Hearing this unsettling words from Evelynn's father, Damian could not help but feel a deep sense of worry wash over him. Yet, he maintained his composure, unwilling to betray any outward sign of his inner turmoil. With unwavering confidence, he replied, "Yes, I do not recall ever engaging in any forbidden activities." His tone was resolute, exuding a quiet strength that belied the tumultuous emotions swirling within.

Evelynn's father fell silent for a moment, then spoke with a small, almost patronizing smile, "Well, that's fine. But you must understand, lying is never a wise choice."

He paused, allowing the weight of his words to sink in, before delivering the news that sent a chill down Damian's spine. "And by the way, our marriage will be held in just 3 days. Make sure you are prepared."

Hearing this decree, Damian felt a sickness wash over him. How could this man, who had treated Evelynn with such cruelty and manipulatively, now be so casually arranging a marriage that would elevate him to the status of royalty? Damian seethed with indignation, believing that it was this very man who should face the consequences of his actions, not Evelynn. She was the one who deserved justice, not this callous individual.

Evelynn's father, seemingly oblivious to the turmoil he had stirred, smiled softly and nodded, then turned to take his leave, saying, "Well, don't forget to tell your dear sister. I'll take my leave. Enjoy your day."

As the man departed, Damian's eyes narrowed, his gaze burning with a righteous anger. How could a father be so callous, so indifferent to the well-being of his own child? Evelynn's treatment was an abomination, a cruel disregard for the love and respect she deserved as a member of the royal family. Damian knew that this man's actions were not only unjust, but a betrayal of the very foundations upon which the kingdom was built.

Meanwhile, Evelynn continued her journey to the clubhouse. Her steps slow and cautious as she approached the dimly lit hallway. There we're only few candles that can help illuminate the pathway. The darkness that enveloped the space filled her with a sense of unease, a nagging fear that this could be yet another trap. Evelynn hope this isn't some sort of lead-to-chaos thing.

As she neared the end of the corridor, she encountered a truly remarkable sight – a massive, ornate door. Evelynn stood before it, bewildered and uncertain of how to proceed.

After several failed attempts to open the door, Evelynn took a deep breath and spoke softly, "Please, I'm so tired now. Will you open up? Will you, dear door?" She paused, she feels a little lonely and bored, while looking at the door with pure hope.

Before Evelynn can finish her introduction, suddenly, to her utter astonishment, the door responded, its voice resonating with a otherworldly quality. "Hhmahh.. ughmm.. finally I'm awake! Oh.. owh.. You.. you are.. Evelynn Rosewood, you say?"

Evelynn's eyes widened in disbelief, her mind reeling at the realization that she was conversing with a sentient door. Swallowing her trepidation, she nodded slowly, her voice barely above a whisper, "Y-yes.. I.. I am."

Evelynn's head spun as she tried to make sense of this bizarre encounter. She felt utterly out of her depth, like she had stumbled into a world that defied all logic and reason. And yet, a faint glimmer of recognition stirred within her, a memory of a cryptic question that had been posed to her before.

Taking a deep breath to steady her nerves, Evelynn spoke, "I do remember a sentence that.. that I always found recently.. um.. it is 'will you let the painful truth out from the sweet lie, or will you cover up the sweet lie from the hidden truth?'"

Evelynn's heart raced as she stepped inside with a confused look, "what this door mean about the last word? I'm not dead, yet.. but then what is this possible mean.." Evelynn's thought keep growing and growing with the sense of the curiousness that grow with the thoughts. 324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCVo0svDM64

It just keep making no sense. Besides, Evelynn is just a regular citizen from Reaverrest village. She doesn't seems to know or at least remember anything about royalty from her life, but yet.. this door said so.

She look around with her eyes widening in awe at the grandeur of the space before her. She began to wander, her gaze drawn to the various artifacts and documents that adorned the walls. And then, a particular paragraph from a really old looking news paper caught her eye, speaking of a beloved Queen Eleanor and the tragedy that had befallen her child that is both reported by the kingdom's news reporter in 1912. It was a thrilling sight to bare, but it said to be a mystery till this day.

Evelynn's mind whirled, the implications of what she had read sending shockwaves through her understanding. As she pondered these revelations, a sound reached her ears – the noice that's disturbed her from a nearby passage not far from her, drawing her gaze and setting her heart pounding with a mixture of trepidation and curiosity. What could this noise come from and why it giving Evelynn chills... Could this be?!
