             Chap 9: A beauty

Crow Prince Asher pov

"I think your highness forget that everything that you have right now is all because of me. Even your position. I don't think your highness beleive that it's because of your talent right? Up until now you can only become the crown prince because i like you. Because of the Cunninghum Dukedome support. With your appereance that didn't even resemble emperial family even a little did you really think that you can become the crown prince? Did you really think that you're that talented? Open your eyes. With or without you, i'm still the mighty Cunninghum young lady but without me you're nothing. As an arictocriat love is nothing for us but power is. Once I choose the other prince did you really think that you can still enjoying your life like this?" Her words keep linggering in my mind.

She's change. Before she would chase me where ever I go, follow my every word, but now...she's treatening me. She become a different person. The air around her, her demeanour, everything about her... it's feel like she's not a obsessive girl that I use to know.

Even when the days of trial she suddenly flip the table and turn everyone including the judge on her side. And today...she's humanilated me in front of I, myself. The things that no one ever done to me. I hate this. The feeling of defeat. But what if she really does support other prince? I will be doomed. Especialy the third prince. He have been eyeing for the throne for a long time. If he really get her support, my hard work, my position, everything will be his.

No..no..no.. I can't accept this. I need to get Isolabella support once again. I need her to be on my side. I'm sure after a few words of comfort and everything will be alright once again. Yes that's it. (Pst..pst..poor thing༎ຶ‿༎ຶ )

In the Cunninghum Dukedome

"Iso, your father told me that you've discussing about your engagement with the Crown Prince Asher. How does it? Have both of you reach an agreement?" Isolabella mother, Duchess Samena Ito de Cunninghum asking with a face full of a concern.

Then all eyes in a dining room aimed toward her. " Prince Asher say he will repent on his action and think about it once again" she reply calmly while cutting steak in front of her into a small pieces before eat it.

"What about your opinion? What do you think about it?" William suddenly ask impatiently.

"Well.. it's up to him" she shrugged and continue eating.

"Oh, father what about the gun?" Isolabella tilted her head. "Gun?" Her mother ask.

"Yes. It's my new invention" she answer and keep looking towards Duke Griffith, seeking for an answer.

"Well, while you discussing with the crown prince i've told his majesty about it and not long after that Duke Owen come. And after inspecting it Duke Owen think that it was a nice weapon and they want us to make more of it and provide it for the empire. I also have thinking about the brand name that we should use. What about Iso? Since you're the one who come up with the idea it's better to use your name" the duke explain.

"I see. Then what will I gain from it?" Isolabella asking straight yo the point.

"You will get 30% of the profit"

"50%"

"35%"

"60%. It's the last offer. The more you try to bargain, the more you will lose" she said strenly.

Defeated, Duke Griffith can only agree with his daughter condition to not to make thing more difficult.

5 weeks later

It's been 5 weeks since I got transmigrated here. I thought that I have forget about my past already but every night my memories from past life keep hunting me in my dream. Although my parent and workers treating me better than before, my relationship with William is still awkward. Anyways I don't think that I will try to capture his heart and becoming a good sister towards a person who had try to kill me before. Beside if he really want to kill me, it's not like i'm not gonna fight. In first life one thing that I learn is to destroy anything or anyone that's on my way. In the end, I never hesistate become cruel towards anyone.

In this 5 week the crown prince keep on sending a gift and visit the dukedome. It's really annoyed me that sometimes i'll just rejected him in front of many people but there's also a time that he can actually understand human langguage so i'll just let it slide. Lately I also got a lot of money from the gun production. Not only that people around the empire but other kingdom and empire ordering a lot of it. I also treat mother disease(cancer) with modern method which is surgery. At the first they opposing my idea but after I keep glaring and cursing everyone they finally give in. In the end everything goes well and once again rumor spread about my method. And now more people keep on 'visiting' me. I also get a lot of invitation for tea party.

Currently, i'm still get ready for banquet that will be held tonight.

"My lady which acsesories that you prefer"

"My lady what about this gown? It's match well with your snow white skin colour"

"My lady what about this?"

My lady..my lady don't they know how to stop?

Pov: at the banquet

After giving her greeting toward royal family Isolabella made her way towards a group of girl.

To keep your image, you need to gain a few followers. First i'll deal with this ladies. I mean person who like gossip would be really important in your side. She laugh histerically inside her head. Suddenly while she leasurely talking a loud sound could be heard. And when she turn around..."oh that white-lottus again" she mumble.

"You slap me? For this bitch?" the lady with crimson red gown ask in disbeleive.

"It's enough Cecelia" the black hair man that slap her say while consolling the crying Mary. After hearing that word the girl that they call Cecelia run from there towards the main door.

Did she really need to go everywhere and make all girl bad. Guess what I can't let a beautiful lady being humanilate. If i'm not wrong, that bastard over there is Derrick Seymour. Let's make a drama...Once again Isolabella laugh histerically inside her head.

Let find the beauty first...Omg is she's crazy! Once again the girl being slap.
