SLYVIA
I felt guilty. Even if I wanted to lie to myself and say that there's nothing going on now, I know that there's definitely something brewing. But how can I tell Nancy this?
I looked at her eyes that seemed to be trying to look into my soul and I hardened my heart. I absolutely can't tell her about whatever is brewing between the both of us.
"There really is nothing Nancy. How did you come up with this conclusion?" I asked.
"Because Sir Conan came to me and asked me what Slyvia said to you. I reported the situation to the Baroness earlier in front of the council of elders. I did not exactly tell her what Slyvia said to you then but I could see that Conan wanted to know. The way he sat up when your name was mentioned, if you're not looking closely, you definitely won'
AMARAThe way he worried about me was really sexy. I just wanted to jump into his arms and have him comfort me. But I can't do that. I can't give my heart to him. I will only be left with scars when he's gone.I was reminded of how depressed Nancy looked in her room just now. I don't want to be like that, living my life in only a shell."I already said that it doesn't have anything to do with you! Besides, who was the one who complained about his Chambers in the first place? If you didn't complain, do you really think that she would have found a way to use it against me? Stop pretending as if you're the good person!" I snapped. I need to push him as far away as possible.As long as he doesn't keep showing up in front of me, I'll be able to get rid of the feelings I have fo
CONANI entered my room and was shocked to see my sister waiting for me. What is she doing here?"Where have you been Conan? I've been waiting for over an hour" Anita said.I swallowed a gulp. She can't know that I've been seeing Amara right?I won't put it pass my sister. There's nothing that she doesn't know about in the palace."It's been a long day for me. I was just walking around the palace for fresh air. Why? Is there a reason you were looking for me?" I asked.Anita was still staring intently at me. I think she was trying to figure out what I am thinking. But of course there's no way I'd give her that chance. Since I've decided to stay away from Amara, I should not bring more trouble to her."You've had a long da
AUTHOR You're thinking about why you did it right? You are thinking that you should have just left when you had the chance right? I'm sure that you know the answer deep down inside of you. You know it. But you don't want to accept it. You're still in love with me! It's all useless bow but you've never stopped loving me. Don't try to run away from it!" Nolan said. Nancy rolled her eyes. He was on point, but she didn't want to admit because there's no need to do that now. He already chose someone else. "You already chose someone else back then. What's the use of trying to analyze my feelings for you?" Nancy asked. "It's because you are trying so hard to pretend that you don't feel anything for me. You know that it's a lie. You've stayed here as a maid for so long because this gives you the opportunity to see me. Even though it's painful, you still want to see me so you're willing to suffer through the pain" Nolan said. He seemed to be trying to convince himself of Nancy's love.
SYLVIA A Few Weeks Later Because of what happened with Amara, I had been keeping a low profile in the palace. I so badly wanted to storm over to her and question her so many times in the past few weeks many times but I always managed to stop myself. I think that Conan and Rocky's treats must have gotten to me too. The both of them made me so scared that I didn't dare to go do anything to Amara. Even though I really hated her , I didn't do anything to her. In fact, I had to stay away from her. Worse was the fact that most of the maids had stopped talking to me. I know that many of them did not like me before and I didn't care, but they still tried to make conversation with me before all this even though it was fake. After that day, it was as if all of them had taken a collective decision. Ignore Slyvia until she runs mad. Even the Baroness doesn't let me do anything for her now. She used to like me before but she looks as if she just can't wait to get away from me nowadays
AUTHORMore than getting revenge on Slyvia, she was sending her away because she knows that Slyvia is just laying low for now. She will definitely try to hurt Amara again once she bounces back. It's best to get rid of her now. "You old bitch! Do you think this is over?!" Slyvia yelled. "You can go ahead and make a scene all you want. Just know that you need to get your stuff and get the hell out of this place before morning" Nancy said. She was done playing nice to Slyvia. Someone needs to put her in her place. "Don't you dare think that this is over! It's not! I won't let you do this to me! I won't let you mess around with my life! I want to see the baroness! She's the only one who can make this decision! What makes you think you can transfer me? Just because you're the head maid?!" Slyvia continued to rant. She won't be able to see Conan if she goes to work in the laundry department. How is she supposed to seduce him and get him to fall in love with her if she can't even see h
AUTHOR"Thank you. I know that I don't have the right to say this to you but I'm really grateful that you're leaving her alone" Nolan said "That is because unlike you Nolan, I'm not a heartless person. Although I am angry, I know that it's not her fault you've treated me the way you did. She's also completely innocent" Anita said. Nolan wanted to continue the conversation but he thought better of it. Anita definitely won't want to listen to him. There's no need for him to try and upset her further. ......."Wait Slyvia" Conan called. Slyvia and Nancy stopped. The both of them turned to look at Conan."I hope this will teach you a lesson Slyvia. Stay away from Amara. Don't try to plot against her. Although I doubt that you'll be able to do that from where you are right now. Oh and also, keep your mouth shut. My sister cannot find out about anything that you know" Conan said. He knows that Slyvia has almost slipped and told his sister about him and Amara. Just because she didn't g
AMARAThe other maid tried to stop her. "Do we have to do this? It's basically stepping on someone who's already down. What will we get from it?""You're really too nice! Do you think that she would care about any of that if you are the one who's in her position now? She'd make sure to come laugh at you! Why do you need to care about such a person? Besides, have you forgotten how many times she bullied you and made you take the blame for her actions? She even made you do her chores! Have you forgotten about all of this? Just think of it as getting back at her for all the things that she's done to you!" The skeptical maid smiled. "I think you are right. Let's go see for ourselves. Anyway, we won't have to deal with her anymore from now on so there's no harm in going to take a look for ourselves" she said. I watched mouth agape as they talked about Slyvia. Slyvia has picked on me a lot but I thought that I am the only one that she's doing it to . I have no idea that she's somehow offe
AMARA"You guys....I'm telling you guys all of this for your own good! I don't want you to be tricked her her! Why are you all treating me like a bad person? I'm really looking out for all of you here!" Slyvia said."You've never helped anyone else out before. You've only ever thought of how to bully us and get us to do your chores for you. Now that you're leaving, you suddenly want to tell us that Amara is a bad person who will bully us? No, you just hate Amara. Since you can't continue to bully her yourself, you need someone to take over from where you stopped. We aren't idiots. We have eyes and we can see for ourselves what's going on!"All of the maids standing up for me made me feel warm and guilty at the same time. I haven't felt this kind of care since my parents died. Seeing people who aren't even all that close to me standing up for me made me feel warm.
