Camilla flinched as her door was abruptly opened by her mother.
Shoving the mysterious book aside under the dresser she stood up in slow motion.
And then she flashed a smile at her mother who came in with a concerned expression.
What can I help you with mom she asked camly trying to behave normally under Julia's scrutiny.
Julia after calming her thoughts that were already thinking the worst as patted her chest turned to her and asked.
What were you busy with dear I have been knocking for nearly two minutes she questioned.
And Camilla although surprised to hear that she had been knocking for that long masked her expression to avoid giving any thing away suddenly blushed.
And Julia who was looking at her daughter's shy expression was stunned momentarily smiled.
I'm really sorry mom,I was carried away with admiring my hair that looked very beautiful in the mirror she blurted out of nowhere and kept her gaze to the floor in embarrassment as the excuse sounded too abnormal for someone like her and she cringe at her stupidity.
Oh dear,you are finally starting to show emotions girls your age show.
I understand honey at your age I would get carried away looking at myself in the mirror too no need to feel embarrassed am your mother Julia assured her in her loving motherly voice.
And Camilla immediately felt bad for lying to her.
Let's go downstairs we received an invite from the palace your father is yet to open it that's why I came up her she said lightly smacking her head as she almost forgot.
An invite from the palace Camilla asked in curiosity and Julia nodded as the made their way downstairs.
There you both are I was beginning to think I had to send a car to bring you both down her le Liam said in false anger and Camilla scoffed.
You need actual money to get one and that dear younger brother you are too far behind in that area she countered while keeping her angelic smile on her face.
Soon the both started bickering with each other and Mark felt a head ache coming just by listening to them.
Calm down children at this rate you might burn down the house in out absence one day he joked.
He would be the one to start the fire dad,he doesn't know how to even light a candle properly Camilla jabbed again.
