Cold Hearted Princess

Chapter 7 Am I overthinking?

Alice

I sat on the side of the large pool. The weather was nice and warm. I closed my eyes, and I enjoyed feeling the sunshine on my skin.

I quickly turned around when I heard a familiar voice.

“Alice, so here you are. I was looking for you.”

Mrs. Sullivan walked closer, and I stood up suddenly.

“I’m sorry Mrs. Sullivan.”

“Oh, don’t apologise. I just thought you stayed in your room. So, I have some great news for you. You are going to meet the family today. I invited everyone for dinner. Get yourself ready. They will be here in an hour.”

“Yes, Mrs. Sullivan.” I nodded.

I felt like a pet again. She has got me now, so she invited everyone to have a look at me. Somehow, I accepted the fact that it would be like this from now on. After meeting Lilly, I only hoped that it was only me who thought too much, and they just wanted their son to marry someone they chose. I felt like I’d be happy to be their pet if that meant I could die naturally.

“Come Alice, I’ll help you. We choose a nice dress for you.”

She held my hand and looked quite excited. Okay. somehow I felt excited too when I thought about meeting Gideon. Unfortunately, I found him really handsome after seeing him in that picture.

When we arrived in my room, she opened the huge built-in wardrobe in the dressing room. She ran her fingers through the dresses, like she enjoyed feeling their material. I was sure she chose all of them, and also I was sure she loved shopping.

“This is the one.”

She said with some kind of possession, while she grabbed a dress and took it out of the wardrobe. I had to admit that it was nice. Its skirt was short, and it showed a bit of my body, but not too much.

Then she went to the shoes. She took a white sandal. It was also nice, even though it was a flat one. She looked at me with a smile.

“Come on, Alice, what are you waiting for? Have a shower, quickly.”

My eyes widened, and I immediately went into the bathroom. I did what she said, of course. I was about to step into the shower cabin when I heard her voice again.

“Don’t forget to shave yourself, Alice.”

She shouted from the dressing room, which was next to the bathroom.
