After his father had left him in the dining room, Felix had stood still for more than ten minutes, thinking if he had made the best decisions that were required of him. When he had been thinking about stepping down from the competition, he hadn't thought much about the consequences of his actions. Truly, he had thought about how his actions would bring forth disadvantages to him and he had thought that he would be okay about everything. But when his father had been lecturing him again, Felix had taught about the words the older man had spoken and nearly groaned after his father had gone. After he thought about it and even thought about it again, he shrugged and turned away from the dining room. When one of the servants had asked him what he wanted for breakfast and where he would like to be served, Felix had told the maid not to worry about him. All he wanted right now wasn't for but how to be alone with his thoughts at a place he knew that no one would be able to disturb him one bit

"Hey, boy. Come and get daddy a cigarette from one of the policemen you usually get it from, will you?" One of the men in the prison cell said to the young boy that Lu thought looked like Felix. Lu watched as the young man opened the door to the next cell room and none of the police on duty ssir anything. Corrupted bujch if people, she thought and shook her head. She knew that if it was one of the lower class prisoner like herself that had committed such an atrocity, they would have screamed their intestines out on her. But no, they wouldn't say a word now because the big shots were involved. The big shots were people who were influential that had been caught in cases that they couldn't get out from. They were the big big folks that even Lu in all her career years feared. The young ones among them were the generation of what she could refer to as the future of the country since their fathers or mothers were men of high status.These types of big folks, even though they were prisoner

“What? How did the prince find out what?” Lu repeated.“Stop faking it Lu. The prince already knows who you are. How did he know? Why the hell did you have to tell him?” Sir John half yelled at her.Lu was shocked and that’s when everything clicked to her. The main reason why Sir John had not processed her bail was because he knew already and he was angry at her for allowing him to know. But she had no idea how he knew anything of this at all. “You can’t blame me for that.” Lu said after some minutes.“Then who should we blame? Who did I give the damn mission to? I remember giving it to you because you seemed fit to do it. But who knew you were just going to mess it all up for me.” Sir John said, his veins popping on his forehead.He was angry at her. Angry was an understatement. If he had other words to describe how he was feeling right now,he would have used it. He did not expect Lu to betray him his way. He had trusted her, gave her all she wanted, given her the biggest mission an

“I ruined the life of the only man I had ever truly loved” Lu said as a tear escaped the jail of her eyes and others followed in quick succession. She couldn’t just forget the look on Felix’s face as the cops came for her. She had never seen him like that. He looked utterly broken like a sad child. He couldn’t bring his self to look at her, not even a glance. She knew that, that image will forever not only hunt her but Judge her. You know when someone offends, it’s easier to blame that person but when it’s all your fault….the pain comes in one billion folds. And that was how she had been feeling since she got into this cell but what hurt her so deep when ever she remembered the look on Felix’s face was that…she was responsible. I did that to him she told her self as she sobbed hard. She found out that she has truly loved him and this was not because of his royalty, fame or money….but because he was amidst all that royalty was a man who had the most beautiful heart she had ever known
