Chereads / I Love You, Prince (English) / Chapter 4 - First Encounter

Chapter 4 - First Encounter

Meanwhile, in the Kensington Palace, in an expansive room or rather Chamber.

A handsome blonde-haired young man was busy with his laptop. His sharp brown eyes never turned for a second to the object in front of him, so he was completely unaware of the presence of a graceful and beautiful woman who had been watching with angry feelings.

This woman was so unpretentious and charismatic, even at 50 years of age, her beauty did not fade. She was Lady Kate, wife of King William.

"I hope that stupid thing will be broken so you can get rid of it. George, how many times I told you never to play that silly game ever again! Do you know what is the time now? It's 1 PM and you haven't eaten anything yet. Honey, you are a future king, you have grown up to become an adult and you have only 2 semesters to finish college, are you going to be like this forever?" Lady Kate grumbled desperately.

The woman was very frustrated with the behavior of her eldest son. Among the three children, George was the only one who caught her attention. After all, a royal heir who should have been a role model of his people turned out to be a time-sensitive gaming maniac.

That was what bothered her. However, apart from his hobbies, George was a good young man. He was actively charitable, friendly. He was not arrogant making him loved by the people and be the favorite prince of England.

Furthermore, he was very much interested in horse sports and tennis. No wonder he had won various kinds of championships. His handsome face and good looking body in 185 cm tall were ready to meet any woman who looked at him. That made him even more hailed.

But at the age of 21 and with the perfection he had, didn't make it easy to gain true love. All women close to him were only after his power. In his eyes, all women were the same, that's why until this present he had never thought of loving a woman except his mother and sister.

Hearing that familiar scolding, George immediately turned off the laptop while smiling at his mother.

"Yes Mom I know, it's just that… the game was addicted me and I don't think to stop." He answered as he held his mother's hand. Hearing her son's response, Lady Kate became more upset.

"This is the last time I warned you, or your father will take an action against you." Hearing his mother's threat, his eyes widened. Imagining the mad face of his father made him scared, especially if he got punishment.

How could he not, his father, King William was very strict with his children. Bat, it was not without reason. Being a king was something that could not be taken lightly.

Being a role model by all the people was not as easy as turning the palm. There were so many rules and ethics, an attitude that must be obeyed and maintained as best as possible and that was what King William instilled in his three children, especially George because he was a future King.

"No Mom please, I promise you. This is the last time." Said George, looking with a pleading gaze.

"You better keep your promise and this is your last promise because you know the consequence, now come out of your room and after dinner, get ready to British museum representing me there." His mother ordered then left the room.

After a few moments, George came out with a fresh look, his slightly wet hair added to his sexiness. With a smile on his lips, he greeted all servants who passed him towards the dining table.

He ate his meal elegantly. After full and satisfied, George headed to his beloved black Lamborgini and sped away.

At the same time, Alesha who had just arrived at the apartment was startled by her cousin, Olivia.

"Surprise…! Welcome to the loveliest city in the world..!" Olivia exclaimed as she hugged his cousin tightly. Alesha who was shocked could only stare at her cousin with an annoying gaze.

"Can you at least not giving me a heart attack, Oli? You seemed ready to kill me anytime. Whenever I meet you, whether on the phone or in person, my heart will fall off, you know? And what..? what did you say? The loveliest city in the world? I don't think so, do you know I…" Alesha couldn't finish her sentence because Olivia's hand suddenly covered her mouth.

"I know...I know, that's why I'm going to take you to explore the whole city of London to make you realize that you have been thinking wrong all along." Olivia said with a proud smile.

"We will see it later," Alesha replied lazily as she left her cousin then went into her room and immediately threw her body on the bed and fell asleep.

Olivia simply shook her head looking at Alesha, she knew her cousin's feeling after her aunty, Alesha's mother told her about Alesha's condition. Therefore, she promised herself and was determined to return Alesha to her old self, a sweet girl full of enthusiasm and joy.

The sound of the alarm echoing throughout the room made Alesha reflexively cover her ear with a pillow. Who would dare to end their life by putting the stupid alarm clock in her room? Then she suddenly realized that her annoying must be the culprit.

"Oliiiiii…!! If you are tired of living just tell me, I want to kill you right now." She yelled angrily. Olivia who had been behind the door was holding back laughter while clutching her stomach which was starting to hurt.

"Come on Lesha get up, it's already late. Get ready, I will show you around." Olivia said as she pulled the blanket covering Alesha's body and threw it on the floor.

"Do I look care? I don't give a damn what you are saying. I'm not going anywhere. You better get out of here, I'm still sleepy." Alesha replied carelessly as she leaned back hugging the bolster and closed her eyes.

Receiving such a response, Olivia certainly didn't remain silent.

"This afternoon at the British Museum there is an exhibition. All the world's ancient collections are displaying freely. If you miss that event, you definitely will regret it, because the exhibition is only held once every five years." She said to lure Alesha then leaving with a grin.

Olivia knew so well her cousin's weakness. Besides her habit of being fond of learning, Alesha also loved ancient objects. Alesha who had started to sleep back suddenly opened her eyes.

"Wait for me, I'm coming..! She said as she run to the bathroom. A moment later, Alesha came out of her room, she looked so beautiful and lovely with her favorite flawless makeup. Wearing casual clothes and sneakers, made her beauty shine even more.

With a height of 170 cm and a sexy slender body, she was indeed quite tall for an Indonesian girl, because she was in England where most people had a tall body, she seemed even smaller than people around her. Unlike her cousin Olivia, who had only 155 cm tall and a slightly thick body.

"Just watch out if you dare to lie." She threatened, glaring at his cousin.

Olivia who had been waiting for him on the couch smiled with satisfaction. Soon, they headed toward the car and drove away.

Along the way, Alesha secretly admired the beauty of London city. Her big round eyes watched the beautiful skyscrapers. Olivia simply glanced at Alesha and smiled as she focused on driving.

They arrived at the building whose front was filled with supporting pillars which were decorated with ancient ornament on each side. The building looked ancient yet very grand and well maintained. Both the entered and how astonished Alesha was when she saw the inside of the building. Everything looked so amazing.

They toured to see various kinds of collections such as Egyptian mummies, Lewis Chessman, Oxus treasures, Easter Island statues, Islamic word collection, and many more, and even there were Indonesian artifacts.

Unlike other days, the British Museum was very crowded there was a special visit from the palace but Alesha and Olivia didn't know about it.

Prince George who had just arrived at the Museum suddenly became the center of attention of all visitors. As usual, his very handsome face, tall body, sharp brown eyes, and soft smile made everyone could not turn away.

Meanwhile, Alesha was still busy admiring the collectibles alone, Olivia nowhere to be seen. She enjoyed her presence in that museum till suddenly she felt her body pushed hard into the corner which full of artifacts and ancient jars, finally…

"Klaaaaaaang…klaaaaaaang…!!"

The sound of crushed objects echoed throughout the room, all eyes that had been focus on George reflexively turned toward the source of the sound.

Alesha who fell held her aching shoulder could only bow helplessly.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean it." She said trying to stand up, but unfortunately, her leg couldn't be moved. She sat back down holding her led which hurt so bad.

"Oli, where are you?" She muttered desperately.

She felt herself like a funny spectacle, how ashamed she was. She didn't know what to do, she was afraid and felt guilty. This called rub salt into the wound, her life was over, how unlucky. She never expected her coming to this museum would bring a disaster for her. Was it possible that the fate God had set out for her just bad luck?

Then she felt a pair of strong yet soft and warm hands lifted her body and took her to one of the chairs and sat her down carefully. Alesha who tried to control her chaotic feelings adjusted her seat quickly.

'Are you all right?" asked the man who helped her in a husky soft voice.

"Yes, I'm okay thank you," Alesha replied weakly. She was holding the pain in her leg and shoulders. But somehow, the voice that was heard by that man was the most beautiful sound he had ever heard.
