The ride back home was quiet since i was exhausted, but i couldn't let it show. I headed up to my bedroom to get ready for the charity event. I bathed and almost fell asleep before the maids awoke me just in time.
They did my hair and makeup and then i picked out my clothes. It was a long ivory fitted dress with flared cut sleeves. It was paired with a pair of black Louboutin heels. I added a few last minute jewellery, gold hoops and a gold necklace to pull it altogether.
I thanked all the maids before opening my bedroom door. Jake stood there, his lips slightly parted when he saw me. I was the one stunned when i saw him, he was dressed in a black suit that had fragments of ivory stitching, contrasting my dress.
"You clean up nice." I said as we headed outside to the car.
"Why thank you, you did pretty well yourself princess." He teased. The nickname still echoing in my head. He opened the car door for me as i went in first.
As we pulled up to the event, i saw a line of black and silver cars lined up, it reminded me of the race track and i longed to be back there.
Well then, shall we head in?" Jake asked, giving his arm. I held onto it and i nodded and we went inside.
"Are you going to be with me the whole time?" I asked only because i didn't have anyone to talk to, i noticed my father, mother and Heeseung talking to one of father's friends.
"I won't be directly next to you but i'll be close by just in case there's anyone suspicious." Jake explained, "i think your father's calling you."
I noticed my father calling me over and went towards him while greeting a few other people i knew by name and not face. Jake had gone to his position.
"Your highness" Father's friend, the king of the Eastern Empire greeted me, "my son here, the prince, would love to make your acquaintance."
I really didn't want to make acquaintances with his son but i faked a smile as i was forced to go on a walk with him. "Your highness." I gave a small curtsy.
"Please, let us enjoy our walk beside our titles." I internally sighed because i knew this was going to drag. I turned around to see if Jake was behind us and maybe i could get out of this unnecessary interaction, but he wasn't there.
i felt slightly disheartened.
We sat down on a table as he decided he didn't want to go for a walk anymore. "Tell me, how do you spend your time." He inquired.
"Well, i enjoy reading and cars." I looked at him as he made a confused expression.
"pardon me, but did you say cars? I understand reading, but cars? Surely a refined lady like you does not enjoy frolicking in silly activities with cars!" He exclaimed putting a hand on his heart.
"Well, yes i do, i see your having quite a hard time to grasp this. Maybe we should go our separate ways now?" I said, eagerly hoping he would agree.
He didn't. He wanted to take a walk outside now.
"Well we must be back in time for the auction." I said so we didn't need to spend much time together outside.
We sat down on a white bench and i looked around again to see if i could spot Jake but he wasn't here.
"Would you like to hear my thoughts about women?"
No i really didn't, but i couldn't give an answer because he began speaking anyways.
"I believe women have a very distinctive role in society." I noticed he moved closer to me, "women should not be into cars or even reading, they should spend their time learning cooking and baking and to please their husband whenever they want to."
I scoffed disgustingly and it didn't go unnoticed by him, "Your one of those misogynistic men aren't you, well i don't stand for that, i'm sorry your highness but i don't think we will get along well as we have VERY differing views." I stood to get up and make my way inside.
"Wait." He called out, "you're right, i want to hear your views, please." He said almost pleading, i felt something off like i shouldn't continue speaking with him but i brushed it off.
"Fine, let's speak inside though, the auction is starting." He nodded his head and we both sat down on our own table, i had wanted to sit with my family, but the auction had already started and we couldn't disturb it.
It was just my luck that we were sitting right at the back. The prince wasn't speaking yet and was occasionally bidding here and there, until something switched and he moved his chair closer to mine.
"Your highness." I couldn't understand what he was doing until i felt his hand on my thigh.
"what are you doing?" I managed to get the words out and tried to move his hand but his grip was too firm.
"I believe women should only be seen and not heard."
