Chapter 71: Council party 1
Two weeks later;Laura strolled down the steps at a calculated pace. Moving elegantly, she looks nothing less to that of a princess. She is dressed in a beautiful wedding dress. The dress which flowed freely onto the ground, had its train sweeping the floor. Instead of the classic long sleeve, it was sewn to be short sleeved instead. Her hair was styled in a bun and in her hands was a bouquet of flowers."You look beautiful darling." Says her mother. Laura only gives her a smile. She looks towards her father to see a warm smile on his face. "Are you ready?" Her father asks. Without any delay, they were out of their house and heading into their carriage. Mrs Parson continuously stares at her daughter. It was like she was in awe. To see her only daughter getting married made her emotional.When they arrived at the church, she stared at the qqqatall building. Flowers were arranged at the entrance and petals were sprinkled on the ground. It all looked very beautiful. She links her arms w

Chapter 72: Council Party 2
Laura was definitely not paying attention to what Ciara was saying. Her mind was on Kilan who just arrived with a woman she knew too well. Ciara, who noticed this, looked to where Laura's attention was.She then saw that Laura was staring at Councilman Duran who arrived with Kamillah Saline."Laura, are you ok?""Yes, I am." Laura had a grimace on her face. And here she was worried about him and he was here, holding hands with some woman. "That's Councilman Kilan Duran, he's part of the council." Ciara informed her."I know." Laura said with a forced smile."And she is Kamillah Saline. As far as I know, she's the advisor to Sir Mackenzie, the head of the council."Laura stared at the woman that had a contagious smile on her face. She looked at her from top to bottom. She had a pretty face, that's for sure, and her shoulder length hair bounced perfectly. The dress she wore fit her perfectly."I know." Ciara gives her friend a dumb look. "So why are you staring at them like that?" "I

Chapter 73: Council Party 3
“Once again, I'd like to say a big thank you to everyone for attending this small gathering of mine. I hope we have many more of these, Cheers!“ Quoted Sir Philips as he raised his champagne filled glass in the air.A synonymous cheer filled the air, soon enough the guests started to dive into another conversation with each other.“Did you come alone Ronald? I haven't seen you talking to anyone yet."“No, I am here alone. Why do you ask?""Nothing, I just haven't seen you speak to anyone yet."“There's no one in particular I'd like to talk to. Everyone here has their own group to merge with, excluding me and you of course."“Yes, as always.“ She said with a pleasant smile. On the other side of the party, Kilan had noticed Laura between the small sparse of people. Truthfully, he wouldn't have expected to see her here, she had no business at a party like this, but he concluded that it was all because of her parents.It's been over two weeks since he last saw her. And he wondered what ha

Chapter 74: Introductions and Jealousy
Laura was seated in a carriage sent by Kilan. Since he was the one who invited her and she had no idea where the council's club was, he sent a carriage to pick her up. Laura was a little bit excited, yet she was nervous. She was happy that she was going to spend the entire afternoon with him, but it was going to be at the council's club. A place where all of the council members will be. A place where every eye that laid on her would scrutinise her in one way or another.'Was this dumb? She accepting to meet him at the club. They could have met anywhere else other than there, but of course she had to say yes.”Wow, lady Laura." The rider announced. She nodded even when she knew that he wouldn't be able to see her. She peeped out of the window to see a very beautiful two storey mansion. Of course, it was just like her own club, only with a dash of elderly touch.'You can do this Laura. You've been through worse things than this.' She said to herself and finally alighted from the carria

Chapter 75: Letters
Laura's day ended nicely. After a very interesting tour around the mansion with Kilan, she now found herself back at where she was earlier that day, standing beside the carriage Kilan sent.”Thank you Kilan, I had an amazing time. The most I've had for a long time.” There was a radiant smile on her face and her eyes shone with glea.”You're welcome Laura. I should be the one thanking you. I haven't had this much fun at the club. And it's all thanks to you."”You're welcome Kilan." She replied. They shared a quick but heart-felt laugh.”I'm looking forward to spending another spectacular day with you Laura. Seriously, I am going to start hatching activities we can have together.””Now that would be too much. But I'm also looking forward to spending more time with you.” She then climbed into her carriage."Goodbye Laura.”"Goodbye Kilan." He then shut the door of the carriage. The horses neighs and they started to move out of the club's premises.Kilan headed back into the mansion to lo

Chapter 76: Letters 2
Isabelle definitely didn't want to stay any longer in Devon. In fact, she doesn't even know what plan she was going to execute here. It's been over a month, and there has been nothing for her to do to help her brother. She was starting to think that her brother was right. It was foolish for her to come here. But there was no going back now.All she could hope for right now is their plan with Gwen. Although it has to be executed slowly, it was still better than nothing.She was in the store room, arranging some of the items in it. The bags of flour, and other food items that were stored in bags, utensils, glassware, etc. The glassware was placed on a shelf, far away from harm's way. When she was done, she brought out a piece of paper to write on.She had received Laura's letter today, and she wanted to send a reply now that she was less busy and out of sight.Dear Laura;”First of all, I am doing alright, no need to be bothered about me. Secondly, I can't believe you've gone through s

Chapter 77: Scott helping Isabelle
”What else is on the list?” Scott asked. He was right beside Isabelle, of course maintaining the three feet rule. He was carrying at least four bags, and it seemed that they weren't even halfway done.”Let me see." She scanned the paper before looking up at Scott."Just a couple more.''She held two bags, one in each hand. Scott let out a sigh. He did foresee this, but he still did it anyway. Anything is worth it in the game of love.”And by a couple more you mean?" He asked,”About ten more things to grab.” He groaned loudly that some of the passersby gave him a strange look.”I know family members are coming over, but all this is too much.” He complained.”I didn't beg you to come with me, did I?””You should be glad I followed you Belle, you wouldn't have been able to do all of these.” He said, signalling to the bags he carried.”So I should be thanking you?””It would be the nicest thing to do.” She rolled her eyes. He was such a dork. She didn't beg him to come with her, but she w

Chapter 78: Ella's special shoes.
When they got back to the palace, Isabelle was completely exhausted. But she could head to bed yet, she still had tons of work to do. ”You came back early?” Martha said in surprise when she saw Isabelle strolling the kitchen hallway with tons of bags. Martha collected a few from her."Thanks Martha. I had a little help along the way.” ”Good thing, we have to get everything ready quickly.””What is so special about today?””Nothing, but very close relatives are visiting and there must be no mistakes.””Yes Martha, but you have to be calm. You can't be worrying yourself every time at this age.””Don't worry about me, I have been through worse.””Alright, but everyone has a limit." They got to the kitchen, where the chef and a few maids were already there.”Finally you're back with what I need. For once you did something right.” The man uttered.Isabelle's face turned into a frown. 'So she has never done anything right before? With everything the man has made her go through?'"Chop! ch

Chapter 79: Risky plan
After giving Princess Ella her precious shoes, Gwen left the royal chambers with a satisfied grin on her face. The first phase of the plan was complete. It was very easy to carry out. In order to get close to the royal family and hopefully the king, Gwen had to start with the easiest member, The princess. The plan was Lisette's idea. Every three months, unused items of the royal members and its workers were collected and dumped into the incinerator room. Now, the maids who have been assigned to princess Ella a couple of times know what to do, and what not to do, and that included that those particular shoes could not be trashed, even though they barely fit her.So Lissette cooked up this plan.

The second phase is much longer and is going to be tedious. Trying to get into the princess. If this

Chapter 80: Relatives arrival
Two carriages pulled into the palace grounds. The guards who were aware of their very much anticipated guests, opened the carriage doors for the guests to alight.A middle aged woman comes into sight. Lifting her silk gown up, she goes down the steps of the carriage with an air of elegance surrounding her. The sun gives her olive gold gown a brighter shade. Her hair is tied and is covered by a colour slightly similar to olive gold. Her daughter comes out next with a big grin on her pretty face. The young teenager steps out wobbly, but lands gracefully on her feet. Her pink feathery gown had gotten in her way and she tripped on it. ”Can you stop acting immature? Act like a lady for once.””I'm sorry mother." She apologised. The smile on her face faltered after her mother's scolding.From the other carriage, a man and a young man have already stepped out. The elder man goes over to the hospital and the young man with a grimace trails along. He is quite good-looking. A nice chiselled fa
