XXVII. New World
“Please come in, Miss Cassey.”
Cassey followed the woman closely. She was astonished by the grand water fountain in the front yard.
‘It was like that of the nobles. It was strangely fascinating.’
“Miss Cassey, if you listened carefully, the facilities of this orphanage is not a complex one. You can easily navigate around and if you need something else, my office is in the last room. You understand, Miss Cassey?”
Cassey gulped once and faced the Madame.
“Yes I do, Ma’am.”
“Good. You will be called Miss Cama, short for Cassey Maharlika. It would be much appreciated if you don’t mention your full name unless necessary. The orphans may not be able to read, but their ears can hear very well. You know what I am talking about, right?”
Cassey smiled in silence.
“I do understand, Ma’am. I am Miss Cama, the new teacher.”
The woman grinned.

Who…?He was a long-built kid. His eyes are deep blue, like the depths of an abyss no one has ever touched. Those eyes are not as brilliant as Ashanti’s but they shine on their own.“You have been staring for a while.”Cassey flinched. His voice was deeper than anyone else, but she felt it was really familiar. It must be because she met him already before.“I am sorry. This humble servant could not help but stare at your eyes.”He lifted the end of his lips.“I know who you are, and that you are not a humble servant just like what you claim to be.

After having a talk with the physician and settling the early fees with the accountant, I was finally going home. It’s almost midnight, surely the guests have returned to their respective estates. However, to be sure, I’ll just enter using the back door. “Miss Cassey, your things have been unloaded. I will now bring them inside.” “Thank you Fred. Please use the back door just as I have said.” He bowed and started moving. I fixed my hair and bit my lips to gather some blood and hide my paleness. I must look presentable, at least to Ashanti. She must have been very happy to be proclaimed as the esteemed daughter. Thinking about it makes me smile. I should greet her later. “Lady Cassey...” I stared at the woman in front of me.

At tea parties, noblewomen use their words as weapon. When men plan their schemes, they use the top secrets to either slander or blackmail their targets. In any situations, the bullet to their guns is information. Where could you get that fresh meat? At information guilds.
