<JUST WHEN I OPENED MY EYES>
3
She can't believe what she seen in the screen, Cyden love Percentage increase
But she can't see his percentage!
She froze for a minute before hearing someone calling her
"It seems it's going to night my lady, let's get you a bath"
She turned her head to the woman direction, thinking about something
"Uh... Okay"
"Follow me then young lady"
The woman turn behind waiting for her to get up from the chair, she immediately get up and follow her without saying anything ,she was able to catch the maid expression, confused.
Well, previously she wasn't that much obedient person to the maid, so she guess it was no wonder they're confused.
When she stepped to the bath, she can also see the bath is already filled with warm water, just like before.
"Please get in the bath, my lady"
Marinda told her, she just went to the bath quietly without refusing, it feels good, before she just splashed with warm water by the maid, she just gave up and let the maid to do their works.
'She smell like flower..'
She thought as she took a glance at Marinda
Well, she enjoyed the bath, it was nice, she feels refreshed than ever.
Now she are done taking bath, and went to dressing
"Now let me help you with the dress, young lady"
Marinda said as she went to the wardrobe meanwhile she sit looking at mirror again.
not long after that the maid came back with the dress and help her to wear it.
"When will the order be finished?"
"In 2 or 3 days my lady..."
"I see"
"Do you want to tie your hair or-"
"Let it be."
She cut Marinda words instantly without looking at her, crossing her arm, while Marinda just agreed
"Alright"
Just then, someone knocked on the door, she turned her head towards the door, tilting her head
"Open it"
She said as she look at the door opened, it was Harrison, the old man again, face still plastered with the smile
"The master wish to have dinner with you, young lady"
She crossed her arms and think for a moment, should she?
Since before after Elise appearance she didn't went to have dinner with the Duke and others.
She may want to get loved by them, but it was just suffocate looking how they loved Elise.
"Young lady yvonne?"
Her head then turn to the source of the sound
Ah
"Alright..."
She answered and get up,before that she turned her head towards the maid.
"I'm going now"
She said and the maid didn't replied but bowed down quietly.
'Now that I think she don't act like other maid in here, she looks more calmer'
Is it because she have serving her for a long time?
She then turned her head back and follow Harrison from behind quietly, all the Servant that sees her bowed down and run away as if scared of her.
Even though she is a harsh lady towards them, she never dare to hurt then physically or emotionally.
Yet they still scared of her, a child.
She just like to scold the maid or servant if the did something wrong, and never tried hit them or throw things, is it because she had a fight with Elise?
Her first encounter with her... At her 8 birthday...
Yet, she do put the maid on their own place. There are few people in the palace eventually act like they were higher than her.
And then she snapped back to reality.
"We're arrived now lady."
Harrison said as the door opened slowly revealing the family members.
The Duke sat down at her middle, while The Duchess, her step mother is besides her.
Her siblings is on the other side looking at her.
"Enjoy your dinner, young lady"
She just nodded and walk past Harrison to the dining room, she can feel their stare as she sat down besides her step mother.
Yvonne step mother, Adeline, a Count daughter that are praised very much, she married father a 5 years after mother death.
She never close to her or even call her as a mother, instead she called her as 'Stepmother' or 'fake mother'
'Step mother...'
She then looked at her siblings that sat opposite side of the table
Erez and Ares are seated on the other side, or rather I said, in front of us. They both are twins.
She then hear her father asking
"How are you feeling now yvonne?"
Her gaze turned to her father, Helios, the person she really loves in the family.
She just answered him shortly as... It feels weird after seeing her father face at the execution
"I'm fine..."
"Father"
She continued, her memory recalled that time before the execution.
"Don't ever you call me father, you wrench."
He said to her who are falsely being framed by the woman hid behind him.
She then looked away, avoiding gaze
"That's... Good"
He answered with a smile before continuing, she went back to look at him and then turn to her siblings
'Oh he's introducing them to me as he thought i lost memory'
She said in her thought
"Right... Yvonne, these are your brother and sister"
He said as he pointed at them, the brothers went to looked at her, no expression
"You must don't know about them from your... Amnesia."
father said and then
"The one with black brooch is Erez, and the other one with white brooch are Zeke,and besides you is Elise."
He said as he introduc them to her, she know exactly how to tell a difference of Erez and Zeke even though they didn't wear the brooch
She can see her father pause again for a second before continuing.
"Elise is your adopted older sister, so I hope you can get along with her."
Her gaze moved toward the twin who seated in front of her, their face looks bored, typical looks she always received.
Though she think both of them are cute.
[ CONGRATULATIONS, YOU HAVE MEET 2 OTHER CANDIDATE ]
'THESE TWO IS ALSO THE CANDIDATE?'
Her brother???
She froze but then shift back to normal and replied to her father.
"I see"
She replied shortly and turned her gaze away, she looked at Elise for a moment.
They both made an eye contact, and Elise just smiled at her, complete different smile but it still disgust her.
"You should rest more yvonne"
Yvonne turned her head toward the source of the sound, it was her step mother, Adeline.
I was never close to her as she keeps critique her mannerisms or how she was doing as if she kept doing failure
"Yes step-mother..."
She could see her eyes sharpened for a moment, she always do this when she called her that
"Let's start now"
Helios said as the food being served, they started to eat slowly, it was awkward somehow, she also can feel the gaze of the twins, but she ignored it and focused on the feast.
'It was juicy'
The food was in her liking, it was cooked well, was Cyden the one or one of in the kitchen that cooked this?
She smiled without noticing how the twins reacted
"What?"
She turned to the source of the voice, it was from Erez
"Anything wrong Erez?"
She asked innocently as she tilt her head a little with a smile, yet she can see how Erez just looked away and replied
"Nothing."
The dinner was luxurious and tasty, really enjoying it.
"Do you enjoy it, yvonne?"
Her father asked to her, her gaze turned to her father and replied shortly.
"Yes, it's tasty."
"Are Cyden the one who cooked these by any chance?"
She asked it without hesitation, the room turned silent for a moment, Elise looked at her.
?
"The head butler son Harrison?"
Her step mother said, as she glanced at her but her father then replied
"Few of these are cooked by the head chef, but are helped by Cyden Edrick"
He said as he wiped his mouth with handkerchief
"I see"
"You already know Cyden?"
Her step mother asked while looking at her intently.
"Yes... I meet him in the garden and also Aiden and Elise."
"I see"
Her mother replied shortly,And continue to eat, no one speak until the dinner finished
While eating, Yvonne smile without noticing, Only one person who notice it, Erez, the first brother.
"The fruit are really good!"
Yvonne turned her head to the source of the voice, Elise, now she was eating orange that was also served on the table, well she didn't like orange.
So she just shrugged it off.
"Glad you like it"
Adeline Said, her step-mother are nice toward Elise, yet aware around her.
She didn't know why.
Not long after that, all of them finished eating, and get up from their seat.
Helios looked to the family members who already got up after he did before resting his gaze towards his daughter.
"Do you need anything, Yvonne?"
Yvonne was taken aback from the sudden question, it wasn't normal for her father to ask about her. But she answered honestly
"Money. Just give me some money."
She said, she would like to get money, incase she just chose to ran away...
[ THE SYSTEM AGREED OF YOUR THOUGHT ]
'eh?'
This system agreed of the idea of running away?
But she shifted her mind when Helios answered her
"Sure I'll get you a lot."
Helios answered without any hesitation showed.
"Great, thank you father."
She could feel her siblings looking at her, at least she didn't said to fire those bastard maid and wanting alcohol.
[ THE SYSTEM ASKED WHAT A 13 YEARS OLD GIRL WANT ALCOHOL ]
'A wild girl'
Furthermore, there might be something that she need to do, in that book... She didn't really remember clearly but one of the chapter mentioned of 'Dragon'
"Yes, I'll give you."
She smiled at her father, But she already loss for words and decide to return to her own chamber
"I excuse myself then father."
She said as and Helios just nodded and let her leave. After she return to her chamber, there is already Mary with the cheque.
'Ahh my beloved moneyyy!'
She almost forget how rich is her family is, she didn't really get many money pockets... Unlike other siblings who have more.
She took the cheque and check the amount
20 million gallon!
'20 million gallon...I'm in heaven~'
"What's today date?"
She suddenly asked Marinda, of course it make her shocked abit
"21th day of the 6th month in the 789 Felix calendar"
"I see"
She paused a minute before telling the maid to leave her alone, the maid now gone from the room, she opened the book that the weird screen just throw to her.
Thick books... This going to take a long time
Well... Just one hour reading... She already shocked because, there will be a dragon berserk 4 years, 2 month before her birthday.
"That is a problem..."
She closed the book, while looking down
"Dragon berserk... The dragon will be killed by a mage... Corey?"
It was weird to know that the one who killed the dragon are a mage, because the mage have always praise dragon as high being, but for now, she decided to change few things...
She feels like she have heard of the name... Yet she can't remember clearly when
She just jump to her bed with the book, before remembering it again.
Ah.
Right, there is a dragon berserk happening before and was stopped by a mage.
So the mage name is Corey!
And she then remember he was the one who also take care of the broken facilities of the village.
With the help of Castilla as the village was located in the Castilla terrorrity.
"What a hassle."
She said before drift to sleep, the book is still in her hands, not bothering to put it away.
