“Understood?” Theodore asked to Angela after he finished explaining.
She nodded with a cheeky smile.
“Wow was easy thanks Theo” She said.
She continued reading in silence while Theodore stared at her. His gaze stayed on her lips as she occasionally took them in or licked it. He didn’t know when he leaned in…
“Theo, how about this one…” She said and looked up to him. Their face were so close and their lips inches away.
“Theodore?” She called which brought him out of his thought.
“Sorry, you were saying?” He said.
“I was asking what are the different methods used in reducing inflation in a country?” She asked.
“Oh that’s simple you see…”
He began explaining to her and he intentionally placed his hand on her hand. Angela noticed it and stylishly took removed her hand.
He wasn’t Happy about that but he kept a passive look.
“Do you understand?” He asked…
“Yeah thanks”
Nina who was standing at the door walked away feeling….jealous.
“Alright I need to go for my tutorial” Angela said and smiled before walking away.
Theodore stared at her walking away and smiled.
“How can I fall in love with my brother’s wife?” He thought
Right now his thought were all messed up.

Nina walked to the garden and sat down there not feeling too good…
“He,,,he’s having feelings for Angela” She said sadly.
Well ever since last time when she bumped into her, he was always in his mind. She didn’t know how but she fell in love with him…
*What were you expecting? That he falls in love with you? You’re just a commoner with no class at all* Her conscience said to her.
“But what’s the difference between I and Angela. Aren’t I beautiful just like her? Besides she’s married to his brother” She said to no one.
She sighed and sat on the grass beside a small lake as she brooded alone…

** Four hours later **
“Wow bravo Miss Angela, you understand really faster” Her tutor said.
“Thanks sir” She replied with a smile.
“I’ll stop there and continue tomorrow, have a nice day my future Queen” He said and bowed.
Angela chuckled and nodded… He walked out.
“Finally today’s classes are over, what can I do” She thought.
She glanced at the clock and it was still noon.
She sighed loudly. She doesn’t know what but she misses Jackson.
“What can I do now, my dance classes start by 6pm. I still have five hours free” She said to herself.
She stood up and walked to Nina’s room but she wasn’t there.
*Where could she be?* She thought…
She searched for her in the kitchen, dining room, guestroom but she wasn’t found. She decided to now go to the garden.
She walked in the garden and saw her sitting beside the lake with moody expression.
“Nina?” She called
Nina looked at Angela and smiled vaguely…
She walked up to her and sat down beside her…
“What’s wrongs Nina?” She asked.
“Nothing Ela” She replied.
“Nina, we promise not to hide things from each other. Please tell me everything”
Nina looked back at her breathed out loudly.
“It’s about Theodore” She said.
“Theodore? What’s up with him” Angela asked.
“Well I think I fell for him” Nina said sadly.
“What!! That’s good then,,,you should be happy” Angela said smiling.
“The problem now is that I think he loves you” Nina said.
“What? Me? What are you talking about?” Angela asked surprised.
“Isn’t it obvious? From the way he looks at you to the way he smiles at you to the way he always stares at you and also he tried to initiate a body contact without you today” She said.
Angela thought about it and it’s true what she’s saying.
“You are right about this. He is in love with me” Angela said.
She touched Nina’s shoulder and she turned to her…
“Don’t worry about that, you know very well I don’t feel anything for him. I only see him as a brother. Relax okay?” Angela said.
Nina finally smiled and found herself relaxing. Maybe that’s the word she needed to hear.
“Are we cool now” Angela said with a smile.
“We’re coolest” She said and hugged her as they laughed.
“Come on let’s go have fun!!” Angela said.
They stood up and walked out of the castle. They entered a car and drove off with some body guards tailing behind them in another car.
They got to the club and danced out their worry, luckily for her nobody knows who she is. Not until next month when a royal wedding will be held. For now she’s enjoying her life of a carefree woman…
They danced till their feets where aching.
After the club they now bought some ice cream before heading home.
As they arrived home, it was 6pm sharp. Angela glanced at the where the cars where parked and sighed.
*I seriously miss that strong headed kid*
As she made to enter the house someone hugged her. From the looks of it, it was a woman.
“Aaahhh!! I can’t believe I’ve finally met my brother’s wife” She squealed as she hugged her tightly almost choking her”
Nina stood aside and watched them with a confused expression. Who is this woman?
She released Angela and began checking her out.
“Wow so beautiful, I envy your blonde hair”
“Thanks” Angela said awkwardly.
“Dayanna, could you please allow Angela to breath?” Stella said coming downstairs.
“Dayanna?” Nina and Stella chorused.
“Yeah it’s me. Sorry for not presenting myself to you I’m Dayanna, Jackson and Theodore little sister. As soon as I heard he was married, I took the first flight to Denmark but unfortunately I had a delay” She explained.
“Nice meeting you Dayanna” Angela replied with a smile.
“Oh my, you have such a cute smile. Jackie must really be lucky”
*Jackie?* Angela thought and almost laughed.
“Mum where’s uncle Jackie wife?” A voice spoke.
