Kapitel 16: Return: Part 3
After the suffocating greeting in front of the mansion that the whole squad of Light Legion witness, I was now walking back to my room with my maid Sheila.
"Lady Evelyn, do you want tea? I'll bring Chamomile tea, it will help you to relax."
Sheila has been glancing back and forth on the floor and me trying to grasp my emotion.
"Yes... that would be good!"
Sheila nodded and quickly turn around to do the task.
Now that no one is in my room, I went to my desk and sit on my chair, trying to think about what happened earlier.
Flashbacks that keeps on repeating, my embarrassment... the mix look of the knights! It was freaking suffocating. I hate this type of situation.
"Haa... my reputation isn't even that good, to begin with, but now it hit rock bottom. Ha... ha..." Dry laughter escaped through my mouth.
I rest my head in the headrest of the chair, looking at the ceiling, the words that have been inside my head spilling out with frustration.
"Ha... ignoring me was fine but humiliating me in front of those people. Haha ... this place is shit as it can be! Just like back then..."
Memories of my past quickly replaced the ones' that's been repeating in my head.
-
Adelyn was running to her father after winning the children's race.
Her happy mood was painted in her small face.
"Daaaad!!! Look, I won second place!"
Slap!
Adelyn touches her red cheeks with her small hands, she was shocked with the pain that she felt in her swollen face.
The crowd became quiet and everyone is looking at their direction.
"Dad...?" Her blurry eyes were clearly seen by her father, she wondered what she did wrong to deserve a beating in front of many people.
The crowds murmuring can't be heard by Adelyn, her focus was only with her fathers' reply. Soon her question was answered.
"2nd Place? Ha! You must be kidding me Adelyn!"
The shock was evident to Young Adelyns' face.
"Wha- dad? What do you mean? I won... that's what you said. I should win."
Adelyn was trying to stop her tears from leaking out.
"I said WIN! That means to get the FIRST PLACE! FIRST PLACE ADELYN! you make me come here and all I will see is this trash?!"
Adelyns' father, snatched the silver medal that she was holding and throw it to the trash.
Adelyns' eyes grew bigger when she saw her prize thrown... it was her own hard prize that she works so much for.
-
As Evelyn remembers her past childhood experience, she thought that nothing can hurt her anymore...
That was what she thought...
"It still stings... Ha! Ha! Ha! Haaaa..."
A melancholic laugh rang in her quiet room.
This place was silent and it was depressing for a thirteen-year-old kid to be alone in the spacious room but not for Evelyn who is used to this kind of environment where she can find peace but soon a knock was tapping in her door.
"Who is it?" My sharp voice slipped unintentionally because of the sudden disturbance in my self-absorption.
"Cough! Lady Evelyn... the Duke wants to see you right now." The old man's voice said outside my door. It was the head butler.
I open my eyes with irritation.
***
"So you're telling me that the Crown Prince came here to deliver this letter?" The Duke inquire to his son, Allan.
"Yes, Father." His son, Allan, immediately answered.
The two have been talking about the visit of the Crown Prince to the manor while the Duke is in the North Border.
"Did he tell you anything?" The room grew colder because of the murderous aura that he was letting out.
Allan was having a cold shoulder and he shivers down his spine but he didn't let the Duke see it.
"No Father, he only gave the letter and quickly gone back to the palace." He answered a bit late that made his father question his answer.
"Are you sure Allan?" The Dukes' inquisition was sharp that made Allan flinch and he answers back faster than he did before.
"Yes...!"
After the talk of father and son, the butler was now inside the office helping his master to start preparing the report that his master will present to his Majesty, the King.
"Jede..."
"Yes, My Lord?"
"Tell me what happened."
"That..."
"Nevermind... Just call the teachers and after that call Evelyn for me Jede."
"Yes, My Lord..." the butler went and called the teachers of the Young Lady of the household.
The first to enter is Sir Ivo — Lady Evelyns' magic teacher.
The magician quickly enters the office and went back a few minutes. It was a short talk.
The two teachers also did the same thing — Sir Shiek open the door to the office and left after giving his report about the Lady.
Lady Thrisha also did the same for the Etiquette class.
The Duke called for Jede after the finished talk about Lady Evelyn to his teachers.
***
The butler, whose fast on his steps arrived at the door of her room.
The inside of Lady Evelyns' room was dead quiet.
He knows that the Lady was inside her room because she encountered Sheila coming out of the room.
'Knock... knock...' the sound of the wooden door vibrates inside the room.
"Lady Evelyn...?" He patiently waited for the Lady to answer back but the room was still quiet.
He knocks a few times again to make sure if the Lady was really there.
"Who is it?!"
A sharp cold voice replied back that shock the head butler.
He didn't see her but he can imagine the sunset eyes looking cold with no reflection.
He pushed back his thoughts and immediately relay the Dukes' message.
He dryly coughed first so that the Lady would know his presence first before saying the Dukes' order.
"Cough! Lady Evelyn... It is I, Jede. The Duke wants to see you in his office, Lady Evelyn."
The surrounding was quiet again that even the buzz of a fly couldn't be heard.
Then suddenly, the creek of a chair being push back and steps can be heard inside the room.
The girl quickly opens the door and stare at the butlers' face with annoyance.
"What did he want?! No... I mean, what did father called me for?"
The butler only smiled and didn't answer back.
Evelyn was frustrated that the butler, didn't give her the answer that she wants to know.
Evelyn bit her lower lip to suppress her instinct to kick the butlers' face.
'So... it's starting now. The employees will start to disrespect me. Great! Not only my family but also these people!'
"Lead the way!" I said with annoyance and arrogance in my tone.
