VIP Chapter 251: The Demon Princess Offers You Her Beautiful Dream (3)
In Will’s room at the Entak Royal Palace.
The gentle sunlight after lunch cast a warm glow on the red carpet.
The open wardrobe was filled with clothes of various purposes and colors, a “dazzling array” just like the breakfast this morning, and Will once again felt the “royal standards” and “highest royal treatment.”
He stood alone before the wardrobe, and these clothes, in his memory, seemed to be the ones he had worn with Treya on various occasions.
Now, he was alone. After all, it was Treya’s Coronation Ceremony, and she had more demands regarding her attire, as well as the venue and proceedings.
As a fiancé who had “temporarily joined” to provide companionship, he probably didn’t need to think too much.
Therefore, this was a rare time when Treya was not by his side, and he had time to change his clothes alone – a rare occurrence since entering the royal palace.
He thought for a moment and decided to wear the black suit according to Treya’s preference, not wanting to surprise her.
He looked at himself in the mirror, now dressed in a black suit.
In the very beginning, it was in clothes of this color and style that he had met Treya at a royal banquet. At the banquet, amidst clinking glasses, mingling crowds, and under the crisp, dim moonlight, he had seen Treya for the first time.
And for the past three years at Entak First Academy, they had maintained a secret relationship. It was a love that belonged only to the two of them, while he gazed at his “princess” and the “colors” in her eyes.
The maidservant sent by Treya to attend to him had finished arranging his outfit.
But…
He looked at the maidservant in front of him, who was adjusting his collar.
“Only the two of us… those days… was it really like that?”
“Alright, stop thinking about it. What’s in front of me now… is such a wonderful ‘reality’…”
But Will didn’t obediently wear the clothes as she had arranged.
Instead…
He tugged at his collar, deliberately revealing the bright red love bite Treya had left.
Without any sense of shame, he displayed it openly. In the mirror, he even adjusted the angle slightly to make the suit appear less neatly worn.
“Will… Mr. Will! You must… you must show that? Won’t this… won’t this affect your image…?”
“Treya did the same before. Hmm… For her, it was like leaving a mark on me? Then let’s show it to everyone.”
If one had to say it, this image was rather fitting for a young master who would rely on seducing women to get by.
Yes, this soft life was bestowed by Treya, who was about to become the new Empress of Entak.
“I… I really don’t know if you spoil her more, or if she spoils you more…”
It wasn’t bad, though.
Will didn’t care about others’ opinions. He just wanted everyone to know that they were a loving couple, as bright as the sunlight streaming in.
“Mr. Will, you might also need to wear this brooch…”
Just as Will was pondering this problem, the professional royal maidservant who was attending to him approached with an exquisite blue rose brooch that had a corner missing at four o’clock.
He had indeed been recognized as part of the “royal family” by Treya; otherwise, a brooch symbolizing the royal family would not be worn on his chest.
“I think, it is Treya who spoils me more?”
Will opened his arms, letting her put the brooch on him – because in the royal family, these experienced maidservants always did a better job than him.
The maidservant’s hands seemed a little clumsy. She lowered her head and fumbled with the brooch on Will’s chest, but she hesitated to put it on him properly.
This was rather unusual in Will’s experience.
“Hmm… Are you new? I don’t think I’ve seen you before.”
“Mr. Will is very perceptive. Treya… Her Majesty Treya must have dismissed all her previous servants about three days ago… It is said… she gave them a very, very large severance package…”
“Oh?”
Will found Treya’s action a little strange.
Treya was someone who paid great attention to her relationships with those around her. She would not simply dismiss servants she had employed for so many years.
She had even replaced all the people around him, from the coachman to the maids – at least, they were all people he didn’t know before.
“Did she say why?”
“She… she… I’m sorry, Young Master Will, I I I I… I can’t say!”
Now, Will felt strange not only about Treya but also about the maidservant in front of him.
She seemed to be very afraid of Treya?
But…
Will thought in his mind…
That gentle, lovely, kind, and pure Treya didn’t seem to have anything to be afraid of, did she?
“She’s not scary at all, is she?”
“Don’t be afraid. Treya isn’t that scary, is she? She won’t do anything to you if you tell her. After all, Treya is such a gentle princess – hmm… I guess I can’t call her princess anymore?”
Unexpectedly, Will’s well-intentioned words seemed to have the opposite effect.
As soon as he finished speaking, the maidservant’s trembling hand moved away from the brooch on his chest.
Her eyes looked at Will with not just fear, but as if she were looking at a monster.
“M-Mr. Will, you… are you serious?”
“What’s wrong?”
This question completely bewildered Will.
“Her Majesty is… No, no, Mr. Will, please pretend I didn’t say anything today! Well, let’s stop here!”
Although he had entered the royal palace, Will was indeed living a comfortable life, relying on his Hysterm Family status and his relationship with Treya.
But he wasn’t a fool.
He sensed that, at least in the eyes of this maidservant, Treya was not the gentle image he saw her as…
He looked at the sunlight streaming in from the window, narrowing his eyes slightly.
He had “always” regarded Treya as the sunlight that shone into his heart – and if his “memory” was correct, that was certain.
Perhaps Treya had encountered too many things recently and was too tired, carrying mental stress that he hadn’t seen, thus leading to this situation?
“Alright. I’ll act as if you haven’t said any of this, but… without revealing anything, can you tell me what you think Her Majesty is like?”
Will smiled gently and lowered his head slightly to speak to her.
“This… this…”
She hesitated, stuttering before finally saying:
“I… I just feel like… only Mr. Will can see through what Her Majesty is thinking and what expression she makes… Everyone else…”
She didn’t finish her sentence.
Because her eyes widened, and this scene was suddenly blocked by a pair of hands in Will’s view.
At the same time, he felt something soft leaning against his back.
Then, “someone” blew in his ear and asked,
“Will~ Guess who I am?”
“Treya, I wouldn’t mistake you.”
“Yes, it’s me.”
She walked over from the side with a smile.
She stood in the sunlight Will had been gazing at, using her feet clad in black crystal shoes to block the sunlight from the window.
However, she was wearing a rare black long dress – at least, Will had only seen her wear something like this at Edward’s funeral.
“I’ve come to pick you up. Let’s… let’s depart now.”
“As for other meaningless chatter…”
“—let it end here.”
