"Are you busy?" He asked when she remained silent.

"No," she replied sharply shaking her head despite the fact that he was not close by.

"Should I pick you up?" He asked.

"No, I will go myself." She did not want anyone to find out since it was obvious he wanted to keep their meeting secret.

"I will text the address to you then or will you prefer having lunch in my house?" He asked.

She gulped when she remembered the beautiful garden and very comfortable house. "No, a nice restaurant will be better," she said determined to remain on her own lane since she was not clear of his motive.

"Sure.. I will send the address to you," he said. "Bye."

She stared at the screen of her phone confused. She closed her eyes as she made up her mind to get all her questions answered.

"Rose, let's go to the cafeteria," Anna said sitting beside her as she hugged her arm.

"Go without me. I have something to take care of," she had to reply with a smile hoping Anna won't get offended.

"Oh sure. I think I will hate fashion designing very soon," Anna complained as she released her sister's hand.

"I'm sorry," Rose apologized with an apologetic smile without bothering to correct her sister.

"No, it's okay. I will still be your model even if I hate fashion designing," Anna said before walking to the cafeteria.

Rose exhaled how was she going to leave school for the lunch date with Liam? The school was very secured because of the identities of the students. They had to ensure the kids were safe.

She knew there had to be a way out since Claire's killer could abandon her body in the school without getting caught. That caused the reputation of the school to drop which equally made them strengthen the security to prevent future troubles like that.

After thinking of different ways to leave the school premises without being seen, she could not come up with the right way. She picked her phone and decided to text him. No matter how urgent it was for her to leave the school, she could not do so if she did not have the right way to.

She could take permission but that will mean her mother and some other people will find out which was what she intended to avoid. Burying all her unanswered questions, deep in her heart, she decided to text him.

"Sorry, I won't be able to come. I have to attend classes," she murmured as she typed the words carefully to avoid making mistakes.

Liam stared at the text he just received and shook his head. He was aware she was still in school when he invited her to have lunch with him. She immediately rejected the offer obviously because she did not have a way to escape without being seen.

She was just took weak, although he liked that about her since that will mean she needed his protection but it also displeased him. She was up against the whole royal family including her mother's family but she could not leave the school building.

He shook his head. It was his priority to protect her and make her get the throne but what will happen to her when he is not there? Will she simply get killed? He shook his head furiously and stood up. She needed to be trained for what awaits her.

"Is she the girl Liam met?" a middle-aged man asked removing his reading glasses and rubbed his eyes gently.

"Yes sir," a younger man replied bowing with his hands clasped behind his back.

"She looks so much like the late Queen. I heard she got adopted by the late Queen's cousin," the man inquired displeased as he relaxed his back against the backrest of the chair he sat despite the unrelaxed feeling he felt the more he stared at the picture in his hand.

"Yes sir. I think she is the late princess but she seemed to have lost her memory," the young man briefed the older man.

"Lost her memory? I won't believe that even if I lose my mind," he said shaking his head and tsked. "Tell my sister and the other members of the council that we will hold a meeting concerning this issue tomorrow at midnight. Send the invitation to the head of the council and tell him it is urgent."

"Yes sir," the young man replied before walking out of the large study room as fast as he could.

The older man leaned forward placing the picture on the table and took a sip from a glass of a clear alcoholic liquid. He could not afford to lose all he spent decades trying to achieve along with the council members.

"How about dinner?" she read the text she just received from Liam with only her lips moving slightly.

'Dinner is fine, send me the location,' she texted planning to drive there after working with Eric after school for that day.

"I thought you were too busy to come," Anna said when she joined them for lunch.

"I had to go to the restroom," she whispered to her sister as she waited for her lunch to be served.

"So, what's the novel going to be about?" Wayne asked Debby.

"It is about a girl who was granted another chance in life, that is she was reborn to carry out vengeance," Debby replied enthusiastically.

"Oh . . . That's cool," Anna complimented.

"Yeah. I am going to read it," Eric said pulling out his smartphone.

"What are you guys talking about?" Rose asked unable to ignore the doubled speed of her heart beat.

"A novel Debby wrote," Anna replied as she also brought out her phone from her purse.

"Wow. I did not know Debby was a writer," Rose said amazed as she could relax. The were not talking about her, they were talking about a novel.

"You don't know anything about us," Anna said frowning.

"Oh come on, I know Debby is a makeup artist," rise replied smiling as she hoped it doesn't get anymore awkward than Anna made it with her statement.

"I don't like doing makeup for people except my friends but I do it because that is my family's business. I had to chose between being a makeup artist and being a dermatologist that's why I chose to become a dermatologist," Debby narrated with a sad smile.

"I . . ." Rose began thinking of a way to make it less awkward than it was.

"Oh come on, everyone has a talent most people don't know about," Eric tried to ease the tension in the air.

"You know Debby won an award few months ago right?" Anna asked Eric.

"Yes . . ." Eric answered before looking at Rose who looked like she had no idea what they were talking about.

"I am sorry Debby," Rose apologized as she began eating her lunch.

"You are really carefree, I envy you," Anna said standing up and left the room.

Rose did not know why her sister was angry with her but she remained seated as she continued eating her lunch. This was the first time she saw Anna that angry but she had no idea what to do as she continued eating her lunch.

She decided to talk to her sister later.
