IRIS LOU POV
FLASHBACK THE TIME I RUN AWAY IN THE PALACE.
"PAK!" The sound of my father hitting me in his palace office.
"Lou, how much longer will you make me feel ill?!!" Da yelled at me cause i just embarrassed the daughter of his investor who arrived from the States.
"Dad, she was the first to make a mess! I hope nothing untoward happened at the party if she didn't merely pour me booze on purpose." I declare it without fear,
"Lou! Damn it! Alcohol can't kill you; why didn't you just let it go? Look what you did: Mr. Gregory retreat investing in our company; you know how well-known Mr. Gregory is in the United States." He reprimanded me sharply.
"Dad, you are the king of the country where you are now, so a lot of money comes to you, and then you hurt me? your own child? just because of your worthless investor!" I told him in a furious tone, I resisted crying in his face because I didn't want to suggest that I could only be vulnerable around him.
I'm not that strong, but I'm strong in combat because my brother and I have been practicing our fighting skills since we were young. As a result of the challenging training I underwent as a child, I broke several bones. My older brother, who seemed pretty reasonable to me at the time, changed into a psychopath without anyone around him noticing.
He simply killed my old brother old self, and dad was no longer concerned about my brother changing.
He stared at me sharply and said, "You're just a kid, don't answer me. " He is no longer our father; back when our mother was still living, he used to call me his darling princess.
"You are not the father I knew in the past. When I was a kid, you weren't the father I knew. I used to be your princess, dad, so how dare you speak to me in such a loud voice!" I mumbled to him, I fall down on floor and my leg is getting weaker.
I couldn't lift my hand, "So you merely have to throw me away now. Dad, what's going on? What did you show my older brother and I if this is all a lie when Mom was still alive?" I stared up at this question with my eyes getting darker because I couldn't stop crying.
"DAD, WHY CAN'T YOU RESPOND? !! DUE TO THE FACT THAT IT IS, HUH!" I growled at him. I shook my head in frustration as I bowed down.
"Don't attach the long-dead Lou! A 5 MONTH GROUND IS IN EFFECT! get out of my sight right away! Never leave your room, either. For five months, if you refuse then you can stay in the Dungeon." He stated icily while avoiding looking at me. As he turned his back and prepared to approach his swivel chair,
I look dismayed at him and say, "Are you truly like that and you can put me in the prison as your own child?"
"If necessary I'll do it" He said to me while turning his back I can't see his expression because he turned his back on me but you can see the extreme coldness of his voice.
“You're a monster" I said angrily to him.
I made a point of telling him, "You'll regret this," before I walked out of his office and into my room. I dressed comfortably before packing so that I could later easily elude the royal guards and find whoever was wandering around the palace.
I grabbed my cellphone and dialed a reliable employee's number, Dexter.
"Ring ring" He responded after just two rings.
"What do you need?" he asked straightly.
"Prepare your private jet. We will leave this country secretly; make sure that it is the one you will use so that we cannot be found." I told him.
He ended the phone by saying, "Fine, let's simply meet at the airport," so I next contacted Aunt Carmine, the mother of my childhood cleopard.
"What made you dial Hija?" She stated on the other line, and I just sighed since she is the only person I can trust.
"Auntie, I'm leaving Greece and I'm going to the Philippines tonight, and I don't want you to tell anyone where I am because you're the only one I can trust." I informed her in Italian.
"Why are you leaving HIJA?" She questioned.
"I'll be explaining it to you next time, Auntie, I'm losing too much time now and I really need to go." I hung up the phone after saying that, I know she won't let me down.
Even though I was prepared, I went outside on my balcony first to see if any bodyguards were there since I would pass by later and climb the wall to leave the roadway behind. Time went by. As it got later in the evening, I dropped my cellphone on my room's floor to prevent them from finding me.
I stepped over to the veranda after putting on my backpack. I looked around to see if there was a royal guard nearby, but when I couldn't see any, I leapt. I gently touched down on the surface.
I carefully made my way to the back of the palace and, as soon as I arrived, climbed the tall wall with ease because there was a tree on the side. As soon as I reached the top, I leaped onto the road and instantly turned onto the correct side of the street.
A taxi finally stopped in front of me after I had been waiting for 15 minutes. I continued, so.
"Take me to the airport." I said as I entered inside the car.
"Yes , ma'am." The driver responds.
FAST FORWARD
The large Athens International Airport in Greece was in front of the automobile when it stopped. Before leaving and entering the airport, I gave him my money. They recognized me, so the guard didn't try to stop me when he spotted me.
I traveled to Dexter's location and asked him to direct me to the Philippines. Together, we made our way to his private aircraft. His two flight attendants welcomed me right away when we got there.
We step up and took a seat in the aircraft. He handed me an envelope when he was seated in front of me.
"I changed your last name temporarily Iris Lou Clifford and you can't use Ephraim." He explained.
“There. It will be about you. You're poor, so when someone asks where you're from, say the province. You also need to find work to support yourself because you can't use a credit card because your dad might easily find you." He advised, and I just nodded.
I took a snooze first because I knew the trip was still a ways off while the plane kept flying through the skies.
