Irene The Lady Who Turned Down Fate - Chapter 213

“(Ha…how long has it been since sister last wrote me a letter? Probably a month or maybe …ever since she started her new business, her life got more hectic to the extent that she rarely has time for herself leave writing me a letter…)”

.

“Just when would I be able to return?” Ashton talked to himself while looking through the letters he received which were mostly form Irene and Raymond while some were form Hana and among them one belonged to…

.

“I almost forgot about this one…*opens the letter and a yellow dried rose slips down it.*…” He said with a smile as he looked into that clumsily written letter.

“Who would believe that this letter was written by a 8 year old kid when it has so many mistakes and errors in it…” He said while gently folding the letter and keeping it indie the book.

.

“(Sam…this was your first and last letter to me…and already 5 years passed but you didn’t try to contact me ever again…I wonder if you still remember this friend of yours?)” He thought as he finished his food and walked towards the classroom and as soon he opend the door.

.

The first thing he saw was the three male God he wanted to avoid were already in the class with a bright smile on their faces.

“Hey Ashton! Come quick we saved a seat for you.”

.

“Ha, this guy’s must be too bored….I really thought today would be my day it I guess not.” Ash talked talked himself as he dragged himself towards the seat they saved for him and sat down there like a good kid.

.

“Hey, what did you have for breakfast?”

“Why don’t you go and see for yourself, Harris.”

“I am not in mood to do so…and *the teacher enters the room*…I will talk to you later.”

.

“Everyone regurn to your seats and please listen to the announcement.” The teacher said as he clapped his hands and out of sudden a whute crystal ball appeared in front of everyone’s desk.

.

“Wow! What is this? Teacher are you going to Show us how to predict future?”

“Or maybe we can use this as light bulb or as a decoration?”

Some of the kids said as they joked around.

.

*Ahem* *Ahem*

“Enough with the jokes and pay attention to what I am going to say. All of you here come form different background and have been working and studying together for 5 years and sure you have achieved something on your own grounds.

.

And since you are all so excellent we have decided to end this year semester a month earlier which means, if you pass through today’s test the you can go home tomorrow.” The teacher said and river of happiness started flowing through the students side as thue started jumping and whispering around.

.

“Return home” Ash said as he stood form his seat with a smile all of sudden which sacred the other 3 who were sitting near him.

.

“Hey we get that you are very much excited but can you not jump suddenly, you almost forgave me a mini heart attack.” Harris said while Alfred Chuckled.

“Shut up! And how come you aren’t excited?” Ashton asked as he tuend around.

.

“Hmm, what do you mean? We are returning home so I am happy but why should I be excited?” Harris asked while raising one for his eyebrows.

“Are you really not aware of–”

.

“Syop taking all of you and get ready for the test.” The teacher said as he damledd his hands on his desk and the room went silent.

“5 years…then Ashton would this be Irene’s 16 ball?”

.

“Yes, not only hers but also…”

“Rose…”

“Sister…”

“Debut ball, which I don’t need to explain how important is, so I need to do well and pass anyhow.”

.

Meabwhile at the Winter Mansion,

“What a beautiful day~~” Irene said as she smiled while stretching her arms.

“My Lady, you should take more breaks like this, staying indoor inside those four walls isn’t healthy.” Hana said as she looked at Irene who was in a good mood today which was a rare site to see espically when she has to work overtime.

.

“I know right, staying outdoors with this flowers, sunlight…is so pleasent….and this insects, heat and sweat are making this more exciting, don’t you think so Hana.”

“–My–My–Lady..”

“(She is obviously in cranky mood…I told her so many times that she should sleep after woking overtime but no she won’t ever listen to me and now she will keep roaming around and her savage personality would come out.)”

.

*sigh*

“My Lady if you don’t like it out here we can go inside…”

“Hana! You only said inside is unhealthy.”

“But My Lady aren’t you uncomfortable outside?”

“But inside..”

.

“Hana let her be.” A voice said and both of them turned around and Irene face which was sour turned sweet within a second.

“Molly!!” Irene said as she ran towards that girl with short brown hair tied in bun, her built was bigger then that of Irene and her olive coloured eyes were clear and sharp. (Molly 18 years old)

.

“Irene! You are not trying trying kill me are you?” Molly said as Irene hugged her so tightly that she pulled hardly breath properly not to mention her kinght’s uniform was already making things hard for her.

.

“Come on, you are a knight this much won’t kill you.”

“Really? But I am human and it’s warm here.”

“I agree with that! Hana prepare soem snacks for us in my room. Let’s go inside.” Irene as she pulled Molly inside the mansion.

“Kids…it’s still spring..” Hana said as she shook her head and followed them.

.

While Irene is dealing with mood swings, Ash was going through some serious troubles which was going to change his live…

.

“Now everyone place your ajdns in the crystal and focus all your power in the center of your head.” The teacher said and everyone folowd his words.

“Keep focusing and don’t break your concentration until I say so.”

.

The teacher walked around the classroom and slowly Eveyone’s crystal ball started glowing up some were very dim while some were too bright.

But there was one kid whose crystal didn’t seems to glow up but instead it blowed up. Which shocked eveyone including the kid and the teacher.

.

“Why? Why did it blow away? Teacher did I do something wrong? Will I not be able to go home?” The kid who was no other then Ashton asked as he become anxious.

“He is the topper and yet this is his skill?”

“He is all book smart.”

The kids who obviously didn’t like him said as they laughed at his mistake.

.

“You guys forgot to add his swordmanship skills.” Harris said as he smiled at them while clenching his fists.

“Why would we add that…he is a monster in field.” One of the student said and thr trio male God laughed while Ashton who didn’t give a Damm about thier jokes was still waiting for the teacher to explain the cause of this explosion.

.

“Teacher?”

“Ashton…come out with me and the rest return to your dorms.” The teacher said and with a clap both of them disspaered form there.

.

“Ashton!” Three of them said as they stood form their seats.

“Where did they vanish too?” Alfred said as he sighed.

.

“Your Highnesses, Young Grace aren’t you being a little too protective towards him. He is not a kid he is already 13, he knows what he should  do and our teacher won’t hurt him.” A kid form the class said as he bowed towards them.

.

“Who are you?” Harris asked as he looked at theta kid form top to bottom.

“I–”

“Whoever you are, you should know that Intrupting someone is not a bad habit futhermore we don’t even know each other so, it would would better if you don’t give us your free words.” Alfred said as he took his books and left the room along with Harris and Alan.

.

“…I was just being genuine…” That kid said as he kicked Ashton’s seat and left the classroom.

.

“Alfred you did the right thing by shutting him up…but he wasn’t completely wrong. We are too protective of Ashton.” Harris said as he stopped in his tracks so did the other two.

“He is a kid too and he has his privacy so shouldn’t we give him some space?”

.

“Harris you think we don’t want that…the only reason we are like this is only because Irene…wished for it. She was worried for Ashton so she insured him to us and for thr 5 years we have seen with our own eyes how bad things can happen. So no matter what happens for the last 1 or 2 days bear it..” Alan said as he walked towards the direction where Ash was waking too or more like troding.
