✍️ CHAPTER TITLE ✍️: YOU ARE A WOMAN!
Regaining some strength and consciousness herself before her eyes weakly opened, she glanced briefly around her surroundings and while she was doing that, a sharp discomfort came across her forehead and she winced in pain.
With her back positioned on the house, she thought about her situation before what happened, happen.
She could remember vividly well that she was speaking with Annabel a while ago before the darkness came suddenly.
A sharp pain on her head, followed by darkness calling out to her, she tried never to answer but could she? All the strength she tried using to battle the darkness left her all alone defeated.
Roaming those weak eyes around while struggling with the headache, that was aching her head.
No need for a soothsayer to explain, her condition was because she couldn’t get a night of sleep properly last night.
Never in her life has she skipped a sleep unwillingly. Damien didn’t let her get enough rest even after all the work, she did during the day and had exhausted all her energy.
When she was with her parents and was still dwelling on her title, also in her moment of being a princess and a daughter to the royal family, no sort of thing ever happened.
When she planned everything for herself and left the palace because of Damien, she forgot to think about how difficult it could be to stay in a new place, especially a place where no one knows your true identity.

Vera was still on the ground trying to regain her strength fully when a question summoned up in her mind, where’s Annabel?
If she slumped up to the ground in her presence, and now she isn’t here, where could she have been?
‘Oh no! Has she gone back inside? What if?’ Vera’s mind raced fastly as she thought of those possible problems on her mind.
Damien isn’t at home, but if anyone comes here to help her, they might find out something about her.
Oh goodness! What will she do now? She doesn’t possess enough strength to get herself out of here.
No matter what, something must be done.
Something was done because she stoop up to the ground immediately with all the strength that she has.
Even the headache that kept on banging her head couldn’t stop her from standing up on her feet. Trouble alooms if she doesn’t do something quickly.
Vera tried balancing her body but couldn’t find some strength to stand on her own.
Her hand stretched up to the wall and when it gripped the wall, she started taking her steps slowly toward the mansion.
If Annabel and someone are on their way here to get her, the plan that she planned within herself was to walk for a while, and even though she would still need their help later, she should at least make some effort to protect her identity.
If they came when she was unconscious, they would have carried her or done something else, what she knows was that, no matter what, something will bring her identity into view if that happens.
She didn’t come all this way to get exposed when her aim hasn’t been fulfilled.
Damien hasn’t even started developing feelings for her yet, and she was still thinking about making that happen, if he finds out that she’s the same princess that he yelled at the other day, he would send her away and everything, everything would be lost.

Anxiously and in a racing mind, Annabel ran into the mansion. Why did Damien keep the bird’s habitat behind the mansion? It was not easy approaching the mansion as it was too far, and she couldn’t run properly either, her body hasn’t been recovered fully.
The place where she was shot years ago by her side of the body was aching and drawing her strength together painfully.
As she walked hastily, she couldn’t stop thinking about Vera whom she left all alone out there.
‘What happened to her suddenly? Will she be okay?’ internally her mind wandered on but no answer was given.

“Disguise!” Annabel called suddenly when she sighted her battling with her steps.
Caleb whom Annabel dragged down here hastily and was slightly worried strolled closer to the both of them.
Annabel getting to where Vera was standing closer to the wall bit her trembling lips in a difficult situation.
“Are you alright, Disguise?” She asked in concern while putting her palm on her shoulder.
Vera tried smiling briefly, but then she nodded her head in reply.
She wanted to speak but knowing it could cause problems for her, she chooses to remain quiet as her eyes observed everything.
She’s in a difficult situation presently and couldn’t battle with disguising anything presently.
If she was to speak, her voice will come out originally and create havoc. What man will have a woman’s voice? She would have to explain that and she doesn’t want to ever explain it.
“How did you get up? I went in search of Caleb when I couldn’t help you to the mansion by myself, you were heavy and it was difficult carrying you, I’m sorry,” Annabel gibbered in excess.
Vera smiled faintly as Annabel’s care towards her made her remember Andromeda.
Annabel is such a sweet and innocent soul. She can’t believe that she got this little one worried.
“What’s wrong with you?” Caleb expressionless asked Vera when he got to where they were both communicating.
Vera tried building up some strength and ability to disguise her voice but more as if Annabel understood her struggles, she immediately said,
“She has gotten a headache. Her body temperature is higher than usual too,” she replied Caleb fastly then turned her attention back to Vera.
“Must have been fever. You should have spoken up earlier if you weren’t feeling better.” Caleb scolded angrily.
Busy with all the company work that Damien chooses to abandon.
The reason why he canceled all of his work at the company today was to check out the emails and see the level of things that haven’t been considered checking up but Damien, even though they have great benefits to him.
Damien has gone in search of Brown, he dressed up early in the morning and the only thing he cared about was to search for Crystal and Brown again.
Caleb is around, no need to worry about Annabel’s safety, although even with that, he still instructed Scott not to allow Annabel to step out of the mansion.
The situation they are in presently wouldn’t have been like this if Caleb stopped Annabel from coming to see her bird.
“He was fine, the sickness came when we weren’t expecting it. He’s too tired, and I’m scared Disguise has fallen sick,” Annabel exaggerated.
Caleb rolled his eyes as he wasn’t in the mood for her gibberish words.
“He should go get some rest inside then, he looks fine already to me,” Caleb waved off easily.
His two hands were in his trouser pocket his eyes looking forward at nothing. All this doesn’t interest him.
After hearing that, Vera made some steps to continue going into the mansion by herself.
She felt relieved that she was able to protect her identity. It seems to her that when she fell unconscious, she didn’t create any suspicious thoughts in Annabel’s mind.
On the other hand, Annabel watched as Vera battled with her steps even though she didn’t say it out, she could see how she struggled with her steps and she doesn’t like it a little bit.
She didn’t call Caleb here to come and watch. She called him for help, but he doesn’t seem like who would help anyways.
‘that man who calls himself a friend, could he not have stepped forward to help Vera?’ Annabel thought of annoyingly in her mind as she stared at them both.
“He can’t work properly on his own, I will help him,” Annabel announced and then was about to put Vera’s hand across her shoulder.
Vera’s heart skipped a beat. Nothing can be done now, Annabel would find out something if her chest should manage to press against hers. Oh hell! Can she even life Vera up? What is she thinking?
“There’s no need for you to do that. He will help her,” Caleb stopped her, and then, Smart stepped forward to Vera’s presence.
She never wanted to leave, but unwillingly, she stepped aside to create space for Smart but she never left Vera’s side.
Although before, she wouldn’t have been able to help Vera. Where’s the strength to carry her?
Caleb hissed lazily at the stubborn sister of his while he watched her standing closer to the Butler.
“Help him to the room, I will ask Scott to check up on him and get drugs if needed,” Caleb instructed.
“Annabel, let’s go,” he said after he was done speaking.
“No! I want to come with Disguise,” she refused.
Caleb didn’t bother speaking to change her mind, he just looked around briefly and then he walked back to the mansion.
“Please be careful with him,” Annabel told to Smart who picked Vera off the ground even after her disagreement.

As they approached the stairs, Smart’s instinct changed slightly and his eyes looked down to confirm what he was seeing.
He was carrying Vera in his hands, and maybe due to the position, his arms already dragged Vera’s shirt backward, making the piece of cloth on her chest tight.
He only wanted to check her face and probably make fun of her position.
He did make fun of her, when he saw Vera trying to look down at the ground and not his face or anything else, he almost laughed at her childish acts.
Annabel was coming behind them. Caleb returned to his room, after asking Scott to check on Vera later.
Something strange caught his eyes and it changed his instinct with Vera in his arms.
Aside from the lit weight of hers, which he was already thinking of how to taunt her with it.
Smart doesn’t know how to describe what he saw when his eyes caught the sight of something like small balls pointing up on her chest.
He stared at them surprisingly as he climbed the stairs with her.
What was that? They kept moving and shaking as he takes everyone of his steps.

When they got into Vera’s room it was time to drop her on the bed, Smart out of curiosity and stubborn acts, since he wants to find out everything pressed Vera’s body against his chest while about to lay her on the bed.
Annabel already excused herself while they were coming, and that made the two of them the only ones present in the room.
It was a terrible situation for Vera and no doubt that what she was trying to hide had surfaced.
She felt how her shirt became tight, and although she knows that the people may not notice as it wasn’t very obvious, but the way Smart has been staring at her chest, he would have seen it all.
When Smart pressed her chest against his own, his doubts and confusion were cleared and as good as they shouldn’t have been cleared, they were still cleared, and in return, it brought a shocking expression to his face.
His chest just pressed against something soft.
That was a breast! ‘Disguise has breast!’ he inwardly thought while dropping her on the bed.
Vera crawled her body together after she was dropped on the bed, and instantly dragged the blanket up to cover herself, especially her chest but it was too late, Smart already knew the truth.
He looked closely at her, and with the kind of gaze he gave, Vera knew that everything has fallen apart.
“Disguise!” He called and was about to continue speaking when the door opened behind them and Annabel walked into the room.
“Thank you,” she told to Smart, who managed to bow his head as his eyes never left Vera who was also staring back at him until Annabel got to her side.
“Do you feel better Disguise? I got you this and Caleb already told Scott to get you drugs,” Annabel announced lovingly as she kept the tray that contains juice and water beside Vera, on the bed.
“Thank you, Annabel,” Vera’s voice shook as she answered.
Smart who in the past never took his time to examine what she speaks stretched his ear forward to listen properly and coincidentally, maybe because he already felt the truth about her and Vera couldn’t act like she used to, he recognized her voice to resemble that of a woman.
“You are welcome, I’m glad you are better, I was scared seeing you slumping on the ground. Even my bird was scared and couldn’t eat her grains,” She discussed with a broad smile on her face and then laughed.
“I will go get some rest too. My side aches. I will come to check up on you later,” she announced to Vera in a sweet manner.
“Please look after him. He’s your friend and he needs the company of someone now,” she instructed Smart who bowed his head respectfully before Annabel left.
“Disguise!” He called out to her after the door closed behind Annabel who already walked out.
“Was that the truth of you? You are not a man!?”
To Be Continued…
Smart found out the truth🥺 it’s all Damien’s fault😫
