Several maids were seen passing by cleaning one of the luxurious rooms on the fourth floor, right in a room that looked quite wide and quite secret. Meanwhile, Lavelle and Daniela chose to pull over and have breakfast by the large swimming pool, with Japanese dishes looking very delicious and still warm with a thin smoke rising high.
Very tasty sushi, oden, and tempura served with a small bowl of oyster sauce tossed with a dash of lemon juice. Lavelle and Daniela were really treated like queens by the maids. In fact, they were very respectful and loyal to all the orders of the two girls.
The food was already too much for both of them. However, Lavelle still asked the maids to bring a cup of coffee. Meanwhile, her round eyes always turned to the large window to the north — it seemed Theophile was so busy that he hadn’t been able to see Lavelle since that morning, even after meeting Theophile immediately. Ordered some maids to clean the family meeting room on the fourth floor.
“You miss him?” Daniela asked surprisingly, to Lavelle, who was still staring at Theophile’s bedroom window.
Lavelle dodged a bit and cut the tempura on her plate into two halves and then tossed it in the oyster sauce. “Who do you think I missed?”
“Maybe you miss Theophile. I don’t care how many times you lie about your own feelings, I can still guess. You miss him even though your eyes are wider than before, isn’t it obvious that you’re in love with that vampire?” asked Daniela while taking a bite of her oden.
Lavelle rolled her eyes very lazily when she heard Daniela’s hypothesis. “Maybe I just feel sorry for him because he’s too cute to hurt.”
“Do you think Theophile is that cute? Well, Theophile is very soft-hearted even though he is the leader of Neo Green Peace. By the way, Theophile’s brother from yesterday was also very handsome, even his dimples kept me from sleeping well all night.” Daniela is so radiant today.
“Jeffrey? He is very handsome although I often see him as a cute baby boy and his cheeks look like ripe peaches.” Lavelle nodded. “Are you interested in him?”
“Oh, God. Honestly, I’m fascinated by that vampire,” Daniela muttered as she devoured the oden she ordered.
“If Mark is a vampire, hasn’t he been reading your mind all along when you mutter, adore and often look at other men? You often like more than one guy, is that okay?” asked Lavelle.
“That’s none of my business, my dear. Because I think we are still too young to discuss which man is the most established for a life partner and I have the right to choose unless Mark comes to me and claims that I am his in front of everyone.” Daniela shrugged, feeling that what Lavelle was talking about at that time was not too important to discuss.
“But you always compliment Mark,” said Lavelle.
“Lavelle, Mark is a weird vampire,” Daniela said later, “Oh come on, I don’t think he’s taking that seriously either.”
Not long after, a maid came in with a tray of two cups of dalgona coffee which was still steaming hot and looking very tempting. The maid with golden blonde hair immediately bent down and placed two cups on the table of the two young girls.
“Would Mrs. Blanc likes to add a pinch of palm sugar on top of your coffee?” she asked.
“No, can I have a fruit salad with grated cheese on top? I’d also like a small piece of caramel and strawberry jelly flavor. It’s still quite early but very hot.” Lavelle put down both chopsticks, then took a cup of coffee and took a sip.
“Okay, it is Mrs. Blanc and Miss Montefalco want a relaxing soak? If Mrs. Blanc and Miss Montefalco are interested, I will tell Jessica to prepare it immediately,” muttered the maid once again.
Lavelle glanced at Daniela for advice.
“Quite an interesting offer, I agree.”
“Okay, I want to go there. Maybe a few minutes after we finish coffee,” said Lavelle later.
The maid nodded and immediately left in front of the two girls.

Lavelle was just about to enter her room when she suddenly heard footsteps behind her accompanied by a whistling sound. Lavelle turned her head and found Theophile walking towards Lavelle, a clear smile drawn on Theophile’s handsome face, his green eyes twinkling slightly when his eyes met Lavelle’s.
It was only seven o’clock in the evening, and it looked like Theophile had just returned from an important meeting because Theophile was still wearing that expensive red suit when he walked over to Lavelle, who had just finished bathing.
“Hey sweetie… did you have fun today?” asked Theophile with a faint smile.
“I thought so, we soaked for half a day and asked the maids for a lot of food. I think your food supply will run out very soon,” Lavelle replied with a slight sigh.
Theophile nodded. “No big deal, by the way, did you miss me? I’ve had a bit of a busy schedule since morning, I’m sorry.”
“Why are you apologizing to me? Isn’t that your job as a leader?” Lavelle tightened the knot in her bathrobe and rolled her eyes, feeling a little annoyed.
Theophile chuckled then nodded once again. “I’m a little upset about this, I’m sorry. I must always be around you and comfort you during your recovery. Umh... how about we having dinner together later? In exchange for time with you?”
“Dinner together. You are sure?” Lavelle repeated, raising her eyebrows.
Theophile nodded.
“You have so many important things to do, why are you even taking me out to dinner?” asked Lavelle then.
Theophile smiled wryly. “No big deal, I’ll just be eating alone with you since I left you all day. I love you so much and anything you want. I will give it to you.”
Lavelle sighed slightly in disbelief at what Theophile had said. A slightly less than reasonable choice for a leader to make. How could he possibly choose to prioritize Lavelle over his brother and important events?
“Do you agree? What would you like to have?” asked Theophile then.
“I don’t know, I don’t have any small plans,” Lavelle muttered.
“Alright … I’ll take care of it myself as I please. You can rest first. You can go straight to the roof if you wake up. You look a little tired from having fun all day.” Theophile nodded slowly, then looked back at the cute girl.
“I don’t feel tired in the slightest.”
Tristan smiled faintly, then gently caressed Lavelle’s cheek. “You look very tired, rest. Don’t worry, I will prepare everything.”
“Don’t make me feel that I’m too important in your life,” Lavelle mumbled, slightly feeling bad for messing up an important event in the big handsome vampire family.
Theophile chuckled, however, still showing her cute face in front of Lavelle. “You don’t have to be afraid of something that’s definitely not your fault.”
“Okay, I agree to come with you tonight,” Lavelle said.
“Now go to sleep. See you later.”
Lavelle was just getting ready to re-enter her room when Theophile grabbed her arm again and flashed an absolutely perfect smile.
“Don’t forget to always smile, because your smile is very beautiful.”
Then a peck landed on Lavelle’s forehead.
