Chapter 1239 An Announcement

“Who’s there?” a chilly voice came from within.

“It’s me, Millie!” the girl cried out.

“What are you doing here? Didn’t I say you must stand guard at the entrance as a punishment?” the

woman inside reprimanded angrily.

“Cecilia, come and see who’s here. I’m sure you’ll be happy to see this person!” Millie replied in

excitement.

“I’m not buying any of your tricks. Three days. You’ll have to stand guard there for three days.”

“Come on, Cecilia. You’ll thank me for bringing this person here,” Millie implored.

“Fine!”

When she got her sister’s approval, Millie pushed the door opened and went in with Jared.

Upon entry, Jared saw a woman wearing red behind the table. Her features were exquisite, and her skin

was fair, yet her cold expression suggested she was worried and sorrowful.

The woman froze when she saw Jared.

“Jared, this is my elder sister, Cecilia Jingle. You can call her Lia. She’s the leader of Crimson Palace.

We call her Lady Jingle,” Millie introduced.

“Lady Jingle,” Jared greeted courteously. “I was walking around when I accidentally came across

Crimson Palace. I hope you don’t mind.”

Cecilia was still recovering from the shock, with her eyes glued to Jared.

“Cecilia! Jared’s talking to you!”

It was not until Millie had called her again that Cecilia finally snapped back.

“Hi, Mr. Chance. It’s good to see you. Have a seat,” Cecilia said, getting up from her seat.

When Jared was seated, she ordered the servants to bring some drinks.

“Millie, you should be on duty,” Cecilia reminded her sister once coffee was served.

“Cecilia…” the girl pleaded, looking at Jared.

It was apparent that she wanted to stay longer.

“This is an order,” the elder sister insisted with a severe expression.

The girl shot up immediately and hurried to the door, but before she closed the door behind her, she stole

one last look at Jared again.

With her gone, Jared was left alone with Cecilia in the room.

“Mr. Chance, are you here because of the announcement?” Cecilia asked casually after taking a sip of

coffee.

“Announcement? What announcement?” Jared was clueless.

“Is there a misunderstanding, Lady Jingle? I really stumbled upon this place by accident.”

Jared had no idea what announcement Cecilia was referring to, and when Cecilia saw his reaction, she

believed him and smiled.

“Well, never mind. Since you ended up here by chance, I guess it’s meant to be. We should give you a

warm welcome, but unfortunately, something’s up in Crimson Palace, so I’m afraid we might not be able

to host you for long. You will have to leave after two days.”

Jared was appalled when he heard that for he did not know what he had done to offend Cecilia.

According to Millie, Cecilia was an avid fan of his, and she even kept photos of Jared, but what he just

heard only showed that Cecilia was not altogether pleased to see him.

“Lady Jingle, it was not my intention to intrude. I’ll just leave if I’m not welcomed,” Jared replied.

After all, he did not mean to stay here for long.

“I’m sorry, Mr. Chance,” Cecilia answered.

“Oh, don’t worry about it. It’s my fault,” Jared blurted when he realized he might have sounded mean.

“Lady Jingle, the elders are here,” someone informed after coming in.

“Please excuse me, Mr. Chance. I have to go,” Cecilia said apologetically. “Feel free to go around the

palace. I already gave my orders to let you have free access to the palace.”

“Thank you, Lady Jingle.”
