Cadenza: This Esteemed Young Lady is Poisonous

Cadenza: Daughter of the Villainess is Poisonous XVII

Upon seeing Cadenza's figure Soarin's mood became much better. He eavesdropped...cough..ahem...'heard' about the rumor circling around the Academy about Cadenza giving out chocolates and he was waiting for his.

Cadenza was still busy handing out the papers to the student council members and thanking the guys who helped her. Cadenza finally shifted her head towards Soarin's direction, a charming smile that was brilliant as a diamond appeared in her beautiful face as she widened her arms.

Cadenza unexpectedly passed by Soarin's direction and she looked like she didn't even noticed he was there.

"Lottie!" Cadenza shouted in excitement as she hugged her cousin.

"Cadenza!" Lottie followed as both of them hugged each other like they haven't seen for several years even though they just hanged out the whole Saturday.

The two pranced hand in hand as they left the gym.

"I thought your school isn't participating in the School Championship" Cadenza looked at Lottie questionly.

"I did say that but I just wanted to surprise you" Lottie spoke teasingly as she laid her head in Cadenza's shoulder like a spoiled little girl.

"I heard about yesterday and how you splendidly handled Mrs Fukui, she had a reputation of being a hot tempered teacher and really competitive anyone that goes against her doesn't have a good ending, Cadenza you should be careful" Lottie added as she held Cadenza's shoulders and looked straight at Cadenza's pair of crystal clear eyes.

The two of them exchanged a few more words before Cadenza left hurriedly towards the student council's office. Prince Illycht has finished the school paperworks and was scanning through a few pieces of papers related to his Royal duties. Even in school he is still bringing his duties as a member of the Royal family, at this moment Cadenza felt a doubt with her feelings towards him.

After all he was a Prince and she was a daughter of a Mafia Boss. The identities they are born to are totally opposing each other wouldn't it be absurd to think if they end up together?

Cadenza only took a peek on his figure behind the door and an idea immediately came in to her mind.

How to make your crush fall for you 101 rule no.2 Learn how to cook.

"Young miss are you sure you don't want any assistance?" the Head chef asked as his forehead was profusely dripping with sweats. The kitchens staffs are also not sure how to handle such situation, this was the first time any student asked to use the main kitchen. After all the students in here are born with silverspoons in their mouths and couldn't even bother themselves touching a stove.

"Do I look like I'm completely helpless in the kitchen?" Cadenza's brows furrowed as she spoke like a confused little young lady that looks like she could be swept away by the wind anytime.

"Yes!!!" the head chef and the other Kitchen staffs shouted in their hearts yet they could only shook their head afraid of hurting Cadenza's feelings.

They could just clean up after her mess.

These fools doesn't know their doubts in her cooking abilities are completely showing in their faces.

Cadenza spoke in her mind as she proceeded in her cooking. Each ingredients she had in the table costs a fortune. A school made for the children of the people in the high society should met their high standards whether if it is food, clothing, servants and etc. should meet their expectations.

A school only consists of children from the high society isn't just about learning and making friends it's about competition, socializing with people, pleasing the children from powerful families, showing off your skills and abilities, observing possible rivals, boasting extravagance and fame.

Those who can't meet these things doesn't have a place in the Academy.

The people in the kitchen were amazed
as they watched Cadenza's skilled cooking techniques. Not only skilled in cutting but also cooking with flames in the frying pan. Cadenza was proudly smiling as she garnished her perfectly cooked chicken breast drizzled with white wine sauce coupled with grilled asparagus and bowl of creamy mushroom soup.

Take that big brother!

Cadenza screamed in her heart remembering how her maliciously tyrant older brother made her cook and ended up serving him boiled vegetables. Cadenza evily laughed on the inside.

The head chef praised Cadenza's cooking skills and also she made everyone's impression of her improved.

Prince Illycht finally put down the last piece of his paper work. He has been staying up these past few days rushing to finish all paperworks so he could at least enjoy the School Championship and relax.

"Your highness it's already lunchtime I've delivered your meal, please eat" such formal words coming out from Cadenza's mouth is truly unbelievable if Salvatore and Winston were to hear her words they would have doubted if their hearing had already gone bad.

Prince Illycht watched as Cadenza placed food on his desk.

"Thanks, how about you?" Prince Illycht's voice was like music in Cadenza's ears.

"Don't worry about me your highness!! I've already ate" Cadenza was startled by the sudden question as she tightly hugged the tray in her chest.

Truth to be told she hasn't even eaten her lunch, she just wanted to see her Prince Charming eat first.

"Your highness what do you think about your food?" Cadenza couldn't help but spout the words she was eagerly wanted to say. She really wanted to know his answer!!

"It's good" Prince Illycht replied as he continued to eat.

"Don't bother yourself with the plates let the maidservants do it. One more thing I've already finished my paperworks so you can spend the whole afternoon with your friends" Prince Illycht spoke as he wiped his mouth with a napkin and immediately stood up and left.

Cadenza looked at the half eaten food with disappointment.

"Such a waste"

They said the best way to win a man's heart is through his stomach. It seems like she had to step up her game.

"Lottie!!" Cadenza cried in grievances.

"What a bastard who does he think he is not to being able to appreciate what a good food is" Lottie replied as she continued to stuff her mouth with food.

"Don't worry Cadenza-chan~ your cooking is simply divine" Lottie added as she moved her fork in circular motions pointing at Cadenza.

"My heart just can't take it" Cadenza clenched her heart dramatically as she laid her face on the table.

"If you're not going to eat your lunch others will~" Cadenza looked at her cousin with a blank face as Lottie started to attack her plate.
