Chapter 44 - Prince (1/2)
”I can't believe this! My to be mentor brought in some person who is cursing me to not become the crown princess. When I finally decided to work hard for it. Anna, call the guards from outside. These people look like some impostors to be spouting such non-sense!” Kim Su Won half sobbed and half gasped.
She was actually exasperated right now. This kid, he knew exactly what was written in her future. Avenues to earn money, seizing the opportunity, this person definitely knew about the novel. The novel's name was right there in his speech. How could she miss it?
But who was this kid? There was no mention of another transmigrator in the book. Was it in the future chapters that she could not read because she transmigrated here? She needed to find out the truth but she also needed time to think and strategize.
Her gut told her this would not be the last time she was going to see this pair. It was better to get rid of them for now. But she was also dying to know their true identity.
Sh*t! If only there were more details written in the book about the time before actual transmigration happened, it would have been so helpful.
Jack Smith was too generic a name, she would not be able to find them. What could she do?
She got up from her seat and started wailing. ”No, this has to be a joke. How did you two even enter the duke's castle?”
She started pacing around trembling a bit, as if she was in fear.
”M-My lady… Please calm down! We are not bad people, we are in the list!” the kid was flustered with such a sudden change in the attitude of the calm girl who was arguing them with her wit a few moments ago.
”Anyone can pose as a Jack Smith. How do I know that you indeed are the people? Do you have any identity card with you?” Kim Su Won probed further for she needed to know who these bastards were.
”I am sorry Lady Whittemore, you might be the lady of this house but you are being very disrespectful to his… my nephew,” the guard like uncle finally spoke up. Kim Su Won's ears perked up. How did that little slip escape her?
An uncle protecting a nephew from an insult like this? This was no ordinary kid. That narrowed down her scope. This was enough information for her.
The Smith kid glared at his uncle. The uncle bowed ever so slightly and his face had an expression of apology, further proving Kim Su Won's theory.
”Well, I will need to apologize for my behavior too. The Whittemore House will send you the decision soon,” Kim Su Won calmed down and set the two out. Anna had brought guards by the time but the two people just gave her a snarl and left in anger.
”What weird people. It felt like they had this sense of entitlement to them,” Anna huffed. For once she had thought her miss was in physical danger. Poor her miss, she cried in terror. If she had known the suspicious people were going to be this rude, she would have called the guards early on.
”That's because they were from the imperial family,” Kim Su Won picked up the family trees of the prominent families in the kingdom and went through the names and ages of the kids.
”I-Imperial family?” Anna was too stunned to speak. What would anyone from imperial family be doing here? It could not have been the crown prince, right? What if this was a test? Did her miss already screw up?
