"Young Miss, your father, the excellency is looking for you"

Victoria ignored the servant, and looked at the state of their house.

After Victoria inspected the state of the Campbell's House, Victoria frowned and asked Pao Pao

[You said, this is a declining family, but looking at the state of the mansion, it looks prosperous to me, the garden were taken care of, there are at least hundreds of servants, it doesn't look poor to me]

[I checked it, and it turns out, the reason why it is declining, because of your Uncle, after the Death of the Count, a year from now, he decided to take over the your family's affair. They used the Count's riches without care for the state of the Campbell's finance.]

Victoria frowned even further. [The Count died? Why? What is the reason?]

[A year from now, the original Lesha, asked his father to buy some jewelries from the the neighboring country, the count spoiled his one and only daughter, so he complied with his precious daughter's request, and decided to personally buy it. How unfortunate, on his way home, he was ambushed by bandits. Oh by the way they were not really a bandits, but a professional assassins hired by your dear Uncle. Since your Uncle took over the Campbell's affair, it was never investigated and was labeled as killed by the bandits.]

Victoria wanted to cuss this task. How the hell was this not complicated? I thought this was just a normal declining family?

Victoria rubbed her temple.

The servants who was following her from the start, were starting to worry, their Young Miss was acting very weird, instead of going to her Father, she decided to stroll around the Campbell's house and after she stops walking she suddenly looked troubled.

'Does she not like the garden?' The Campbell's gardener thought.

The servant ask with great respect. "Young Miss, did you find something wrong with the garden? Please say it Young Miss, and we will change it according to your orders."

Victoria frowned. 'You are going to be poor in the future and you still want to use money for useless thing?'

Victoria rolled her eyes. "Forget it, I'm going to Father, you don't have to follow me"

Victoria started walking inside the house.

With the help of Pao Pao, she arrived at the Count's office without being lost.

'This house is so big. Good thing I have a reliable map.'

If Pao Pao could hear her mind, he will probably cough blood. The mighty Tiger was regarded as a convenient map.

Victoria knocked three times, and opened the door.

According to Pao Pao, Victoria has really nice personality, though he was spoiled rotten by the Count, she was still able to grow up as a fine young lady, she was spoiled but she knew her limit, she never mistreated her servants, but instead treated her servants as her family. Of course, there is no such a perfect person, everyone has flaws, her flaw was her love for jewelries.

"Father! Sally told me that you're looking for me?" Victoria flashed a smile to the Count

Count William looked at her daughter and his initially stiff face became lively.

The Count was originally a cold person, after his wife's death, he became more cold, only to his daughter, Victoria was he gentle.

"You're here, the emerald necklace you wanted just came, I wanted to give you in person."

The count brought out an exquisite box. Victoria picked up the box and opened it. There she saw a deep green teardrop shaped necklace, it looks alluring yet simple, but when you stare at it real hard, you can see that it was made with great care.

Victoria hummed in approval. 'The original owner of this body, really knows how to pick jewelries. I like her taste'

The Count coughed three times.

Victoria was brought out from her dreamy state and looked at her father.

"Do you have something to tell me?"

Victoria grinned and jumped to hug his Father.

"You will be a fine young lady in three months but look at how you act, you are still clearly acting like a child." Though he was scolding his daughter, his, stiff face had a delighted smile on his face.

"What do you mean?" Victoria asked

"Young Lady, did you forget about your coming of age? You are turning eighteen in three months. You have repeatedly declined to have your party every year, but you can't decline this again alright? You haven't been exposed to the society, everyone was really curious about the Count's daughter, and your birthday is the perfect stage for your debut."

"Hmm. Okay, I agree, but I have condition."

The Count smiled. "Tell me what is it"

"You have to invite the Prince."
