Ill- Ill take my leave now . Kara said , and left immediately . Hilda laid on her bed , and sobbed , before drifting off to sleep . The next morning … Hilda woke up to see Jacqueline sitting on her bed . Finally ! Ive been waiting for you to wake up . She said , smiling at her . 山 Jacqueline ? Wha- what are you doing here ? Hilda asked , still sleepy eyed . I came to see you . I thought you were banned from coming here . Please , leave . If Alexander sees you , he- Relax . Hes not here . He went to work . How do you know that ? I have my ways . Now get up . Hold on , dont you have work today , too ? Its my day off . And , you havent had fun in a while . Actually , Ive had fun . Marys birthday .

She continued . 14:26 False Name Falso Prido 23 Chapter 26 I said I have my ways , Hilda . Im not getting up till you tell me your so called ways , Jack . Okay , I tipped some guards and maids .

Hilda stood up and went into the shower . She smiled as she took her bath . She was really anticipating how their day would go . Soon , she came out from the shower , her hair wrapped in a bun , and a light blue towel wrapped around her chest ; covering the sensitive parts of her body . Hey ! Jacqueline yelled . Yes- did you say something ? Hilda asked , startled . I looked through your closet and picked out a dress for you . Im sorry . I was just lost in thoughts . And , whats going on in that pretty head of yours ? Jacqueline asked , staring at her . Its just- its just that Im scared . What if- what if Alexander comes ? What if Im caught up in another scandal ? Relax . Youve got nothing to worry about . Im here , arent I ? But what if- Hilda , calm down . Nothing will go wrong . Okay then . If youre sure .

People will definitely recognise me . Do you like the dress ? I do . I mean , it looks nice . Then , wear it . But- Wear it , Hilda . Okay , fine . But at least , I need a disguise , so I wont be recognised . Thats understandable . Here , take this . Jacqueline said , handing over a hat and dark glasses . Really ? Is this the disguise ? I mean , its fitting . Besides , its a sunny monday . And , where were going , Im sure you wont be recognised there . Okay , its better than nothing And , I hope youre really sure . Hilda then wore the dress , and disguise . Im ready . She said , happily . Youll eat before you leave . Jacqueline said . Hilda gave her an awkward gaze . Why ? Im not hungry .

Jacqueline yelled , dragging her feet . Ugh ! Im not hungry . But you havent eaten for the past three days . Thats extremely unhealthy , Hilda . And , thats one of the reasons why I came . Im not hungry . Get up ! Fine . Hilda said , giving up . She stood up from her bed , wore her heels , and went downstairs together with Jacqueline . Good morning maam . Kara said , dropping a large tray decorated with exquisite delicacies in front of Hilda and Jacqueline . Wow ! This is so much food ! It could feed five people , and still remain ! Jacqueline exclaimed . What can I say ? Welcome to my life . Hilda muttered sarcastically . She fumbled with the food before her , while Jacqueline ate hungrily . What are you waiting for ? Dig in ! Its really good ! Jacqueline said , with the contents of the food still in her mouth . Dont talk while youre eating , Jacqueline . And , when did you start caring about table manners ? Youve become so modest . Come on , I always cared about it . My Dad always said that while we are at the dining table , back home . But , thats not important now , Hilda . Start eating ! Okay fine . You didnt have to yell . Hilda said . She ate the food , and soon , finished the contents in it . I thought you wont finish all that . Jacqueline mocked . Damn ! I was really hungry . Hilda said , wiping her mouth with a neat napkin . 14:27 False Name . False Bride 23.5 % Chapter 26 Your makeup ! You ruined it . Calm down . I always carry my kit with me . Ill adjust it .

I think we should get going , Hilda . Im still making adjustments . Hilda said , adding a little blusher on her cheeks . Were way past the time . Okay , Im done now . Hilda said , standing up from the seat . Jacqueline also stood up , and Kara and some other maids hurriedly carried the tray , and the remaining food back to the kitchen . Afterwards , they went outside . So , well use my car . Jacqueline said . Of course . I dont own a car . What about all these cars ? Omg ! Is that a Tesla !? Jacqueline exclaimed , running over to where it was parked . Its Alexanders . Hes so cruel . He didnt even bother to get you one . I didnt ask . And , I dont want to . Itll be pointless .
