Chapter 23

~ Earlier ~

In a mini-mansion located on the outskirts of Country A.

A young girl lay sprawled on a queen-sized bed in a princess-styled room.

She was hugging a Barbie doll closed to her chest as she lay there quietly in deep thoughts.

A knock was soon heard on her room door followed by a soft voice, " Hello! Are you there, Stacy? "

The girl who was none other than Stacy Wales just laid there in silence as if she didn't hear anything.

Later, the already worried Nanny opened the door and walked into the room.

She was surprised to find, Stacy lying emotionlessly on the bed.

" Stacy darling. Are you alright? " She asked softly as she advanced towards her.

" I am, Nanny. " Stacy finally replied without moving.

" I don't think you are, Stacy. Ever since you arrived from school today, you have been quiet. Is anything the manner, Stacy? "

Stacy didn't reply.

" You can talk to me, you know? " She said softly.
