It's been about three days since the royal banquet but...

" Wha- what's all this?" I asked with the most confused face you can ever make to Maria.

" Miss, these are letters inviting you to different events." Maria said with a straight face.

" Yeah I can see that but why?" I questioned her.

"Are you asking me why they invited you?" Maria replied questioning my question.

"I- forget it. Can you bring me some tea?" I said to her.

" Yes, miss." Maria replied and proceeded to go and make me some tea.

Now I can peacefully think. So all these letters are sent to invite me to different occasions? I went through letters one by one and found the three most unexpected letters.

To be honest I could believe that the sun is as cold as ice than these three families sending me letters. Alright, let's open the first one. It's from the Mcallops family and the envelope is purple. Wait this is from-

Dear Lady Adela,

How are you? I hope you are doing well. If you're asking how am I? I'm also fine. I will get straight to the point. Since our last encounter at the royal ball, I have been thinking about having tea with you sometime. So I want to invite you to the Mcallops estate on 12th Tuesday. I will be happy and grateful if you came my lady.

Yours Sincerely,

Aria Mcallops

[I'm sorry I'm not good at writing letters so please bear with me ]

I'm fucking speechless. Wow like did THE Aria Mcallops invited me to have tea? Ah, she did not have many friends because of her personality since she was the anti-social type. Well, it's not like I have friends. It won't hurt to make one friend at least. Ugh I know I said I won't get involve myself with the main characters but it wouldn't hurt to try? No matter what anyone says I'm going.

Now let's see the second one. Well, it's fully white and this was sent by-

" Miss, I brought your tea." Maria said as she placed it beside me.

"AHH-". I almost screamed because I was so surprised. Maria flinched and asked me

" What happened, miss?" 

"Ah, it's nothing you just surprised me". I answered as I took a sip from my tea and reading the name who sent me the letter as soon as I saw the name, I choked on my tea. What the fuck did I just read?

" OH MY GOSH, MY LADY ARE YOU OKAY?" Maria said shouting as she hurriedly started patting my back.

" Ah yes I'm okay now but can you bring me a handkerchief?" I said to Maria coughing a little. She soon nodded and went to get the handkerchief. But why did this person send me this letter?

Dear Lady Adela,

How are you? I hope you are doing great. I'm fine. Are adjusting well? Since I asked for recommendations on books I would like to invite you to the Eckart estate on 12th Tuesday. I will be extremely delighted if you came.

Yours Sincerely,

Lucas Eckart

[Again, I'm sorry I'm not good at writing letters so please bear with me ]

WHAT THE HECK? Why is he asking me for recommendations on books when he is clearly smart and he wants to invite me? To the Eckart estate? On 12th Tuesday? The same day as Aria? Like hell would I go but wha- what if I get on his bad side? All the years of avoiding would go to waste. Ugh but I really wanna go to Lady Aria's estate.

And the final letter is fully black. What's with these people? Like can't they have the same color? Anyway, it's definitely from the imperial palace. The black envelope with the gold 'V' sign can be only used by the imperial family but it doesn't have the name of the person on the front of the envelope. Soon I saw the door open and see Maria rushing with a handkerchief.

"Miss I apologize for I'm late I couldn't find the handkerchief anywhere." Maria said rushing towards me and giving me the handkerchief.

"It's okay Maria and thank you," I said as I take the handkerchief and wipe my lips. After finally calming down I opened the last letter. Soon after opening it, I took another sip from it but this time not only did I choked on it but also spit it out when I saw the name at the last.

"MISS OH MY GOD ARE YOU OKAY? IS SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE TEA? I WILL CALL THE BARISTA RIGHT NOW" Maria said almost going away again.

" Maria wait nothing is wrong with the tea, it's just that I was surprised by who sent the letter," I said as quickly as I could. Maria finally turned back and came towards me.

"Are you sure miss?" she asked sounding concerned.

"Yes I'm sure Maria so just sit down in front of me" I replied to Maria.

"But miss how could i-" Maria spoke

"Maria sit down" I ordered her and she did. Sometimes I just have to order her.

Dear Lady Vastelline,

How are you? I hope you are really great. I'm also doing excellent if you are asking. Do you remember me? We met at the royal banquet while you were introducing yourself to the emperor and we talked for the first time when you were cursing about Lord Eckart so do you recall now? I'm sure you do. You are annoyed reading this now that you know who is this from right? Well anyway, I said I wanted to continue the conversation since it was fun. So I'm officially inviting you to the imperial palace on 12th Tuesday and if you don't know since you lived in Naithen kingdom, you can't ignore or reject an imperial invite, unless it is permitted by the imperial court for your reason as not accepting it. So you don't have a choice now do you? I bet you are wanting to tear this letter into pieces and throw it. Well, whatever you do you can't ignore it.

Yours Sincerely,

Edward Vandestine

[Also Again, I'm sorry I'm not good at writing letters so please bear with me ]

First of all no I'm not doing great and no I'm not asking. Hah, how could I ever forget you? Yes, I'm fucking annoyed by reading this you asshole. It definitely wasn't fun for me. Ugh, what's with people inviting me to their estate? And even he said 12th Tuesday. I don't even have the energy to be angry at this point. Of course, I know that rule. This motherfucker-. Ah, I guess you already know that I want to tear this letter up and throw it in your face. This is daylight threatening what the fuck?

"Ahhhhh" I sighed.

"Miss is something wrong?" Maria asked me. Ah, I guess I sighed really loudly.

" Well, Maria if you got an invitation from three really important people and on the same day, what will you do?" I asked her with a straight face.

"Well, I'm sure they can't be that important than miss, anyway I would reject them" Maria answered after thinking for a second.

"You don't get me, Maria, they are actually important" I again told her.

"Then miss please tell me who they are so I can have a better idea" Maria again replied sipping on her tea. Well, I guess I have to say it.

"One is from the Mcallops family only Lady, the other one from Sir Lucas of the Eckart family, and another from the crown prince of Vandestine" as soon as Maria heard the names she choked on her tea and started coughing

" Maria are you okay?" I questioned.

"Yes, Miss sorry it's just that I was surprised" Mria replied.

"Ugh see I told you" I spoke while sitting back.

" No wonder you were surprised but anyway you cant reject an imperial invite but it will also be rude to turn Lord Eckart down and rejecting Lady Mcallops may sadden her" Maria said while thinking about it.

" Yes, so what should I do? I can't even reject or go to every place at the same time." I spoke as I kept my hand on my chin.

"I'm not sur- Ah I got it" Maria suddenly stood up.

"Really so what should I do?" I asked smiling. Maybe there is a way to avoid the after all.

"Why don't you just invite them all in here?" Maria said smiling

"Haha invite them where?" I asked.

"Here. In the Vastelline estate. Invite. All of them." Maria said still smiling.

Haha, invite ALL of them here? I rather die than do that but...

Hello my lovely people how are you? See I'm updating regularly. I'm kinda proud of that you know. I finished this chapter in one day and it was on the day after I last updated it. Anyway, I'm not sure but some of you may be confused about all the characters' ages right? If you are here are their present ages-

1) Adela Vastelline- 13 years and 6 months old

2) Maria- 20 years old and 5 months old

3) Aria Mcallops- 13 years and 7 months old

5)Isabella Celton- 13 years and 4 months old

6)Edward Vandestine- 14-year-old

That's it and if you are asking for their father's age it's between 30 to 35.

Hi, lovelies. I'm writing this before updating anyway I just want to tell you guys how crazy this week was. So someone literally copied my work and post it on another website. Yes, you read that right. Nevertheless, I found this out by another author, I'm still not sure what I should do? Like is my work worthy enough to be plagiarism lmao?
