Royal Princess: Doted On By The Mafia King

Chapter 10 - All Alone



It won't be hard to persuade her husband since her husband will simply lose his rationality when it comes to doing things to please her or getting her to forgive him.

Rose looked like a normal harmless fourteen years old child but she could not trust her. She looked just too innocent to have lived in an orphanage in Y country.

Y country was still a developing country although it was a country known for their very quality agricultural products and they do a lot of international trades. The seat of their wealth is the capital and most of the other states were not as developed as the capital.

Rose grew up in one of the other states and not the capital but she seemed to have lived a good life before coming into their family. The girl had a tanned skin obviously due to exposure to sun but she still looked beautiful. She watched as Rose cut the steak slowly and careful as though she had done it a lot of times.

On the first day she brought Anna into their home, Anna was so excited and could not help playing with everything she saw. Anna might have being almost a ten years younger then but that was a normal reaction from someone poor who was suddenly given a rich life to live.

.

Perhaps someone planned it all to make the girl appear in their home. Perhaps what happened to Anna was not a coincidence. Her grip on her fork tightened and she could not help but frown. If that was the case then she will not welcome this girl into their home.

A plastic surgery was more than able to give the girl that look. However, she was someone who had worked with a lot of people because of her profession and she could easily identify a fake beauty but this girl's beauty was very natural including her very unique eyes. Valerie simply concluded that since everyone has a look alike in this world, this was her sister's look alike.

Whoever sent her here must have searched far and wide to find someone with such similarities. Her thoughts simply made her cautious of Rose. Since Rose was a suspicious visitor, she could not find herself getting along with Rose.

After lunch, Rose stood up after them and bowed, "Thank you for the meal and everything you have given me. I will always be grateful."

Mr. Whitfred smiled with pride and nodded before holding his wife's hand and they left.

Mrs. Whitfred did not answer in any way and did not even spare Rose a glance as she allowed her husband to hold her hand. When they entered the elevator, she pulled her hand away from her hands as though his grip burnt her.

"Are you a fool?" she asked glaring at her husband.

"What do you mean?" Justin asked confused by the sudden change.

"Why will you bring someone like that here? She is only going to cause trouble. She looks too much like the late queen and you brought her here. What on earth made you not get any other child?" she asked very disappointedly.

"I thought you will find it easy to get along with her since she looked like you best friend."

She even found his answer more stupid. "You really are a fool. Who made you do it?" she could not help but ask because someone had to be behind it all.

"She is from an orphanage in Y country," he answered keeping out his friend's name. "I wanted to bring her for you and Anna. No one made me do it."

"Whatever," she simply said and walked out of the elevator.

Rose decided to go around the ground floor. There was a pool that formed an L shape protected from outside by a glass wall.

"Do you swim?" a female voice asked from behind her making her startled.

"Oh you scared me." she said placing her hand on her chest when she turned to see Ms. Mara.

"Sorry young miss," Mara apologized with a smile.

"My name is Rose. Rose is what you should call me," she corrected Mara immediately to appear as modest as she could.

"Miss Rose," Mara did not accept Rose's correction completely since it was expected of her to give respect to her employer's family adopted or not.

"Oh," Rose could only ohhed knowing that Mara was not going to call her by her name alone even if she corrected her again.

"Do you know how to swim?" Mara asked.

"No I don't. Do you?"

"Yes I do."

"Could you teach me?" she asked her eyes sparkling with excitement.

"I could get you a teacher. You will be home schooled from tomorrow. Your tutors will come by eight in the morning and leave when you want them to. During weekends, a music teacher and yoga trainer will come to teach you."

"Home schooled? Why home schooled?" she could not help but ask.

"This family has been a target for some time now. It will be best to stay at home till they find the person that hurt Miss Anna. It will . . ." Mara explained but stopped because she had spoken too much.

"Oh . . .," Rose murmured with a very uninterested look on her face to ease Mara.

"Is there anything else you want me to get for you?"

"A martial art trainer. I want to learn how to fight so that no one will hurt me," she said using Mara's mistake to get what she wanted.

"No the guards we have are well trained and trusted," Mara tried to assure her almost slapping herself for letting such information slip out.

"But I want to know how to protect myself," Rose tried to insist.

"Okay," Mara had to accept since it was all her fault.

"Thank you," Rose appreciated with a happy smile.

Who was Miss Anna by the way? She went upstairs and picked her laptop to check. This family had a baby who died when she was three years old and Anna was adopted two years later when she was four years old. Three months ago, Anna was kidnapped and abandoned after a week. Anna went into coma and she was still in the hospital.

She sighed before closing her closing her laptop and got up. No wonder the house was almost too secured to be the home of a sincere businessman and fashion designer.

***

It's been four weeks since she came into the Whitfred family and today, was just a normal day like every other day in the family. Rose had woken up by six in the morning to get prepared for her lessons. The tutors were nice and easy going. Today she will be studying mathematics and she felt like simply skipping the class.

She held her books tightly and walked out of the room. Subconsciously, she stopped in front of the door next to hers. It was closed. She sighed and kept walking. She was with her tutor on the first day she began her lessons when Miss Anna was brought in.

She was very curious. What does the girl look like? The house got a little busy with a doctor and two nurses around to take care of Anna. Just before she got to the elevator, the door behind her opened and a nurse walked out. Rose waited patiently for the nurse to enter the elevator.

The nurse smiled and she smiled back. Her eyes moved to the now closed door of Anna's room as she sighed. She wondered why she was so curious when it should be none of her business. She could not help but wonder what the kidnappers did to the poor girl that put her in coma.

Her new mother might be cold to her but she was the opposite when it came to Anna. She always visited Anna in the morning and evening. She was not expecting any kind of affection from her new parents but she always lied to herself that it won't mean anything if they were nice to her because she knew their kindness will touch her heart deeply.

"Is Mrs. Whitfred still in Miss Anna's room?" she asked the nurse when they stepped out of the elevator.

"Yes she is."

Since the first day she had lunch with the couple, she had been eating lunch alone. It was quite lonely to eat all alone in the large dining with nine empty chairs that she asked Mara to let her eat her food in her room.
