Peace Offering To The Cursed Prince
Chapter 347
"What is that noise," Sebastian got up from his chair to find out what was going on. The remaining people in the room followed behind. Outside the door, Jane and Princess Ema we''re arguing with two maids.
"I do not care if she is still sleeping wake her up," princess Ema said.
"I am sorry, we can not do that, his Majesty asked that Queen should not be distributed," Rosa said.
Hearing the word Quee made princess Ema very angry. If she had known marrying the crown prince of Avalo a few months back will bring this much benefit then she would have happily jumped to it.
This time she and her mother had miss calculate. They had actually given Ellen treasure why they held on to the stone.
"So my brother has been missing for over a day, how can she still sleep peacefully. Or did she plan all this to give ger brother a smooth take over of the throne?" Princess Ena spoke more loudly.
The palace was quite big so Ellen could not hear all the noise. "What are you saying, her highness is not like your mother who plays dirty tricks to get what she wants. Prince Richard is more than capable of dealing with your brother," Rosa did not bother to give Princess Ema a face. Since Ema dared to accuse Ellen of something so evil.
"How dare you talk to me like this," as Ema spoke she raised her hand to slap her but Rosa smartly moved outside.
"What? Why are you angry? If your mother dares to do it we can not talk about it?" Rosa raised her brows but move away from the princess because she knew that even if she (Princess Ema) hit her nothing will be done about it.
"You..." Princess Ema was so angry that her face turned red.
"What? Is it not because you and your mother do not have morals that you think everyone is like you," Rosa said. She had always wanted to vent her anger but she never got any chance.
Back then when she was a young lady she had been employed by the Queen. (King George''s) mother to be a maid to Queen Agatha.
After Queen Agatha''s death, she had watched how lady Regina treated Ellen. As a maid, there was nothing she could do but watch.
"My mother has done nothing wrong, even if Ellen does not like her she did not hurt her. She only married the king to fulfill the last wish of her friend," Princess Ema argued. Although she did not need to give a maid like Rosa any explanation but her mother has become a sour spot for her. So she felt the need to defend her.
Rosa laugh mockery when she heard princess Ema''s defense. "Only a fool will believe that. Is it not because she has always been converting the king that she sold out her best friend''s child to the second prince back then," Rosa said. She was already carried away that she spoke without thinking.
She could not just stand the fact that princess Ema dared to accuse Ellen when her mother has such a two-faced personality.
"What did you say?" Richard was the first to react. Inside the dining hall, they could not hear any of the conversations but just now they happen to walk out and hear Rosa''s words.
Rosa felt like a cold bottle of water has been poured on her. Meanwhile, princess Ema was so angry that she was losing her mind.
"How dare you tell such lies," princess Ema pointed a finger at Rosa who was suddenly acting mute.
Jane on the other hand felt helpless, she regretted her action of coming over with Ema. Jane was honestly worried about prince Williams since no one has seen him since he left the palace the previous day.
Even after breakfast that morning, he still did not return, so Jane suggested meeting Ellen to help them find Princess William. Getting to the palace Rosa had welcomed them politely and told them of the king''s instructions. Jane could never have guessed that princesd Ema will throw a tantrum in such a place.
No matter what, they were not in Bozoa and so they could not other Ellen around even if this is what princess Ema is used to.
"Your Majesty, " princess Ema bowed when she notice that Sebastian is present. Looking at his handsome face, prince Ema was infatuated. ''How could Ellen be married to such a man?'' Princess Ema could not bring herself to take it.
"Why so loud?" Sebastian asked. He hated noise the most. When princess Ellen heard him, she acted like a victim and began to cry.
"My poor mother is been slandered by this maid, how can I take it? Was it a crime that she accepted her friend''s last wish," As Ema cried her face looked delicate, it was unfortunate, that the king was not the type to be moved by such a show of weakness.
"What happened?" The king repeated his question even if he hated repeating himself.
"Your Majesty, " Jane bowed and decided to explain what happened seeing that princess Ema was carried away with her emotion.
"She should be punished, how dare she slander my mother," princess Ema said after Jane was done explaining the situation.
"Saying the truth is not slander, moreover, if you did not dare to insult and accuse the Queen I will not have disrespected you," Rosa said in a calm voice.
Rosa was scared at this moment, no matter what it was not in her place to scold the princess. And Jane had smartly downplayed the princess attitude towards the Queen. Rosa was not sure if the king will listen to her words, Fortunately, for her, the king was not rational when it comes to his wife.
"She dares to insult the queen of Avalo in her palace?" Sebastian asked. He knew that this young lady and her mother had put hands together to bully his sunshine in the past. He never did anything to both of them because he believes that their action had led him to his sunshine but that did not mean he was going to watch them behave as they please after their marriage.
"Your highness it is a misunderstanding," Jane immediately reacts seeing that the king sounds angry.
"Princess Ema is just worried about her brother. After leaving the palace yesterday he had not returned and given the fact that they were in a conflict, she become more worried," Jane tried her best to smooth out things.
Princess Ema was angry at the direction thing we were headed but she shurt her mouth. She knew that talking more will only make the king hate her. What she did not understand was how a man like Sebastian will treate Ellen so well.
''Could it be because she was the first woman in his life?'' Princess Ema wondered.
