"Your Grace, how could I not losse my temper especially when...your name is being tarnished...and that too because they...no I shouldn't blame them either...it's me...it's all because of me..." She said while looking at the ground with teary eyes.
"Its all because of me...you a god like person is being called a...womanizer..who doesn't care about his children's.."
.
"Womanizer!" The butler said as his eyes widened and his head immediately turned towards the Duke who was comforting Jessica.
.
"Jessica, we talked about this before didn't we? I told you not to blame yourself...."
.
"My Grace, how could I not blame myself...afterall it's me who is joking the Willson family...and somewhere it is because if my incompetence the kids have got such an attitude...please forgive me..." She said while rubbing her tears.
.
"No, it's not your fault...all this years I have seen how much hard you worked for them. And as for the incompetence...it must be because I didn't follow my responsibilities as a father should do. So, the only one to blame is me...I couldn't understand my kids." He said while putting his hands on her shoulders and giving her a wry smile.
.
The butler feeling it's not his place to be left as soon as he could bit ad he went outside, he saw no other then Harris standing there with a incesed look on his face while holding a cup of milk on his hands.
.
"Young Master..."
"Butler Mill, please make sure those rumours don't reach sister's ears...please..." He said and started walking towards Rose's room which was towards another corner.
.
"Hah, I wonder what type of evil got its eyes in this family...why do they never have a single happy moment...God please help them." The bukter said as he looked at the upward direction and then continued his usual work.
.
"Sister, did you finish your fruits? See, I even bought you a glass of milk by myself." Harris who walked till her door with a heavy heart still put a smile on his face while entering her room, just so that she wouldn't worry.
.
"Harris...you didn't have to do so much. And why did you bring only one glass? Won"t you have it yourself?" Rose who was sitting near the balcony asked as she looked at him with a small smile on her face which looked a little thinner.
.
"Sister, I had enough of milk. So, this is just for you, now no more talking just finish this quickly." He said while smiling and handing her the glass gently.
.
"Okay, Okay." She said while drinking the milk at once.
"...Sister, aren't you bored of sitting inside the house whole day? How about we go outside?" Harris asked as he held her hands.
.
"Going outside..." She said with a little hesitation,
"Its fine if Sister doesn't want to." He said while smiling at her.
"...No! I want to go outside too...when should we leave?"
"Great, how about today afternoon? We can go and hang around the market area while having some delicious street food." Harris said as he giggled while Rose patted his head and looked at him quietly.
.
Meanwhile at the Winter Palace,
"Ashton...Are you a human?" Irene who had been tied to her bed asked as she looked at Ash who was siting near her.
"Sister, don't wate your energy in talking and sleep. If only you rest well today I will allow you to look for Lady Willson Tomorrow."
.
"Just how can you be like this! You know I am the elder one don't you? So how come you are being so disrespectful toward me?" Irene said as she tired to break free the clutches but nothing helped and Ashton who was fed up with his nonsense at ladt had to close her mouth with his hand.
.
"Sister, just like the way Lady Willson is important to you! My sister Irene is important to me! And I can never think of making any compromise on that aspect. So please don't make more anxious and sleep tight. Harrisnis there for her...and Sister no matter how much you say or do for someone until and unless they make up their own mind nothing can help." Ash said as he smiled at her and left the room.
.
"Do you think, I don't know that...but still like a fool I keep trying to help her out...because sometimes all we need is a push...and even though I can't do much I can atlest be thr push button in her life." Irene talked to herself as she closed her eyes.
.
Ashton who listened on all the words Irene said smiled and was about to walk way when suddenly he meet Sam on the hallways.
"Ashton!" Sam said with a smile as she held his hands tightly.
"Whats wrong with you? Why are you being like this?" He asked while removing her hands form his.
.
"Being like what?" She asked back while tilting her head.
"Being all touchy and clingy." Ashton said out of frustration which made her to flinch and because it all too sudden she even got hiccups.
.
"Hey---You---" Ashton who was surprised by her sudden hiccups stood near her with a guilty look on his face.
"I wasn't try-- *hiccups* --ing to be clingy, I was just a *Hiccups* little excited." She said while clenching her clothes which touched her chest.
.
"Okay Okay, now calm down and sit there for a while." He said while patting her back and heading towards the bench nearby.
"Now tell me calmly what is that you are dying to tell me about?"
"---Its nothing special---its just that I was happy to see you after so long. And that got me excited, hehe weird na." She said with a smile while Ash looked at her with an amused look on his face.
.
"...I guess you really missed me this past days that even your Brain has gone mad." He said while ruffling her hair and leaving the bench.
"Hey! You how could you!" She said while running after him.
.
"They are having a good time and Ash seems so reliable doesn't he?" Bulter said while looking at Raymond who had a frown on his forhead.
"Yeah, they are great...thanks to the good graces and people around them, thy grew up so well..." Raymond said as he smiled but that smiled soon turned bitter as the image of Rose at the ball flashed in his mind.
.
"Lord, are you worrying about Lady Willson?" The Butler who knew him too well for his own good said as he smiled.
"Will you believe me if I say I am not..."
"Of course not."
.
"Hah, I am very much worried about that child she is very much like our Irene keeping a strong front in the light and breaking down in the dark...although that day's situation was so severe that it didn't even took her a second to have a complete breakdown...
.
and as far as I have the Duke...he is not a kind of person who will ever approach you first...hah, God I hope that stubborn jerk won't do something he would end up regretting for a lifetime." Raymond who has been good friends with the duke since his 20s said while Irene who somehow came out of her room listened to their words while clenching her fists.
.
"(Regretting for a lifetime....I don't want that...)" Irene thought while looking at her family and thinking of Rose's condition by keeping herself in her shoes.
.
"What in the world, am I trying to do? Keeping myself in her shoes, what a joke... especially when I can't even imagine the amount of pain she must be going through..." Irene talked to herself as a tear rolled down her eye.
.
"Hah, I must see her...it's okay If I can't comfort her...atleast I can give her a shoulder...or become a person who can accompany her..." Irene thought as she smiled while wiping off her tears.
.
Meanwhile at the Carot palace,
"My Lady, Your Father is here." A maid said as she ran towards Violet room with a cheerful smile.
"Really!" Violet said ad she stood up form wjr sear excitedly.
.
"Yes, really please come down quickly." The maid bot able to control her excitement said as she held her hand.
"I will be down soon but let me fix my hair first okay." She said while pushing the naid out if the door with a smile and the maid followed her words and left as fast as she could.
.
And just like her pace, the smile and excitement on Violet's face also left leaving behind a cold and bitter expression.
"Tch, tch, Violet dear that's not the correct expression a daughter should use while meritng her father." The women form beifre returned through thin air said as she smiled at her and ended up receiving her death stare.
.
"Really, you talk as if you have no idea as to why I am greeting my father with such a grimace expression.." Violet said as she smiled at her and a knife flyed towards the women neck.
