Family bullshit.
I was taken aback when I heard Mister Handsome address the lady as his Aunt. I'm certain he only called her his aunt to keep me from suspecting anything about their relationship, and I'm not going to take it likely with the lady with brown hair if she also tries to cover up for Mister handsome. "Oh my goodness! Isn't her pet name 'Aunty'? What brought us together in the first place? Seriously, why did I meet you at the club where you are now determined to mock my life?" I asked Arthur before walking towards the door, because I don't have time for nonsense.Arthur is so daring that he referred to the young lady as his aunt just to get her to play along. Seriously, how can she be his aunt when the lady appears to be my age mate?I'm hurt, but after wiping away my tears, I realized Arthur doesn't deserve my tears.Arthur is a jerk, and I hope karma pays him back, and I don't mean my dog's karma. "Hello, little one. Why are you so envious?" The brown-haired lady inquired, prompting me to

The ambulance.
"Alright, Cornelia, here you go." While handing me a glass of water, the lady said and she had a thin smile on her lip. "Who do you claim to be?" I inquired, refusing to collect Astrid's water.I still don't believe the explanation that I have been hearing for quite some time now. "My name is Princess Astrid. You can also refer to me as a warrior. I'm skilled with killi... I mean swordsmanship." Astrid said with a smile.She had wanted to tell Cornelia that she is capable of killing those who attempt to attack the kingdom in which she lives, but she quickly restrained herself because she doesn't want to scare her.On the other hand, my mouth hung open, but no words came out. I'm completely speechless.Arthur became concerned for a few seconds because he thought Cornelia would pass out, or perhaps flies are going to rrsy inside her mouth, but the next thing Cornelia did surprised him.I took Astrid's glass of water before drinking the entire contents.I extended my hands to Astrid afte

She's stunning.
I blushed immediately after Arthur's statement, but who would have guessed that something unexpected was about to happen to both Arthur and me?The door to Arthur Mansion was suddenly opened, and a lovely lady entered. She walks gracefully and with a bright smile on her face.The lady has golden long hair and a smile as bright as the full moon at midnight.The lady is currently dressed in a dark blue dinner gown with a v neck that exposes a portion of her chest.Its hands are placed above each shoulder, and the gown hugs her chest all the way down to her waist. Below the waist was a large free material that is very long and kisses the ground.The material is attached to the bodice of the gown. Because the gown obscures her feet, I can't tell what kind of shoe the young lady is currently putting on.Her gown is lovely, and I believe she is of a higher social standing. "Mom," Arthur says, slightly arching his brows as he looks at his mother.He's surprised to see his mother, and I'm su

He stole my heart.
I had no idea Arthur had told his family about me. This moment made me realize that he had loved me from the beginning, and it's easier to call it love at first sight.I was overjoyed that he remembered me after stealing my jewellery for the past five years.When I woke up five years ago to find an empty room and all of my jewellery missing, I immediately assumed that I had given my virginity to a thief, and it turns out that I was correct.Arthur stole my jewellery five years ago, and now that he's back in my life, he's stolen my heart in a very short time.I may appear selfish, but for once, all I want is to steal something nice from Arthur. I want to take his surname and don't mind being known as Cornelia Alanson.I was still smiling and thinking about how fortunate I was to have met Arthur when I heard his mother mention something about cancer.I had been lost in thought, but when I heard her say the word "Cancer," I slowly shifted my gaze to her. "Mom, do you have cancer?" I ques

It's an honor.
Arthur and I were still talking while his aunt looked on from a distance. She has a happy expression on her face, and I can tell she is rooting for both Arthur and me."I apologize for taking so long." Arthur's mother apologizes as she moves closer to us.She went to the guest restroom a while ago and took her time, but I didn't notice because Arthur and I were both busy keeping each other company while she was gone. "You don't have to apologize, Mom." Arthur told his mother.She takes a bond from her handbags and ties her hair into a neat ponytail, making her appear younger and likewise adorable. Mrs. Alanson smiles as she grabs my wrist and pulls me towards the kitchen. "Because it's almost nighttime, why don't we have some mother-daughter time?" Mrs. Alanson made the request.I have no right to refuse, and I would also enjoy cooking with her. "It's an honor to be in the kitchen with you, Mom, and I'll try to make something nice despite my nervousness." I declare, and what I just s

Let Arthur go.
It was more than I expected to have dinner with Arthur's mother and aunt Astrid. I assumed that when I met Arthur's parents, I'd be chastised for my fat appearance, and that they'd make fun of me because I'm not as pretty as a doll.Arthur's mother had excused herself to go pick up a phone call, and as she returned, she had a mighty frown on her face.I was the first to notice her frown, and as she approached the dining table, I arched my brows before questioning her. "Is everything okay, Mom?" I inquired of her.Mrs. Alanson looks at me with a disgusted expression before shifting her gaze to her son.Arthur quickly noticed his mother's intense gaze on him and stopped eating as he arched his brows at her. "Mom." Mrs. Alanson did not respond when Arthur called out for his mother. "With your intense gaze, sis, you are scaring everyone." Mrs. Alanson was told by Arthur's aunt.Finally, Mrs. Alanson blinked several times before taking her seat.Mrs. Alanson remained silent throughout the

Let's break up.
"Enough already, Mom!" Arthur exclaims as he rises from his seat, addressing his mother.Arthur Mom was taken aback by her own child's behavior. She arched her brows as she slowly shifted her gaze to Arthur. "Did… did you just scream at your mother?" She asked while stuttering.Arthur didn't want to respond to his mother because he was dissatisfied with her actions. "Did you just yell at your mother, Arthur?" She inquired once more.Arthur is so enraged at her that he cannot bring himself to say anything. "Pumpkin, let's go home." Arthur declared as he looked at me with a brief smile on his lips.I return his smile as I wipe away the tears that were streaming down my cheeks. "You don't have to worry because I can go on my own." I declared as I rose from my seat.I was about to leave the dining room when Arthur rushed up to my side and grabbed my wrist.He stared at me with a pleading gaze as he briefly bit his lower lips. "Please let me follow you." Arthur pleaded, but I could only fo

Your Grandchild.
"All right then." Arthur's mother stated.Arthur turned around and shot his mother with a lethal glare. "What? It's a good thing you're both breaking up now." She added without hesitation.Arthur exhaled while biting his lower lips. He rushed over to my side and grabbed my hands. "Cornelia, don't do this to me. You already know how much I love you, so please don't mind my mother, okay? Cornelia, I love you, so please… Please don't do this to me...""I'm sorry, Arthur, but I won't be able to stay." I declared before yanking my hands away from Arthur's firm grip.He didn't let go and ran towards me, wrapping his hands around my waist. "Don't... Please don't do this to me Cornelia, you're breaking my heart." As he rested his head on my back, he stammered.I'm on the verge of grabbing the door knot, but Arthur's grip on me prevents me from doing so. "Please... Arthur, ple… please release me." As I forcefully swallow my saliva, I beg.He shakes his head side to side. "Cornelia, I can't… I

Straightforward question.
"What exactly did you say?" Arthur's mother questioned me, her brows slightly arched.She wasn't looking at me with curiosity; instead, she was looking at me with disgust on her face.I was so irritated that I turned around and decided to excuse myself from this house before I got a serious headache because I've been through enough in life and explaining myself to Arthur's mother wasn't worth it."Cornelia, I believe you need to explain something to me. What the hell do you mean when you say the child you have is Arthur's? You should not start imposing yourself on my son because your child's father abandoned you." She yelled.It hurts like hell when Arthur's mother speaks to me as if I had offended her in a previous life.Some minutes ago, she was chatting with me and speaking to me in a friendly manner, but humans all have different personalities."I don't need to justify myself to you, Mrs. Alanson."Mrs. Alanson grabbed my wrist and pulled me back as I was about to walk into the si

Ended things up.
I hailed a cab as fast as my petite little could carry me.I told the cab driver where I wanted to go, which was none other than Elizabeth Restaurant.Elizabeth is my only friend in town, so when I arrived at her restaurant, I rushed inside and asked her for assistance with a dollar bill.Elizabeth gave me a few dollars without even asking me a question, so I ran back outside and paid the cab driver."Do you want a bottle of warm water?" She inquired after I had taken my seat on a single chair at a table for two."You don't have to be concerned about me. Simply take care of your customers." I murmur.I always try to appear strong, and right now I'm trying to appear brave in front of Elizabeth, but deep down I'm in a lot of pain.I can't even feel my eyes because they were so weak, and they were also filled with tears that I'm fighting back from spilling."I'll bring you a glass of cold water." As she walked away from me, Elizabeth said.She had completely ignored my request that she s
