Joy arrives at the palace

After twelve hours of traveling, Sir William, lady Gloria and Prince Jason arrived at the palace with Joy

Sir Andrew and Lady Mary-Yolanda(the parents of Sir William), Sir George (his younger brother) and some family members were at the gate to welcome them.

As they neared the palace, Joy looked astonished so Jason asked , please are you alright?

I'm fine but where are we? Joy asked

Joy, from today onwards, this is where you will be living dear. Welcome: Lady Gloria said

b-b-bbb-but this is looks like the palace: Joy asked surprisingly

you are right Joy this is the palace: Jason replies

Do you work here? Joy questioned

Don't worry dear you will get all your answers after we are inside: William said

alright sir; Joy nodded

Finally they got to the palace gate

welcome my dears: Lady Mary-Yolanda said

Thank you mother: both Sir William and Lady Gloria bowed before hugging them

Hello grandmother, grandfather and uncle: Prince Jason greeted and hugged them

Mother, father and George please let me introduce Joycelyn Blankson the young lady we found. Joy meet my parents and my younger brother: Sir William introduced Joy

hello ma'am, hello sirs: Joy greeted

pardon me but what did you say... lady Mary-Yolanda was about to say something but was stopped by Sir William

Let's go inside everyone is waiting

Mother, Father Joy doesn't know who we are yet: Sir William whispered to his parents

but why, you should have told her before bringing her here: Sir Andrew questioned his son

I know but the girl seemed troubled: Sir William replied

alright but she is beautiful: Lady Mary-Yolanda said

They went to meet the Emperor's parents.

Sir William greeted his elder brother by bowing his head and his wife greeted in a way a royal lady is supposed to greet

Welcome Brother please have a seat: says Sir Stephen as he sat down with his wife and Prince Augustine

Brother please let me introduce to you Joycelyn Blankson, the lady we found: Sir William said

Lady Mary-Yolanda whispered softly to Sir Stephen and Lady Melissa: she doesn't know who we are yet and who she will marry. Sir Stephen's facial expression changed but he nodded.

You are welcome to our home and city: lady Melissa said

After they were done having tea,Sir Andrew, Sir William, Sir George, Prince Jason and Prince Augustine were called out by Sir Stephen

William, we should tell Joycelyn where she is and why she is here before we introduce her to the Emperor, our long distance relatives and the council or else we might have situation

Alright Brother: says Sir William

while the men were talking outside, the ladies were having a conversation and Gloria was telling them about her trip until lady Melissa noticed Joy's body was shaking

My dear, are you alright? Lady Melissa walked up to her and asked

i-i- am fine: Joy replied

My dear, you will be fine nothing bad will happen to you, okay; says Lady Melissa and Joy nodded

After a while the men walked in and Sir Stephen told everyone to rest and told lady Gloria and Lady Melissa to help Joy settle down and also bring her to his meeting room in an two hours after that he leaves

Sir Stephen went to the Emperor

Michael, William , his wife and son are back in the palace with the young lady but you have to wait till we tell her who we are and who she will be marrying before she is introduced to you, the rest of the family and the council

Alright father but tell me how she is physically

Sir Stephen: she is beautiful that's all I can say
