Chapter 416: : Late



I left the Palace with a lot of questions in my mind. I got too busy with Mister Sewell's favors that I forgot to check on my three leads.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

What is happening with them? Do they already confessed their feelings to Princess Paislee? And what about her secrets? Do they know that too?

I groan and slump my body on my bed. I have a lot of questions but I know no one can answer it for me. I couldn't ask Rufus because I already cut my ties with him. I also couldn't ask Prince Fraser because I do not want him to think that I am still into him. The real Csille is, but I am not!

I also couldn't ask Princess Paislee or else she might also think that I am still into Prince Fraser which is not good because what is he is already catching feelings for Prince Fraser? Wouldn't I mess everything up again?

But if I remain staying here, I would think about these questions again and again.

I let out a soft groan again. I am soo frustrated that I want to rush to the two friends and interrogate them.

"Why do I have a lot of things to do? I know I am the villainess here but isn't this too much? I am already having trouble with Mister Sewell's favors and I still need to check on the three leads?" I complain to myself.

I don't have anyone to complain to so I have no choice but to just talk to myself because only I can know this secrets.

"Three leads? Who are you talking about? Who are these three leads that you needs to check?"

I almost had a heart attack when I heard someone speak. I immediately get up from my bed and look at my door. I found Father smiling at me with a tray in his hand. On the tray there is a prinsesstårta and tea.

"Apologies for startling you. I was knocking in your door for a few seconds now but you still haven't reply. So, I decided to just open it." He looks at my bed. "Am I interrupting your sleep?"

I shake my head subconsciously while I stare at my Father confusedly. I don't understand why he is here. It's still daytime. So, how come he is already in the house? I thought after the announcement that the Vrawyth Kingdom will not comply with the Aeslaerean's demands, everyone will be busy. So, how come Father is here?

Father puts the tray down on the bedside table before he looks at me. "May I?" He was asking if it's okay for him to sit on my bed. I nod my head to him as a response. Father looks satisfied with my answer that he gives me a wide smile.

"I know you are confused why I am already here. His Majesty ask me to come to the Palace early this morning. He ask for my suggestions and after our conversation he told me to take a break today. That's why I am already here. I was hoping to prepare a surprise dinner for you and your Mother. However, I was the one shocked when I see you return this early. Is everything okay? You look bothered when you return. Also, who are the three leads you are talking about?"

I heave a sigh. As much as I want to share my problems with him, I know I couldn't do that. This is a secret that only me should know.

"I am just worried if I have mentioned the right people to his majesty. I couldn't help but worry about my suggestions. What if his majesty decided to assigned them and they all fail? I don't think I can bear that too much responsibility?"

That was a lie. How can I be worried if I know I did the right thing? I just told Father that because I couldn't tell him the truth. I also decided to fall on deaf ears about his question with the three leads. I don't know how can I answer his question that is why I ignore it. I just hope he wouldn't notice what I did.

Father frowns when he heard what I said. "His majesty also asked for you suggestions?" He sounds so surprise about it and I don't know if I should be insulted with his reaction. Does he thinks Csille isn't qualified to be asked by his majesty?

But I just shrugged it off. How can I make a biggie out of it? I am sure Father doesn't mean it like that.

him. My mind just couldn't help but worry with what will happen next. What will happen to the Kingdom? What will happen between the three leads?

"Father, I am okay. I just couldn't help but worry what will happen next. Is there no way we

can avoid this war?"

I already know the answer to my question. There is no other way. We all need to go through

this.

Father gently caress my head. "Are you scared, Csille?"

I look at Father's eyes and nod my head. No, I am not just scared. I am terrified of the future.

Father gives me a reassuring smile. "Don't worry, Csille. I will not let anything happen to you or to our family. So, you don't have to be scared, okay? But can you promise me one thing in

return?"

I immediately frown when I heard what he said. He wants me to do something for him in

return for protecting us? His own family?

"What is it, Father?"

Father takes my hand and gently caress it. "Can you promised me not to join that new

department? I do have a feeling that his majesty will give you a position after you have given him your suggestions. So, can you promise me that you will not accept that offer?"

I frown. Why would I? If I do that I will be going against the storyline. So, why would I risk it? "Father, may I know the reason why you don't want me to accept it?"

Father squeezes my hand. "Csille, you are our only child. If you become part of that new

department, you will be putting your life in danger. We are talking about war here, my dear. What if something happened to you while doing your job? I don't your Mother and I can bear that? So, can you promise me not to accept his majesty's offer?"

I will be putting my life in danger by joining the department?

But Father, I have already done that when I decided to join Mister Sewell. I already put my life

in line. Isn't it too late for that?
