Today we receive a summon from His Majesty. Right now Father and I are in our way to the Palace. As we both fear that Dear Mother would be merciless towards Sc.u.m Prince, we deemed that was better that only both us attend this meeting.

I can even feel the taste of freedom!

...

"... and that is why I think you should still be the Queen, while JuliChan can be the second wife what you think?"

What do I think? I think you are sh*itting me right now! There is N O W A Y I will marry this Sc.u.m Prince and have to endure for the rest of my life this pair of dogs.

It is good that h.e.l.l training made me know how to cover my inner feelings with an impeccable smile mask and how to control my body language, otherwise the face of our King would be disfigured by now. As I imagined me plummeting his handsome middle age face I answered the King with the most gentle voice I could summon

"Your Majesty, allow me to politely refuse your "kind" intentions. It is not that I look down in the royal family or the prince (in fact I do look down on him), but that I think this marriage will not add any positive marks to the kingdom. First of all, everybody in the kingdom knows that Miss Julia is His Highness lover and that he is thoroughly disgust about me. Do you think that married to the same man could we live peacefully? Do you think your son will let me have a good life in the palace? Furthermore, is not like the Crown Prince will lose my family support (lie) as he is a good friend of my Elder Brother. If His Majesty is worried about Julisama etiquette and studies to be a future Queen, she still has time to learn until His Highness becomes the King. And I"m sure as someone that His Highness chose she must be amazing in all regards"

"It is as my daughter said Your Majesty, besides the break-up, was brought up by the royal family and as my daughter did not commit something that would bring shame to the Royal household, I must say that this is unfair to her. The Royal Family will leave this matter unscathed, while my poor daughter is now depressed beyond words about the betrayal she suffered. How can she marry in the future, My King? How many years did she spend devoting herself to His Highness? I hope that you will release her from this suffering and help me console her"

Father said that with such emotion that even I believed that I"m miserable. Clap clap clap. What great actor you are Father!! Let me help you. I will pretend that I"m trying not to cry and stay strong. Let"s sell miserable! Pity me! I want an Oscar for our Father-Daughter performance!

"Prime-Minister, this is not true right? Cecile made an attempt to Julia"s life"

Go tear make your job. Make my voice tremble in the beginning.

"Y-Your Highness, please don"t slander me! Do you have any proof of it? I don"t even know in which building she studies how can I push her?"

"Julia told me that you ordered your followers to push her!"


"To think you would discredit me just because of her words. You"re taking this to far Prince Albert. I beg Your Majesty to investigate this matter, not only to prove my innocence but to punish those who hurt our future Queen"

I don"t believe that this overbearing prince doesn"t know who did. Even if you want to splash dirty water on me it will not work.

"No need Cecile-chan, I believe in you. Is a pity that you could not become part of the family. Fumu~ as compensation for my son"s behavior I will reward you with one thousand gold coins and a wish what you think?"

"Wait, Your Majesty, do you know all the problems your son made to our family because he wanted to break this engagement? I summoned all the losses that he caused along the years in this dossier please have a look"

I think I just saw a sign saying Evil Profit MODE ON above my Father"s head. Must be my illusion.

Look, although still majestic I can see His Majesty hands are trembling slightly. Crown Prince, don"t start to slowly retreat, this is your fault you know.

"I see. How about 50 thousand gold coins and a request?"

"A million gold coins and a request"

"Half a million and a request is the maximum I can give you"

Actually, we would have settle for half of the amount. You sure are generous His Majesty!

Poor King, you look like you just age 5 years, worry not your future daughter-in-law will cause you more headache from now on, after all, what is a Female Lead without problems? An extra is the answer.

"Deal"

"What is your request Miss Cecile?"

Didn"t you get over our pa.s.s affection too fast Your Majesty? Not that I care though.

"I am planning to open my own conglomerate and hope that the royal family won"t interfere with it"

Yes, I only hope you don"t screw with me.

"Ho are you going into business ojou-chan? May I know what business you are focusing on?"

~absolutely not your old fox~

"This is a surprise Your Majesty, but when I open my business I will surely send my products to Your Majesty and Her Majesty and I hope both of you can enjoy them"

"That"s a pity! But I"ll gladly use the products made by Cecile-chan. Well, I will grant your request. No members shall interfere with your business. Unfortunately, I cannot accompany you more as I have some memorials to go through. I hope that you have a smooth start Cecile-chan"

Saying so the King dismissed us and ask for the Crown Prince to stay in the study.

Fufu~ I think that went pretty well. Now my DIY based empire can be born!
