MISSION by Astrid R (books to read in your 20s TXT) 📖

I raised my eyebrow, “I mean, I am the ex-princess in United Kingdom and also am the daughter of King Edward. So that means, I also have a throne. You know I am too old to run a part of the palace right, I’m pretty sure Queen Elizabeth wanted someone in my family to rule the United Kingdom.”

I looked at mum without blinking. I felt my world was spinning and I almost forgot how powerful, rich and famous our family was. Well, you see, my father is the son of The Duke of York in England. But because my father is the only son, he automatically became The Duke of York when his father died because of cancer. My mother is also part of the royalty in England. Well, yea because she is also the daughter of King Edward but my mum came from the different family. You know, when King Edward was on the age of early 20’s he loves party and then he met a beautiful woman in the club and that night the incident happen, that’s how my mum came from. So my mum is the daughter of another woman but the daughter of King Edward. Then, the palace knew about King Edward having a baby from outside the palace and they don’t want to ruin their royalty reputation, so they let my mum to live in the palace. That’s how mum and dad met in the first place. They went on a date almost every night and accidentally did the sinful thing. Then, my brother Marcus was born. The whole people in the world find out the new born baby in the Buckingham Palace and they were very happy. But some people were not happy at all. Instead they tried to kidnap the baby in exchange for money but they failed miserably. But this incident never happened just once and not even twice but a countless times. Then dad and mum decided to move out from England with their new born baby and start their new life as far away from England. They called heaps of agencies to spread the ‘fake’ news that The Duke of York and the daughter of King Edward died in a car accident with their son and they also announce who will be the one to finish their responsibility – mum and dad planned it as well.

I huffed in my seat and look at my food, “can we not talk about the ‘royalties’ mum?” I quoted the ‘royalties’ with my fingers and mum nodded. She knows how I hate talking about the rules and regulations and blah, blah, blah…

I looked around and saw that the staff started to prepare their instruments in the small stage inside the restaurant. I looked at my brother and saw KC isn’t with us.

“Where’s KC?” I asked started panicking.

Daisy put his hand on my shoulder to calm me down. “Relax, she was just in the toilet and she said she wanted to drink water.”

I looked at the counter but no KC in there. “But I could just call the waitress to bring water in our table.”

Marcus shook his head like I was a fly. “You know your daughter, if she wanted something; she wants to get it on her own, just like you.”

I looked at Marcus and a smile showed on my lips. He really knows the similarities of KC and I. I relax in my seat and when I about to grab my fork, a sound of a glass that shattered on the floor echo in the restaurant. I quickly look behind me.

I saw a young lady wearing a red mini dress that hugged every curves of her body and barely covered her bum with matching red 6 inches heels. Her blonde hair was perfectly straight from her skull to the tips of her hair. Her skin was tanner than me. She looked like a model but my admiration of her beauty stop when I saw her red nails pointed to the small little girl in front of her.

Only one thing that came from my mind…to protect KC. My KC.

I quickly stood up from my chair and walked to the crowded restaurant. “Ahhh…what have you done. You ruin my dress. Do you know how much this dress cost? $600 dollars and you ruin it.” I heard the blond girl say.

KC was on the verge of crying but I quickly pick her up. “What’s wrong baby? Shhh… It’s okay. It’s going to be alright.” I said soothing words to KC to calm her down. I’m pretty sure any minute she’ll cry.

“Mummy loves…” I was rudely interrupted when I heard an annoying high pitch voice behind me.

“Excuse me, but that little piece of shit poured water on my dress and now it ruin because of her.” The blonde girl said and I turned around to look at her.

My blood was boiling like a volcano ready to explode. How dare her call my daughter a piece of shit? Well, I show her what little piece of shit is.

“Excuse me bitch, but I’m pretty sure you’re the one who made this little accident here and I’m pretty sure my daughter did the apologies instead of you.” I said coolly and I saw KC nodded her head and the people surrounded us.

The blonde girl giving me daggers and her face was getting redder and redder. I could almost see an invisible smoke that comes out from her ears and nose.

“How dare you say those words to me!” she shouted and I saw the people backing away slightly from our fight. “Do you know who I am? I am the daughter of the famous and the biggest agency around the world.” She said smugly, “And I have a date with Prince Rayven Hanover tonight but your little shit ruins it.” She said pointing to my daughter.

I looked at her like she’s crazy and before I could response another insult, 5 gorgeous hot muscly guys walked behind the blonde girl. The hottest and gorgeous guy with brown hair asked the girl, “What is going on here,” he looked at the blonde girl and then to me.

He looked shock when he saw me. His eyes widen and his mouth was hanging on the floor. His gray eyes met mine and I raised a brow at him.

“Babe!” The blond girl shouted excitedly clinging on the guy’s arm. “I was just going to our table when that little girl bumped me and look…” she pointed her red dress, “she ruined it.”

I sighed, there’s no point on fighting this crazy chick. “Look, I’m sorry if KC ‘accidentally’ poured water in your dress. I can pay for the damage if you want. Just tell me how much so that this ‘childish’ game would be over.” I said giving up to the chick.

After I said the childish word, her expression darkens and she looked ready to kill. She stepped forward and I also step forward. She looked taken aback and now she was cornered with a wall behind her. I smirked, she’s scared of me, I though.

I thought the fight was over but she once again open her big mouth. “You little slut, how dare you called me a childish. You’re the one who’s childish in here.” She pointed a finger on me; I arched my brow at her and muttered an ‘Ow’. She flipped her hair off of her shoulder and stood up properly, “And I’m pretty sure you can’t afford my dress ‘cause…” she looked me up and down and I felt my temper getting higher. “You look like poor. Poorest than the rat,” she spat and looked at me with disgust. “I’m pretty sure you have a sugar daddy to buy you such expensive things that you wear right now.”

Then, she successfully hit my edge. “You bitch,” I shouted and started lunging towards her but I felt a strong arms held me back. I turned around and saw my brothers shook their heads at me sending a ‘don’t do it’ look.

I take a deep breath and nodded my head. Marcus releases me and the blonde girl smirked at me. I wanted to attack again and tear her head off but I don’t want to make the scene bigger. I know in this situation, I am defeated and it hurts my ego but I swallowed it and looked at the blonde girl.

“Look, I really don’t care what you think of me. Because everything you said is far from the truth. I don’t care who you are. Heck, I don’t even care if you’re the daughter of Obama, but I want to finish this off and I wanted to pay the cost of the damage of your dress. If you want, I’ll buy you a new one. Just please let’s not fight. So can you forgive us?” I said holding KC beside me.

The blonde chick looked at me then to KC, then back at me and a smirked played on her full lips. “Sure,” she muttered and I smiled. But the next thing happen wake the monster inside of me, when she slapped KC in the face…really hard.

The blonde girl smirked back at me, but this time if anyone blocked my way, I would personally kill them. I lunge the girl and punch her in the face over and over again like my life was depending on it.

Her face was priceless, fear flash in her pretty face. But I didn’t stop. I punch her over and over until I felt her underneath me that she’s going to collapse, I stood up. The place was silent. You could hear a pin drop on the floor. Then a collective gasp echoed in the restaurant.

My brothers held me back again and shouted ‘are you crazy’ but I ignored them. The 5 men helped the blonde girl stood up, a blood and bruises were everywhere in her face. Her pretty face now looked like crap. But I wasn’t done yet.

I saw a knife in the nearest table and throw it beside her face and heard more gasp in the background. The 5 men in front of me looked like they’ve seen a ghost. “If you ever do that again, I would personally kill you. You’re lucky; I give you a little life. You know, I’m not that rude and scary. But you leave me no choice. Don’t worry; you’ll probably heal for a couple of months, so good luck with that.” I pointed a finger on her. “You just made the biggest mistake of your life tonight.”

I reach out for my wallet and throw a couple of thousand dollars to the blonde girl. “Oh, and that’s for the damage of the dress. I’m pretty sure you can afford the hospital right? So I guess you’re good to go.” I dismissed her and walked back to the table. People make a way for me and looked at me with horror and amusement in their faces.

I turned one last time and look at the blonde girl, “Oh and just make sure to never cross my path again okay?” I waved at her and looked at my brothers who were looking at me like I just killed someone – which was almost true.

I take a shower
