99 In the Royal Palace. (2/2)

”Hmph! I already don't like that guy! Even before marrying you, he has stolen all of your attention!”- Sarah said after she had calmed down from the pats.

”W-what WHAT?! M-m-m-marriage?! But that's so soon! And I don't even know him, why would he even... m-marry me?!”- Clara lost her calm the moment she heard the word marriage.

She imagined the onyx-haired man holding her hands as she was wearing a white wedding dress, the sky turning pink, and the birds chirping in the distance.

”Ara ara~? It hasn't been a minute, and you have already dozed off twice!”- Clara woke up from her fantasies to look at the threatening smile on Sarah's face.

”Hehehe... I'm sorry?”- Clara cheekily smiled as she rubbed the back of her head, embarrassed by her own actions.

”Would there even be a man out there who would reject you, Big Sister? Heh, I wouldn't even let that guy come close to you until he does not show enough respect to me.”- Sarah said as she raised her head, trying her best to imitate her father.

*Tuk.*

Clara gave a head chop to Sarah's head while shaking her head.

”What was that for!?”- Sarah asked while glaring hatefully at the silver-haired girl who had a smile on her face.

”Silly! Don't just go assuming things. I don't even know if I will be able to meet him or not.”

”Oooh, and what will you do, if you do meet him?”- Sarah teased with a smug face, already knowing what Clara's next reaction is going to be.

And just as she had expected, lost in her fantasies again, Clara was blushing to the ears!

”See! Again! Even though I somewhat expected it, it still doesn't fit right with me that you suddenly start to ignore me and start to daydream about this guy, hmph!”

*Tak! Tak!*

Just as they were going to continue their bickering, there was a knock at the door.

”It's me, Young Miss.”

A voice resembling that of a middle-aged woman sounded out behind the door.

”Oh, Venessa, you can come inside.”- Clara said after recognizing her maid's voice.

”Young Miss, Sir Hanry told me to inform you that everything is arranged. We will leave now.”- Venessa did a small bow before explaining.

”It's time already, huh?”- Clara sighed before she went out of the room with Sarah following behind her.

Meanwhile, Venessa waited a little while in the room and suddenly turned towards one of the walls.

”You shouldn't hear their private conversations, Sir Hanry.”- Venessa said while facing the wall.

”It's my duty, Venessa. If you have a problem with that, you can discuss it with the Master.”

While Venessa could still see no one in front of her, the direction the voice came from was the same position she was looking at.

*Whoosh...*

Once the voice disappeared, some wind developed within the room until it came to a standstill, and Venessa was left with no one to get out her frustration on.
