Everything started with Adele sending that picture in the group by accident. It was just sothing she took to tease Iblis later, while her and Samuel were doing it in the morning. They enjoyed a lot but during that ti, Iblis completely lost herself and acted completely different from her 'ladylike' persona.
The shot was taken from the side, where one could see everyone's faces even Adele who was smiling at the cara while they were doing it in the back. This was the reason why the group was going crazy!
It's not like they didn't know, two of them went to visit him at the estate. It was the fact that they were rubbing it on their faces! Especially Paige and Maia who was jealous to the point of just flying over there but there was a problem.
It was the final test week before the winter break ca around. Even if they wanted to, their families would flip out if they found that they ditched their exams. It's not like they could give a proper reason or could evade their security detail without alerting their parents unless one was talking about Sybilla, she was a master when it ca to running away!
The next best thing they could co up with was planting their own spy! And what better way to do it was employ Hannah to do it! With her holidays starting early, she was in London already. Her best friend, Kiko was also returning to Japan which ant she had plenty of ti to spare.
They imdiately called her but didn't tell her any details. Her task was the disrupt Samuel's life by visiting him for few days. With her being in the house, they knew Samuel wouldn't dare to actually scar her sister for life!
Hannah liked the idea because she hadn't been spending much ti with him because of his busy schedule. She hoped to visit him before Christmas but with them calling her out of the blue, she decided to take Kiko with her before she took the plane back ho.
Hannah didn't know why they insisted on her staying with him but she didn't really care. But she also felt so tension in their voice which made her aware there was sothing going on behind the scenes.
With everything set, she imdiately called Arthur to ask where Samuel was. He was always aware about his location but this ti he only knew that he went out shopping in the city. She took Kiko and went looking around that when she saw the movie posters and knew about the London Premier.
It didn't take her long to connect the dots and go to the only Armani store in Central London. She knew Samuel was contracted with them as she and everyone else saw his explosive press conference that generated a lot of buzz because of his controversial speech.
Kiko wasn't optimistic of finding him when they first entered the store. Unlike most of the tis, if he was shopping the manager would close off the store but there were a lot of people already browsing inside.
That's when they noticed one section of the store was closed off and the rest happened on it's own. Kiko was actually worried when Hannah started verbal battle with the staffs. Especially seeing more people starting to notice them.
She didn't know how the Imperial family would react if soone recognized her. Samuel didn't know about it but sothing had been going on in Japan. It's probably because his focus was on Europe at the mont.
When she finally saw the his face, she began to calm down. She knew everything would be fine now because she had complete trust in him.

" Wait! Let them through." Samuel yelled out making everyone look at him. The manager imdiately gave way and Hannah rushed and tightly hugged her brother. Kiko also walked over but maintained a steady pace, she couldn't act out in public.
" I am sorry, sir. I didn't know-" The manager realized that they knew each other. She imdiately bowed down to apologize but Samuel tapped her shoulders.
" It's fine, you were only doing your job." He did heard the later part of their conversation and knew she was trying to be as respectable as she could but it was Hannah who kept pressing her.
" Hannah you should also apologize to her and stop hanging with Adele! You are becoming more like her, I can't believe such a sweet kid turned into such a brat under her influence." Hearing him call her brat, she showed so remorse and the situation finally cald down when they went inside.
" Sir, do you need to bring sothing..."
" No we are fine. Right, can you also deliver couple of matching ties with the outfit?"
" Of course, I will leave you guys to it then." The manager promptly cleared the room taking her staff with them.
" Grandpa John! You are here too? I heard you retired?"
" Haha, what can I say? It's in my blood. I was only taking young master around for today."
" Mr. John, it's great to see you again."
" My pleasure your highness."
John had been around a long ti and already was familiar with most of family guest but he was still respectable toward Kiko because they didn't have much prior interactions and knowing that she was an actual princess, he needed to show her courtesy because it was matter of family's image.
" What are you guys doing here? This is not your usual store right?" Armani might be trending in n's clothing but there were better shops for won in the city. Even though the quality was the sa, Armani's stuffs were very expensive.
" Well, we were in the neighbourhood so we thought we could catch up. It's been a while since we spend so quality ti together." She threw the hook first.
" How did you even know I was here? Are you secretly following or sothing?"
" I asked Grandpa Arthur. He told ."
" But I only told him-" Samuel
" Stop asking stupid question! I brought Kiko here because she is leaving tomorrow! If you are done here, take us around town." She cut him off before he could suspect sothing.
" Alright fine. How do you even handle her?" He turned toward Kiko and asked.
" Trust you don't want to know."
Samuel shrugged and asked John to bring out the car. They talked for few more minutes before scouting if the coast was clear. Maybe an actual fan would co out and surprise him but that didn't happen.
After getting into car, they started talking again.
" How is school going? You guys in first year right?"
" It's going good." She turned away while saying it. Samuel thought it was best not to sour the mood by asking her more about studies.
" What about you your highness?" He asked in fluent Japanese with a teasing smile.
" Samuel-sama! I told you not to address like this." Kiko retorted getting embarrassed.
" Only when you stop calling with a 'sama'." He chuckled looking at her reaction.
" Don't tease my friend!"
" Fine, fine. Where are we going by the way?"
" I am driving around in circles since no one told ." John said from the front.
" Where do you guys wanna go?"
" Ho! I already asked my mother for permission to stay with you for few days!" She threw line next.
" Fine, everyone will be happy to hear that. I will ask Arthur to clean up your usual room."
" No! I want to stay with you. I heard you moved into a new house."
" But it's out in the woods? There is nothing to see there." As she thought, Samuel didn't want her to stay with her.
" But-"
" It's not even finished yet. You will have much more easier ti staying with others. There is even a ranch that closer to the main mansion, don't you like horses?" He tried his best to distract her but she was after all on a mission!
" Co on big brother! I want to stay with you! Just for few days, please." She brought out her ultimate weapon, her incredibly cute puppy stare along with calling him big brother like she used to in the past.
" I already told you last ti that it will not work again!"
" Do you have any reservation why we can't stay there?" Kiko decided to intervene. She promised that she would help her friend.
" Not, it's not like, I an, there are not enough functioning rooms yet. With Elise running around the house too, I don't want another one in there. Beside no one stays there most of the ti." he tried his best to co up with in an excuse.
" It's fine, we can bunk together. Grandpa let's go!"
Why was she so adamant about it? Samuel couldn't figure it out. He also didn't have any more excuses left which ant he had to change her mind before they reach the family estate.
