Yvonne had yet to comprehend and compile the large amount of information that she had received about this tutor yet now she was already being rejected? 'What? Why?' She raised her brows and tilted her head as she gazed at the man who was intently gazing back at her. Rutherford was confused when he heard the contradictory statement from his friend. "What do you mean, Des? Did you not just call Vonna your student?" He interrogated with a stern expression forming on his face. Yvonne could notice…-

The boys all frowned when they saw the overly familiar emblem painted on the side of the black carriage. Even the carriage was one that they had seen on multiple occasions so much so that they were completely confident of who might be inside. The carriage soon came to a halt and everyone was waiting for the person inside it to eventually step out. 'Why is he here?' The Tanner boys and Damien furrowed their brows with the same question in their minds. However, Howard was having a different…

The thing that Howard was most worried about came to pass when it was time for him to begin his journey to the Royal Academy. When the butler had informed them that the carriage had arrived to pick him up, the family moved to the entrance of their house. The fresh early morning breeze made Yvonne smile as she stepped outside the door. 'I feel like I am back on the runway with all eyes on me.' She rolled her eyes when she recalled how the servants were gaping at her in these clothes. The young…

The next morning, Yvonne woke up when the door of her bedroom was being knocked on continuously. 'Who the heck is disturbing my peaceful sleep!?' She groggily rubbed her eyes and turned in the direction of the incessant knocks. Before her mind could start functioning, she glanced at the windows and noticed that it was still dark outside. 'There better be a fire in the hose and they want everyone to evacuate!' She groaned as only that reason could justify being woken up at this ungodly hour where…

The entire evening, Yvonne spent reading the scores of 'Tear of our Love' in hopes of getting another vision which could uncover some of the mystery behind the musical piece. Sadly, nothing of that sort happened to her again and she had to give up on her absurd attempts. 'Ever since I moved to this world, I have encountered such ridiculous things that I have stopped doubting the authenticity of anything.' She sighed at her sorry state and kept the folder away from her sights. 'I just believe the…

When Yvonne heard that her answer was correct, she sank into a deep dilemma about what she should do next. 'An aide like Powell and Limo? That's quite tough now, isn't it?' She surmised when she recalled how these men became the aides in the first place. While Butler Powell's family had been associated with the St. Claire's for generations, producing the next heir who would be trained to assist the heir of the St. Claire family. The situation with Butler Limo vastly varied from that of Butler…

Listening to his student's meaningful questions, Sullivan Samed finally figured out the direction in which she had been trying to lead him. "The process of finding a cure can start only after the symptoms are properly identified and studied." He Buttered to himself as he began answering her questions. Yvonne gave him a silent nod, encouraging him to move further in his deductions. 'He did not need much to get on the right track.' She applauded and recognized the wit of the man dubbed as the most…

'The third plague that has yet to occur!' Yvonne remarked in a stupefied manner. Her eyes widened in shock when she remembered this plot arc which was extremely crucial for the character development of the female lead of the story, Hilda. Marquess Samed looked at her dumbfounded expression and wondered what had got her so surprised and agitated. "Miss St. Claire, do you mind sharing what has taken your attention away from the class?" He inquired in a mocking tone. 'How should I tell him that if…

"The First great plague" Marquess Samed heard her read out the name of the chapter for her next lesson and then nodded his head. "Let us start with the next topic which you had requested in our last class." He announced and then began to teach her about the plagues. "The first great plague that devastated Rosenhyde occurred during the reign of previous King Greggor." He started and glanced at Yvonne. Yvonne gave him a quick nod to prove that she was paying attention to what he was saying.…

Marquess Samed's eyes which had widened at the beginning were now rolling without restraint after he heard her entire sentence. "A dream?" He gawked at her as though she was a patient who had just escaped the mental asylum. 'Now he's gonna think that I'm crazy!' Yvonne lamented for her image which kept dropping in her tutor's eyes. Yet there was nothing she could do as what she had said was the truth. The first time she read that music score and then played it, she was moved to tears. The…
