though I want to run fast just to get out of this hospital.I don't know how he met seedless girl but today is an unfortunate day to meet him.This is crazy! It is been years yet he still has effects on me! This is not acceptable at all!I shook my head and sighed. I've been receiving a lot of bad news for a day!What kind of gracious luck is this?It seems like lady luck despised me!I breathe out of relief as soon as I seat down in our car. The driver glanced at me through the rearview mirror."What's the matter, young lady?" He asked me respectfully."Met some bad luck.""Are you ok?" His voice is full of concern as he looks at me from the rearview mirror."Yes. I can handle it." I sneered.Handle it? Really Aonaran? Didn't you just embarrass yourself a while ago?It's just him!Just him, for God's sake Aonaran!He is just a mere businessman while you are a princess! Yet you embarrassed yourself for someone who is lower than you!I sighed and ruffled my hair in frustration.How could I be bothered by that mere short meeting of us? We just basically had eye-to-eye contact yet I was acting this way?Unforgivable!I'll punish myself later."Let's go."-AT THE HOSPITALA man in a business suit is seating casually as he drank from his coffee. Anyone can notice how bright his mood is. His red, soft lips are in a cupid curve. His hazelnut-colored eyes somehow shows a different emotion, it was cold and distant. He scrunches his pointed nose when he notices someone is staring at him."What? She looks stupid!" He defends himself from her accusing gazes."You just scared my visitor, Mr." She rolled her eyes at the man and pouted."She must have brought a lot of food!" She complained and touched her tummy.And as an agreement with her body, it growled loudly that made the man laugh."What's so funny? If it wasn't for your scary face I must be eating all the delicious food she brought!" She scolded the man harshly but it seems like he does not care at all as he is still leisurely drinking his coffee."Don't worry, I called my secretary to buy food.""Hmp! That's much better!" He smiled when he saw the little girl calm down.He had just come back from abroad and was planning to visit his 'old friend' but he received the news that the little girl is sick.He was shocked when his 'old friend' suddenly barged in in the room when they were talking about some random things.In that short meeting, he instantly notices the changes in his old friend.Before she would make a ruckus if someone force her to be girly and wear dresses but now it seems like it is a normal thing for her.He could still remember her first punch on his face just because of a mere word.Tomboy. A lesbian.He can't help it but smiled when it crossed in his mind how her beautiful blue eyes widened in shock. Her fat fluffy cheeks turned into tomatoes in embarrassment as her red seductive lips were wide open.She always has that look when he teases her...But as always, she looks cute...He bit his lower lip thinking about it.I wish I pictured it!But he came back into his senses when he heard a familiar sound.'Click!''Click!'"What are you doing?" He asked the little girl."Taking an evidence of how you were having fun from her embarrassment." She casually said like it's nothing at all."About that, how did you know each other?""Oh? Aonaran? She's helping the kids at the orphanage." Her? Helping?It seems like she changed a lot!He was still shocked when she continued."She personally brought foods, clothes, and toys for us. I would say she's pretty generous for always giving us that it won't anymore in the house." He could not help but chuckle.Well, that's how she is.Her words always contradict what she really feels. She's harsh and arrogant in the eyes of others but those who know her knew what she really is.He shook his head and bit his lower lip. Even though the little girl talks with sarcasm he could see that she is grateful to her."Anyway, Brother why are you back? Didn't you say you're staying there for good?" He just smiled and shook his head."Didn't you miss me?"The little girl just rolled her eyes and ignored him as she opened the TV and watch cartoons.Actually, he came back because he heard the news.It's a little too early but he needed to come back before he totally lost his old friend.Ah, this would be hard...-Aonaran's POVI'm frowning really hard as our group chat keeps on ringing. Chat after a chat.I've tried to leave the group chat many times but minutes later I would just find myself hearing my phone keep vibrating again and again.Justmeyoume: As the class president, I decided to have our reunion this week! I miss you guys! Let's do some catch-up in our life. See you at the Butterfly cafe at 10 in the morning!Blakeyboy: Wow! A reunion! @Sabogako look!Sabogako: That's great! See you around!The group chat has gone wilder when the two-member of campus feeling F4 chatted.I rolled my eyes when I saw my phone won't stop vibrating. I won't be shocked when it will suddenly lag and got broken.I sighed heavily and decided to turn it off.I stood up from my bed and changed clothes.I was done when Butler Warren knocked on my door. "Yes?""Young Miss, the Young Master is back. He wants to eat dinner with you." I look at my wall clock and sighed."Ok."The door opened so I step out of my room and walk with Butler Warren."Why is father back so early?" Father rarely comeback early unless he wants to talk about something important.No, he rarely comes here."I heard he's announcing something." I frowned when I remember something.Could it be about my fiance? Is he here?I stop from walking and look at Butler Warren intently. "My fiance is here?" He avoided my gaze and gulped harshly."Young Miss, please don't make things hard for me." He whispered as he wipes the beads of sweat that is forming on his forehead.I look down the stairs and I knew it is my end when I saw a middle-aged woman quietly observing my every move. I could not help it and gulped harshly and look away."Butler Warren, you don't mind walking slowly, right?" I nervously ask him and hold his arm tightly.I gulped again as I could feel her cold and strict eyes, watching me and Butler Warren walk down. I nervously removed my hands from him before smiling awkwardly at her. She just squinted her eyes and nodded her head, signaling us to walk faster but we pretend we don't get it.I secretly scanned myself again making sure I dressed rightly.I'm glad I didn't wear jeans today.My hands went back on Butler Warren's arms and grip tightly on it when we walked past her. I gulped again and again when I felt her eyes is still following us.I breathe heavily when she looks away. I look at Butler Warren who I think already froze from the walk we made.Who would not?!But then before I could really breathe in relief another person appeared in my sight that totally shook me!Chapter 4"W-what are you doing here?" I bit my lower lip when I stuttered, I could feel my cheeks turn hot from embarrassment as I look at him suspiciously.I could not help but question him!I heard someone clear her throat loudly from the back which made me stop the urge to ask him again but my eyes never left him.I saw him smirking sexily and scrunching his nose while looking at me playfully before answering my question."Applying." He simply said."Applying?" "Yes." He then again replied like it was nothing while I'm starting to go crazy here. I squinted my eyes and deliberately showed him my middle finger, fast.Butler Warren notice it and simply chuckled before he leaned down a bit and whispered "He seems to be applying to be your bodyguard." My brows furrowed. "But he is a freaking businessman! He is rich! There's no need to work as a bodyguard!" I whispered back. He just shook his head and went back to his original position.That's right. The talk-of-town businessman see
Chapter 5"Who is it?" I asked but no one replied back.Did someone broke the system in our mansion? How could the guards did not notice any strange person? It is heavily guarded!My brother made sure that he bought the best security in the whole world for me! All the security items here a very high tech!"Butler Warren?" I asked but no one answered but instead, it knocked on my door again.Ok, that's it! I stood up and grab my bat under my bed. I always have thing like this hidden in my room for protection. My room have a lots of secrets.I slowly walk towards the door with the bat in my hand, ready to swing it to whoever it is.I'm gripping the bat tightly as I stared at the door, walking slowly. I've been practicing fencing with my brother. I'm expert on it! I don't have to worry that I can't defend myself. It will be too shameful to the royal family and my ancestors! My family is known for being good at martial arts. Basically, we don't really need bodyguards but it was on the r
"I'll only serve, Aonaran." I look at him, amused. But when he saw me looking at him, he suddenly smirk smugly. That's when I knew that he's not serious at all! This guy can never be trusted! I snorted and smirk at him. "Let's see how long you'll last." My brother clap in happiness and he loot at Domenicus full of arrogance. "Sure." Me and my brother talk some things while Domenicus is just standing at the corner, guarding the door. It's been a while since he came home so we really have a lot to catch up. But because he is tired I told him to talk with me tomorrow and rest for now.So, the night ended just like that and when I woke up, I called Butler Warren to help me get in the bathroom and told him to get Riana to help me get dressed. "Young Miss." Riana greeted me as soon as she entered my wardrobe. I nodded."I heard what happened last night. I hope you'd be more careful in the future." I just sat there in my bathrobe while looking at her picking clothes I should wear.Sh
My feet healed after three days. In those three days, I stayed inside my room and never get out. I only instructed Butler Warren to bring foods to the children and that's it. The reunion was also moved today. Luckily, I'm healed so I could go. I've think very hard in those three days. Maybe I was wrong. Maybe father agreed that they should be my bodyguard so I could take my revenge. Or it just my wishful thinking.But it doesn't matter, I'll make them realize how stupid their decisions is. I'll make them regret entering my life again.I've never really thought of taking a revenge but since they find me there self then I don't have a reason not to. They came here willingly that made me feel insulted. They should feel guilty to face me or even get near me but they all acted like its me who wronged them. They shamelessly entered our house without a remorse. "Young Miss, the car is ready." I nodded stood up from my bed and wear my beanie to hide my butterfly barretteLuckily, Old Ria
"Wait." I stop James and the latter look at me, confused. "Well,I just want to give them a surprise. Mind hiding for a minute?" They look at me, more confused but I just smiled. Domenicus nodded and hide behind the wall besides the door. The other four followed. "Do your best!" James said excitement can be seen in his entire face. His hands were up the air, silently cheering for me. Even the three boys followed him and raised their hands but Domenicus just stared at me coldly as if he doesn't care at all. I just smirk at them and never glance at Domenicus again. I step closer from the door, I sighed heavily to calm down and when I did I grab my beanie revealing my long wavy hair and my butterfly barrette. I heard them gasped but I ignored them and opened the door gracefully. I saw people wearing their best dresses, elegantly and arrogant. Men in their tuxedos and look likes a decent person but it was true that no matter how decent you dress if your attitude is stinky, it won't
"So? How does it feel living with your enemies?" She asked that made me frown. "Hell." She chuckled and gulped her wine again and grab another glass. I shook my head as I stare at her. I'm not done drinking my first glass yet but there she is, drunk at least six glasses of wine already! "Must be frustrating to see them everyday." She said with sympathy but her eyes says different. She's laughing at me!This woman!"Guess how many times we fight in one day?" "Every time you see each other?" She answered, unsure. "Yeah! Just seeing his face makes my blood boil! Do you know that since father is busy again, he watch my every move! At the dining, he'll force me to eat veggies! The nerve!" My face grimace remembering the taste of broccoli. I gulped my wine."He is like second Riana! Even Butler Ryu is enjoying my suffering!" She chuckled again and offered me another glass of wine."You let him control you? Girl, shouldn't you learn from your mistake before?" She reminded me and glance
"We didn't see anything!" They all said in unison while kneeling and bowing their heads so low, did not dare to look at me in the eyes at all."Who told you to come without any permission?" They all shook their heads.I squinted my eyes. "Hmm?" I rudely asks and top my slippers on the floor. They look at me then their head slowly turned to Domenicus who is standing besides them proudly. I raised my eyebrow and went in front of him. "The Mr. Top one don't know the rules anymore?" He just looked at me coldly and sneered.I was immediately got annoyed at his reaction but I did not show it. "It's our duty to protect you. Please, refrain from shouting in the future." I frowned at what he said. I feel like he embarrassed me and he trampled my ego. Why does when it comes to this man I easily lost control of my feelings? "Should I banged your head in the door too and asked you not to shout?" He did not say anything and just keep staring at the books on my bookshelves. "Well, I'm sorry
I'm alone seating in the sofa that Syl chooses, drinking my third glass of margarita. Many tried to approach me but stop in the midway after seeing how intimidating I look. I can't blame them, after what happened years ago I never want to get near any man. It's not like I'm disgusted or something, it was like a defense mechanism that whenever a man try to approach me, my mind instantly remind my eyes to look at them fiercely and not let them approach me. Well, it gave me a lot of benefit so I never tried to changed it nor fix it. Syl is frowning as she approached me. She just came from the dance floor and must be tires for dancing in thirty minutes. "How many did you reject tonight?! Geez, you woman are really hardheaded!" I just raised my eyebrow at her and laugh.She glared at me again and smacked my head hard that made me frown but laughed at the end. She looks pretty drunk.She keeps on swaying while walking towards me. Her hair is messy and her lipstick is smudged. Probably
