chapter 3 : Investigate about him

' Urmm..brother Cass.'

Cassius turns to face Crystelle.

"What exactly is it, Elly?"Cassius smiles gently toward Crystelle.

"Oh my goodness! Why is he so handsome? If he's not my brother, I'll fall helplessly in love with Cassius, who has beautiful dark blue hair like our father and rubies-colored pupils like mine, as well as a great figure and a charming smile that will make all the women melt at his sight; there's no doubt he'll become the most handsome guy in the future.

"Ahh, I want to marry Cassius instead, can I?.'

' Elly? "Are you okay?" asks Cassius when Crystelle doesn't reply when he calls her name; he doesn't know that Crystelle was daydreaming about their wedding.

"There's nothing!" Smiles her.

"Brother... did you happen to hear about the first prince while you were at the palace?" Crystelle inquires; she must investigate everything today before tomorrow's meeting with the emperor.

"Hmm, why the first prince?" Cassius shut his book and looked at Crystelle's face.

"Eh, just curious," Crystelle says with a cute smile, shrugging her shoulders.

"Haha, my cute little sister is interested in him? "hmm.. I didn't know much about him, but he was mentioned in a story. Elly, want to hear it? Although I don't know if it is true or not..hmm' said Cassius, while posing like a person with so much thought. Crystelle laughed at her brother's action, and then she nodded. "I'm curious!"

' In the Ophelia Empire, there are three princes and one princess. The second prince was the only son of the current empress Seraphina Atlas, and because of that, he got the title ' Crown Prince' of the Ophelia Empire. Although the first prince was the late empress Stella Riley's son, he was abandoned after the late empress Stella Riley left and the title of empress was given to Queen Seraphina Atlas, but this occurred before Queen Seraphina Atlas became the current empress.

Now, the title of queen goes to the current queen, Evelyn Ember, and she gave birth to the third princess and the fourth prince. They said the first prince was not suitable to become the crown prince because he has a power like a monster, resembles the late empress Stella, and will bring misfortune to the Ophelia Empire; thus, the title goes to the second prince, and the first prince got shut in his palace because of it. It happened when he was only three years old; he must have had a difficult childhood. "

Cassius smiles at Crystelle.

' Don't mind too much, everyone had a hard time, Maybe I will stop here for today; I am sure there will be a happy ending for his future, okay? ' Cassius said as he looked at Crystelle's teary eyes.

' Hmm. Although I hear this story over and over again, it still makes me wonder why nobody would try to lend a hand to the first prince? "I heard that the current empress and queen were good people," thought Cassius while patting Crystelle's head.

Crystelle clenches her fist ' I will help the first prince, I've made my decision! I will go with plan one! ' Crystelle stood up from her seat, thinking.

' Brother Cass, thank you! I will start with my plan now! " Crystelle said as she kissed her brother on the cheek.

"Anything for my little angel," Cassius says as he watches Crystelle slowly walk out of his room.

"If Elly had a problem, you should just come to me! I will help Elly at all costs! "

Crystelle stopped and looked at Cassius's gentle smile and face.

' Seriously?! Can't I just marry him? Why did you have to be born as my brother?! God is so unfair! Crystelle thought again as she slowly exited Cassius' room.

I hope he finds someone suitable for him!'

At the time, Cassius was lost in his thoughts.

' Plan? Did Elly say something like she had a plan earlier? 'Perhaps I misheard it...' Cassius mumbled before returning to his book.
