Noah shut his mouth for a moment.

The child in front of him appeared out of the blue loudly this morning and asked him to save her, but now, she asked him to adopt her?

"Ha-- Unbelievable, then why should i adopt you?"

"No, it's only temporary adoption"

"what do you mean... " he said and looked confused

"You don't need to love me, it's just adopt me i don't care about successor of the Valentine if i turn adult i will leave this house. "

"No, i don't like children... " Aria stared to him quitely

".... "

'I just only save you because you have silver hair...' Noah thought he didn't hate her silver hair just he feel remainding someone that has silver hair.

"Then duke can i just stay here for few day..." she said with pale face.

"Ah. "

And then Aria immediately bowed to the floor and begged to noah.

"Just for few day let me stay here I can do anything. I will definitely have a use...!"

She shout to him

"Hey i didn't ask you too kneel down i save you so get out and go to your family"

"I don't have family so...just please let me stay here please I'm begging I'm useful."

This is the First time that aria become weak she can do anything, because Noah Valentine he's only her only hope for her revenge.

"Ugh, Why you have silver hah!"

"I-I don't know.... " Aria said that looked confused

"Forget it, fine in just One year."

And then aria raise her gaze to noah

"Ah, that's mean. Then I can stay here until then?"

Noah closed his lips for a moment when she asked back.

Then he clicked his tongue and spoke,

"Do what you want."

Snap!

He snapped his fingers and disappeared.

'Just what is Duke Valentine's ability?'

" now i can stay here to this mansion it's okay even it's 1 year but still the duke accepted me just i need to be useful for him. "

Then aria come to the bed and laydown she took the blanket "I wish my plan is going"

***

Aria Room is on second floor guess room and noah room is on fifth floor.

"That kid is reminding me of the lady Atlante. "

"Oh Really...." Noah said while looking at the window

"What we should do to her? " the old gentleman with gray hair appeared suddenly from a space where no one was present said.

"Just threw the boy to the duchy. And that girl will stay in this house for only one year. "

"Did you stay that kid to this mansion because she's remaining of lady atlante. "

"Who know... Do what i say threw that boy to the agnes duchy."

"ah, the words of "threw" is harsh for the kids you still the same still rude"

"Tsk." then noah leave the old gentleman alone

***

Aria opened her eyes slowly and rubbed it and she stand up she saw a middle aged women preparing a food to her

Then the middle age women turn his head to aria and spoke "Are you up?"

"Ah. Yes"

"By the way my name is Dana Romona I'm the the head maid of the Valentine Duchy.

Then Aria bowed her head. She know she can greet her properly.

"Nice to meet you, head maid Dana my name is aria"

"Oh, nice to meet you" Dana smiled at aria then aria confused to dana that give aria kind affection

"By the way, are you hungry do you want to eat sweet? "

"Ah, i can't eat sweet"

"it's that so then What do you want to eat?"

Then Aria smiled and spoke "i want some hot soup." then dana smiled to aria "okay i will prepare it for you" she said with smile

"I will get you some snacks, so have some rest."

Then aria nooded when dana leave she came closer to the table and she saw A wooden basket full of chocolate chip cookies.

Aria hesitated and carefully picked up a cookie.

They prepared it with all their heart, so let's try one.

She hold the cookies on table and observed

'Milk with honey and chocolate cookies, will it be good?'

What will it taste like?

Can I have something like that…?

She thought then aria eat the cookies slowly.

apple juice is sweet but this thing is more sweet than that.

A small piece separated, and soon, the cookie snapped.

Chew, chew.*

Gulp*

'Ah, sweet... It was sweet. Apple juice was also very sweet, but this was sweeter than that.

"maybe It's from aristocratic.

This taste was more noble than anything else.

So it was a taste that she had never been allowed to taste.

She didn't know chocolate was this delicious.

'Because of brainwashing i lived full of suffer.'

When she think about she eat more cookies, she belatedly realized that there was only one cookie left in the basket.

'Ah. I didn't control myself how can i eat all along? " then arie sweat alot.

On top of that, she saw her hands were so dark?

Her palms, stained with a color the same color as chocolate,

"Ha-let's get out of this and wash my hands first "

Aria approached the door and opened it with a clenched fist.

Click.

As she left the black room, a darker passage was seen. Yesterday, she was too out of her mind to properly check her surroundings, but when she looked properly, it was quite overwhelming.

'Just like the owner of this mansion.'

Unlucky aria never saw a maid in this room.

"I think i need to go there by my self"

While aria looking for towel she saw a gentleman with white hair she paused for the moment and their eyes meet.

"Ahem"

Perhaps the old gentleman didn't know they would meet so he didn't make eye contact.

"Hello? " aria bowed to him and the old gentleman saw her eyes that like lifeless.

His gaze soon began to look closely at Aria's silver hair and red eyes.

Silver is a very rare color.

And red eyes are even more rare.

But the girl had both.

'if only lady Atlante hadn't died and married lord I'm sure that child has a pretty eyes like that but this girls eyes it's feel lifeless like lord'

"Ah greeting Princess Agnes I'm Henry Ford the duke butler"

He said then bow to to her then aria gave henry a smug face and spoke calmly

"I'm not a princess of agnes I'm just a substitute of the real Princess of agnes"

Then henry eyes widened to aria words to her.

"Then What do i Call you? "

"Aria. "

Aria smiled bright face and her hands covered with chocolate.

Then henry looked at aria and think that this was too different from what he was imagining.
