Chapter 134 Picking Rooms Part 1
“That sounds very Faith like.” Prince Lance commented as he finally caught up to us. Although, not even a second later, I heard a disgruntled snort coming from my side. I just hope these two do not get into some kind of brawl while living here. I don’t know how things are at the castle, but I do hope that they can get along while living under my roof. I kinda like that word ‘My roof’. It has a nice sound to it.
“Well, I am me and am not able to be anyone else even if I tried.” Well, unless I used my acting skill, but I do not plan to be anyone else unless there is a good reason for it.
“That is very true.” Prince Lance answered, which resulted in another snort. “Adel, are you going to be like this every time I speak?”
And now it has started. The brother-sister feud. “I have no idea what you are talking about, dear brother. Maybe you should stop talking and see if I treat you better. While you are at it, you can stop breathing as well.”-.
“I would die!” Prince Lance yelled out.
“Tch… Not as dumb as I thought he was.” Adel muttered in a not so low voice.
“I can hear you, you know!” I was actually finding this quite entertaining. Does this make me a bad person?
“If the two of you can not get along. Then I will have to kick the both of you out of the house and go along with Young Miss’s first idea and toss you some rope and some sheets to make tents. So either get along or sleep outside.” Jeeves stern voice filled the air causing the brother and sister combo to quickly shut up. I guess this is what happens when you take care of the royal children and are the one to always dish out punishment. Maybe this was why Adel panicked so much earlier. Since I had suggested it, she knew Jeeves would carry it out. Maybe this was the real reason why Jeeves came to work for me.
Now that I think about it….. Who is paying his salary…. I was starting to sweat. I had no money! All my money went to the company. How was I supposed to pay for my staff? This was bad…. Really bad! “Ummm, Adel…. About Jeeves’s and everyone else’s salary….”
“Hmmm? Father pays for it. What do you mean?” Adel answered, seemingly confused. But I, on the other hand, was internally pumping my fists. I mean, we just walked in, and I already see like thirty people standing here.
“Now then!” Jeeves clapped his hands as we came to a stop in the hall entrance. All the staff members quickly gathered together and stood behind him. And before I could ask what was going on. Jeeves, along with everyone else, bowed to me. “Young Miss, welcome home!”
Their voices echoed through the estate, causing me to feel a little flustered. This was my first time being treated as if I was royalty. It felt strange, but I am sure I will get used to it. I just hope I do not end up turning into one of those rich snobby girls I saw at the tea party. “Please raise your heads. There is no need to bow to me like that. Just act yourselves, please.”
“This is something that must be done, Young Miss. It is your first day in your new home. It should be treated as a grand occasion. Once you have selected your rooms, a welcoming party has already been prepared out in the back garden. I do hope you will enjoy it.” Jeeves replied with a smile. I was actually quite touched, but I hope they do not bow like this to me every time I come home. I do not think I will be able to get used to that.
“I thank you all for your hard work. I am sure I will enjoy it.” I said with a smile.
“Then allow me to bring you to your room Young Miss. As for the others, girls on the third floor and boys on the second floor.” Jeeves suddenly announced, causing me to be a bit confused. I can see splitting the girls and boys up, but why was I the only one following Jeeves?
I turned and looked at Adel for answers. Adel chuckled at my questioning gaze as she explained: “As the master of the house, you will always have the top floor of the home as your place of residents. I worked hard on renovating your room, so I hope you do like it. I will take Sophie and Sei to go pick rooms on the third floor. Once we are done, we will come up to see you.”
“I see..” I pursed my lips. While I would have been fine with a room like everyone else’s, I can not let Adel’s hard work go to waste. Plus, I was curious as to what it looks like. “Then I will see you all in a bit.”
I waved before turning and nodding my head to Jeeves, who then told me to follow him. The main entrance was huge, and I mean huge. Like you could fit my entire house from the village in the main entrance alone, well maybe I am exaggerating a little bit it was still very big. It had a set of stairs that led up to the second floor that had red wood railings and stairs with a soft red carpet adorning the steps. The main entrance’s floor was made out of what looked to be marble. But nothing too flashy, just a simple black with light gray swirls. Besides that, there were two doors on each side of the staircase that led to somewhere. I was not quite sure yet. I planned to take a tour later. For now, I was following Jeeves towards the left hallway. I did not get to get a good look myself when we pulled up to the estate, but I am really wondering just how far back the entire house goes.
