Giselle looked around in amazement. This was the first time he could see the Aspendia palace with his own two eyes.
"Welcome to my palace, Giselle," Bianca said as she greeted guests with respect.
"I've prepared a room for you two. Calius, take them to both of them."
"Well, your honor," meanwhile, Bianca noticed the presence of Kay and Gerda peeking not far from her.
"You're gonna want to talk to me, aren't you?" they both nodded steadily.
"Come here, we'll spend some time in the palace garden."
Bianca sat down while looking around her. This was the first time he had seen the central palace garden. Compared to him who often went to the eastern garden of the palace.
And also, he felt that someone was familiar with this place.
"Your highness..." Bianca glanced at Kay.
"What's up, Kay? You want to say something?" Kay glanced at Gerda while Gerda moved her head hinting at something.
"La-anu... His majesty... May I-I want to ask you?"
"certain... What is it, Kay?" Kay gulped down on her own, then she said, "Is your majesty sick?"
Bianca instantly silent a thousand languages heard Kay's question.
"Do you know where you're from?"
"Ouch... We will definitely be scolded," said Gerda afraid.
"We accidentally heard from Doctor Atkinson and uncle a few days ago."
Bianca took a long breath. "You don't have to worry about my condition right now. The important thing is, you have to learn to be strong and smart, okay?"
They both nodded. Suddenly Bianca saw a shower that was no stranger to her.
"You two. You can go inside and follow Ivan in the kitchen."
The two of them just nodded without any answer and immediately left the queen alone.
Bianca then walked towards a very large water fountain.
If not wrong, Vina had a dream where Bianca (original) and a man named James were talking there.
He approached the shower and a large wind fluttered the queen's white hair.
He looked back where the afternoon sky had arrived.
Unknowingly and controlled by Vina herself, the woman shed her tears down her face and mentioned someone's name, "James..."
...****************...
Both of his eyes immediately opened wide and immediately acted as sitting upright while sighing deeply.
A knock on the door made the man tell him to come in.
"What's calling me, chief?" isabella walked up to the head of the organization.
The chief ruffled his hair furiously then, he said, "What about his Aspendai stone, Bella?"
"It's still the same as yesterday, chief. But slowly but surely, the stone grew blacker and reacted very negatively."
He stood up and walked past Bella. "Take the cook to prepare dinner."
"Now, chief?"
"Yes. And also call me when dinner's over, I want to sleep."
Bella let out a long sigh in confusion, actually what happened to the chairman?
After the chairman left, Bella followed out of the chairman's office and saw Chris who was walking the other way.
"When you report to the chairman?" chris asked when he saw Bella.
Bella nodded steadily. "And now he tells me to tell the chef to prepare his dinner."
"Eat dinner? Now then? Tumben..." Bella just shrugged her shoulders.
"Actually I'm also confused as to why the chairman wants dinner now."
"By the way." The two of them talked while walking together, then Chris stopped walking followed by Bella.
"Are you feeling not weird about Allan lately?"
"You don't feel anything weird, Bella?"
"I'm too busy with the Dobert area, Chris. Just taking care of Allan is getting tired."
"But... Why are you asking like that?" bella asked and they both walked back.
"You remember, right with the Admand Stone? Allan wanted to trace the stone, but the chairman wouldn't allow it."
"Continue?"
"Suddenly Allan was upset by the chairman's decision and left without saying anything."
Bella who heard it immediately thought hard. Somehow both the chairman and Allan have the same secret, but the goal is different.
...****************...
Meanwhile, Giselle heaved a sigh of relief while shaking her waist in exhaustion. He cleaned his room and his father's new room.
Understandably, the servants in this palace are just Calius. He wondered why the queen had dismissed all the servants in the palace and left only the butler.
"Sister's done cleaning his room?" tanya Gerda peeked behind the door of Giselle's room.
"really. What's up?" ask Giselle.
"Said Ivan, you have to eat a snack first while you wait for dinner to arrive."
"Ah... Not necessary. I don't want to eat any more snacks now."
Giselle looked at Gerda's sad looking expression making herself feel guilty.
"Yes already... I'll be there, but you take a little doang, yeah..."
Finally they both went to the kitchen, where there was Ivan, the polar white bear who was making dinner dishes of the palace soldiers and Kay who was helping Ivan.
"Ah... Miss has come apparently!! Be sitting... I've prepared a snack for you."
Giselle sat down next to Gerda and tasted Ivan's handiwork.
"It's really delicious!" he did not expect the snack made by Ivan was very good.
"That's why I'm done here," hearing the bear chef's answer, Giselle asked again.
"So... Previously not a palace chef?"
"No. Before that, I worked at a five-star restaurant. But, during the 2 years of work, I met the noble queen who was visiting there."
"Who saw my cooking ability finally brought me to the palace and made me a palace chef."
Giselle nodded in understanding. "I just heard the story from Ivan" said Kay innocently.
"Of course, young master. Ali didn't tell you that."
"That means Calius is also dong?" kay suddenly said.
Gerda looked at her friend sharply.
"Haha.... Da... It can be said that way. The first time I went to this palace was also like you, surprised why there were no workers here."
"But I am very happy and grateful to the noble who found me at that time."
Later, Ivan sees Giselle eating. "If it's not wrong, you're Miss Giselle, right? You look a lot like your father."
"Ah... Thank you very much, sir..."
"Call me Ivan, miss," Ivan picked up an empty plate and washed it.
"I heard that you will be assigned as a noble assistant, right?" ivan changed the topic.
"Yes... His Majesty suddenly made an offer to me. Said I have a talent that can be used in the future."
Ivan smiled as he washed the dishes.
"Indeed... Indeed, the noble one is not wrong to recruit people."
"Iwana... Ivan, what was it?" gerda asked the white bear.
"Ah... It's okay."
Then Giselle and Gerda help Ivan and Kay prepare dinner.
