Peace Offering To The Cursed Prince
Chapter 335
There are only two possibilities, either the prince deliberately spread the news of his disappearance or someone is trying to lure you out of the palace. Either way, it is best to remain seated where you are. The prince cares about you and if it''s got too dangerous his men should be available to save you," Eva said. Eva was aware that some man named Dark was trying to kidnap the princess. This was the same man that has sent her to the prince''s bed. After all this incident how could she not know that someone was after the princess to get to the prince?
She already notice that the prince cared for her so she was certain that he will make plans to keep her safe.
"You are right, if things were so bad, One would have come to tell me," princess Ellen realized that Eva actually made a lot of sense but she could not help but wonder why she knew so much about the prince.
''Was she so close to him?'' Forget it, she just save me from falling into a trap,'' Princess Ellen decided to find out why the prince invited her later when she saw him instead of jumping to conclusions.
Jane and Princess Ema did not believe a word from Eva but they kept their mouths shut since they did not want to argue with a commoner like her.
Lawrence and his family believe her because they thought she was close to Jeffery, after all, the previous day Jeffery already told them that she was a friend. Richard and Danny on the other hand just belived her because princess Ellen did.
It took another half an hour before the door was pulled open. This time it was Jeffery and One that came inside.
"Jeffery," lady Bridget was so happy to see that her son was safe. She has been so anxious when the guard brought the news about the prince''s disappearance that she did not dare to say a word.
"Mother, why are you looking so worried," Jeffery was surprised he did not expect to meet them in such a state.
"We heard that the crown prince was missing so we were a bit scared," lady Bridget replied. As she spoke she used her eyes to check Jeffery from head to toe to see if he was hurt somewhere. She took a deep breath in relief when she saw that he was fine.
"Your highness, it is time," Jeffery said looking at the princess. He knew that there was no time to explain what happened to them. It had taken him a bit of effort to fight the people causing trouble on his way to quarter. He knew they could not keep the lords and ladies waiting.
Who knows if they would pressure the prince to choose a new queen. Princess Ellen nodded her head and got up to her feet. Just like that everyone else followed.
They would not have thought that as soon as Jeffery and One pulled open the door of the throne room they will meet the prince in the middle of selecting a new queen.
Prince Sebastian looked towards the door just like everyone else did as soon as the door was opened. Seeing that it was Jeffery standing at the front of the door, he took in a deep breath of relief.
He knew that he will have to get crowned with his queen so after they left the cave, Jeffery had gone to pick up princess Ellen why he went to the palace.
The lords and noble started murmuring among themselves when they saw princess Ellen walking behind. Not many of these lords knew what she looked like but seeing how she was dressed and the fact that she was with Jeffery and a group of people who were not from Avalo, they could guess she was the princess from Bozoa.
Those whose daughters have returned to their seats started praising her. "The princess from Bozoa is so beautiful. No wonder the prince''s heart is set on her," one lady told her friend.
"That right, look at all does maiden standing before the prince if compared to the prince, they look so average," her friend replied.
Even lady Susan was very pleased watching princess Ellen walk over to the throne. " She is the perfect match for the prince," lady Susan said. Those around her were surprised. Lady Susan was known to be someone who spoke her mind. Her husband was a respected general. She did not care if she died for saying what she believes to be true.
"What do you mean lady Susan, the fact that she is beautiful does not mean that the throne should be handed to her. Who knows if she jas any talent," the lady closed to her disagreed.
"What do you mean by having no talent? Do not say that, I heard that back in Samor a few months ago she had saved the prince''s life," A General''s wife spoke up.
"Do not be foolish, if she is good with herbs and saving lives do you think Bozoa will marry her over to Avalo," the woman who spoke against Ellen replied.
"Well, the source of my information is trusted," the General wife replied.
"Of course, I belive you, who does not know that she (the woman talking against Ellen) is only saying all this because the chance for her daughter to become the Queen has been ruined by the princess Arrival," another General''s wife joined the conversation.
"What chance? I doubt the prince was planning to pick any of these ladies. If you ask me he was only wasting time for the Princess to arrive," lady Susan''s husband who is a general spoke up.
He has had the opportunity to work with prince Sebastian and he knew it was not his style to be so patient. He already thought that something was wrong when the prince agreed to pick a new wife so easily.
Now that the princesd Arrived with Jeffery, it made a lot of sense. Who is the crown prince of Avalo? He was a man who could not even be forced by the king when he was just a boy.
When the ladies heard the General''s words, they all came to a realization. The prince indeed was not planning to choose a new queen. He was just making a fool out of them.
The person who was most annoyed about this outcome was lady Carrero. She was someone who knew how to take advantage of the situation. As soon as the news about the conflict and prince Sebastian''s disappearance reached her ears, she had to look for a guard who could bring the message to the princess and lure her out of the palace, she even asked the guard to force her out if she did not take the bait.
Unfortunately for her, the prince had the princess surrounded by guards and her family was also present.. These two factors made it impossible for her to be forced out.
