"I brought your painkillers madam" (Ruen, said)

After the nanny had dropped the bomb she left without another word.

That was the last Yeretzy saw of the nanny now that Ruen had come to the room with some painkillers.

"Ruen is Ariella here?" (Yeretzy, asked)

She asked as she took the painkiller.

"No Lady Ariella left. She won't come back after the end of the banquet" (Ruen, said)

"I see. Thank you." (Yeretzy, said)

With few words to exact Ruen dismissed herself leaving Yeretzy to wonder staring straight from her bed into empty space.

'....' (Yeretzy)

She stared in silence.

'He doesn't want me to attend his birthday party...still, even if he's that mad there's no reason for him to say that I can't even attend' (Yeretzy's inner thoughts)

'He's prohibited his own wife to come to his birthday party' (Yeretzy's inner thoughts)

'Turn'

She turned her head to the left and looked down.

'Then he won't mind if I drop off the present and leave right?' (Yeretzy's inner thoughts)

'Turn'

'Tik Tok, Tik Tok'

She looked at the clock

'The banquet is about to start' (Yeretzy's inner thoughts)

She thought with a bitter expression.

'Ding, Ding'

She reached for the bell and called for Ruen again.

"Yes madam?" (Ruen, asked)

Ruen came again.

"Can you help me prepare for the banquet?" (Yeretzy, asked)

"The banquet is about to start and I want to attend" (Yeretzy, said)

"But madam I heard that..." (Ruen, said)

Ruen said reculantly.

"Just help me dress up, I'm only going to stop by for a little and I will need help" (Yeretzy, said)

She said as she grabbed Ruen's hand giving her one of her jewels so she could convince her.

"Can you please help me?" (Yeretzy, asked)

She asked her with a teary face.

"Ah...well" (Ruen, said)

She lifted the jewel looking at its shine.

....

-Outside of Yeretzy's room-

"Madam but you have to come back soon then" (Ruen, said)

Ruen said with a worried tone, it wasn't that she was worried about Yeretzy it was that they be mad at Ruen for disobeying orders.

"Yes, I'll be back soon" (Yeretzy, said)

She innocently said as she waved goodbye.

'Yes, I've been successful!' (Yeretzy's inner thoughts)

She thought happily as she carried a gift box.

Luckily the banquet hall was not so far off since it was in the Dameria residency.

"Good, I'll just give it to him and come back!" (Yeretzy, said)
