The Neglected Princess
4. Best Plan
On the way home, Emma asks what exactly does Olivia want to do? he expresses his mind and heart, if he is worried. Emma doesn't want her in danger.
"I'm not surprised by his reaction. Emma cares so much for Olivia that she is willing to do anything for Olivia. So, it's only natural that she's expressing all her grievances." Olivia's inner.
"Hm ... Emma ... Look, I don't know or don't want to know your worries. I just want to be stronger. You want me to keep getting bullied? look what happened to me, I was bullied by bad boys and couldn't get back at them. I don't want to be like that anymore. If I can be strong by training, why not. Besides, I'm practicing all I can not over-train. Do you understand my explanation?" olivia tried to convince Emma.
Emma nodded her head, "Yes, Miss. I've understood. I'm sorry, I'm too worried" Emma said.
Olivia smiled, "It's okay. I'm glad you're worried about me. Oh, yes, Emma .. I want you to keep this a secret from anyone. Be it Dad, or Brother, or anyone else in the castle. Can you keep this a secret?" ask Olivia.
"Are you planning to pretend to be weak in front of others, but are you actually a strong person? some kind of disguise?" ask Emma.
Olivia was shocked, "Umh, yes ... like that more or less." replied Olivia smiling.
Olivia shook her head slowly. He likes the plain side of Emma and her sensitivity. Olivia thinks that Emma's character fits the book. Brave and very, very sensitive, also quick to respond. Although sometimes her mind leads to something else, Emma's mind thinks of something that makes sense.

Olivia's having dinner. Just like at breakfast, he ate dinner alone. Emma serves Olivia, serving Olivia dinner. Emma wishes her dinner would be appropriate for Olivia.
"Until when to continue eating alone. Didn't Olivia's father and two sisters want to eat with Olivia? did they hate that much for Olivia?" olivia thought.
"Emma .. " call Olivia.
"Yes, Miss?" answer Emma.
"Because I'm tired of eating in this kind of atmosphere. From tomorrow I'll have breakfast and dinner in the room. In the afternoon I would eat in the greenhouse or in the garden, or anywhere but the dining room. Understood?" ask Olivia to look at Emma.
"I get it, Miss. " replied Emma.
Olivia ate only a little, because she felt that she did not eat nasfu. Olivia felt strange, even though the food served was so luxurious. However, there was something stuck in his heart that he could not reveal.
"I'm done. And take a walk in the park" said Olivia, leaving the dining room.
Emma walked hurriedly following Olivia. Emma did not dare to ask why Olivia only ate a little, she was afraid Olivia was angry and offended because Olivia's mood seemed to be in a bad state.
"What else does Miss think of Master Duke and the two Young Masters? Miss must have missed the three of him so much." Emma's inner.
"Miss, what do you think?" ask Emma.
"I'm just bored, Emma. I want a new atmosphere and a lot of new activities" Olivia said.
Emma was silent, as if she was thinking about something. Suddenly Emma thought to invite Olivia to see a horse race that will be held in the near future.
"I-it, Miss .. mmm .. it .. " said Emma hesitated.
Olivia paused and turned to look at Emma, "What's wrong, Emma? what are you gonna say? just say it," said Olivia.
"W-w-would you like to go see a horse race with me? usually the nobles spend time on many things, including going to the racetrack. Sometimes also to the house of the auction, to the house of fashion and jewelry. If you are bored at home, you can go anywhere you want, right? after all, you have a lot of money to use, all this time you are always frugal to the point that I am sad. Another miss where there is something as frugal as you who only spend a few gold coins in a month." explained Emma at length revealed her heart.
Olivia was silent at the thought of Emma's words. She smiled because Emma was helping her. Olivia approaches Emma and tells her that Emma is very reliable. Olivia knew what she had to do.
"True you said, Emma. From now on I just need to do the things I love without caring about anything. Right, right?" said Olivia.
Emma nodded her head, "Yes, like it could have been. Do you want to do something?" ask Emma.
"Yes, I want to raise as much money as possible for my future" Olivia replied.
Emma was shocked, "A-what do you mean? didn't you already get the monthly money from Lord Grief? even this month's money alone is still untouched" Emma said confusedly.
"That's not my money .. ah, I mean it's Dad's money. I want to make my own money from now on. So in the future, will you do me a favor, Emma? I'll give you a separate bonus from your salary as my servant" Olivia explained.
Emma smiled and nodded her head, "Of course, Miss. I will faithfully devote my soul and body to you" Emma said.
"good. From now on, besides the waiter, you are my secretary. Take note of my personal money going in and out. Oh ... also note the amount of money that Dad gave, of course, in separate books" said Olivia.
Emma recalls the word Nonanya. Olivia smiled, saying she would go to the racetrack and bet there. Emma was worried, could it be that Nonanya would be fine, if she bet? because Olivia served Emma never once glanced at anything other than learning and learning. He felt strange, suddenly Nonanya wanted to bet on the racetrack.
"Is this okay? I'm not making trouble, am I?" inner Emma worried.
"good. With this I can raise a lot of money just in case. Emma was very helpful. The racetrack is where I dredge for treasure. Hahahaha ..maybe only I know, which horses will be the winners tomorrow. Hihihi .. The best plan is to collect money and get rich. In real life I had to work hard part-time until giving tutoring for extra money. However, in this world, where the storyline is in my head and I just have to remember it, then I will make the impossible in my real world, possible here." inner Olivia pleased.
Emma frowned, she saw Nonanya smiling herself like a madman. Emma felt sorry for Olivia, her mind was already thinking all sorts of things.
