Chapter 311: Where should we go first?
"Eeeep!!" Scarlet squealed and covered her mouth to cover up the unexpected squeal which escaped her mouth involuntarily.
Dorian and Mega on the other hand did not hide their excitement, with Dorian jumping up and Mega grabbing the arm of the empress.
"Is it true?" she asked. "Is it really true?"
The empress was taken aback, not having expected them to be so excited at the thrill of perhaps returning to the capital. Did this mean that there was a chance for the blue star to be sold?
"Yes, you can pack up and return to your home in the capital if you please. I took the courtesy of having my people pass by your old house and it still stands as you left it. Some of your relatives moved in after you left, from both sides of the family. Dorian, your uncle Jovan has taken over your old businesses in your absentia. He has been managing the rest of your Su family." she dispensed further information.
Mega scoffed but Dorian did not react to that news. To her, those relatives were penny pinchers, selfish and heartless because they did not reach out even once when trouble befell their family. And yet, those same people did not hesitate to move in on their territory when they got the first chance.
The empress further pushed on and said, "I will be returning to the capital later today, but I can fly you back on my ship. I am sure that you are eager to visit your old territory and claim it back."
She watched them with a tiny hint of hope in her eyes which Scarlet observed. This was probably the hope of the royal family, for the Su’s to abandon the blue star and they could move in and take up a large territory. Had they planned to return their freedom to them initially?
She said, immediately, "Well, your highness, I can’t speak for everyone here but there is nothing left for me in the capital anymore and I have no plans to return."
"Me too." Carolyn said.
"Same." Beord said.
"Add me." Adler said.
"Don’t forget me." Fey said.
"Me too, me too." Gregor and Halley said, simultaneously.
"Our lives are very good here, so why would we move back." Mega said.
"But it sure is nice to know that we can visit other star planets now." Dorian added.
They had been living like prisoners here, stuck on the Blue star with no freedom. But that was all done now and they could move again.
"Maybe we should visit the capital briefly and kick those blood sucking relatives out." Mega suggested.
"Let’s just sell the building and all the businesses." Scarlet suggested.
Mega snapped her fingers and pointed at Scarlet, "Smart girl." she said.
"I will start looking for buyers immediately." Beord announced.
"And I will help." Carolyn announced.
The empress watched in surprise as things took an unexpected turn which she had not foreseen. The plans to buy the blue star would have to be frozen completely.
"Now that we can move, where should we go first?" Fey asked.
"Grey star." Scarlet declared.
"Why?" her mother asked.
They were slowly moving, gradually moving away from the table and dispersing in different directions. Esong and Markey were leading the empress out, as she intended to start packing up immediately.
The empress was moving slowly, she intended to eavesdrop and listen to Scarlet’s reasoning behind visiting the grey star. This was the second time the grey star was being mentioned in the castle. The first was when Markey said that he had just paid it a visit and the condition of the people was embarrassing.
Why all this sudden interest in the grey star? Should the royal family purchase large bouts of land there?
Scarlet was explaining to her mother, "I acquired some land there to build an eco resort. I am also interested in the buzzing insects which sting anyone who comes close to the area. I also heard that the surrounding area smells sweet, so I figured that there must be something special. Besides, have you seen the view of the cliffs and ocean, it’s the perfect spot for vacationing."
"I could use a vacation." Elroy said.
"That’s because your body is beaten black and blue daily." Mega told him. "When is this phase ending?"
"It’s not a phase mother, I have found myself." Elroy declared.
"And he has found women." Fey added.
Mega hissed and shot daggers at Elroy, "What women?"
"Feeey!!" Elroy groaned.
Fey’s words reminded Scarlet of something that she had been meaning to bring up with her mother.
"I think we need to have a serious conversation about life partners in this family otherwise some of you are going to bring the wrong kind of people into the family. You should all remember that now that we are doing well, greedy people will flock towards us."
"That’s true," Mega concurred with Scarlet and she pinched Elroy’s ears hard. "Did you just hear what your older sister said? We do not need one of you to bring an...." she looked around, curious to see if Esong or Emmett was close and they were so worded her language carefully and said, "You know who, also known as Cruella in this family."
"Mother, I would never." Elroy said vehemently.
"How would you know if you are running around with many women whose characters are unknown." his father asked.
Elroy groaned and said, "Dad, those are fans, not girlfriends. Fey is so nosy and she is spreading misinformation."
Fey smiled villainously and said, "I have pictures."
Elroy lunged at her, grabbing the phone in her hands while shouting, "Oh my God you tattletale, how old are you? Do you think that we are still kids? I can tattle on you too, I heard that Lloyd’s sister call you her sister-in-law."
The empress glanced back at them briefly and shook her head. "Are they always like this?" she asked.
"The Su’s are very...uhm...playful." Markey answered.
"Let’s go with that." the empress said. "But they are quite interesting, it’s never boring in this castle and I am going to miss it."
"You can always return and visit again. Our doors are wide open to the royal family." Esong told her.
As everyone dispersed, Scarlet found herself left alone, as she followed Esong and Markey out of the main castle gates to where the cars which she was using waited.
One of the guards whispered to her and she frowned. Apparently, Amara was here, again, demanding to see Adler.
"Your highness," she called out to the empress before she could leave.
The empress turned around and faced her, "Yes governor Scarlet."
"Is it.., uhm...can you request the RGB to rescind an appointment?" she asked, hesitantly.
The empress smiled knowingly and said, "Amara Leopold!"
"Yes, but how?" Scarlet asked, surprised.
"Is there anything I don’t know." the empress replied. "I will look into it and see how I can help."
"Thank you." Scarlet bowed slightly.
The empress left with Markey and as soon as the car was out of castle view, she told him, "Buy land on the grey star, only the one with the view as she said."
