He had found the person danced with

Emperor Carl knew Ella (Rosabella) was telling the truth as he nodded and had the shoe he had picked up at Ella (Rosabella)'s house as he stood. Ella (Rosabella) looked at him as she was confused and watched him as he knelt beside her left.

Emperor Carl pulled the chair away from the table as he pulled the shoe that he picked up when he was at Ella (Rosabella)'s house before his late wife/queen was poisoned by her stepmother for her daughters (Ella (Rosabella)'s stepsisters) sake and Ella (Rosabella) immediately recognized the shoe.

Ella (Rosabella) did not say anything and let Emperor Carl do what he wanted. Ella (Rosabella) gave Emperor Carl her left foot after she pulled her left foot out of the shoe she was wearing, and Emperor Carl placed the shoe onto her left foot.

It was a faultless fit, and Emperor Carl knew he had found the person he had danced with at the house where his late wife/Queen had been poisoned by her hostess for her daughters' sake. Ella (Rosabella) brought out her shoe and gently placed it on her right foot.

Emperor Carl looked at Ella (Rosabella) as he offered his right hand, and she took it. They stood and strode into the ballroom. Ella (Rosabella) knew that Emperor Carl did not dance with her stepsisters as they faced each other, and he danced with her. Ella (Rosabella) knew Emperor Carl would not let her go and looked away. 

Emperor Carl stopped dancing as he placed his right hand on Ella (Rosabella)'s face, and she gazed at him. Ella (Rosabella) felt her heart miss a beat, and Emperor Carl placed his right hand on the back of her head as he said to her. "I am not letting you go because there is something that I want to do, as I did not do it with your stepsisters."

Ella (Rosabella) places her hands on his chest as he touches her face with his left hand, and he gently strokes Ella (Rosabella)'s lips with his thumb. Ella (Rosabella) gently closed her eyes as Emperor Carl placed his left arm around her body, and he kissed her. Emperor Carl held Ella (Rosabella) tightly close, and Ella (Rosabella) gently pulled away as Emperor Carl asked.

"Is your name Rosabella that your father gave you or what?" Ella (Rosabella) shuffled away from her and confessed. "My father did not give me the name of Rosabella because he gave me the name Ella. I only discovered that my real name was Rosabella when I was six years old, and my father is not my real father."

Ella or Rosabella turned around, and Emperor Carl walked over to her as he believed. "But I was told that Luke is your father and your mother is your mother." Unfortunately, Rosabella shook her head and pointed out.

"My mother was told that she could not have any children of her own, and when I was a baby, I was taken away from my real family to Luke and his first wife. When I arrived at the house I had been staying at for twenty-six years, my first mother was overjoyed to have me as her daughter and raised me as her own. I know there must be a reason I was taken away from my real family to Luke."

"But ever since my stepmother and stepsisters arrived at the house. I never had a chance to spend time with my father and have a father-daughter relationship. Last year, after I celebrated my birthday and Christmas. My father came to my bedroom and told me. 'if you want to find out who your real family is, you can do it because you truly have earned it.'"

"I didn't know where to start, and I didn't ask anyone else if they knew who I am." Emperor Carl knew that Rosabella was telling the truth and remembered the scroll of the eight Royal family trees of the eight neighbouring kingdoms. Emperor Carl knew that he had not asked her if she had explored the whole of her bedchamber and asked.

"Rosabella, have you explored your bedchamber or just some of it?" Rosabella realizes that he has a fair point and replies. "I haven't explored the whole bedchamber because I only explored some of it but not the whole room." Emperor Carl knew that he could show her the wardrobe and could not wait to see the reaction on her face.

Rosabella knew something was on her chest and looked at Emperor Carl as she spoke. "But why are the female servants calling me 'Rosabella' when everyone at my father's house was told to call me 'Ella'?" Emperor Carl knew she was telling the truth and revealed it to her.

"I told the female servants assigned to you and the rest of the servants to call you Rosabella because I love the name Rosabella, and it has a ring. But Ella and Cinderella. From my point of view, it isn't fascinating, and it does not suit you. There must be a way to discover your real family and who you are? What did your stepmother and stepsisters say to you?"

Rosabella took a deep breath in and slowly announced. "My stepmother and stepsisters insisted to or jeered at my face that I am not a princess and I was not born as royalty. Unfortunately, my father hides the Christmas or birthday presents that I get from my real family."

"Away from my stepfamily and after they had gone to bed. My father comes into my bedroom and gives me the presents. He stays with me when I open them and scans through the presents. I also get letters spasmodically at Christmas and occasionally at my birthdays."

"My father reads the letters to me and does his best to describe what the letters are trying to say. I do not understand what the letters are trying to say, but my real family is thinking of me. I want to know who I am and my real family."
