Chapter 28 - Princess Amora

"Mister Gilbert! why do you forbid me to enter your office...?" asked Putri Amora with a fierce face, but her face suddenly turned red as her gaze fell on the handsome young man in front of her.

Mr. Gilbert and Oscar reflexively stood up.

"Your Honour!"

"Umm..." Princess Amora's face was lost for words. She didn't expect Mr. Gilbert to be accompanied by a handsome man. She was ready to get angry, but when she saw the gentle-faced young man in front of her, her emotions disappeared.

Mr. Gilbert was astonished to see Princess Amora looking confused.

"Your Majesty, how may I help you?" His words were gentle, as he knew how to handle the irritable youngest princess.

Princess Amora stood  stiffly, unable to hide her blushing face.

The wise Mr. Gilbert dealt with Princess Amora's impulsive behavior by remaining gentle, and in turn, Princess Amora began to adapt.

The spoiled girl finally managed to control her emotions.

After calming herself, Princess Amora said, "Please forgive me, I would like to ask for additional guards."

Everyone in the room was shocked.

"What happened? Princess Amora apologized? That can't be true. That's impossible. The phrase 'apologize' doesn't exist in Princess Amora's vocabulary.

Princess Amora  sighed, ignoring the others'  reactions.

Honestly, she didn't come here for that purpose. She was here to give orders: Master Gilbert was to organize a dinner for the royal family with Prince Lexius as the guest of honor. She hoped that this dinner would bring her closer to the Prince she loved.

However, when she saw Oscar's charming face, the image of her beloved Prince was thrown away somewhere. Now Princess Amora's feelings of liking have shifted to this young man with a sweet face.

"Who is this handsome man? He's young. He's not much older than me, but where has he been all this time? Why have I never seen him before?"

***

Princess Amora's heart quivered, immediately attracted to the young man in front of her.

Mr. Gilbert furrowed his brows. "Additional guards? But doesn't Your Majesty have six of the best guards at your disposal?" Mr. Gilbert asked, his baritone voice awakening Princess Amora from her reverie.

"Um...!" Panicking, Princess Amora looked for answers to Mr. Gilbert's questions.

Despite herunderstanding nature, Mr. Gilbert is known as a firm and decisive person, which earns he the respect and admiration of the royal family.

And Princess Amora knew she couldn't ask for anything outside the allocated budget.

"I request permission to replace the undisciplined guard!" said Princess Amora gently.

Mrs. Melani was surprised by the change in Princess Amora's behavior.

~ Previous events ~

Mrs. Melani and Clay got into a heated argument. The man blocked her at the door, forbidding her from entering Mr. Gilbert's office.

"Sorry, Madam. Mr. Gilbert cannot be disturbed because he is holding a special meeting!" Clay said in an indifferent tone.

Mrs Melani was annoyed. Since when did Mr. Gilbert forbid her from entering her office? Clay is making this up. What meeting? Why isn't she involved?

As an important figure for Mr. Gilbert, Mrs. Melani is always included in every important or special meeting. But now, not only was she not allowed to participate in the meeting, she was not even allowed to enter.

Mistress Melanie suspects that this meeting has something to do with the former kitchen slave.

She didn't believe that Oscar was a man.

"The former galley slave was a woman. Yes, she was a woman!" Mrs. Melani is sure of this.

"Oscar, or her name... has taken over. She needs to be taught a lesson!" Mrs. Melani felt anxious. Her heart ached, she had never been humiliated like this before.

But Mrs Melani couldn't do anything. She didn't want to give Mr. Gilbert a good reason to get rid of him.

Then Princess Amora arrives, changing the situation...but not even Princess Amora is allowed in!

Princess Amora became angry and scolded Clay.

Mr. Gilbert was pleased with Princess Amora's change in attitude. However, she didn't realize that it was caused by Oscar.

"Princess Amora, you don't need to worry. I will of it for you!" answered Mr. Gilbert with great wisdom.

Princess Amora's beautiful eyes flashed, showing her hesitation.

"Um... can you...of it now?" Princess Amora regretted her words which were not firm. She was used to never being rejected or opposed when she asked for something. That has become a natural thing. No doubt.

Mrs Melani was stunned. He rarely saw Princess Amora behave politely. He couldn't understand it. "There must be something wrong with Princess Amora!"_

"Did Princess Amora drink the wrong medicine?"

**

Meanwhile, Mr. Gilbert was shocked. Princess Amora's sudden change in behavior shows that she is becoming more mature, because she is now able to be respectful and polite to other people.

But now... Princess Amora and her bodyguards entered by breaking in and damaging the door. There is something wrong! What's wrong with princess Amora?

***

Mr. Gilbert had no experience with women's hearts, he didn't understand that this spoiled girl would become this shy because of a young man.

Does Princess Amora realize that she made a mistake? Damaged his office door. There is no word for apology in Princess Amora's dictionary.

Mr Gilbert knows Princess Amora's character. If there is a wish, it cannot be held back, it cannot be opposed. Princess Amora likes to impose her will.

King and Queen Constantine were overwhelmed by the sight of this spoiled princess. Even though he was troubled by Princess Amora's actions, Mr. Gilbert had a lot of experience in dealing with the various behavior of the royal family.

But Mr Gilbert has not run out of ways to deal with Princess Amora, he has experience with the various traits and desires of the various palace families.

Mr Gilbert knew this girl's weakness, sometimes Mr Gilbert was forced to ignore the princess' wishes. Mr Gilbert must be firm. However, the royal family is helpless without Mr Gilbert, who has served him all his life.

Mr Gilbert's family worked for the kingdom for four generations.

***

Witnessing Princess Amora's kind attitude, Mr. Gilbert felt touched.

"Your Majesty, I will choose the best bodyguard that can meet your needs!" Mr. Gilbert intended to arrange it later, because Princess Amora's request was not urgent.

"Uncle. I want this to be decided now!"

UNCLE?! Mr Gilbert was shocked. Princess Amora calls him "uncle".

Princess Amora had never called him that before, even though it was the correct way to address him. As a relative of the palace, he should be called "uncle" by princess Amora.

"Uncle, I choose him to be my bodyguard!" Princess Amora pointed towards  Clara Diana.

"What?!" Darwin was shocked. Meanwhile, "Why is it like this?"

On the other hand, Mr. Gilbert looked calm, but he was shocked. "Princess Amora? Oscar is a beginner. He hasn't trained yet!" He said in a persuasive tone.

"It does not matter!" Princess Amora answered in a forced soft voice.

"Princess Amora... I will find you a bodyguard who is trained and has high grades."

"I want it!" Princess Amora answered quickly, but did not lose her soft voice. Now she is used to having a soft voice. But behind her soft voice, Princess Amora has not lost her true nature. Imposing her will.

Mr. Gilbert sighed, for words. How could he persuade Princess Amora in front of many people? They were all waiting for Mr. Gilbert's answer.

***

Mrs. Melani was impatient with Mr. Gilbert's answer. If the former slave becomes Princess Amora's bodyguard, he will be kept away from Master Gilbert. However, if Oscar became the princess's bodyguard, it would bring the former slave into the fold of the royal family.

Mrs. Melani is jealous. Even though she was the palace cook, she could not enter and leave the palace freely. The former kitchen slave was always lucky. In two days, her life had changed for the better, even much better.

***

Mr. Gilbert looked at Clara Diana, he asked uncomfortably.

"Oscar, are you willing to be the princess' bodyguard..."

"I am ready!" Clara Diana quickly answered. Her voice was  deep  and strong like a man's voice. This was the most difficult part for her, because Clara Diana's voice was as innocent as a child's.

Clara Diana smiled inwardly. Enter the palace. It happened much quicker than she had planned.

Princess Amora was pleased with Clara Diana's response. She would make Prince Lexius jealous. She would make that annoying guy angry. Imagining this, Princess Amora blushed even more.

***

Mr. Gilbert looked at Clara Diana and spoke with a heavy heart.

"Oscar, are you willing to be the princess' bodyguard..."

"I am ready!" Clara Diana quickly answered. Her voice was  deep  and  strong like a man's voice. This was the most difficult part for her, because Clara Diana's voice was usually as innocent as a child's.

Clara Diana smiled inwardly. Enter the palace. It happened much quicker than she had planned.

Princess Amora was pleased with Clara Diana's response. She would make Prince Lexius jealous. She would make that annoying guy angry

Imagining this, Princess Amora blushed even more.

Mr. Gilbert was surprised by Princess Amora's expression. This wasn't part of the plan. Princess Darlene's answer made him change his plans

" It's decided. Oscar will be Princess Amora's part-time bodyguard!"

"Part time?! What do you mean?" Princess Amora wasn't happy.
