Fake Princess
CHAPTER 78
I slept for the rest of the day and only woke up the next morning when one of the maids knocked on my door and told me that Paula was waiting for me downstairs.
“ He said a lesson about, oh, something magical,” Breta said as she returned to the door. “ I don't remember the words he said. But he said you should come with him, now.”
I quickly got out of bed, trying to tidy up my crumpled clothes while walking. As I reached for the comb on my desk, my hair looked as if it had been pegged to some birds. When I opened it I recognized Devan's handwriting.
Don't try to get up before you actually take a break! If you have, send one of the light messages and I'll come. In the meantime, I'm gonna talk to O, find out if he remembers anything about last night. And I'm gonna find out if anyone saw M. or D, wandering around the palace last night. Don't frown like that! I'll do it cleverly.
I realized that my forehead was indeed wrinkled, and that made me exhale in annoyance. Devan knows me very well. Even so, even his promise did not take away my fear. Maybe Devan found himself quite relaxed questioning Riana, but I was worried that her feisty nature could divulge everything. And if the traitor thinks Devan knows something about the second false princess, I shiver, and put the message down. “ Be careful, I whispered, then lifted the comb into my hair.
Today's weather was comfortable and sunny, with no clouds in sight, and I felt my mind clear as we walked. It seemed that I had recovered after getting tired of staying up late, and the shock I felt after seeing the event was already slightly muffled by time and distance.
The memory still felt sharp, but little by little I began to familiarize myself with the idea that Riana was not the real princess. Well, if only I knew what to do. Well, I'm gonna start by trying to sneak out of college and at least find Omar's room, so when I get back with Devan, we already know what kind of fortress we have to face.
We walked casually towards the campus, only stopping so Paula could check out the bird's nest that was blown into the street from a tree in the park. However, Paula said the nest was too damaged to use, so we left it there. After being on campus, we rushed towards one of the large lecture halls. During the years I spent as a princess, I visited several halls to attend various ceremonies, and these halls were not much different.
