Today Zhan woke up early in the morning and decided to go to the temple.

He felt extremely excited just the thought of going to the temple, he got dressed and stepped out of his room to go to Simon's room.

"Brother wake up" Zhan tried to wake up Simon but he didn't budge, "Let me sleep get lost."

"Come on brother wake up please come with me to the temple."

"Shut up and get lost!" Simon said and covered himself with the blanket, Zhan sighed and didn't disturb Simon anymore.

On his way out, he saw the butler who looked worse and as if he was nearing death, Zhan couldn't explain how good he felt after seeing him like that.

"Mr. Roy are you okay?" He asked while faking worry.

The butler flinched and nodded, but Zhan had to rub salt on his wounds, "Did mother did this?"

He faked anger and said, "I shall go and talk to her how can she?"

The butler grabbed Zhan's legs and begged, "No young master please please don't talk about anything to her please I beg you."

Zhan smiled but of course, the butler didn't see it," alright stand up."

The butler stood up and Zhan looked at him, "I am going to the temple I will bring some medicine for you."

With that, he walked out, happily, "Silas" Zhan called out and ran out and hugged Silas tightly.

Silas also hugged him tightly," How are you, Zhan."

"I am fine," Zhan said, "So where is the broom?"

Silas smiled, "Oh we wait we have another person with us today."

"Who"

No sooner than Zhan said this Yibo entered the place and was quite surprised to see Zhan," So what are you scheming now?"

Zhan and Silas chuckled and Zhan said, "I am just here to offer my prayers to the goddess, your highness."

"Yeah, right I believe you."

"Alright let's clean the place first."

The three of them then proceeded to clean the place before offering their prayers to the goddess.

After they were done, both of them sat with Silas, "How have you been Zhan"

"I have been in eternal; bliss Silas, my master is the greatest in the world."

"Even greater than a goddess?" Yibo asked,

"My master is equal to the goddess."

"Yibo nodded with amusement, "I would like to meet her one day."

"well not everyone can neet her," Zhan said and Yibo nodded, suddenly Silas's face became grim, 

"Your highness where is your nanny ?" 

"Oh I have sent her home for vacation she will be back soon"

Silas nodded and didn't say much but Zhan understood that something was wrong but he didn't say anything, they sat with Silas for some more time before leaving

"So do you have any news, your highness?"

"Apparently the empress had called lady Sapphire and Lady Adeena Vespera"

Zhan nodded, "Lady Vespera is in competition for the saintess." And of course, Zhan will not let her succeed.

"And lady Sapphire is in love with Lord Simon," Yibo said and this made Zhan fill with dread, "Maybe be empress wants Lord Simon to marry lady Sapphire."

"I will be a Villain in this life."Where stories live. Discover now
