Chapter 19: Sister - I

Having completed her attire, Kim Su Won got up and was ready to go. She had already convinced Anna that she wanted to roam around the mansion for it might aid in her memory. In reality, she had just wanted to see how rich she or rather her family really was.
From her experience, each room in this mansion had its own charm and definitely was made according to the tastes of their respective owners. Her own bedroom had lavender colored walls giving it very calming and relaxing feel. It must have been the work of someone who knew Emmeline Whittemore well. The other rooms had normal cream colored walls. But her bedroom also had the luxurious furniture, bare minimum but still screaming of wealth. No matter how much the duchess wanted to neglect her as a kid, she could not really have the rooms lacking. It was a matter of show off, pride and status in the society after all.
The other rooms that she had visited, including bathroom, living room and the changing room, they were all equipped with the most modern technologies and artistry of this era. The duke's butler, who was a big environmental enthusiast, had put all his effort into getting the structure, processes and activities to minimize waste. It was the state of art technology, even by her own world's standards, something that the novel had not really described.
These were some of few things she had been learning over the past week. It was interesting, there was no place to be bored. Anyway, she was excited to explore the world of the novel, finally.
Anna and Kim Su Won roamed around in the never ending hallway. Kim Su Won was really looking at each and every statue, pillar and door in the hallway. It was super hilarious and she was also freaking out the maids and servants she came across on the way.
"Miss… I think we have looked enough. It is almost time too. Let's not get into bad books of duke and not make him wait, alright?" Anna took out a pocket watch from her dress's pocket and looked at it anxiously. Her brown furrowed brows and eyes urging her to hurry filled Kim Su Won's heart with warmth.
One, this maid worried about her a lot. Two, she would make a wonderful mother. Anna knew when to scold the kids and when to coax them. It was as if one could almost make a post on leadership with her example on LinkedIn.
If it were Kim Su Won's mother from the original world, she would have already heard screaming yelling ten times by now, just because she was going to apparently get late in meeting her own father, even though she would reach there ten minutes early at the slowest speed.
But Anna used the right tone with her and she showed that it was not just her who was going to get late but everyone. In loving and caring words, she told her what would happen if they were to get late, something that was disadvantageous to her. it was not nonsense yelling without any reason. If Anna was to treat her own kids like this in future, Kim Su Won knew in her heart that those kids would turn out great. She was now looking forward to meet her maid's future kids. She was going to make sure that Anna would not end up with a tragic end!

She linked her arm with Anna's and started walking, skipping steps. Anna got a bit flustered, for all the servants and maids were watching her, but she let the young miss do as she wished. Sometimes, the strong ones needed love too.
While Kim Su Won was laughing and chatting away happily with her maid, she encountered the character she was yet to meet. The girl full of pride from head to toe, soft silver hair and blue eyes full of contempt, almost a head taller than her, no doubt this was her sister Cecilia Whittemore! What was she doing here?
"Oh, look who is here? I heard someone wants to meet father to get permission for studying?" Cecilia glared at her younger sister with disdain. She did not say hi, she directly started with a jab.
"Good evening to you too, sister," Kim Su Won slightly bowed to her sister, as was the custom of this place. Juniors always bowed slightly to elders in the same generation. Then there were 45 and 90 degree bows at different occasions. Anyway, Kim Su Won had no intention of getting into a fight with her sister, which irked Cecilia much.
This response was unexpected. Original Emmeline Whittemore would have started a fight right here which was what eighteen years old Cecilia was looking for. This way, she could call her mother and tattle on her sister. Unfortunately, that did not happen.
"Hmph! Why are you going to meet father? Is it true you are suddenly interested in studying? Did falling in the lake mess up with your brain or something?" Cecilia shot a bunch of questions left and right.
Kim Su Won shrugged. "I think it did put my brain in the right place. If I am to be a good crown princess candidate, I need to learn, right? After all, the whole family is relying on me to get that position and support the family, I am sure you are well aware of that, right sister?" Kim Su Won had already searched her memory and knew what shitty treatment this elder sister of hers gave original Emmeline. It hurt her heart that the blood related sisters were out to kill each other. Emmeline was just too young to understand the politics. Or perhaps she understood it too well, which was why she had made a pact with her elder sister to behave like a good-for-nothing. And just remain in her own small world in the east wing.
But Kim Su Won was not back going to back down anymore. She was going to make her sister taste her own medicine.
