"I’m done this ti," she whispered while looking at the door. She’s trying to pretend to look sleeping , but
"What if that thing wants to kill !!" She was already overthinking about the whole situation. She bit her lower lip, and gripping the blanket tighter. Sweat trickled down her forehead.
"Argh, there’s no ti to do all of this," she said, sighing. She slapped her chubby cheeks and got up from her bed. She tiptoed slowly toward the door and took the broom beside her chair. Slowly, she went behind the door to prepare in case the intruder cos inside her room to kill or poison her or whatever.
Clik, krikkkkkkkk
The sound of the door opening. Olivia closed her eyes and opened them again. Looks like soone is already inside the room. Her heart was beating loudly.
"Oh no!! what if the intruder hear my heart beating?" she whispered in her mind.
"Stop beating so loud," she said in her mind.
She played with her little head in a second. But before she takes a little step, she hears sothing like rummaging through the drawer.
She was stunned. She could clearly see soone rummaging through her drawer, "My belongings!!" Without hesitation,she’s running while lifting the broom to beat the person.
Pakkkk
She swung the broom with all her strength and beat the intruder on the shoulder. However, it was weird that the intruder was sobbing, and also, she was very familiar with that sobbing sound.
Her hand froze mid-air.
The sobbing sound was painfully familiar.
Her eyes widened.
No way...
She dropped the broom from her hand and shouted
"YOUR HIGHNESS," she’s screaming slowly and running to close the door and turn on the light.
She was right that the person was Avelvion. He, while crying, clutched his shoulder where the broom had struck him and glared at Olivia.
"Have you lost your mind?" he snapped.
Olivia blinked at him, her brows knitting together . Her eyes locked on his hand. He is holding sothing like a biscuit and so candy. Olivia’s eyes widened in surprise, and she slapped her forehead in realization.
"What happened to this boy?" she whispered while taping her cheeks.
"What are you doing in my room at the middle of the night?" she asked Avelvion.
Avelvion just stared at her in fury, then looked away.
"Don’t tell he’s trying to set up," Olivia wondered, while staring him up and down.
He like a spoiled boy. Olivia kept trying to talk to him and ask him many tis, but he never answered a single one of her questions. He just stared at her and looked away.
"Are you robbing ?" she asked, and imdiately, he turned his face to with gritted teeth and spoke,
"Rob you?" he scoffed. " Don’t flatter yourself. I’m rich enough to take what’s yours, lowly maid." With a frustrated face.
"Then, what exactly are you doing sneaking in my bedroom ?" she’s asking him again with a thin smile.
He said nothing and backed away.
"Do you know when soone breaks into soone’s room, it’s called robbing?" she said to him with a piercing eye.
Avelvion then said to her, "I’m a prince, so no one even dares to report ," in a harsh tone.
Olivia tightened her jaw and said, "f*ck this hierarchy system." She smiled with a serious tone and pushed him to the wall so hard that her one hand leaned into the wall and said,
"Even though you are the prince, it doesn’t an you can do whatever you like to ," she said with dead eyes. Avelvion startles and pushes Olivia back.
"Then, I will tell the duke about you sneaking into the back garden," he countered, smirking. She flinches, chuckles, and tries to breathe in and out.
This damn prince,
she slandered in her mind.
"Go on," shes say and folded his arms tightly, trying to hiding his frustration.
"I will tell the duke about you trying to sexually harass while I’m asleep," she then walked into her bed, trying to threaten him
take thatttt
Olivia whisperingin her mind. Avelvion’s eyes widen as she is startled and gets up.
"I have never do sothing like that ," he scread. Olivia raised her eyebrow and leaned her back against the wall. She said, "I don’t know," both hands lifted, giving her a look that said, ’don’t bla .’ Avelvion gave her a stunned look. He scratched the back of his head, hesitating, with a baffled expression.
"Look, it’s not like I’m going to sneak or rob you, but I’m just going to give you this, that ti you drop this." He handed the biscuit and so candy to her hand, while his face looked so red and pouting, then looked away.
Olivia has no idea what he talks about. She thought that he hated her so much that he played a prank. And also try to threaten her.
"Then can I go now?" He stared at Olivia, then rolled his eyes before he got up.
Before he turned her head, soone called him.
"Your Highness, Your Highness’’ they heard the nanny’s voice echo outside her room.
"Looks like your nanny searched you," Olivia muttered.
Avelvion then opened the door and walked away from her room. Even though Olivia can’t see his face, she knows how Avelvion looks at the nanny. The nanny looked puzzled as she looked at , then looked again at Avelvion, who was far away.
The nanny then apologized to her, saying,
"Sorry to disturb you."
Then she looked at my hand, which was holding the biscuit and candy. She smiled.
" His Highness... has always seed so lonely" the nanny said slowly
"he spends most of his ti alone in his room.," she talked carefully and take her handkerchief.
Olivia can see the nanny’s eyes welling with tears. And then she continued.
"But when he heard a story from Ophilia about her having a friend who shared everything with her, she made his highness looking forward to see all of you." She looked blank.
He likes to play with you, but he doesn’t know how to express himself. So he threw a tantrum," she sighed.
"This morning, he was crying so hard when he entered his room. So I’m trying to calm him down.
She spoke with a frustrated tone, "Before I reached him to calm him down, he actually already cald down, then started to check his drawer for so long, and then went out."
"Since I always give him advice on how to befriend soone. First, I’m at ease and optimistic that things may turn out well. But he’s been gone too long, which makes worry. So I searched every corner for his figure, but did not see it," she gasped while crossing her hand. A thin smile appears on his lips.
"I can feel his presence in this room, as expected," she turned her gaze to Olivia, who looked so touched by her story. Olivia nodded as she listened to her story about Avelvion.
She dropped her head and grinned, then suddenly tears burst in her eyes. Olivia stunned. She patted her back gently to calm her down.
"I’m sorry to make you see like this," she sneezed while looking at her hand. Not long after that, she excused herself to go back.
Clackkk
"Did she think I’m that stupid?" Olivia rolled her eyes. Then try to reach her chair beside her. She opened the candy wrapper. After she opened the wrapper, there was a piece of paper.
"As expected," she smiled slyly and read the letter.
Actually,I already read about this scene when I was in my original world. The prince’s nanny, who is always beside him, is one of the people who manipulate him into doing weird things and abuse him when she has ti alone with Avelvion. She brainwashes Avelvion’s mind that his parents will never love him because he is an illegitimate child of the emperor." Olivia wondered and zoned for a second.
This was what eventually turned him into a madman by the ti he was twenty five.," she said in bluntness.
"But as far as I rember, this plot begins 1 year later before Ophlia saves Javien, but why has it beco too fast? Has the story begun to change? " She was confused and trying to rember the plot.
Then she continued to read the letter from the prince, but suddenly her eyes widened, and she automatically covered her mouth.
Soone was standing behind the door... listening.
To be continued.....
