Chapter 2

Chapter 2

I look around their house as I'm seated on their plastic chair. They don't even have a single sofa! I pouted as I feel my butt starting to get numb...

Maybe I should buy them a sofa?

"No. You are not." I sneered at her and look away.

How could she guess what I was thinking?! She's too smart for seven years old.

"It's much more comfortable, though..."

"No. Look at our kitchen, we can't even fit anymore because of too much groceries!" I followed where her finger is pointing at.

I tilted my head while looking at their kitchen, almost filled with plastic bags.

Well, she can't blame me! I always buy the same thing as what we bought for the mansion. It's too much for me so I thought maybe it will be enough for a day for them.

"Then why don't you just sell them, earn it, and buy a new house?!" I suggested but she glared at me.

"Isn't that indirectly buying a house for us?" She raised her eyebrow while glaring at me.

I chuckled and smack her head. "Ungrateful child!" She snorted and look away.

"Masked Lady." Their mother said and smiled at me. I nodded as I acknowledge her.

"Thank you for all of this." I laugh and nodded.

"Don't act rudely in front of her." She simply reprimanded Klea and put another plastic chair beside me.

The little girl smiled at me sarcastically which made me laugh again. This kid, really.

"I'm grateful that you chose us."

"Oh come on, Sister. This is my responsibility. No need to thank me."

"No. It should be the King's responsibility. It's been a year since he announced that he'll help the people who live here but until now, there's still no progress." I could see the burning rage inside her eyes as she said those words.

If she finds out that I'm the king's daughter, I might not be able to come back here.

We waited for Butler Warren to come as I gave them ideas on what to do with the things I bought for them. After that Butler Warren arrives and gives all the things he bought for the kids. He is also wearing a mask to hide his identity.

This place is very dangerous, yet this is where the humans who have experienced the cruelty of the world but they still have a good heart.

This place is where the criminals live. Those criminals who don't have a choice but to do things for living.

This is not a good place for kids but this is the only place where they could live freely.

"Young Miss, the car is here." I nodded and ignored the kids who are saying their goodbyes. I hate saying goodbye and leaving this place.

Because once I leave this place it only means I need to pretend again.

"Young Miss, Master called a while ago. Your fiance is here..." He trailed off.

When did I have a fiance?!

"What-"

"To hide his identity and to be able to spend time with you... he'll be your personal bodyguard."

What?!

I think I heard it wrong?!

A prince pretending to be a bodyguard?!

Heh! Impossible!

"I did not know I have a fiance!" His brows furrowed and look at me from the back.

"I told you months ago." I glared at him.

"That was months ago! And I thought it was just a joke!" He just stared at me, as if he was telling me that I don't have a choice.

"I'll talk to father!" He nodded.

I sneered when I remembered something. "Do you think the Prince agrees to be a bodyguard?! No!"

Butler Warren smiled.

"The prince of Saltueresa is the one who suggested this kind of setup."

What? No way!

I mean, he is a prince!

Not only that, he is the prince of Saltueresa, the enemy of our kingdom! Our country!

"Father agreed? Does the other party know about this?! This can lead to war!" He smiled again.

"Princess, the Kingdon Saltueresa agreed with their prince. It's safer for the both of you if your identities are hidden."

Safer my ass!

If they really want me out of danger, shouldn't they let me live a normal life?!

Whatever.

I frowned but didn't fight back anymore. What can I do? I'm just a hidden princess. There's no way I can use my power.

I leaned my head at the window of the car.

I was about to close my eyes to sleep when I remember something.

"I didn't see that kid."

Butler Warren looked at me through the rearview mirror and said. "You mean seedless girl, Young Miss?" I nodded and closed my eyes.

"She's sick. Based on the kids, someone bullied her at their school for eating a seedless fruit. Then, someone forces her to eat fruit with seeds. After that, she was sent to the hospital, and until now..."

My brows furrowed as I listened to Butler Warren.

How can a kid be so cruel?!

"To the hospital," I said as I massages my forehead.

That kid...

I even made a fuss a while ago...

Who is going to eat those fruits now?!

"Find who is responsible for this. Make sure her whole family will be educated."

I won't let them live happy life. If the kid is cruel then her parents are cruelest. What you show to a child is what they adopt. A kid surrounding is important, if they have a cruel environment then they would grow up as a bad guy.

"When will I meet him?"

To be honest, I've never seen my fiance's face. It wasn't fair because he knows my face!

"You still won't see him. His Majesty will hire two more personal bodyguards..." He hesitantly said.

"Didn't you say that we will spend time together? How am I going to spend time with three boys?!" Butler Warren froze, his eyes blink then he laugh awkwardly.

"How can be the higher-ups so stupid?" I snorted.

I saw Butler Warren get his phone from his pocket and called someone.

I close my eyes and tried to sleep. Fortunately, after some minutes I fell asleep and was just woken by Butler Warren.

"Young Miss, we're here." I nodded and fixed my dress.

I glance at my dirty heels and take the wipes from my pouch and clean it. Butler Warren went out and called someone.

I waited for Butler Warren to come back. Of course, he knew what he was doing. I took out my phone and saw that our group chat is noisy today, which is not usual.

Well, I want to leave this GC but I don't want to people think I don't have anything to brag about.

I opened it and was expecting to see girls bragging about their boyfriends, clothes, pieces of jewelry, and such.

But to my shock, it was a picture of the man I loathe the most! The most unwanted person in this country!

ThisisVelyShu: I heard he'll stay here for good.

Silvestrine,Lu: Oh! My! Gosh! The president is really back!

Mucho-Cho: Too late! I already saw him a while ago.

Iyanmey: I heard he became so successful in the other countries.

ThisisVelyShu: Yes! Yes! He achieves almost all the awards in there. His name is pretty famous in different countries! Especially when he built the 'The Entangled'.

I put down the phone and massaged my forehead.

How could this be?

Isn't he staying there for good?

He is back...

"Young Miss, seedless girl room is 2399." I nodded and went out after Butler Warren opened the door.

I don't know why but my heart won't calm down since I set foot at the hospital door.

Butler Warren guide me towards seedless girl room. But as we get closer, I can hear voices that are happily talking.

As we get closer it beating and beating faster and it only means bad news!

I knew it.

When Butler Warren said it's room 2399, I definitely feel there is something wrong.

Room 2399 is on the twenty-sixth floor. But not only that, but it's also a VVIP's floor.

There's no way she could afford that. And besides, even though someone helps her, there are no generous high-class people in our country that will help her. Only the high class, the higher officials, and the royal family could afford this VVIP's room.

Butler Warren knocked on the door. The voices faded and only footsteps that are getting closer can be heard.

As the door is slowly open, I feel like my heart stops beating as my breath betrayed me and didn't function well, not letting any air enter my body.

My eyes widened in shock as my hands grip tightly at my dress.

Our eyes met at that moment it feels like the world moves slower than usual as my eyes are looking at the most beautiful eyes I've seen, it is pretty familiar. I saw how the side of his lips slowly arched brought me back to my senses. So, before the door could be wide open, I pulled it so hard that I almost stumbled from closing it and it cause a loud bang.

The door didn't open.

A lot of nurses and doctors glance my way but didn't do anything.

I tried to calm down and breathe properly. I can't believe my own body betrayed me.

Even Butler Warren looked shocked!

"He's back?" He mumbled but it didn't escape from my ear.

"You knew?" I lifted my eyebrow at him as I looked at him.

"Of course, Young Miss! He is Your-" Butler Warren was interrupted when his phone vibrate and at the same time I can hear some noises inside.

Maybe I'll enter? It's not like I knew he is here and stalked him. Besides, I can't make him think that I still have feelings for him because of what I did earlier!

The group chats a while ago are pretty informed enough!

Well, there's no harm in trying. I guess?
