'She is drowning, but no one can see her suffering. She is dying, but no one is willing to save her. She is begging for mercy, but no one...' A crisp knocking sound echoes inside the room. A young lady lifts her hand that holds a feather plume and stop writing. She momentarily stares at the door before saying something. "Come in." A young maid carefully opens the door. She bows her head a little to give her respect toward him. The young lady noticed that the maid who entered her room is holding a small tray in her hands. There is a glass of water and a bottle of pills on the tray. "Young miss, this is the medicine that you asked from me." "...Oh." The maid lifts her head and sees a young lady sitting on a chair who is currently writing something in her journal. She has soft, bluish-silver hair, a pair of blue-colored eyes, a high-bridged nose, and soft lips. The bright sunlight coming from the window is hitting her face. When she tilts her head a little, with the addition of the

In the middle of the night, there are two figures silently walking behind the Royal Palace. One is wearing a black swallow-tailed suit and is holding a small lamp in her right hand. The other one is wearing a hooded coat and silently following the young lady dressed as a male butler in front of her. "Butler Dennie, is the Crown Prince doing well in the palace?" Charlotte suddenly asked. "Yes, Lady Charlotte.” Butler Dennie simply replied. Charlotte secretly left their mansion with Butler Dennie. She decided to meet the prince while there are no prying eyes that can notice her disappearance. Charlotte also left Annie in the mansion to pretend to her on the bed in case the Count or the Countess suddenly visits her room at night.

In all fairness, Charlotte did not expect the prince to suddenly invite her in the middle of the night. She remembered telling

The next day, Butler Mel knocks on Charlotte's door and gently calls her name. The butler patiently waits for the young lady to open the door. Soon, he hears soft footsteps from the inside before the door opens revealing Charlotte who is already finished dressing up. "Good morning, Lady Charlotte." Butler Mel respectfully said. "Count Byron sent me here to tell you that the breakfast is now served." "I see." Charlotte replied. "Then I will go now and meet them." After closing the door, Charlotte starts walking while the old butler is following her from behind. Just like the scenario yesterday, the servants are greeting her but Charlotte ignores them. At this point, the servants are now used to their lady's aloofness and did not take her actions to heart. So after greeting her, they continue their work again.

After that, the Count cried in front of her. Count Byron gently held her hands and said she must be his daughter whom he's been looking for decades now. Charlotte did not say anything and the Count thought she did not believe his words. Count Byron did not waste more time and asked if she can come with her to the temple. The high priest can help them verify if they are related by blood or not. Sensing the desperation from the Count, Charlotte decided to follow him to the temple. After they met the high priest and greeted him, he brought them inside the temple where the fountain of truth was waiting for them. The high priest scooped water into it using a golden bowl and placed it in front of them. He instructed them to put a drop of their blood in the water. If the water gives a blinding glow after their blood is mixed in it, that means they are related. Right after Charlotte and Count Byron put a droplet of their blood on the bowl, the water showed them blinding light and proved tha

When the Daffodil Blooms CHAPTER 7
