Royal Princess: Doted On By The Mafia King

"I'm sleeping here," Debby said walking into the first room she found downstairs.

"Good enough, after all that was the guest room," Anna said chuckling as she took the steps upstairs followed by Rose.

"The house is beautiful," Rose commented as she stared around with a comfortable smile.

"I'm glad you like it. This is your room," Anna said opening a door.

"Wow, cool," Rose said as she walked into the room with her luggage alone while Anna went to her own room. The journey was nice and she loved how beautiful Star city still looked.

The city was dominated on one side by old magnificent historical buildings. It was so beautiful and it was very expensive to live in that part of City.

Most of the people that occupied that part of the city were the royal families or multi-billionaires. The old palace was also found in that part of the city.

The other part which was where her school was built in, was filled with tall skyscrapers and other expensive modern buildings.

The building they got to stay in was one of the tallest in Star city as well as in the world and they were lucky to stay in a floor below the penthouse.

When Rose found out, she wanted to tease her sister who kept emphasizing that they will stay in a penthouse but she thought against it. It was only a floor lower and it seemed the owner of the penthouse was very powerful.

From what she heard from Debby, the owner of the penthouse was the owner of the building and there was absolutely no one who could beat the owner in using what he owns.

He also owns a lot of other buildings in Star city and around the world. He was the youngest and richest man in Star city.

Must people were unwilling to accept the fact that Liam could own all he did after just a short period of time and at his young age but after careful investigations, some said he had always invested in a lot of businesses.

He also seemed to own not less than ten percent shares in any big company that was not his own. Construction, weapon making and dealing, real estate, and many other businesses people did not knew about and did not know about were owned by him or he was one of the major shareholders.

Rose sighed and looked out of the window. The view was breathtaking and she could see a lot of places by just standing at the window of her room.

She was happy to be back in Star city but Star city was different. She almost could not recognize the city from the last time she saw the city which was more than ten years ago.

"Mum, I am in Star city. I am here with you," she murmured. Her back looked so sad as she looked out into the evening sky which seemed to be close to her.

"So, what do you think Rose? Is it a penthouse or a little bungalow or duplex?" Anna asked Rose her eyes shining in curiousity when they sat together to look at the night sky.

"Like they always say, the night sky look best in the country. I like the whole idea of living in a penthouse but I love home. Our home in B city is the best. The sky looks prettier," Rose said truthfully but if she could visit her grandfather's home, she knew she will love it better than anywhere else.

"Yeah, the stars in the city are not bright," Debby commented with a nod.

"They look okay to me," Anna said as though she was trying to persuade herself that they did.

"Yeah . . . They do," Debby said without bothering to hide the sarcasm in her voice.

Anna ignored her and turned to Rose. Tomorroww, we are going to go for the fashion show. Mum got us tickets. It will be at night and I would have scheduled that we find a dress in the day time but Rose have taken of it so, we will visit the spa after lunch," Anna said giving her sister a thumb up.

Rose smiled and took a sip from the glass of fresh fruit juice Debby made for them. "We could shop some groceries on Tuesday although it was not included in the schedule," Debby suggested.

"We order for food and if we don't want to, I can bring Joyce over," Anna refuted immediately shaking her head furiously.

"The fact that you don't know how to cook, does not mean we can't and you could use this opportunity to learn," Debby tried to persuade her friend.

"I have no reason to learn," Anna told Debby arrogantly.

"For fun?" Rose asked Anna. The thought of having to cook while they stayed in Star city was nice and she wanted to try it.

"For fun? Fine, but if it they don't taste good, we will just have to order for our meals agreed?"

"Sure but Rose will try cooking first before I do then you are next," Debby said excitedly.

"Just once a day. I have a busy schedule," Anna told her trying to sound as stern as she could.

"Whatever. We will do grocery shopping

on Tuesday," Debby said excitedly. She have never gone to shop groceries before and she wanted to experience it.

"Its just going to be stressful," Anna complained.

"It will be fun. Trust me," Debby replied unwilling to lose such an opportunity.

"Fine," Anna agreed when she noticed her friend's unwavering firmness.

"Wayne will arrive tomorrow morning and we will drag him along. I heard he is going to come with his girlfriend," Debby continued talking.

"Yes. His girlfriend is friendly but she is stealing our friend," Anna murmured.

"Are you still our friend? I thought the mathematics teacher stole you from us," Debby said with enough sarcasm.

"Hey, if you two begin another verbal war, I will go back to my room," Rose threatened when she saw the fierceness that appeared in her sister's eyes.

"Just this once," Anna said shaking a finger at her friend before resting her head on her sister's lap.

Debby smiled victoriously, after all she won the war.

Just as Rose settled herself under the covers, her phone vibrated on the bedside table. She picked it up to see a message from Liam and froze.

They have not spoken since the last couple of days and it made her believe all the bad things her mind had to say about him. Perhaps he stopped calling her because she knew his secret and she could no longer play the role of his puppet Queen.

With shaky hands, she opened the message and took a deep breath before reading it out aloud, "How was your journey?"

The message was really simple but it made her confused. Shouldn't he apologize to her? Shouldn't he start with an apology?

'Was it too stressful?'

'I want you to be careful around the city.'

She could not continue reading the messages he kept sending to her and she blocked him. She wanted an apology or perhaps she did this for her pride.

Maybe she did not want to believe the joy that filled her heart from the message he sent to her. She did not want to believe that she was happy because obviously he still needed her as his puppet Queen that was why he texted her.

With a frown, she pulled the covers to her chin and closed her eyes but it was way after midnight before she could fall asleep.
