Corrie had never felt this uncomfortable since she came here. It was a restless night, some of the other servers were very friendly.
Do you know why she got in so easily?
Because Milana told her friend(Housekeeper) that she could speak that language.
The friend was surprised to know that also after seeing that she was experienced in everything.
Milana had trained her well. It was not that difficult.
The next day---
Axel was displeased. He was scolding everyone, Corrie was there too.
He dismissed everyone except Corrie
He held out his left hand and said,"Dress this wound."
I guess he was hurt by the fruit knife like a little child. It was covered with his robes so only when he lifted his robes, it was visible.
Corrie faced palmed herself at his behaviour.
He pointed to the medicine box at the top of his shelf. She started dressing his wounds.
She spoke(that language),"Your Highness could've asked the more experienced servers to do this for you.Why me?"
Oh My..she actually had the audacity to ask that. In her view, he was an incompetent and ruthless ruler and so he died easily in the battle so she spoke to him with honorifics but the words that continued from that was her own mind. She was a person who was not scared to give her point of view, it was the truth. She was not afraid to offend this type of guy.
Axel was more than surprised," I wanted to see how good you are".
"You wanted to see if i was a spy", Corrie answered back which made Axel's eyes widen. Yes of course since she could speak that language he thought she was a spy.
Well then since that was the case, he lifted her chin and looked deep into her eyes as if he was searching her soul for any flaws. Corrie had been sitting near his feet as a server is supposed to always at all times.
She was shocked by his actions but she too looked at him. They were very pure and held no intentions.
He let her go,"You aren't a spy".
And dismissed her for the day.
A weird Prince who got hurt while having fruits..childish.
She did not regret her actions and words when she went out.
Axel looked at his bandaged hand and covered it again with his robes.
Little did she know that because of her straighforward response, she would capture the Crown Prince's heart.
