Location- Southern Region, Southern Capital, Southern Royal Palace, Royal Guest Palace No.1
After the boy vanished into his space card lab, Ann and Jill were left alone in the room. Without the boy acting as a buffer Ann and Jill had nothing to discuss and the atmosphere in the room quickly turned awkward.
"Just so you know I will never betray or let any harm befall Wyatt," Jill explained to Ann.
Listening to the boy say that they, Jill and Ann, were equally trusted by him Jill felt it would be best if she tried to get along with the boy\'s other confidants. Especially with Ann and Anna because the boy was more dependent on the Southern Royal family and it would factor into her getting closer to the boy.
This was why Jill felt the need to make it clear to Ann that she would never betray or let any harm befall the boy. Unfortunately, Jill did not know about the relationship between the boy and Anna, and how far their relationship had progressed physically and emotionally. Had she known, maybe she would have rethought her approach.
"At the risk of repeating myself, time will tell," Ann repeated herself, not bothering to consider where Jill was coming from or if she was being genuine. Ann strongly felt that all of Jill\'s actions so far may stem from concern for the boy but the real question was when it matters will she prioritize the boy over the central government?
Recently this question has been bothering Ann a lot. As an ideal daughter, Ann could never see herself betraying her mother and family but since the boy entered her Ann was contemplating if she could prioritize him over her mother.
For Ann, the answer was obvious, a big old no, as she could never put somebody else\'s interest before her mother\'s interest. However, now she wanted to make the boy her priority yet her condition did not allow her to do so. This pained her realizing that she was never actually free.
And these feelings of pain Anna projected onto Jill. Who supposedly claimed to be in a similar dilemma as her. However, Jill was easily able to turn her back on the central government and run to embrace the boy. This was one of the reasons why Ann was pissed at Jill.
"You know what, believe what you want to, I have nothing to prove to you. I went against my father\'s will to warn Wyatt about the trap laid by the collaboration of Morningstar University and the central government. I do not regret what I did and if I had the opportunity to do it again I will do it without even a second of hesitation," Jill said before jumping onto the only bed in the room.
Seeing Jill jump on the boy\'s bed late at night, Ann frowned. Even though the boy wasn\'t using the bed at present still the bed was allotted for the boy\'s use and seeing Jill get comfortable on it irked Ann. So she asked Jill with a stern expression and smoke coming out of her ears, "What are you doing?"
"I plan to spend my night here, as it will be a pain in the ass to go to my hotel room and return tomorrow morning," Jill explained to Ann as she smelled the sheets on the bed. The sheets were fresh, meaning they had been recently changed which was why they did not have the boy\'s scent.
"Why will you be returning to the palace grounds tomorrow morning? Your work here is done, go home," Ann asked Jill in surprise.
"As the faculty of Morningstar University, I plan to attend the boy\'s early admission Interview for my university with him. I guess my recommendation will give him an easier time getting selected," Jill explained to Ann how she plans to tag along with the boy to his early admission interview for Morningstar University.
"No, you can\'t do that," Ann immediately rejected Jill\'s idea to follow the boy to the interview venue.
"Why not? I can do anything I want. If I want to accompany the boy to his interview then I will. Who are you to say no to me and stop me from doing as I please?" Jill made it clear that Ann\'s opinion did not matter to her on this.
"Me and my family are in charge of the boy\'s security so I do get to decide who tags along with the boy and who doesn\'t. And considering your ties with both Morningstar University and the central government, I have enough reasons to stop you from doing so. Now get off the bed and head back to your hotel room," Ann briefly explained that the boy had made her and her family in charge of his security while he attends the early admission interview for the Morningstar University. So, she had every right to decide who got to accompany the boy on his commute to the interview.
"Whatever, we may be within the premises of the Southern palace grounds but this bed and room are designated to Wyatt, unless he asks me to leave I will not get off this bed," Jill was surprised by Ann\'s counter. However, that was not enough to scare her off.
"Y-you, fine do as you please, for now," Ann stamped her feet on the floor in frustration and sat on the couch, there were many ways for Ann to throw Jill out of the Southern capital let alone the royal palace grounds.
Ann did not resort to any of those actions because she still clearly remembers that the boy claimed that he trusted them equally. Showing how much importance he attached to Jill.
Ann was also aware that though the boy was in his space card lab he could still monitor what was happening outside so she did not want to cause a commotion and end up revealing her ugly side to him. This was why Ann decided to tolerate Jill even though she wanted to be the one to occupy the boy\'s bed.
