Reborn as the Tyrant's Son

Chapter 31

"Cherish Ricarda Daivat..."

Loki tapped his fingers on the table in front of him while his chin was placed on his other palm. He closed his eyes, feeling the wind that softly caressed his skin by every blow.

Cherish Ricarda Daivat is a minor character in Romeo and the Lily. She is known as Hera's only close friend as their friendship started with them being playmates in their early age kaya sobrang strong ng bond nila sa libro. She's on the imperial side as her family supports the Imperial Family and she's friends with them, so she's one of those who protected the Imperial Family in the war when Romeo started his rebellion against the said family, but unfortunately, she was killed by the male lead himself.

Despite the confusion kung bakit kailangang sumali si Hera sa playmate thingy when in fact, si Loki ang hinahanapan nila ng playmate, he's not against it at all. Medyo napaaga ang pagiging playmates nila Hera at Cherish pero ayos lang. In Loki's mind, he's thinking that it's better since their bond will grow stronger than in the novel dahil mas maaga silang magiging close sa isa't isa even though he's in the picture.

"This friendship will benefit my family." He mumbled, nodding his head bago minulat ang mga mata.

He unconsciously looked up in the sky, the wind growing stronger pero hindi naman gano'n kalakas. He looked down on the table where his hand is, sighing softly dahil medyo inaantok na siya kakahintay.

"Your Imperial Highness, Young Lady Cherish Ricarda Daivat has arrived."

He perked up when he heard Iris' wonderful voice.

Mabilis siyang lumingon sa likuran niya and his gaze immediately landed on the girl with Iris.

Mabilis siyang tumayo at umikot para harapin ang dalawang babae but unfortunately, he tripped right in front of them. "Aw."

"Your Highness!" Iris immediately helped him to stand up, worriedly looking at him. "Ayos ka lang ba? May masakit ba?"

"I'm fine, Iris." He scratched the back of his neck, beaming lightly dahil sa hiya.

Cherish, on the other hand, was not impressed. She can't believe that a member of the Imperial Family is too clumsy and can't even do a simple greeting without making any mistake. Did he even take classes for etiquette? It's a customary class for nobles!

She averted her gaze on her side, choosing to admire the scene of the garden instead of watching the nanny taking care of the Youngest Imperial Prince. In her mind, it would've been better to be playmates with the aggressive Second Prince than the prince younger than her. At least the Second Prince is more mature than the prince in front of him.

Goodness! She can't believe she let her mother accept this playmate thingy. She's starting to regret it.

Loki cleared his throat after siyang ayusan ni Iris. "S-sorry for t-that, my lady." Halos hindi na niya masalubong ang tingin ng babae dahil sa sobrang hiya.

He can't believe he let himself be a fool in front of someone he's trying to befriend to help his family!

Cherish hates clumsy man more than anything and yet he became one in front of her!

"It's alright, Your Imperial Highness." Cherish remained calm and collected.

She bowed her head slightly, raising her gown a bit then placing her hand on her chest. "Pardon me for the late introduction. I'm Cherish Ricarda Daivat of the Daivat Family. It's nice to meet you, Your Imperial Highness."

"O-oh!" Loki nervously bowed down too. "Aileth Morana di Lokesio, just call me Loki." He soon stood up straight, beaming brightly, brighter than the sun itself.
