' Dad... I'm so sorry for everything... But I can't take it anymore... I..I... I'll... have to ...b..break my promise.'

*Bang*

Shini Tore instantly looked back in the direction where she heard the sound from.

It was the sound of the maroon door opening and closing.

A woman elegantly dressed in all black was standing near the doorway with her hands behind her back.

She bowed down and said

'Good Morning Madam, You didn't come down for breakfast so I came to check up on you.

How are you feeling Ma'am? Would you like to have breakfast in bed today?'

Shine Tore looked up at the small, pink and smiling face of the woman and understood that this was no other than Minamoto Ai.

' I would appreciate that, thank you Ai ', Shini Tore replied.

' Bacon and Eggs Please, I'm famished. ', Shini said, blinking her eyes and yawning, trying to showcase as if she had just woken up, and smiling softly at Ai.

'Sure Thing Madam, Anything else?'

' No, Nothing for now '

' Yes Madam'

Minamoto Ai bowed down and turned around to leave when she suddenly turned around and said

' Pardon me Madam but Young Master told me to remind you that you have to attend the evening party today conducted by the Smiths from The United States.'

' Wait, what? An evening party?' , Shini Tore asked, puzzled.

' Yes Madam, The conflict between the Smiths and Hikaris has been resolved and The Smiths' deal with Hikari Enterprise and Organisations has been finally sealed recently and now they are holding a party to celebrate their joint venture.'

Putting her hand in her pocket, Minamoto Ai took out a translucent pad and placed her palm on it and swiped it across the room and visualised a hologram, containing a " To-Do List" and started explaining about it to Shini Tore, who was sitting on the bed with an extremely bewildered and addled expression, trying to process about what had just taken place in front of her.

After that Mr Ramon would be arriving at the apartment for your hairdressing and makeup styling.

For your dresses, Young Master has placed some gowns and dresses that would be appropriate for the party.'

' Where is the Young Master at the moment?'

' He has left for the office Madam, It's already 10 am. Would You perhaps like to talk to him?'

'No, continue'

' Yes Madam, and by 6 pm, Mr Tama would be driving you to the airport'

' The airport?'.

' Don't you remember Madam? The Smiths had decided that the victory over the deal between them and the Hikaris would be commemorated in Singapore.'

Shini Tore widened her eyes and looked intensely perplexed.

' For the Weekend Madam '. Minamoto Ai responded.

' What is the date today Ai?'

Minamoto Ai squinted her eyes in confusion.

'11th October Madam'

'11th October? Oh ok Ai, thank you so much'

' No problem Madam, You're breakfast would be here soon Madam and I would be back in 15 minutes, ', Minamoto Ai said, bowing down. and leaving the room.
