He remembered that when Mary had just joined them and started living with them, even though her meals were still more delicious than their grandaunt, there wasn’t a very huge gap as it currently was.“Just slightly better than your grandaunt but as we eat more as they continue improving themselves, the more the gap continues increasing,” Antonio said causing Octavius to nod his head.He remembered his father saying that Celestine had asked him to take good care of his daughter when Rhiannon discovered her real identity. He felt that it was then most changes started happening even Mary’s cooking. Although he was suspicious he didn’t dare tell his father anything at the moment.The following day, Rhiannon woke up early startling Octavus who was sleep sleeping.“Where are you going?” he asked her sleepily as he held her tightly so that she couldn’t get out of bed.“I have to make sure that everything is ready before the others wake up so that they cannot be worried,” Rhiannon replied maki
“Can’t you sleep for a while?” he asked with a frown as he wanted to sleep while holding her in his arms as it had been a long time since they slept together.“Naah. I have to make sure that when the others start preparing themselves, I can help them prepare myself. If I sleep then am afraid that when I wake up later, I will be in a hurry and might make mistakes,” Rhiannon said.“Hope there aren’t a lot of things you are going to do,” he said making Rhiannon chuckle.“I am just going to check whether all the ingredients are present so that the chefs cannot be running to the market instead of cooking and wasting time. Also, whether all seats are there,” Rhiannon said and Octavius nodded in understanding.“Because of the people coming, the high-ups, all roads leading this way have been closed down. All the shops and malls around have been ordered to close also because we don’t want anyone to be assassinated by a sniper from the other buildings,” Rhiannon said.“You talked to the police?
After an hour of going around looking whether everything was perfectly done and completed apart from the kitchen, Rhiannon sighed in relief and looked at everything with a smile on her face feeling an accomplishment for what she had done.“Can some of you take the breakfast to their rooms?” Rhiannon asked as she walked back to the kitchen.“That can also do so that they can start to get ready after eating instead of waiting for them to freshen up and come to eat breakfast then freshen up once more when they get ready while they can still first eat then freshen up as they get ready immediately,” Bancy said as she checked her watch feeling that they didn’t have a lot of time on their side.“Yeah,” Rhiannon replied to her as that were her thoughts when she was instructed for breakfast to be taken to their rooms.Her brother-in-law had also arrived late at night as they had to be the host and couldn’t afford to be late.The others followed her instructions and took the breakfast to their
Anabelle asked in disbelief as she had ordered their clothes according to the theme color of the party,"Yeah. I thought that as mom's children, we should wear something matching but you shouldn’t think that they look like mom’s and dad’s outfits,” Rhiannon said with a smile as they walked out of the room and closed the door.“Then why didn’t you tell me?” Anabelle asked.“there is no need to tell you as am not the one who designed the clothes,” Rhiannon said as she felt Anabelle’s joy was unnecessary since she understood that the latter was happy thinking that she was the one who had designed the clothes.“Huh? Then who?” Annabelle asked as she didn’t believe that Rhiannon also wasn’t wearing her designs.“One of my designing companies,” Rhiannon said making Anabelle understand.“Bancy?” she asked when she remembered Octavius' words.“Naah,” Rhiannon replied with a smile on her face.“Stop asking a lot of questions and let’s go for them as we don’t have time on our side” Rhiannon add
Rhiannon looked at her and also smiled as the gown fitted Anabelle perfectly.The company where the clothes were made, she wasn’t the one who designed them. A designer in the company did and she just perfected it when it was sent to her for review.“Well, I should say thank you in advance,” Rhiannon said with a smile as she wasn’t afraid of offending the Andersons with her in-laws on her side.“About that also, can you please give my poor cousin classes? After all, we are all families and we should help each other. You can also work with each other you know,” Anabelle said as she felt it would be great if her cousin learned under Rhiannon.She wasn’t trying to get Rhiannon’s secret designs and talents but she genuinely wanted Rhiannon and her maternal family to get along as they still needed Anderson's help in protecting Rhiannon.Rhiannon smiled at her and agreed as she didn’t have a problem teaching another one more person since she was also teaching her mother’s apprentices' childr
There was a commotion downstairs when Country Y’s general commander arrived.When he met with Anabelle’s husband, the two saluted each other before everyone else saluted him.Everyone who came to the party believed that the guy was present because he was his fellow general commander, although they served different countries.“Welcome sir,” Octavius said coldly as he wasn’t used to smiling outside.Hearing his voice, the guy stared at him for a while before sizing him up then nodded in approval.“I didn’t find any flaws today but that doesn’t mean that I won’t in the future,” he replied to Octavius making everyone confused Antoni looked at the man wondering what was happening as it seemed that he knew his son.He shot Octavius a questioning gaze but the latter shook his head indicating that he had never met with the commander.“Commander Shawn please come in,” Antonio said as he led the party into the party but just as they had entered the hall, they had another person who had walked i
Hearing that, Mary frowned and then relaxed before started panicking.Since he was a distinguished figure those who had just arrived, all those who had been seated stood up hurriedly to pay their respect to the royal while many were excited as they had never seen a royal before only on the TVs. They felt that coming to the party was the best decision they had made since they could see a lot of people whom they rarely saw.When the prince walked in, everyone was bowing their heads.“Greetings, you may all stand up,” he said as he was pleased with how he was welcomed.He had initially thought that since they weren’t from his homeplace, they wouldn’t give him the respect he surely received but now he thought that he was just overthinking.They were all raised.“Welcome second Prince,” They all said in unison as for the moment, it wasn’t the prince attending Amanda’s party but visiting the commoners like them.Although they were rich families, to the Royals, they were commoners.“Well, I
“You want to slap me for saying the truth?” Rhiannon asked sharply as she shook the man’s hand before letting go making him stumble backwards.“You slut! Celestine died when you were young thus I am sure that you were never taught manners,” the woman said coldly as she lifted her hand in a flash as she didn’t believe that Rhiannon would hold her wrist as she had done previously.“No matter how fast everyone acted, even Rhiannon could not dodge the slap.“How dare you!” cold voices rang surprising everyone.Antonio who was among them was surprised and looked at the table where Brandon and the rest were then looked at Rhiannon.“How dare you slap my wife in front of me!” Octavius said as he walked in front of Rhiannon.“Young miss,” the bodyguards ran into the room when a booming voice from the ear drum took everyone by surprise.Antonio looked at the dozens of men and women who had run in and looked at Rhiannon with a serious look.“I am fine,” Rhiannon said coldly but they didn’t stan
