Howard just stared at her and tried to gauge what her plan this time was. The siblings were never close because of many reasons but mostly because Yvonne was a two-faced little demon who always put the blame on him whenever she made mischief. The adults could never believe that the innocent and angelic Yvonne could cause trouble and hence it was always the poor big brother who was punished with no fault of his own. At first, when he was told that there would be a new baby in the house, he too was…-

Amarthea, Capital city of Rosenhyde. The two-day journey went away in the blink of an eye. But Yvonne had to struggle for the most part of it because she was not used to the bumpy roads and the excessive shaking of the carriages. 'I'm just glad I did not hurl.' She rubbed her bulging tummy in circles. She peeked out the window and took in the sight of the capital city. Just like how Asmodeus had described in the script, it was gorgeous and breathtaking. The streets were wide enough for…

In the middle of the night, a large carriage was speeding away from the St. Claire Earldom. "Brother, will father be mad that we did not complete the mission that was assigned to us?" Frit asked the only other person inside the carriage. "I'm sure he'll understand. After all, he was the one who called us back." He waved his hand nonchalantly at Frit. "Also, you can stop calling me brother now. We are alone here." He smiled and Frit scratched his head in embarrassment. "But I feel that 'Brother'…

While Yvonne was being carried back to her room by her father, the conversation continued between the two children back in the cottage. "Who's the miss that has disappeared?" Frit curiously asked the girl. "Is it the daughter of the Earl?" Without waiting for her response, he asked another question. "Aren't you being rude right now?" She pouted at him. When she saw his confused face, she explained her previous remark. "You haven't even introduced yourself yet and you keep asking so many…

Yvonne was hunched over when she saw the little girl inside do the same exact thing as she did in the dream. 'She really offered water to a boy who just drowned!' Her shoulders trembled as she laughed while covering her mouth. Shaking her head in ridicule, she looked back at the scene unfolding with the two main characters of the story. The boy coughed and shook his head when he was offered a glass of water by the little girl before him. 'Is she the one who saved me?' Frit wondered as he stared…

'Mr. Toone is such a nice guy. He was kind enough to offer me much needed medical attention. My back still hurts because of that child.' A certain young lad walked out of the physician's room and made his way towards the stables. 'Let's just finish the mission and go back home! I miss big brother!' He sighed as he walked ahead. Before he could step further, he noticed a moving figure at a certain distance away from him. He vigilantly watched as the small figure stood up and carefully placed a…

'Why am I here when all I wanted was to stay away from this place!' Yvonne felt like kicking herself when she found that she was in the vast garden behind the mansion. Pressing the fingers that had just stopped bleeding, she exhaled loudly. She looked up at the sun that would occasionally hide behind the passing clouds. 'Did you have something with bringing me to come here? You want me to save your precious character?' She stared at the sky and glowered. The sun was right overhead and it would…

After her scrumptious birthday breakfast, Yvonne excused herself and went back to her room. She lazed around for a few hours but soon she got bored and decided to explore the huge mansion. She asked Mrs. Jacinth to carry on with her work so that she might wander around peacefully. After asking a maid for the directions, Yvonne ambled to the library first to look at the collection of books in which she could learn more about this world. 'This place looks great!' She marveled at the large and…

Yvonne woke up after a good night's sleep and rubbed her sluggish eyes. "Young miss, let me help you get dressed." She jerked up when she heard Mrs. Jacinth's voice in the room. She looked around and found the elderly maid standing by the door. "How long have you been there?" Yvonne questioned after calming herself. "It's been about an hour, miss." Mrs. Jacinth walked up to the bed and helped her up. 'She's been watching me sleep for an hour now? That's just creepy!' She cringed at that…

Yvonne sat in her room after she had said goodbye to her new parents whom she treated more like her colleagues. Mrs. Jacinth had bathed her and helped her change into a cute and frilly nightgown. Yvonne was already used to getting massages from her maids so she wasn't all that embarrassed when it came to being naked in front of her nanny. Moreover, she was now a four year old child who had nothing to be ashamed of. "Four years old… Tomorrow I will turn five." She looked at the ceiling as she…
