Chapter 5: Yes Father

‘I whisperer in Sky's ear’

“Where is my seat?”

“Fourth from duke right side”

“ Thanks”

Sky then stood right beside the door and Hunter took his seat and sat down quietly.

The only people present on this huge dining table were only Duke JOHANSSON OLIVER HELSTEIN and his wife Duchess VIOLET LILIANA HELSTEIN.

Even though we live in the same house, it's my first time seeing them. The Duke has Long golden hair, a big beard and mustache and golden eyes just like a sun. Even though he is in his sixties, he looks young whereas the Duchess has purple eyes and silver hairs due to inheritance lineage from the Grand duchy of the north.

~clink clank Munch….

‘The whole dining hall was only filled with the klinking of knives,forks and plates. After finishing the hardest dinner I ever did, Duke speak,

“Make sure you remain your best behavior tomorrow and don't cause any trouble”

“ Yes, Father.”

‘Duke took a quick glance and then left the dining hall.

Now only Duchess and I was sitting in the dining hall’

“Are you alright now? I heard you got a fever yesterday.”

“ I'm fine.”

“ Good, make sure you dress properly. Many guests are coming so make sure to follow your father's advice.”

“ Yes.”

“Your siblings will join us during the party. Make sure to greet them first”

“Yes.”

“ Don't try to throw a tantrum. Don't pick fights with anyone until they pick one.”

“ Yes. Yes?”

“ And also make sure to escort your fiance tomorrow elegantly.”

“ Yes.”

‘ Wait whaaaaaaaaaaat? No one told me I have a fiancee?How will I know who she is?’

“ I will leave now. Take care of yourself better.”

She left after saying that.

~Sighhhhhhhh

“ Maaaan. I'm beat.”

“ Shall I bring you dinner in your bedroom my lord!”

“You are the best sky”

~ The morning of the day of the ball.

Everyone is busy preparing for it.

As I was checking out the huge palace, I stumbled upon James who was lying on the floor in front of the kitchen.

“James, you good. Hey, wake up, what happened?”

James spoke as quietly as possible.But before I could hear him, I heard a grumbling sound coming from James' stomach.

“Are you hungry?”

James, embarrassed , replied with a nod.

~after some time

“So are you saying that everyone was so busy at tonight's ball party, they forgot to give you your breakfast.”

James nods.

“Thank god it was simply that. I thought you die or something”

“ I'm sorry”

“ It's fine. Tell me what you were doing? I will help you.”

“ No, it's fine. How can I let the young lord do labor work? My whole family will lose their lives”

“Don't exaggerate it. Let me do something”

After some persistent persuasion, James let me help him in minimal work by transporting goods from the storeroom to the kitchen. Nobody figure it out due to James' handicraft work in making a disguise for me. But Sky figured it out and dragged me to my bedroom to get ready for tonight's ball.
