Chapter 23: His Ultimate Vow

"Ms. Kanellis, It's not much. You know my mom, right? She loves this orphan house and the children so much. I'm doing this to make my mother in heaven feel happy. And don't worry about me. I still have money to live. Besides, I don't have to pay anything to continue my studies—" Allynna paused. 

She really wanted to continue her words, "—Nor did I have to pay for the house and food. Later, I will live with my future husband in the capital. He is sitting next to me now." But, these words never left her lips. 

Allynna's cheeks felt warm at the thought. She quickly shook her head, trying to get rid of her thoughts about her future husband, Leon. For some unknown reason, she always felt that his presence sometimes made her feel comfortable and warm, but there was also a feeling that this man was too dominant towards her.

...

Seeing that Ms. Kanellis was no longer trying to refuse, Allynna smiled and continued, "Hopefully, this money can be used for the children's needs... Ms. Kanellis, please accept my good intentions."

She felt better after donating almost all of her parents' money.

After talking with Ms. Kanellis, she decided to say goodbye. But before she left the room, Leon whispered to her, "Miss Allynna, you wait for me in the car. There's something I want to talk to, Ms. Kanellis."

Allynna felt surprised to hear his request but didn't ask further; she just nodded and left the room. Walking down the corridor, she saw no children in the area. She decided to wait for Leon on the bench outside the building. 

A few moments later, Allynna heard footsteps approaching her. She looked back and saw Leon walking towards her.

"Sir Leon, have you finished talking to Ms. Kanellis? Are you also donating to this orphan house?" She asked curiously why this man needed to talk to this orphaned Director. 

Leon saw the girl smile broadly and walk towards him. He nodded without answering and motioned her to follow him to the car. He didn't want them to linger in this place.

He didn't want anyone to know that his fiancé was still alive and had lived in this orphanage. If the person who kidnapped her when she was a baby several years ago heard the news about her, then her life would be in danger. Evil people with bad intentions towards her will come after her and anyone she loves.

This time, Leon won't let that happen. He vows to protect the one and only bride he would ever have and might love from any life's threatening perils.

So before he left the Director's room, Leon erased Ms. Kanellis's memories and information about Allynna at this orphanage. 

Leon's plan is not only that Miss Kanellis' memory will be erased but everyone who knows about Allynna's true status as an adopted daughter. One of them is Principal Pearcy.

Leon would keep Allynna at his side and use her identity as Allynna Frost. He will not reveal her true identity to anyone until he finds the person who wants to take her life. He will kill the sinner and his offspring. There would be no compassion for those who took what he had.

They walked towards the car that was waiting for them right in front of the gate.

With a sharp look, Leon warned Geoffrey, standing by the car waiting for them, not to glance at the girl. Moreover, when the girl wears very short clothes, he makes a note in his mind he would ask Geoffrey to provide her with new clothes that would suit her new life in the royal family in the capital.

Leon's sudden stop made Allynna hit his back hard.

"S-Sir Leon? Why did you suddenly stop?" Allynna stroked her forehead while narrowing her eyes at him.

Before Allynna continued her words, she suddenly felt a thick coat covering her tiny body. The fresh and hypnotic aroma of mint immediately filled her nose.

Allynna was stunned to find that the black business coat that Leon was wearing was now perched on her shoulders, covering her entire body down to her ankles.

She looked at him and wanted to say something, but Leon ignored her. He was standing at the side of the open car door. 

"Hurry and get in the car—" Leon said with his gentle yet cold voice. After confirming the girl was sitting correctly, he closed the door and walked to the opposite door. There's a faint smile on his face before he opens the door and joins her.

"Sir Leon, your coat…." Allynna said the moment he sat on his seat.

"Use it until you change into proper clothes," Leon said. Then, he turned his gaze out the window to tell her he didn't want to talk anymore.

Allynna took a deep sigh silently, knowing Leon had avoided her. She could only smile and do the same, looking out the window. 

They traveled to the mansion for about an hour in the opposite direction from Sarlun city center. Allynna had never been in this area before. Because this area is a private place that is not open to the public.

Allynna was curious to see the large road flanked by shady trees. She didn't see any other cars passing on the street on the broad road, only their vehicle. After a while, the car finally slowed when they arrived in front of a large white two-story mansion.

"Geoffrey, please take Miss Allynna's suitcase to the room next to mine," said Leon before the car stopped.

Geoffrey immediately bowed slightly, "Yes, your high… sir." His heart almost jolted out when he nearly called him by his peerage. The crown prince's first order for them was clear before coming to this island. Do not reveal his true identity to anyone, especially the girl he wanted to pick up.

"Miss Allynna, follow Geoffrey upstairs. Change your clothes and come to my study. I need to talk to you..." Leon left Allynna after he ordered Geoffrey to assign a female servant to help her.


Chapter 24: The List of Question

"My Lady, after you," Geoffrey's voice made Allynna snap out. She turned away from Leon's back, disappeared behind the door, and looked at Geoffrey.

"So, your name is Sir Geoffrey?" Allynna asks him with her respectful voice. She was sure this thin man was Sir Leon's butler.

"My Lady, please don't call me sir. Just call me by name, Geoffrey," He lowered his head even more, not daring to see her face. Prince Eleon will behead him if he knows; Lady Allynna still calls him 'Sir.'

Allynna was speechless. She felt that the way Geoffrey and the other servants in this mansion treated her was so foreign to her.

She didn't know what she should do or say to them. Moreover, Leon didn't explain how she should act in front of these people. This all made her even more confused.

Allynna walked ahead while Geoffrey told her the way from behind. She glanced at Geoffrey a few times, but this man was still avoiding eye contact with her. She feels amused looking at how he acts before her. Now, she began to suspect that Geoffrey was afraid of her.

After arriving at the second floor, Allynna saw two large doors next to each other. Geoffrey asked her to walk towards the door on the left.

Allynna was mesmerized by the grandeur of the room. It looks so luxurious in her eyes. She had never seen gold-decorated furniture like this before and was blinding her eyes. She stood in her place until Geoffrey closed the door and left her alone in the large room.

She gasped slightly when she realized the room was the same size as the first floor of her house. She looked around, but a few moments later, she felt her head dizzy with this luxury.

Her mind started to guess Leon's status. 'He must be a noble's son with a high status in the empire, right!?'

An ordinary noble family can't have a luxurious mansion on Sarlun Island in an exclusive location away from the public road.

From the information she knew, this location was only owned by the pure royal family, the close family of the emperor.

Allynna stopped by the large glass window overlooking the white sandy beach behind the mansion. Instantly, she wanted to stroll on the white sandy beach and swim in the emerald ocean.

After a few minutes of looking at the stunning view, Allynna looked at her suitcase. She chose to wear a knee-length blue dress. She didn't want to waste time as she remembered Leon wanted to talk to her.

Allynna went to the bathroom and changed her clothes. However, when she exited the bathroom, she saw a small girl standing by the door, waiting for her.

The girl is shorter than her and has short black hair. After a closer look, Allynna thinks she is still a teenager; her age may be the same as her.

"Hello, may I know your name?" Allynna greeted the girl politely. She knew this girl was the maid that Leon asked to help her.

Allynna was suprised when she saw the little girl didn't answer her. Instead, her face turned white as paper. In a hurry, she bowed deeper, not daring to see her. Before Allynna wanted to continue her words, she heard her stuttering voice, "M-My Lady, m-my name is Le-Lella. I will be your servant while you stay in this mansion." she said. 

Allynna feels amused, but she is holding back her smile. She must tell Lella she doesn't have to feel intimidated or scared of her. But after Allynna said that, Lella looked even more afraid. Gosh! She can only take a deep sigh at Lella's reaction.

She didn't need her help then, so Allynna asked her to leave her room. But Lella only stood there, not moving a single step. She feels like she wants to cry now. She doesn't know how to face this servant.

After a moment, finally, Lella speaks to her in her soft voice. "My lady, His High… Sir Leon is waiting for you in his study room."

"Can you take me there?" 

Lella nods slightly. "My pleasure, My lady. Please follow me," she said. 

Allynna immediately followed Lella to Leon's study room. Allynna sorts out her heart and mind on the way to his study room. She is trying to get used to dealing with Leon and the people around him. 

Her eyes can see several servants walking down the corridors, and none dared to raise their heads to look at her. They bow deeper when she walks near them. Their actions amaze her even more.

Not long after, Allynna arrived outside of Leon's study. After Lella knocked and announced her presence, the door opened from the inside. Allynna saw Geoffrey open the door, and still, he bowed his head, avoiding to see her. 

When she entered the study room, Geoffrey exited and closed the door. Now, in the room were only her and Leon. Instantly, the room felt colder because Leon ignored her presence. He is just sitting at his desk writing something.

Allynna Stood still in her place, waiting for him while glancing at the large window in the corner. She felt joy when she saw a white sandy beach lay before her eyes. And instantly, she forgot his present in the room. 

'Gosh... why does the beach here look so pretty? I wish I had the opportunity to swim at this beautiful beach—' She silently talks to herself, immersed in the stunning view outside.

"Miss Allynna, you can sit first," Leon finally speaks. But his eyes, still looking at the paper, didn't glance at Allynna.

Allynna snapped out of her trance. She followed his order and then sat on the sofa. Her eyes looked around the room, which looked neat with luxury furnishings; there was only a large work desk, a bookshelf filled with old books, and a leather sofa set where she was now sitting.

After a few moments, she saw Leon, who seemed still busy with what he was doing. She turned her gaze out the window again, ignoring him. 

Her mind was busy thinking about the list of questions she must ask Leon: Which family was he from? Does he come from a royal family with a high title? How old is he? What's his job? And she also wants to know how she should act with the people in this house. 

The servants and staff in this mansion didn't seem to welcome her. She had tried her best to greet them politely and smile at them. However, those people just lowered their heads and avoided her. Their response made Allynna feel uncomfortable.

However, of all the questions on the list, the number one question Allynna wanted to know was: Can he really help her find her birth parents?
