Chapter 54 Introductions
[ Present Day ]
Edith is standing, waiting for her guests to arrive. She was informed earlier that there will be three people accompanying Samuel.
She saw a luxury sedan pulling over near the gate. Many people own expensive cars coming and going, but this one looked special. As someone who mingled with the elite, she had a specific understanding of automobiles, but her assistant spoke from her side to confirm her suspicion.
"That's the new model of Rolls Royce, Rolls-Royce Corniche; it is still in production. It is set to be released next year. To own it this early, it must be them. " Mixalis said.
The Rolls-Royce Corniche is a large, high-end, two-door, four-seater luxury convertible car. Its set to debut in January 2000 made it Rolls-Royce's first new model in the 21st century, as well as the leading first new model to bear the Corniche name, after four series derived from the Silver Shadow.
" Remember what we discussed in the meeting, and don't be overly excited in front of them. It makes you look like a stalker, which, if I think about it, technically, you can be considered as one." Edith reminded Mixalis.
" I understand. " Mixalis said, assuring Edith.
They heard a few footsteps of people walking around them stop, making them focus in front of them. The group of four is led by a couple who appear to be in their 20s, followed by a young child and a man wearing a traditional butler uniform.
The man is dressed in casual clothes, with slightly long blonde hair with crystal blue eyes; he looks rather handsome despite his lack of formal demeanor. His female companion walked toward Edith with interlocking hands, which gave away the nature of their relationship. Surprisingly female wore formal attire; She had exquisite facial features with dark brown eyes, and her wavy long red hair flowed seamlessly with each passing step.
She quickly recognized the couple in a single look. They had quite a reputation in the film industry, and their love life is also famous among their peers: George and Amelia Rothschilds.
They say that Amelia's success is facilitated and is the handiwork of George with the help of his family, but those were rumors floating around the public to tarnish their name.
Contrary to public beliefs, those people who work within the industry know the truth that Amelia fought a hard and long battle for the establishment of her Agency. George also supported her decision and established his own repertoire in directing, becoming one of the highest-rated directors in a short time.
They also semi-permanently settled in the USA to vanquish the rumors about Rothschild supporting them. Now their story is a famous success story in Hollywood. Granted, they had a headstart in their career, but the rest can be accounted for by their own willpower and determination.
Edith snapped out her thoughts and finally focused on the 'child' of the hour who was trailing beside the famous couple.
" How is this possible? How can anyone be so--" She thought, but Mixalis muttered simultaneously to her thought.
" Perfect "
" Yes," She agreed wholeheartedly with Mixalis' assessment.
White and pure form from head to toe, without any blemishes or defects. Long white hair pulled into a ponytail gives a feminine look, but you can somehow tell that he is a boy. Green eyes piercing through the soul showed that he possessed something which could look through a person's soul. His gait perfectly embodies the meaning of perfection. His appearance shocks Edith.
" Where the hell did they find such a person? Am I dreaming, or has Angel descended to bless my Academy? " Edith thought to herself.
" Madam, I think we don't have to worry much about it now. He could quickly get secondary or a role below that easily with a face like that. " Mixalis said with excitement. Edith's workload and worries are directly reciprocal to his. He could relax a little or even enjoy the next few months with fewer worries.
" Idiot, I think we have a much larger issue now. We were worried about him chasing others in the Academy, but now It will be the other way around. With a face like that, people will surely flock to him. Sigh, why does fate have to test me like this?" Edith expressed her frustration.
The group soon, the two of them, and George initiate the conversation.
" Lady Edith, I didn't know that you would personally welcome us. It is good to see you again."
"Well, I also didn't know you would come over today. It is good to see you too. Five years and now you have become quite famous around the world. I heard you have wrapped the shooting of your new movie. I am always excited about your recent work. " Edith replied.
" Thank you. Your teaching helped a lot which I am thankful for. Let me introduce you to the others. This is my wife Amelia, whom you might remember from my previous visit. And the boy beside her is Samuel, who will be attending the Academy, and the young man beside him is Oscar; He will oversee Sami's stay here. You can count on him if you encounter any problem regarding Samuel. " George explained everyone's role to Edith.
" Wow, I can't believe, one day I could meet Sir Oscar " Invincible" in the flesh. I have only heard stories about you. Are you really 'THE' Oscar from the Rothschild family? " Mixalis exclaimed with eager eyes like he had met the God himself. f𝓇𝘦e𝑤𝘦𝚋𝒏૦ѵℯ𝒍.c𝐨𝒎
Everyone became confused except for George and Oscar, who knew what he was talking about. Edith stared daggers through her eyes which seemed to calm the fanboy down, but he still anticipated the answer to his questions.
" Umm, those are exaggerated stories when I used to follow Lady Mary. It's all nonsense, really. " Oscar gave a haphazard answer to calm everyone down.
" So, you are Sir Oscar. I can't believe it. Can I ---" Mixalis tried to fanboy some more when Edith interjected in between, making the situation worse.
" Please excuse this Idiot. He is always spewing nonsense. Anyways, welcome to the Academy. It is a pleasure to meet you, Amelia, Samuel, and Oscar. I will introduce you to the person responsible for teaching you. They are odd, but I hope you will get along with them If you can follow me."
" It is my honor, Lady Edith. " Amelia responded.
" I hope you will guide me in the future. I will work hard to not be a nuisance." Samuel said in a strange, respectable tone, accounting for his age. It seemed like he knew about the Academy's dilemma regarding this situation.
" I see; Samuel is a smart child. We will get along just fine. Now, if you follow me. Your teacher is waiting for you inside." Edith nodded, satisfied with Samuel's performance. His demeanor showed humility, compassion, and understanding, which are excellent quality have despite his immense background.
