Miriana's POV,
They just came inside just like that???? How can they just bypass me like that?
"Hey , why aren't you closing the door? We are going to discuss something with you.So close the door quickly. " , said the stern looking woman while glaring at me again. She is ordering me. But I am a noble lady and she's probably a maid. Cause she's always hanging around with either the butler or my current mother.
" Mom, I think I have to knock out this so called young lady again. She just doesn't understands what is good for her.", said alice with a smirk on her face. Then that stern looking woman started to laugh menacingly.
"..."
I am really speechless. Who admits their crime like that? Does she shave some screws loose in her brain?? Well, I suspected her too , but isn't she just too nonchalant about knocking me out?
And this stern looking woman is Alice's mother!!!!! They don't look alike at all !!!! To me, it looks like the stern looking woman is the bad witch and this alice is snow white. Uhhh....where is my mind running around. I should focus on this situation more.
I directly asked Alice," Why did you knocked me out ??For what reason??"
I don't like to beat around the bush so let's just get over with this. Give me good reason. So that you can get spared from my wrath.
However Alice just snickered at my questions. Then she looked at her Mother and asked her " Is something wrong with her head? Why is behaving like that?? Did she finally gone insane??" Then she looked at me and asked while sneering, " You don't want to stay in this mansion anymore??Do you want to go back to the north again? Do you want the duke couple to abandon you again?"
"I guess she really wants to go back to the north. After all she doesn't belong here. The Duke and the Duchess only care about their own children. And she's just a nobody that got lucky to be here." said the stern looking woman while crossing her arms.
So I am not related to this family. Is that what she meant by her words. That's strange! If I am really not their biological daughter then why'd they go out of their way to act careful and cautious around me. On top of that this is medieval era where blood relationship comes first.
"You should be quite if you want to stay with this family. Don't be a nuisance. " , Alice's mother said while walking towards me."Why aren't you closing..."
I looked over at Alice and saw that she was smiling. It gave me the feeling that this smile was the most evil smile I have ever seen. Ok..that's a bit exaggerated. I have seen lots of people like that. They always think they are justified and no one will do anything to them because of their evil actions.
At least I know now, who knocked me out. So whatever I do from now on , will be just revenge. Not something called bullying.
I walked towards Alice while pushing down Alice's mother.
Alice's mother fell on her butt."Huhhh .ouch" Alice's mother cried out in pain.
I just ignored that woman and walked towards Alice. Alice wanted to go to her mother but I stopped her. I stood in front of Alice and looked at her eyes. Even her eyes were saying that she looks down on me. But I was one looking down at her right now. Cause I am at least 8 inches taller than her.
However this girl is quite a good actress. She would have really won some awards if she were to go to 21st century. But she doesn't have that fortune.
"WHY DID YOU PUSH MY MOTHER.."
"Look behind." I said to alice while pointing my left hand towards the wall behind her.
"WHAT...YOU.."
"I SAID LOOK BEHIND " I said to Alice again while pointing my left hand towards the wall behind her. Alice wanted to say something but I just cut her off. She looked a little taken aback. I guess I looked scary right now.
When Alice looked behind , I just hit her on the left side of neck. Then....she just fell down. Okay that was swift. My fighting skills are still with me. Hmmmmm.... I knocked out Kilian with my tricks before too.
I think I hit her pretty hard. Oh well...she deserves it. First she deceived me with her innocent looks.."..."
But it ....probably....was ...my ...fault...that...I got deceived by her innocent looks.
"SIGH."
Ok that was big sigh. I looked over at Alice's mother and saw she was standing beside me. She wasn't standing too close. But when did she come near me ?And she already stood up. I pushed her a little hard too. She was looking at her daughter and she looked terrified. She doesn't look stern anymore.
Alice's mother said while stuttering, "How. .. you...you..." She was pointing her finger towards me.
Then she suddenly kneeled down and started begging for her life. " Please don't do anything to Alice, my lady. Uhuhuh...please forgive us my lady..uhuhuhu ....Please let us go.....uhuhuh.....We..."
" Is someone standing behind me? And do you really think I would care about that?", I asked Alice's mother with a snicker.
Seriously!!!!!!!! These people!!!!! I took a deep breath and said to Alice's mother with a serious face , " Listen carefully woman, I am not scared of anyone. And definitely not of you and your daughter. Nor anyone in this mansion. So.."
"What is happening here?"
Ok , so someone was really here. But this voice....
I looked behind and saw my current parents standing there. What are they doing in my room at this hour? So did this mother-daughter dou called my current parents here beforehand, so that they could see me like this ?
" Duchess....oh..Duchess...please save us..the lady is ...uhuhu..trying to ...kill us
..uhuhuh..." said Alice's mother while running towards my current mother.
At times like this shouldn't you run to the family head? Why are you going to the Duchess? And my current father is looking at me like, he already expected I would do something like this one day. Well his expression says it all. I guess I have to ask Kiana about more history of this family.
"They are the ones who tried to harm me first. " I said with a firm voice.
Of course they are going to believe me. Even if they don't believe me, they probably wouldn't punish me for this. Cause I am noble lady and my parents are also noble. They wouldn't punish their daughter over some maid. ...hmmm....okay that was arrogant of me.
It hasn't even been one day properly since I found myself as a noble but I am already thinking like one. And on top of that thinking like a vicious noble!!!!!!!! Let's not be too obvious.
I wanted to proof myself innocent so I started to say," I mean they suddenly came to my room..."
" Oh...Duchess....oh..Duchess please save us..from...lady...Miriana..Please save my daughter.....oh..Duchess...", said Alice's mother while cutting my sentence. Anyone can tell just by glance that this Alice's mother is faking her tears. But I am not sure about my current parents vision.
I suddenly noticed Kiana was also there. She was standing behind my current mother. She was wearing a white dress and a shawl on top of that. Is that dress a pajama? Do I also have one like that? It looks beau..
" Miriana, why aren't you answering my questions? Just tell me exactly what happened here. "
"Huh" I looked at my current mother and saw she was looking at me. "Umm.....can you repeat that question?" I asked my current mother. I got lost in my daydreams again.
Well it's a habit that I just can't seem to change no matter how much I tried. Now that I think about it most of the time I daydream about that dream man. I think about him so much that, I couldn't even focus on my researches sometimes. Am I going to dream about him again tonight?
"..." LOL....It sounds like I can't wait to meet him. I am daydreaming again!!!! Focus on the situation....focus...focus.
" Did you knocked down Alice? And If you really knocked her down, what was the reason behind that?" ,asked my current mother to me.
I pondered for a moment. Cause even if I give them solid reason behind this incident and they still don't believe me. Then what? Hmmm it doesn't matter. They are not my parents. They are this Miriana 's parents. Hump.
Then I took a deep breath and started to say, " Because Alice knocked me out before. I meant after lunch when I came back to my room, she knocked me down from behind without any reason. And now she came to my room and started saying rubbish. So I just.."
" How can you lie...like..that..my..lady...Alice
is just..a little girl....my..lady..I know you want to save yourself from punishment...but.don't lie like that my...lady..uhuhuhu" said Alice's mother while cutting me off again.
" You are lucky there is no CCTV camera in this room. Or else you wouldn't be so dramatic like some third rate villains. You wouldn't have tried to justify yourself then." I said while pointing my fingers towards her. Then I looked over at my current mother again and said, "They even said.."
"WHAT DID YOU SAY ?REPEAT IT .REPEAT."
