Chapter 64 – Opportunity

The Imperial Family was always moving and busy. Each palace had its distinctive owner, and employees were obliged to move in unison for each master.

“Oh, I’ll help.”

Trisha snatched the feather-duster from the maid’s hand. The maid was startled and tried to find the duster again, but Trisha had already brought a chair and climbed onto it with her feet.

“You are ordered to stay at the palace and not to work.” The maid spoke with difficulty.

“You’re not even a maid at the moment, you’re a kind of a guest … don’t do such a nasty thing.”

The 17-year-old girl, who lost her parents in a terrible incident, went out to help people around her rather than being in despair.

When Trisha first came, rumors of the incident had already spread, and everyone had avoided touching it like a boil, but one day Trisha forced herself between them.

“I can’t stay here and do nothing. This is how I feel more comfortable.”

How can a child be so thoughtful? The maid admired in her heart.

It had already been more than a week since Trisha came to the Imperial Palace’s star palace. A separate palace for greeting guests and where employees were staying. It was a separate palace from the main palace where Lucas stayed. The streets were very close, but the purpose was completely different.

“Anyway, Trisha.”

“It’s harder for me to stay still. I’m telling you.”

When the Crown Prince got informed of Trisha’s sad story, he made an order to let her stay at the annex until the situation clears up. The servants and maids, who were in charge of heavy work, seemed reluctant to hear that the survivor of the unfortunate incident was coming over, but now everyone cheered for Trisha.

“When we do our job as a maid, we are all excited.” Trisha was bubbly.

“Yes, Trisha.”

Then, Mrs. Margaret approached. The maid gave her a blatant glance. Trisha smiled at Mrs. Margaret.

“I’m sorry Mrs. Margaret, it was me who asked to do it, so please don’t scold her”

Mrs. Margaret smiled helplessly at Trisha.

“I feel awkward about doing nothing.”

Her red eyes glowed with a troubled light. Mrs. Margaret was like Trisha’s mother. She had no children, and she felt pity for Trisha. Perhaps, that little girl was deliberately overdoing herself because she wanted to forget the shocking incident.

“I’m staying here for a while with the grace of the Crown Prince, but I want my share.”

It wasn’t just the memories of her past life that Trisha had regained. Prior to her return, Trisha knew her character better than anyone else as “Trisha” who had been friends with Lucas for a long time.

Lucas was a man with an infinitely self-centered and narrow world. For him, the terrible events and the disastrous events that took place in reality were further stories than the myths in the book.

“I haven’t seen the Prince in person, but… it’s already been a great favor.”

And as Trisha expected, Lucas only let her stay in the annex, never met nor showed interest. Lucas had neither experience nor wisdom to sympathize with such an event. Besides, Lucas thought the misfortune was dull. She had to be indifferent.

“Trisha, raise your head.”
