Chapter 100 - Justice
Gavon sighed in relief and smiled like a child. Ivy also became excited and started thinking of her bucket list, she made a note to prepare one list for herself as she is in fantasyland.
'It is going to be interesting.' Ivy got excited.
Meanwhile, in the palace, the atmosphere is not good. Andrea is standing in front of her and Ivy parents while crying her eyes out.
"Father, Please bring justice to me. Ms Aivyn tried to attack me." Andrea bawled in front of them and kept on accusing Aivyn.
Veronica already has a headache due to Simon words, after Ivy left the room he keeps on talking about the incident and her soul left her body while trying to divert the topic.
She tried very hard to not involve her children in this or else she might lose her title in a blink of an eye and both idiots of her will be done for good.
"Andrea, Stop it. Do you have proof? What exactly happened?" Veronica raised her voice, making Andrea stop crying.
"M-Mother. That... I saw her in my garden and asked her what she was doing here, but instead of answering me, she started insulting me. I sent away my servants to not make an issue about this but she came to my throat and threatened me. I don't know what I did for Ms Aivyn but she seems to hate me."
"My servant is observing us from the shadows and came to my rescue when she tried to attack me. Before she came Ivy left me by threatening." Andrea cried pitifully.
Gabriel looked at the maid and asked "What did you see?"
The maid who was standing beside her also came forward and bowed before saying "Your Majesty, Please bring justice to the Royal Highness. From the start I saw hatred in Miss Aivyn's eyes, even Princess tried to speak formally she is insulting with her words." The maid added.
"How dare you? Think once before speaking ill of my daughter."Simon thundered causing the maid to shrink in fear.
Simon ignored the maid and looked at the Princess before saying "Your Highness, Don't slander my daughter. Let's summon Aivyn here and listen to her story as well. I have faith in my daughter that she didn't do anything like this."
Simon's voice is loud and clear, Andrea felt a sense of crisis but she gathered her wits and said "What do you mean Lord Simon? Are you saying I am the one who is blaming Aivyn?"
Simon frowned and said "Let's summon Aivyn. Your Majesty, Please give me permission."
Gabriel looks at Simon and at Andrea who is looking confident that Ivy attacked her and she is looking at him directly in his eyes which made him believe her words "Sure."
"Thank You, Your Majesty," Simon said and turned around signalling the servant to summon Aivyn.
'Don't disappoint me Andrea' Gabriel thought to himself while looking at Andrea.
Whereas Aivyn and Gavon are talking about a few random things and lost in their world.
"Oops." Ivy held her forehead and looked troubled.
"What happens?" Gavon inquired.
"My Lord, We have to go. Ronald might be looking for me and it's been a long time. My parents will be looking for me." Ivy said worriedly. She won't know how much time has passed but if Ronald has already come and started searching for her then it is going to be a disaster.
"Ohh That's it. Let's go then." Gavon said and climbed down.
"Aivyn, you will come down on your own right? Should I help you?" Gavon asked, she did well in climbing but coming down might be a problem.
"Don't Worry, Lord Gavon. I will come down" Ivy said and followed the actions of how Gavon climbed down and she swiftly came down.
Ivy stood in front of Gavon and clapped her hands to remove the dust, "See, it's easy."
Seeing her smug expression Gavon expected what she wanted to listen to and said "Yes, you are excellent Ms Aivyn."
"Of Course, I am" Ivy straightened her body and flipped her hair back.
Gavon shook his head with a smile and suddenly he thought of a moment where she lost her footing and fell on him.
'How good would it be if she lost footing and fell on me again? Then we may ki–Kiss again… Gavon you pervert.' Gavon scolded and started looking for her heels.
"Ms Aivyn, Should I help you with the heels?" Gavon offered help but instead of answering him she wore them and looked at him.
"It's easy, If I can't even wear them in this dress then how can I carry them out? My Lord, you need to know a lot about girls." Ivy lectured.
Gavon was lost for words, he doesn't know how many times he lost his words to this day. But he finds a new Aivyn in this time, her thoughts, her views, her perspectives everything is different and refreshing.
"Shall we," Ivy said and both of them left the place.
While they are entering the palace, Ivy sees Ronald who is in a hurry and is jogging somewhere. She called him and Ronald turned towards her and came towards her,
"Ivy, I am sorry, I got delayed there and you have to wait for me this long. I am sorry dear." Ronald said in a single breath.
Ivy chuckled and held him by his shoulders. "Take a deep breath" Ronald did as she instructed, "Now release slowly. Do it two times."
Ronald did as she said and he felt calm "Feeling better?" Ivy asked and Ronald nodded his head.
"Good, I went with Lord Gavon for a small stroll and we are coming back right now. So don't worry" Ivy filled him.
Ronald then only notices Gavon who is looking at both of them without any expression but his eyes are different, they seem gentle.
"Lord Gavon, Apologize for the late greetings." Ronald bowed slightly showing his respect.
Gavon waved his hand and said, "Not a problem."
Ronald smiled and nodded his head, "Ivy, shall we go." He asked ivy.
"Su…" Before Ivy completed her words a maid came towards them and bowed before saying hurriedly "Young Madam, Your Majesty has summoned you. Please follow me."
"Me?" Ivy is confused.
"Yes, Madam." The maid replied politely.
"Sure. Please lead the way."Ivy said and turned towards Gavon "My Lord, I will take my leave then."
Gavon felt something wrong with this summon and said "Ms AIvyn, I have some work with His Majesty. Let's go. I will wait for him outside while you complete your talk."
Ivy nodded and they followed the maid. In no time they reached the guest room where they waited for His Majesty. Aivyn and Ronald entered the room after announcing their presence.
"Your Majesty, Your Highness" Ivy and Ronald showed their respect.
"Ms Aivyn, Where did you go?" Gabriel inquired.
Aivyn felt the strange atmosphere in the room and looked at her parents. Allora's eyes are sad and Simon's eyes are fuming with anger then she sees Andrea who is having a smug look and immediately she understands the situation, She didn't feel nervous instead thought 'Princess. You fool. Okay, let's end it.'
"I take a stroll nearby, Your Majesty. Anything wrong?" Ivy asked politely.
"Ms Aivyyn, did you try to hurt the Princess?" Gabriel came straight to the point without beating around the bush and Ivy also felt glad.
"What? Your Majesty, how can Ivy hurt Princess? There must be some misunderstanding." Ronald was the one who reacted first.
"Ronald, are you with Ms Aivyn the whole time?" Gabriel inquired.
"T-That, No. I went to have a look at the palace's training grounds, Your majesty. But Ivy won't do anything like that, there might be some misunderstanding" Ronald became anxious.
"T-That, No. I went to have a look at the palace's training grounds, Your majesty. But Ivy won't do anything like that, there might be some misunderstanding" Ronald became anxious. He never thought something like this would happen to his sister in the palace. If he knows he won't leave her side no matter what.. But every time something happens to her when she is beside him, still, he is not able to protect her and he felt ashamed for his incompetence.
