"What the fuck?" Mia choked out her puffs.
"Language, Lil Bean." Steven calmly continued his lunch.
"Dad, tell me it's a prank."
"It's not."
"Dada."
"Yes, Lil bean." He blinked innocently.
"Tell me it's s a joke, pleaseee!" Mia begged.
"It isn't. Pack your things. You are leaving tomorrow."
"I am not. Why should I go there? I don't even know him erm erm I mean our President, so I won't go."
"I am moving to City B. It's Xuan's special day and we need to plan things."
"Dad, but we still have 2 months time." Mia pleaded.
"No. It's been long since I visited. And to add up, I have been assigned to train the commandos in city B military camp. So, I am leaving tonight.'
" It's self-assigned work." Mia mumbled with a huff.
"Bro and Puffin will be here so I won't leave this place."
"Your brother is accompanying me. Even though Brown empire's headquarters is City A, don't forget city B is our hometown. So he is planning to strengthen our empire there. It would just take around 2 months for him and he will be leaving with me tonight."
"And Puffin?" Mia looked Elisa who was still figuring out her reason.
"Ohh, she is being transferred again back to city B. It's just been 3 months she got transferred here, City B bureau has requested her to go back and there are some special cases to handle. So," Steven shrugged his shoulders.
"Ok, fine. I will stay in the dorm. After all, interns are given dorms in the hospital." Mia didn't lose.
"Sorry, Lil bean. But that guy I mean Felix Theodore Finn, I mean our current president is one of my closest friends and I have already agreed to his offer." With an agonised face, he continued,
"It's ok. I will apologise to him. I would look bad that's all." He sighed deeply.
"It's a huge trick. Isn't it?" Mia glared at her father.
She knew her father was cruel but this level was just unimaginable.
With a sad face, he mumbled,
"It is not a huge trick."
With a grin, he continued,
"It's a trap. A huge trap."
Her blood boiled.
"So you wanna," Before he could continue, she yelled
"How can I go against the country's president? I am going." With that, Mia stormed towards her room. How could she dare to reject the president's call?
As soon as she left, steven chuckled out loud.
"Its fun to irritate her."
"Dad but are you sure about your plan?" Elisa asked fear bruised all over her face!
"Don't worry. I am sure she has feelings for him. Thank god, that island show worked out. They both will end up together." He consoled her.
"They have to end up together." He muttered under his breath.
"You mean?" Elisa frowned.
"Nothing Nothing. You just go and calm her down."
With a nod, Elisa left the place. She still had to calm her little vixen to behave.
...
"Mia. My dearest muffin."
"Get lost." Mia yelled while galumphing her wardrobe.
"Listen to me." Elisa pleaded.
"What do you to tell? To behave properly blah blah and everything. Just get lost. Or else get ready to break your own bones."
With a deep sigh, Elisa walked out.
Lumping all her clothes on the floor, she pounced on the bed.
'Argh, what's wrong with you?'
'Even he stays there just ignore him.'
'You didn't try to murder him, right? All you did was just ditching.'
'Ohh yeah, isn't it like Men like privacy and he is an elite blah blah one so of course, he would be having his own mansion.'
'Yes, Mia. Yes! He would be having his own mansion just like every crown prince. Let's not worry.'
Her day ended in vain. All she did was think and think.
Coming to city A, was still the second-worst decision in her life. First, of course, was joining that stupid island show. All in all, to her meeting Ian was the worst experience for some unknown reasons.
...
Next day.
"Young Miss, Wake up!" Nanny Lim patted her cheeks.
"Young Miss, I know you are already up. Stop acting and get up."
Mia sighed deeply.
Getting up, she touched her forehead.
"Seems like I am running down with fever."
Holding her head, she grumbled,
"Arghhhh. My head hurts too. Seems like I have a migraine."
"Ugh ugh ugh ugh. Nanny Lim, can you pass me a glass of water."
"Ugh Ugh Ugh, seems like the weather is, "
"Stop acting Young Miss. I have been with you for 24 years and all these tricks are just old." Nanny Lim cut her off.
"Just like you, old lady." With that, Mia stomped towards the bathroom.
Nanny Lim chuckled out loud and left her room.
...
President's Palace.
Fiddling her nails, Mia looked at the gates. Yes, she had to enter no matter what.
Taking the long ride towards the main palace, Mia sighed admiring the beautiful place. Just the entrance was so lavish just like a Victorian Empire.
As soon as she reached the two big doors, a maid rushed and bowed.
"Welcome, Young Miss." Taking the bag from her shoulder, she was made to walk towards the grand hall.
"Young Miss, please have a seat." Another maid brought a bowl and a wet towel. Sure enough, she was really in a palace.
Washing her hands, she nodded with a smile.
"Omg, You are so pretty."
A woman in her forties pulled her into a tight hug.
Guessing she might the First Lady, Mia gulped in nervousness. Yes, she was a feisty queen, a careless brat, a hooligan but how could she befriend someone who was so elegant and was worshipped by everyone. And to add up, they shared a close tie with their father which just burdened her nervousness.
Looking at her creased brows, Charlotte chuckled and said,
"Haha, it's ok. You don't need to be formal. I would love to see that careless brat which Arthur always praised to heavens."
'Shit, they are really close. Seems like Master, Dada and these were close friends.' Mia thought.
With a smile, she greeted,
"Nice to meet you, Ma'am. "
"Girl, call me aunty."
"Hello, Au Aunty."
"Mother-In-Law would be better." A hoarse voice gushed her throat. Mia turned pale.
Walking towards them, Felix chuckled looking at the stupefied girl.
"Don't scare her Felix." Charlotte smacked his hand.
"You were just 4 years when I saw you. Look at you now, just like your mother." Felix patted her head.
Comprehending herself, Mia bowed deeply.
"Nice to meet you, Sir I mean uncle."
Mja still had that glimpse of their first meet.
It was in Han mansion, where she even played a toodles game with him.
"You remember me?" Felix asked.
"Yes, Uncle and even our Toodle game." She said with a game.
"Hahaha. Yeah yeah. I would be happy to play it again."
"And I would join too." Kiara entered and hugged Mia tightly.
"Hello, I am Kiara."
"Nice to meet you, Kia." Mia smiled.
Everyone sat and the conversation continued and Mia broke her walls and went back to her usual self.
An hour later.
"Seems like we have a guest." Ian walked down with a grin.
"Fuck." Mia was dumbfounded.
Looking at the weird expressions from the trio sitting around her, she coughed
"Ugh Ugh, I mean fly. Seems like a fly is on my neck." She scratched her neck.
"Hahaha, She is sooo cute." Felix chuckled out loud and Charlotte nodded.
"Hello, everyone." A lady entered the room.
"What the fu?" Mia jumped up and gulped her last word.
Looking at the annoying woman, Mia sighed.
Sure enough, this palace was turned into hell for her.
