296- Mom! Dad!

When Valerie landed at Kanderton airport, she took a cab to the palace. She was expecting the same arguments with the guards but thankfully this time she was ushered to Nina's not-so-big study room without any hassle.

This room was of course smaller than the main study where will-reading was carried out but seemed enough for Nina.

"Ma'am," the maid placed the bottle of sparkling water on the table along with a glass and Valerie felt jealous.

Marissa was now living her dream.

"Where is Marissa?" she asked the woman with a smile.

"In the office," she replied and left the room.

Marissa was in the office? To do what? 

She relaxed back in the chair while waiting for Nina.

"So, you're back, Valerie!" Valerie stayed in the same position when Nina approached her, "I told you not to try to meet me again."

"I know, Nina. But… you're the only one who can solve my problems. You need to do something, Nina."
