Frederick De Salvatore/FL dad/Grand duke

Where were you?

Frederick De Salvatore/FL dad/Grand duke

Didn't you get information that you were summoned here?

Frederick De Salvatore/FL dad/Grand duke

Why did you come so late?

Crystal De Salvatore/FL

* Tsk*

Crystal De Salvatore/FL

( Since when did he speak this much?)

Crystal De Salvatore/FL

I deeply apologize for my late arrival, Your Grace

Crystal De Salvatore/FL

I was in the library and lost the track of time and as I didn't inform my maids they didn't know where I was

Crystal De Salvatore/FL

But the moment I got informed I came here

Crystal De Salvatore/FL

But still I deeply apologize once again

Crystal De Salvatore/FL

* Bowed once again*

All of them were shocked to see her acting like this

They all had one thought in mind

Everyone

(Since when did she become so mature?)

Crystal De Salvatore/FL

* Looked at her dad with cold eyes*

Crystal De Salvatore/FL

May I know why I was summoned here?

Frederick De Salvatore/FL dad/Grand duke

* Cold voice*

Frederick De Salvatore/FL dad/Grand duke

The Emperor has summoned us to the palace

Frederick De Salvatore/FL dad/Grand duke

So you better be on your best behavior

Crystal De Salvatore/FL

( Yeah yeah, why else would he remember this daughter of his , if not to warn her)

Crystal De Salvatore/FL

* Calm voice*

Crystal De Salvatore/FL

Rest assured, Your Grace

Crystal De Salvatore/FL

I will not do anything that will bring shame to the family name

Frederick De Salvatore/FL dad/Grand duke

*Surprised seeing how she was replying*

Frederick De Salvatore/FL dad/Grand duke

(The aura around her has changed)

Crystal was about to excuse herself when a high-pitched voice called her out

Juliet De Salvatore/ FL adopted sis

* In a fake concerned voice*

Juliet De Salvatore/ FL adopted sis

Sister are you going to wear these clothes to the palace?

As she said this everyone looked at her clothes

Crystal De Salvatore/FL

Merida De Salvatore/FL mom/Grand duchess

* Angry and shouted*

Merida De Salvatore/FL mom/Grand duchess

Crystal De Salvatore

Merida De Salvatore/FL mom/Grand duchess

Are you trying to show everyone that we don't give you good clothes to wear

Merida De Salvatore/FL mom/Grand duchess

How dare you think about going to meet the Imperial family while wearing such clothes

Fabian De Salvatore/FL 2nd bro

* Sneered*

Fabian De Salvatore/FL 2nd bro

Well, what else can we expect from a troublemaker like her

Fabian De Salvatore/FL 2nd bro

Always trying to ruin our reputation

Crystal De Salvatore/FL

( You little sh*t, when did I do something to ruin your reputation)

Crystal De Salvatore/FL

( If you get to know what that so-called innocent sister does then you will know what ruining reputation actually means)

Crystal De Salvatore/FL

( As*hole)

Crystal De Salvatore/FL

* Calm outside*

Crystal De Salvatore/FL

I am sorry to cut you off , Your Grace

Crystal De Salvatore/FL

But you didn't even give me the opportunity to talk, you just came to the conclusion

Crystal De Salvatore/FL

I was in the library and wasn't informed of our trip to the Palace so I just came here in the clothes I was wearing before

Crystal De Salvatore/FL

if I knew that we have to go to the Palace then I would've worn something more presentable

Crystal De Salvatore/FL

But then again, it's not like you ever give me the chance to explain myself

Crystal De Salvatore/FL

Coming to conclusions before listening to me is your old habit

Crystal De Salvatore/FL

Anyways, I will go to get ready

Crystal De Salvatore/FL

I will take my leave

Crystal De Salvatore/FL

* Bowed and left before anyone could say anything*

Frederick De Salvatore/FL dad/Grand duke

* Shocked*

Frederick De Salvatore/FL dad/Grand duke

( Did she just talk back?)

Fabian De Salvatore/FL 2nd bro

* Shocked*

Fabian De Salvatore/FL 2nd bro

( Since when did she get the guts to cut me off?)

Caspian De Salvatore/FL 1st bro

* Surprised*

Caspian De Salvatore/FL 1st bro

( She was right though, we never listened to her side of the story.....has it always been like this?)

Merida De Salvatore/FL mom/Grand duchess

* Shocked and guilty*

Merida De Salvatore/FL mom/Grand duchess

( I should've listened to her first)

Juliet De Salvatore/ FL adopted sis

* Shocked*

Juliet De Salvatore/ FL adopted sis

( When did she get the nerves to answer.... shouldn't she just keep her head low and listen to whatever mom is saying)

Juliet De Salvatore/ FL adopted sis

( This little bit*h)

On the other side

Crystal De Salvatore/FL

* Smirk*

Crystal De Salvatore/FL

( Never will I ever let them walk over me again)

Crystal De Salvatore/FL

( I will stay low if they don't get on my nerves, but if they decide to say all that nonsense again )

Crystal De Salvatore/FL

( Then I will not stay silent either)

Crystal De Salvatore/FL

( I have been silent for way too long)

Crystal De Salvatore/FL

( But not now)

She then went to her room and after getting ready came out

Only to see her family ready to get in the carriage

Crystal De Salvatore/FL

Juliet De Salvatore/ FL adopted sis

* Grit her teeth while looking at her*

Juliet De Salvatore/ FL adopted sis

(Why is she so beautiful?)

Juliet De Salvatore/ FL adopted sis

( Even when my dress is prettier than her ....then why is she looking better than me)

Juliet De Salvatore/ FL adopted sis

* In a sweet voice*

Juliet De Salvatore/ FL adopted sis

Sister, why don't you sit with us?

Caspian De Salvatore/FL 1st bro

* Cold eyes*

Fabian De Salvatore/FL 2nd bro

* Cold eyes*

Crystal De Salvatore/FL

No, thank you, I am good in the other carriage

Juliet De Salvatore/ FL adopted sis

* Fake sad eyes*

Juliet De Salvatore/ FL adopted sis

Oh.....is it because I am an adopted daughter and don't have noble blood that you are disgusted by me

Juliet De Salvatore/ FL adopted sis

That's why you don't want to sit with me

Juliet De Salvatore/ FL adopted sis

It's..o....ok..I..I unde... understand

Juliet De Salvatore/ FL adopted sis

* Tears falling like water fall*

Frederick De Salvatore/FL dad/Grand duke

* Mad*

Merida De Salvatore/FL mom/Grand duchess

* Mad*

Caspian De Salvatore/FL 1st bro

* Mad*

Fabian De Salvatore/FL 2nd bro

* Mad*

Fabian De Salvatore/FL 2nd bro

How dare you Crystal

Fabian De Salvatore/FL 2nd bro

Why are you hurting her?

Fabian De Salvatore/FL 2nd bro

Can't you see you made her cry

Fabian De Salvatore/FL 2nd bro

Why do you always have to bully her?

Frederick De Salvatore/FL dad/Grand duke

* Was about to interfere as well*

Crystal De Salvatore/FL

* Cold look*

Crystal De Salvatore/FL

2nd Young Master

Crystal De Salvatore/FL

Did I say anything that Juliet has said?

Crystal De Salvatore/FL

No right

Crystal De Salvatore/FL

She was the one who brought up her origin not me

Crystal De Salvatore/FL

So how can you say that I am hurting her

Crystal De Salvatore/FL

The only reason I turned down her offer was because both of us have heavy gowns and if we sit together all of us will get uncomfortable

Crystal De Salvatore/FL

So it's better if we stay in different carriages

Crystal De Salvatore/FL

Like always you will not listen to me and just say whatever comes to your mind

Crystal De Salvatore/FL

Try to process the situation next time rather than barking like a mad dog who doesn't have Senses

Crystal De Salvatore/FL

You are given a brain to use it...not for just a showpiece

Crystal De Salvatore/FL

Anyways you continue barking

Crystal De Salvatore/FL

* Then looked at Juliet who was stunned and her eyes were didn't have any tears*

Crystal De Salvatore/FL

And you continue crying those crocodile tears

Saying this she went into the other carriage leaving behind a shocked and flustered family

Crystal De Salvatore/FL

* Tsk*

Crystal De Salvatore/FL

( Why did I not notice just how annoying all of them are)

Then the carriage started moving
