The small greetings ended with an icy path between the two. Emelia didn't want to repeat it twice, but Lady Malith and her aren't going to be in the same boat. The way her eyes spark with evilness, Emelia was ready for the worst.
"We should be grateful, Lady Malith didn't do anything to us," Vanessa sighed as she poured tea into the cup.
"Lady Malith is a Raiimond. Am I right?" Emelia asked as curiosity sparked in her since Ayfara had the same last name as her. Vanessa nodded her head then said, "If you are wondering about Dame Ayfara they are sisters, though…" Vanessa paused and looked side to side before she continued, "They are stepsisters."
It's weird, Emelia thought. One sister is to become the next empress, while the other sister is one of the emperor's most loyal servants. Emelia had speculations that Lady Malith is much favored than Ayfara. It is clear that their father is biased towards the two. Somehow this kind of situation reminded her of herself.
