Daisy Pov:
I went to my room and took out the letter that written to the publisher and gave it to Ash . I also asked her to hear about the rumours recently . I asked her to collect the letter from them while returning . I think it'll be okay for now.
After , she left to the publisher . I laid down in my bed , while holding the other letter in my hands , that was meant for the emperor regarding my cancellation of my engagement .
But , it seems , it's useless now . Father was right , I have to be tolerant .
Earlier in the dinning hall
"Why?" he asked with a displeased voice.
After hearing his voice , I don't know what to say , why is so displeased about this , did he thought that crown prince was a good match to me ? . He just interrupted while I was organising my thoughts.
"Did he done anything bad to you ? " he voice seemed to be somewhat irritated . Did he thought I'm cancelling this because he hurt me or cheated on me . How amusing , he still believes me.
"No ,father .He had done nothing . It's just I don't have feelings for him ." I don't want to mention about Daman right now . After cancelling the engagement I shall introduce him to them. It looks like they seemed to be somewhat convinced.
"I see . If it's your wish then it would be. I was worried because you've kept things for yourself." he said with a troubled voice . I thought Daisy is close with her , what made them think like that . First let's discuss about the engagement.
"Father , I've already had a conversation with the crown prince about this matter . He told me to write a letter to the emperor to cancel the engagement. " as I said they both went into a deep thought.
"I think , His majesty won't allow you to cancel the engagement ; for now." as he stopped . I understood the meaning behind his words.
"I understand , even if I ask permission with his majesty , he will think it as if a childish wish and ask me to wait until the age of ceremony." I said and my brother nodded to my words.
"So it's better to break off your engagement at your age of ceremony ", he said . Its okay I have only 3 months until my age of ceremony .
"Yes ,dad. I'll do as you say." I nodded.
Then I went to my room and gave a errand for Ash . I think she'll okay . I slept as I thought about things.
After Ash came with a letter. She handed me the letter.
it seems the novel didn't sell at first ,but now they're increasing in sales. The customers are coming out of the shell. For now , the original 500 copies where sold off , due to the demand , he's preparing for another 150 copies. it's true , if there are more copies it will reduce the market value. He lives upto his name. He also attached a cheque of thousand gold coins.
Now, I can spend some money with this . He asked voluntarily about my next work . Then I have to write to his expectations, so I'll have more money in future .
(she's a materialist.)
Then, I've start to write my another novel . I asked for ink , paper and pen . Ash prepared it all and went to get me a cup of coffee .
'Shall I write a novel about boy's love' ; but it's too early ,I have to wait until my pen name reaches every ears and walls. my
I wrote a princess novel , I'm sure these people will have interest in these types of stories. After Ash served me a cup of coffee , I started to write the novel while I heard a sound of knocking the door .
"Daisy , its me." Matt said as knocking the door.
"Wait a minute , Matt". I shouted while holding my papers for hide it . I just put the paper in this last drawer. My family can never know about this , because she's the richest man's daughter .
"Come in , Matt. Why are you here suddenly?" I asked him while standing near the table.
"Its just , I can spend more time with you. Here's chocolate . " he put his hand in his pocket and took a bag of chocolates and handed over it to her.
"oh ! welcome Matt. I think I've more time to spend ." I smiled shamelessly , It's okay to lose some self respect over chocolate.
Ash served tea to her young master ,while I was eating chocolates ,but their was a silence for 5 minutes . Why isn't he talking ? shall I say something to break the silence ; as I was in my reverie . He interrupted and started to talk.
"Daisy , is it true that you're breaking off the engagement just because you don't have feelings for him?" as he asked , by analysing my expressions ; I raised my brow in suspicion.
"No , it just dad asked you about canceling the engagement when crown prince announced , but you said it's okay , then let the matter go ." he continued.
" You are concerned about your engagement this time , it seems like you have feelings for another person" as saying he's reading my expressions , when he hit the bullseye , I blushed without realising.
"I was right . Who is it? " why is my dumb brother is so sharp in these things , Ha, I really have to confess now.
"it's Daman Anemone , Matt ." I was blushing while saying , why is this face is so stupid?.
"it's seems my guess was right , he didn't left his gaze away from you , even for a while in the Royal ball. " he's teasing me , because I know about June he's making it even now .
"But , he was suffered.... it's something you have to listen from him . Because he was mostly in the magic tower , I don't know about him . But , if you think , he's good . I'll support you" he stopped halfway from what he was saying I'm curious now , but I've to ask Daman because I didn't read about the part after Daman entry. I once again regret it.
My brother left . I took back my novel papers from the last drawer ,but the cardboard is moving , as it has another secret locker. I'll take the cardboard to see , what it has . Oh ,it's a dairy , is it Daisy's ? , but they never mentioned anything about this in the novel .
I opened the dairy , I read and I was in agape I think now I can understand , why Daisy didn't break her engagement and kept things from her family , because of 'Pheony Rose' .
