The sun is rising, and the room was bright under it because the curtains are open, and we could see a little silhouette on the wall on the opposite side of the windows.
Beth was awake watching the people below from the windows, being on the fourth floor has its advantages.
Tonight, she will finish her report added to the rest of the member's report.
It's her last report, for her last mission, she is excited. Being a Nova, she has more resources, and she is closer to her goal. Being on the top, being stronger, having the power to protect her loved ones, having the power to take back what belongs to her.
Power struggle, revenge, enemies, she doesn't have to deal with the first one, for the second one... well, she already took care of it, as for the third one, she got to deal with some, but there is someone remaining, that guy, is the son of 'that' man. It's not like he is an enemy, but in some sense, he's a treat. He won't hurt her, but he can hurt someone close to her.
"Sigh."
She can feel a little relief at ease knowing that her plans are moving faster and faster. It's a good pace.
"Well, I have lots to do today, it has to be a good day, it'll be a good preparation for tomorrow's face-slap." cheering herself with some motivation for the drama that's coming.
She went to take a shower and to get dressed; it took the paper bag from the corner of the room, yes, someone left her clothes on the paper bag in the middle of the night, she was surprised because she didn't notice when someone got inside her room, but not everyone can, the only one is Lina, one of her people.
"She is getting better and better every day… Good!"
"When I go back to my Master, I'll go to 'that' place."
Changing in the beautiful silk white and black dress, is only the upper part of the dress white color and the lower black color, white sneakers, in the right lower part of the dress there is an embroidery of a White Chrysanthemum Flower. The representation power of her family, but not everyone knows that only certain people with a certain power, even the Cooper families didn't know that.
There are two medium-size boxes at the end of the paper bag, taking with curiosity, she opens one of them and shrieked with excitement with delight.
"OH MY!"
Inside there was a beautiful silver pendant, at the end of it there was the same flower just like the dress, White Chrysanthemum, the same for the earrings, there were a bracelet and a ring as well, all the jewelry set.
There was a jewelry set similar to this one, she saw it once, but it was of gold, not silver. She was charmed back then with the one made of gold, yet; she has to be completely honest she loved more this one made of silver.
Thinking back, that jewelry golden set was lost with her mother.
"Mother, oh mother how I miss you" she let a teardrop of her face without her realize, it was then that she recovers from her stupor, trying to get rid of the sad moment closing her eyes.
The moment she opens her eyes, she saw the other box and opened it; it was the same set only that in black color. It was black jade; They carved the flower from black jade, an expensive jade a Black Imperial Jade! It's black but has green color on it. Just like her eyes, it fits.
It was more low-key much to her liking for her age and right now she can only wear the black. When she is in the open, a banquet or something, it can be used.
She returned her attention to a white paper folded inside the box; it was a note and when she saw the handwriting; she knew who was the one who sends it.
"Dear Granddaughter,
There is a lot to say, but I'll only tell you this;
Be strong for yourself,
Be happy for your loved ones,
Be ruthless for your enemy,
Be sensible of your close ones,
Be gentle and honest for the ones who deserve it,
Be a lady for your future husband, I don't want to admit, but you'll get married one day.
Don't hide your emotions from the ones who care about you.
To Be a leader worth of respect, you can be an Iron cold-blooded vicious Lady for the Empire,
You already have the qualifications to uphold the power, take a step forward and leave the shadows, come to the light;
You have more potential than your ancestors,
You can now use with pride and dignity our Crest, THE WHITE CHRYSANTHEMUM FLOWER, use it on the light,
Don't disappoint me, Elizabeth Lockhart.
With love,
Your Grandpa."
When Beth read this she was sobbing, closing her eyes taking deep breaths, trying to calm herself, once she could calm down, she smiled with Pride, her jade eyes turned sharp with determination, and an air of a dignity lady worth of worship came from her body, it was a natural reaction of her body; she was born to rule. Arrogant? Yes, she was born with arrogance in her bones, in her blood, and in her flesh, there was no part of her body that don't belong to a Golden Royal Family.
She then got back her attention to the rest of the note.
"P.S., no need to hurry in the marriage, you can stay with me forever, I won't get angry...
By the way, today you can use the black one, in your graduation use the silver one!"
She was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
Then she went ahead and took the jewelry set made in black imperial jade and put them on her, pendant, earrings, bracelet, and ring.
She took a look at herself in the mirror, and she feels lovely with just one look, she doesn't want to become a narcissist, but she has to be honest, a lovely little lady, she could see her own pride in her eyes, the pride for her beauty that comes from her mother, and the eyes from her father.
Satisfied with the glamour she is radiating; she took the jewelry boxes in her big white purse and turns around to leave the room. When a knock came from the other side.
Knock Knock Knock.
