"Now, let's discuss the main issues here. Sketchy, Stitchy, I want a matching drees and suit for my wife and myself"
Mrs. Stitchy start write down Verduny's order.
"Do you have any special requirements on the dress or on the suit, Your Excellency?"
Verduny look at Lydia.
*smile* "How do you want our clothes look, Lydia?"
Lydia get lighten up
*smile* "I want them on purplish blue color." *paused for a moment*
Lydia look at Bella, Bella bring a few paper to Lydia
"And the ornaments, I want it like this" *show the paper*
Lydia show the papers to the couples. The tailors observed the design on the paper then looked at each other.
*frown* "My apologies, Your Excellency. This ornaments were too complex and it took a full day to make these three ornaments. We don't have enough time to make the required number of the ornaments."
"Is that so?" *dispirited*
Lydia get a bit disappointed of it.
"Lydia, let me take a look at it"
"My Lord?"
Verduny take the paper on Lydia and inspected it.
*smile sinister* "Don't worry, Lydia. Jared could made this ornaments in no time."
"Really?" *full of hope*
"Of course" *smile*
"Thank you, my Lord" *hug Verduny again*
Verduny handed the paper to Edward
*look at Edward* "Tell Jared to made 100 each of this and he should finished all of it at 10 o'clock today if he wants to be forgiven for his previous mistakes." *smirk*
Vincent get goosebumps remembering the incident last night after heard Verduny words. Edward take the papers, bow to Verduny and leave the rooms. The tailors astonished.
"Your Excellency, this ornaments were really complex and difficult to made. It's almost a hours and half before 10 o'clock. And you want him to made 100 each of the ornaments?"
*glance at Mr. Sketchy* "He made a mistake before. He should be punished. Actually it's a light punishment for him." *indifferently*
The tailors speechless hearing Verduny
"My Lord, did Jared made some mistakes?" *curious*
*smile* "Is nothing important, don't worry about that."
Lydia still curious but didn't ask Verduny any further.
Meanwhile In Research team Workshop
*SWOOSH*
In the blink of eyes, Edward was in front of the workshop.
*knock knock knock*
Edward knocked the door, after awhile Jared open the door.
"Edward? Why are you here?"
*smile* "Jared, our Lord accidentally knew that you made Vincent and I drank that damn potion of yours. He was really mad back then"
Jared get cold sweats and anxious
*smile* "As punishment, he want you to finish 100 of each this ornaments." *show Jared the paper*
Jared took the paper hesitantly. Then after he inspect the paper, Jared took a relief breaths.
*relieved* "Although these item are complex and difficult, this were only an ordinary item. Did our Lord want me to make 100 of each this ornaments? That's too easy" *confused* *suspicious* "There was impossible for him to give any light punishment." *pondering* *hesitantly* "Did he told you anything else?" *bad feeling*
*smile* "You know the Lord really well, Jared. He want you to finish all of this in 10'oclock"
Jared turn around and looked at the time. Then he was shocked
*turn to Edward* *abruptly* "He want me to made 300 of this difficult items for an hours and half? Even if I'm a high level magicians, it's still difficult for me!" *complaining*
*smile* "Jared, it's your punishment. You can't complain about it. And don't think about ask for help from your comrades, you know that our Lord can tell in a glance which item were made from you and which item were made from others." *snickering*
Jared annoyed at Edward, he get in workshop abruptly and started working like crazy. Then Edward come back to guest room.
In Guest Room
Let's continue the last conversation.
"My Lord, did Jared made some mistakes?" *curious*
*smile* "Is nothing important, don't worry about that."
Lydia still curious but didn't ask Verduny any further. Meanwhile Mr. Sketchy started designing Lydia dress. After awhile there were 3 sketches of beautiful dress on the table. Mr. Sketchy started designing Verduny attire as soon as he finished designing Lydia dress.
"Your Excellency, please take a look at this sketch"
Mrs. Stitchy give the sketches to Verduny. Verduny and Lydia inspect the sketches together meanwhile Mrs. Stitchy get prepared to write any comments about the sketches.
*amazed* "My Lord, all of this are a beautiful dress. It's hard for me to choose one of them. Could you choose it for me, my Lord?" *looked up to Verduny with glittering eyes*
Verduny get quiet for awhile and focus inspecting the sketches.
*frown* "The number 1 are too revealing. My Lydia are a elegant Lady, she can't reveal her body to others. The number 2 are too simple, it's not suitable for Lydia. If she wear it, she'll looked too modest. The number 3 are the opposite, it's too extravagant. It didn't match Lydia images, next!"
Verduny complaint to all of them and put back the sketches to the table, Lydia amazed on him meanwhile Mrs. Stitchy busy writing Verduny requirements.
"Your Excellency, please take a look at your suit design"
Mr. Sketchy put 3 sketch on the tables and made a new design of dress as Verduny requirements that Mrs. Stitchy have wrote earlier. Verduny and Lydia inspect the sketch together again and Mrs. Stitchy get ready to writes any complaint again.
*sigh* "The number 1 are too stuffy, I won't wear it. The number 2 are too classy, I don't like it. The number 3 look like an armor, I will attend a Wedding not a war. And there's no need to add robe on it, I'm not a prince that ride on white horse. Next!"
Verduny complaints and put all of them to the table again, Lydia amazed on him again meanwhile Mrs. Stitchy still busy writing Verduny requirements.
"We've all your requirements, Your Excellency. Please wait for a bit"
The two tailors are busy, Verduny and Lydia enjoy the tea and snacks. After awhile.
*knock knock knock*
Sebastian open the door. Then Edward come in the room. Edward walk forward to Verduny.
*salute* "My Lord, I've finished my task."
"How is he?" *indifferently*
"He started his work as soon as he understand."
"Good job!" *indifferently*
Edward bowing then standing behind Verduny
"Mrs. Stitchy" *slowly*
"Yes, Your Excellency?" *stop working*
"I want to order other suits for my two aides too" *smile*
Mrs. Stitchy frozen meanwhile Mr. Sketchy didn't heard of it because too focus on designing.
*surprised* "My Lord, the Number 4 are your aide too?" *look at Verduny*
*smile at Lydia* "Yes, I just hired him recently. His named are Vincent Jasper" *stroke Lydia head*
Lydia look at Vincent and Vincent bow to her. Then Lydia look at Verduny again.
"But why did my Lord order a suit for them? Will they attend the wedding too?" *curious*
*continue stroking Lydia head* "Even though they're my subordinates, but they're still a noble too. All nobles must attend the Crown Prince Wedding."
"That's true. But Lyla and Erin are a noble too, right?" *pondering*
*look at Lydia* "Then, should we order more for them too, Lydia?"
*smile brightly* "Yes!"
Verduny and Lydia have a warm conversations meanwhile Mrs. Stitchy look anxious.
*abruptly* "Hold on, Your Excellency!"
"Did something wrong, Mrs. Stitchy?"
"You know that we only have 3 days before the prince's wedding, right?" *weak*
"Yeah" *indifferently*
*snap* *irritated* "We don't have enough time to make more suit or dress, Your Excellency!"
Verduny quiet for awhile
*smirk* "Aren't you the famous tailor in the empire? You can't do this much?"
*mad* "Your Excellency! Making clothes were different from picking flowers in the gardens!"
The room get quiet for awhile
"My Lord, don't push them too hard. How about just buying from their collection in the boutique for our subject?" *Lydia pursuing Verduny with glittering eyes*
"Is that so, too bad then" *indifferently*
Mrs. Stitchy take a relief breaths meanwhile Mr. Sketchy still focus on designing the dress and suits.
*smile* "Then Mrs. Stichy, please choose the suitable outfit for them from your boutique collections" *Lydia kindly ask Mrs. Stitchy*
*smile relieved* "Thank you, Your Excellency. I assure you, to choose the best dress and suits on our boutique for them"
After that, Mrs. Stitchy, Lydia and Verduny have a friendly talk while waiting for Mr. Sketchy finish the designs.
"My Lord, tell me how you met with Mr. Sketchy and Mrs. Stitchy, pretty please?" *suddenly*
*burst*
Mrs. Stitchy choked on his tea.
*smirk* "Truthfully, it was just a pure accident when I met them. At first, I only knew Stitchy then I know Sketchy when they started dating."
*abruptly* "Wait! Is it really alright to tell your story here? There are too many people in here." *panic*
"It's fine, they're all loyal to me and Lydia. They've take a vows not to harm us. If they violate their own vows, they'll dead right away." *indifferently*
The room get quiet for awhile.
"It's alright, Mrs. Stitchy. They are all the most trusted people in this manor" *smile*
Lydia try to dilute the atmosphere
*sigh* "As you wish then."
Mrs. Stitchy can only agree on that.
"Then my Lord, please continue your story"
"Well, almost of everyone know that I was the illegitimate son of the previous Duke on Amethyst Dukedom..."
Lydia, Vincent, Lyla, Erin shocked heard that.
*sigh* "Your Excellency, it seem not all of everyone here knew about it."
Mrs. Sketchy sighing
"That so, but it's the truth. Well, it can't be helped since my father did everything in his power to cover this fact up."
"Of course, no one want to have an illegitimate son. It's a disgrace for his family and could lower their ranking in high society" *Edward add arguments*
*smirk* "I don't care. But before coming to this Dukedom, I was traveled with my mother. It seems that she was traveling around for looking on something. I, who at that time didn't know anything, just followed my mother's journey happily. And I met Mrs. Stitchy on my journey with my mother in the past."
