Keith POV

----The Same Morning when Keith slaps Minerva again---

I sighed as I looked at the stacks of papers that I had to do. Liberty is in it's most crucial times right now. One of our most famous and important bank is bankrupt. Hah. I inwardly sighed. Then Luke came. "Dammit, Luke what is it?" I asked annoyed. "The King ordered you to go to the throne room, Your Highness." I nodded. "Tell him I'll be there in a moment." "Yes, Your Highness." After Luke left, I looked at the stack of paperworks again. Hah. If she was here........ I shook my head from that thought. Dammit, Keith. You can't be thinking about girls right now. Liberty is in its most crucial times.

I sighed as I headed towards the throne room. Father was there, all high and mighty on his throne. "You called, Father?" He looked at me. "Ah, Keith, you're here. So how is the bankruptcy going." I inwardly sighed. "Right now, we are trying to get the money back to the bank, but the investors of the bank are all investing to other banks and stopped investing in our bank." Father nodded. "I assume it must be hard for you to do all that by yourself. So I have someone here to help you. Miss Vineyard, you may come in." My eyes widened. It couldn't be her, can it? The very woman I was thinking about was in front of me.

She put a polite smile on her face as I was pretty sure she was smirking inwardly at my shocked face. I couldn't help it. She politely bowed.

"Your Highnesses. It is a great honor to be here. And for a plain lawyer to be in here too. But I will try my best." I inwardly rolled my eyes. I could tell that she said that too everyone. Father nodded approvingly and suddenly chuckled. "What do you mean by a plain lawyer? You, Miss Vineyard, is the top lawyer even with all the lawyers of the 6 nations combined!" I glared and was shocked.

Father turned to me. "Miss Vineyard here, will work with you until the bankruptcy ends. You two may now leave." I was about to protest but I knew better to not argue and wanted to be the mature one because she just bowed her head. I walked out of the throne room, knowing Minerva is following me. As soon as we were in my office, I suddenly turned to her, can't bottling up my questions and frustration. "You! What are you doing here?!!" I shouted.

She smirked and crossed het arms, as she leaned against my desk. "Now, is that how you greet your guest?" She asked while tilting get head. The nerve of this woman!! I growled. "Stop playing around. I know the true you, so take off that polite mask." She grinned making me boil with anger. "Fine. So then. Since my "mask" is off, let's get to business." She said while making the bunny ears. I scoffed inwardly.

I was still standing, thinking about why Father will have her to be the lawyer. There was more talented people out there, than her. I was still deep in my thoughts, while she sat in front of the desk. I was interrupted by my thoughts by Minerva. "What are you doing? Sit down, already." I furrowed my eyebrows and sat down.

She took out the papers for the bankruptcy and started to talk. "So for the bankruptcy, I found some people that I think will be the people that would be the most likely to start this bankruptcy. As you see, you are a prince and all, so you have like a million girls wanting you. The daughters of these 3 people: Nicole Keudoraf, Anaisa Mendez, and Breanna Carruth, had all requested to have an audience with you, but you shook them off, and may I say, rudely." She said, but I was barely hearing what she was saying.

"They were heartbroken and also very mad. As you see Nicole's father, Cole Keudoraf, is the Prime Minister of the neighboring kingdom, Kandfer. Which makes her in a very high and notable position. Anaisa Mendez is the daughter of Eugene Mendez, who is the CEO of the Mendez foundation. And if you don't know what the Mendez foundation is, Mr. Arrogant, it is the company that made your castle's expensive decorations. So the last is, Breanna Carruth. She was actually adopted by the multi-billionare, Alexander Carruth. So this leads to-" I didn't even notice she stopped talking. I was still deep in my thoughts when I was hit by a folder.

"Hey! What do you think you're doing?!!" She glared at me. "What did I just say? Name the three daughters that I had just said." I turned red, but prayed that she didn't notice.

"Uhhhhhhh........" I trailed off. Way to go, Keith. She sighed while rubbing her temple. "If you don't want to do this, we can do this later. If you aren't going to cooperate with me, we can't get anything done. Pay Attention." She said coldly while glaring at me. That's it! I'm done with this!! I stood up.

"Even if I wasn't paying attention, you have no right to tell me what to do. I am the Crown Prince of Liberty and the next king of Liberty Kingdom. Watch your language."

I smirked inwardly. She deserves it! But to my surprised, she sighed. "Do I have to deal with this? You might think you might've said something wise or something like that. But, let me tell you something, Your Highness. You sound like a spoiled brat. You are 25 years old, correct? You are older than me by 3 years old. So start acting like it. Right now you're acting like a three year old. Start acting like the next king of Liberty." She said coldly and glaring at me. I was shocked that someone would dare to say this to me.

I felt my face turn into bright red as I went around my desk, and went towards her. "What did you just say?" I asked lowly, trying not to lose my temper. "Oh, I just said that you are like a spoiled brat." She said while smiling innocently. I growled. This woman needs to learn a lesson, to not mess with

Again, I slapped her. But this time, I felt no remorse or pity for her. She deserved it. But to my surprise, I saw the tears dropping. Ah, dammit! Now I made her cry!! Should I say I'm sorry? But despite my thoughts, I just stood there, as she was on the floor, crying and holding her cheek. To make things even more worse, I said,"You deserved it." Great job, Keith! Now you've done it!

I saw her thinking and then the next thing I know, she's sobbing hysterically and screaming.

"Mark. Mark! Mark!!! Mark!!!!! MARK!!!!!!!!!! I'M SO SORRY!!!!!!!!!!!!!! MARK!!!! COME BACK TO ME!!!!!" Jealousy instantly sparked inside me. Wait, why am I feeling jealous? . "MARK!!!!!!! I'M SO SORRY!!! FORGIVE ME!!!!!"

I inwardly sighed as I got her on top of my lap. I thought she would be screaming at me, to let her go, but surprisingly, she didn't.

"Are you okay?" I asked. After looking at me, she started sobbing and wailing again. What did I do?!! "MARK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" She kept screaming until she regained her mind. She stood up and wiped her tears. "I'm sorry. I'm not in the right mental state right now, to be your lawyer. I will get a suitable lawyer to replace me. And for the King, I will send a letter, explaining everything. Forgive me, Your Highness." She whispered while bowing. What? She's just going to leave?!! I was about to stop her when she suddenly turned around and set a wrapped box on top of the coffee table.

"And also, this is to show my gratitude. Thank you for the ointment, Your Highness. Please excuse me." She whispered while exiting. I ran to my window to see her walk quickly out of the Manse and towards her car.

"Dammit!! What do I do now?!!!!!!"
