Dark Princess

Coming from the Same Place

The contract signature process went well. When skinning the details of the clauses written in the agreement letter one by one, there is nothing that needs to be disputed or corrected. Both sides seemed to understand and agree and thus the document was signed quickly.

I ordered Drey to bring the middle-aged woman over to discuss the schedule during the preparation process. So I can stay in that room alone with Chanel. They also move quickly. The atmosphere was silent for a moment as soon as they left the room. I looked at him who was still elegant, dumbfounded and calm. Shouldn't he be able to get a little nervous, at least because the one before him was a handsome man? Ah. There's no need. Because Lucian Warren is much more handsome, even though he is old. I grunted softly, irritatedly, and tried to control myself. I kept in mind that he knew nothing, so it was inappropriate to get the target of my anger.

“I know... We are both from the same place, despite growing up in different places..” He said suddenly, still calmly, still quietly, expressionless and it made my book suddenly stand up all over. I'm goosebumps. I looked into his eyes, trying to understand the direction of his speech. Does that mean he knows everything I know? But crazy! Can he know we're from the same place? I was stunned for a long time, fixated on looking into his eyes, as quickly as possible trying to return my expression to a normal state somewhat no less mentally than him. Is it possible because he's been there until he's 20 years old that he seems so good at playing this kind of mind. I murmured in my heart.

“What do you mean? What does it mean we are both from Singapore?” I'm trying to deviate from the real story. Because it's so weird for me that he could know. If it's Jade, it makes sense. They're very similar. Me? We are not at all similar.

“You know what I mean. We are from the same palace. But since you're a man, we must have separated once you were born. Every baby boy, will be released as soon as possible.” He replied frankly with emphasis. At this level, I know, I can't squint. I'm getting creepy. Fear ruled my entire existence. One of the most important things, if yes we are from the same palace, doesn't that mean that Jade and I have the same blood relation? Ah, it's too early to conclude Earnest. Look, you two are not at all alike. That's some bullshit. And one more thing, should be more careful talking and acting. He looks very shrewd. He really is a graduate of that hell palace, which is ripe. He lived there from baby to adult. His mindset must have been very honed and formed. I'm waking myself up. And decided, that we should really get into that topic bluntly.

“How do you know that we are from the same place?” I returned to a quiet position.

“It is very easy to detect our appearance and appearance. Perfect. Physically and intelligently, we are perfect. Because we are born from the DNA of choice, not just anyone. Look at you, there's almost nothing wrong. Starting from the height, shape and facial features, although I have to say that you are not too handsome, you are perfect. And your record of achievement since childhood, indicates that you are a genius. That easy. One more thing, your DNA can not be found anywhere..” Ah. Meanwhile, I can tell because he really looks like Jade. I digested every word carefully. And I feel very unhappy. I think that my life is safe and private, no one knows. It turned out that these people, could clearly detect who I was. Maybe all this time, when my face and profile were free to cross and mill around in national and international media, they could detect that I was one of them. The insolent! I cursed in my heart.

“We have never been rash in detecting our people mr.Lee. And you need to know, we never talk non-sense. We should only talk if we know that something is the truth. Not making things up. I hope you are too. And I know, you insisted that meeting me in this meeting was to confirm this. Signing a letter of agreement can be done by a representative with a power of attorney. My agency leader already has my power of attorney. Now, say what do you mean to meet me now?” Waw! She was acting like a queen. Not a princess anymore. Is it because he was the chosen one who became Lucian Warren's companion? Such an extremely strong mental attitude like this was truly rare. Especially for someone who had just come out of the palace isolated from the outside world. Again, I suspect, there must be people who teach him intensely about the way people live in the real world while still being able to control his way of thinking like people in an isolated palace.

Attractively. I devised a lightning-fast plan. Should I ask him first how he was here? With who?

“Do you know all this from the beginning? Or since this contract offer came to your side?”

“I knew from the beginning. I was able to access the database, information about every individual who came out of the palace. But identifying you is very easy because it can be found anywhere on the internet. For some missing people, we still do a search.” My eyes blink, surprised. I remember Jade. Did they also conduct a search for Jade? Wh-wh-what for?

Fear is back in my heart. It was cold, freezing. My tongue suddenly staggered. Sell me when I was a baby so that my life history would be erased? It's nonsense. They know everything. They're monitoring. They saw all my activities as long as I lived. That feeling is scary. I was never a free man like my father expected. Is that really these people? They can know we're anywhere. But for what?
