Taylor and Howard were taking a stroll around the estate when they saw a small group of people standing at a distance away from them. "Isn't that big brother and Damien?" Taylor thought out loud. The moment those words left his mouth, Howard had abandoned his friend and darted in their direction. 'Once a crazy fan, always a crazy fan!' Taylor rolled his eyes and he too jogged to keep up with him. He had watched how Howard had pushed a little girl aside and his heart almost stopped when he…-

Yvonne was not bothered about the boy who had just spoken up, her entire attention was on the crude boy who had insulted and scammed her when she had visited 'Willow's' cafe. "Pie boy!" She murmured in a low voice. All the girls had bowed to wish the other boy but Yvonne was right now in a fierce battle of who would look away first. 'What an annoying and smug face he has!? Makes me want to step on it!' She narrowed her eyes but did not look away. Noticing the weird atmosphere between these two,…

"Why do we need to enter through the back gate like some common thief?" The tall boy with flaming red hair asked as he pushed a low hanging branch away from his face. Right now, two young boys were making their way from the back gate of the Kiron household towards the area of the tea party. The thick trees and thorny bushes around them were making it hard for them to move forward but the other boy did not make a sound as he stepped ahead. "Stop whining, Topher. Just think of this as endurance…

Aleena Kiron watched silently as her mother went back to her table and then turned to face Yvonne. "Yvonne was it? Why don't you join us?" She gestured for her to come to sit with them. Yvonne glanced at her smiling face and then at the table that had no empty seats for her to sit on. 'Either they forgot how to count or this is some immature way of bullying me.' She smiled at the older girl who had made such a stupid offer. "Oh no, Big sister Aleena! How can she sit here when there are no…

"Your little sister looks just like a doll! Makes me want to squish her chubby little cheeks!" The red-headed boy exclaimed when Howard finally let go of his collar. He had been dragged many feet away from the garden that the tea party had been held at. The lush green trees around them provided them with a secluded place for them to talk and at the same time hide from the other kids. When Howard heard his words, he looked at him with unhidden contempt laced in his eyes. "How many times have I…

Yvonne looked at the young boy who was just a few inches shorter than Howard. He had fierce red hair and soft brown eyes, a stark contrast but it did not look bad on him. 'Based on my deductions, this little boy can only be the younger son of the duke, Taylor Tanner.' She recalled the name she had heard about from Sullivan. Though Asmodeus had mentioned that there was a second Ducal family in his story, the name of the Tanner family was never once mentioned in it. He had only focused on the…

'Who can this be?' Yvonne's body felt like a huge boulder whose weight was being borne by her little feet. 'According to my knowledge, no one of higher status should be attending this party. I made sure to double-check my hit list!' She clenched her fists as she followed behind her mother. 'The obsessive Queen won't allow her darling son to leave the palace and that asshole of a Grand Duke is out on a mission.' She tried to mull over the characters in the story who attended the Royal Academy.…

Inside the carriage, the two children were staring each other down as though there would soon be a duel in the very next minute. "I don't care what you want to do at home but learn to behave when we are outside." Howard spoke in a stern voice with his chin held up high. He looked just like a considerate big brother who was teaching his little sister how to conduct herself in public. However, he had no such intentions. 'Everyone knows that Yvonne St. Claire is a child genius but if she opens her…

Paula brought Yvonne to the ice cream store and handed her over to Raylene in safe conditions. "Back already?" Raylene asked when she noticed that they had come back in just a few minutes. Yvonne was fuming inside so she did not hear what her mother had asked so Raylene turned to the maid to get some answers. "Young Miss was scammed by a commoner boy for a slice of pie." Paula bowed her head and answered. Howard and Raylene both turned towards the little girl who was now happily eating the…
