Chereads / Emerging Rose: Take 2 / Chapter 8 - Spotlight

Chapter 8 - Spotlight

"Duke Augustus Demetrio Arches and Miss Dahlia Leonhart Arches." The Attendant announces while opening the door.

Everyone was gathered in the center, making a clear way to welcome their entrance.

The two came in with a beautiful smile eyeing the crowd. Everyone's attention was on them as they walked towards the front.

Meian held her breath, "The Female lead has come."

She is indeed a little beauty that would steal the hearts of 4 promising men in the future, but how come they took 15 years to find her? Does no one ever attempted to reach out on the Arches Dukedom since Midnight Blue Hair is their trademark? Their are lot of inconsistency on the original novel but who cares about that now.

Cause Dahlia already found her true home and so the plot thickens.

Dahlia walked passed Meian, there was this connection felt only in seconds. Dahlia gaze linger around where Meian stood before they made an eye contact.

Meian stood froze as the female lead eyed her. There was a chill that made her shiver for a second, then Dahlia broke the eye contact to proceed.

"Is that a good or bad thing?" Meian gulped and backed away.

Im a irregularity in this world, I hope nothing bad will come since the plot will likely change because of my existence. Meian thought taking another glass of champagne.

"In the Arcain Accident 15 years ago, I failed my duty as a husband and father. I initially believed I had lost my daughter along with my beloved wife, but a miracle occurred, and she is here standing in front of you. I hereby introduce my daughter, Dahlia Leonhart Arches, princess of the Arches Dukedom. Thank you for coming in the celebration of her welcome party. Please enjoy yourself for the night" The Duke proudly said, giving a toast to the crowd. Tobias was also at the side drinking down the champagne.

"Indeed, what a good looking family genes. No matter where they go, they will always have the spotlight." Meian mentally remarked

"Cheers." Everyone responded.

Meian also felt proud being able to witness this moment like the Cinderella story but she wonders why in such a important event that there was no royalty present? It wasn't a problem to her, Meian was kinda hoping she could get a glimpse of the royal family.

The night was filled with happiness and schemes from behind

~The Next Day~

Few days has passed since the banquet and nothing extraordinary has happened or is it our MC refused to elaborate details. Speaking of Her, Meian is comfortably resting on her bed.

"Caramel." she called out.

"Yes young miss, Do you need anything?"

"What's my schedule for today? ."

"Nothing."

"What do you mean nothing? And How about tomorrow? "

"Nothing."

"The day after tomorrow?"

"Nothing." Caramel plainly replied.

"So I'm free, just like a bird just like Eren."

"Uhmn yess? But Whos Eren young m-

" Really? That's amazing.? " Meian cut her off. She thought she had to do some catch up lessons but maybe not this week.

But having a lot of free time during this time is terror, from the perspective of a modern and gen z person. No cellphone, no internet, no kdrama/movie/manga/manhwa/manhua not to mention being cope up on her room is a Major No for Meian. She didnt mind during her 3 months of "adjusting" but now is different.

"Caramel listen carefully, I am person who hates boring, simplicity is not my thing. I go baam, whoosh and sometimes ka-bum. So today were going to explore." Caramel nodded along, somewhat perplexed to this sudden proclamation.

In fact Meian loves to sleep for hours and just rest on her bed BEFORE, but here on Vearth without technology and airconditioned room makes her antsy.

" It's adventure time. " Meian went to her wardrobe to change. Reappearing again, now fully dressed. She went out of her room followed by Caramel.

"Young Miss where do you plan to go?."

"Outside of the Estate, To the city of course."

"Don't you first need the Viscount's permission first?"

"I have to?"

"Yes? Did you also forget that Young Miss?."

"Hehe I kin- err yes, I forgot. So is dad around?." Meian shyly said.

"Viscount went to the town this morning and didnt returned yet, also the viscountess is currently entertaining a guest."

"So I can't ask permission? That sucks. My plan's cancelled way before it begin."she scratch her chin, thinking carefully.

"Sooooooooo." There was a long pause before Meian appealed.

"Why dont I tour the estate again? There must be some secret or hidden places yet to be explored, right?!."

"Maybe young miss?." Caramel observed her young Miss as they made their way towards downstairs. This few months she had witness the changes in her young miss attitude and habits. Unheard words, carefree personality and unique mannerism. If she had to describe she would say that this was a different person, this would be her conclusion if Caramel had gone crazy.

So what? Her young miss is still her young miss no matter what. This new version is like a breath of fresh air.

Deep down on her thoughts, Caramel is kinda amaze about the side effects of amnesia.
