Chapter 493 - Thorn (1/2)
Princess Lethia was the only one who knew that King John was not serious about this attack. Despite the flashy entrance of the Stone Kingdom men and threatening the villagers, they have not done anything. The main reason was this was a plan he proposed to her. At first she was worried that King John was only trying to take advantage of her but Lethia quickly changed her mind. Even if that man uses her, she could use this situation.
I already have everything planned. Soon I would come up with a solution and save everyone.
The recent cases with the nobles suicides ended up giving her a bad name. While Lethia managed to erase the evidence, she could not erase the fact that people saw her with those people before. There were many eye witnesses that she could not silence.
”If your sister is that beautiful, I would like to meet her.”
Lethias gaze dimmed when she heard those words. Of course he would say that. All men are the same type, at the end of the day they do not use their head to think but the rest of their body instead.
Lethia brushed her fingers across his lips. ”We can meet her later.”
......…
The last person Lethia thought would arrive was Zepher.
Though mother and brother have pardoned him...Is it not strange to attend a gathering of the man who supposedly committed treason? Lethia watched as many people looked at him with a curious gaze. She knew what they were thinking. How could he have the nerve to come here?
”It is an honor to attend your gathering my lady.” Zepher bent down and kissed her hand through the leather gloves.
Lethia felt her heart skip a beat at his actions.
At the end of the day, it seems like she still likes this person. Lethia thought she got rid of her childish feelings for him.
”Is Lyn here?”
At that comment she dug her nails into her palms but she calmly replied. ”My sister is taking a stroll outside with Prince Rhys.”
Lethia personally made sure to keep an eye on her sister today. This was the dukes party, many influential figures came here. She could not allow her sister to meet with anybody important or build up connections. Thankfully it seems like Prince Rhys will keep her occupied for the rest of the time.
But just as she said that the doors opened and in came two people. It was that wretched woman and the guy destroying all her plans. She noticed his hand around her waist and how he was murmuring affectionate words in her sister's ear. Lethia scoffed at the sight. Are these two stupid?
She attended this party as Prince Allen's fiance, acting all affectionate with her boy toy in front of everybody is disgraceful. It is insulting to Prince Allen and his relatives. Lethia watched as a disapproving look appeared on the Wind Kingdom Prince relatives.
It seems like she does not have to do much to destroy Lyn these days, the girl is practically walking into the trap she set for her.
”Lyn, Prince Rhys.” Zepher called out.
”Ah, brother Zepher.”
Lethia noticed people glancing over curiously. Of course, they would be curious. Everybody knows that Zepher likes Lyn since he even introduced her as his wife/future wife before.
These nobles have nothing better to do it seems.
Zepher lips curved to a smile. ”It seems you two are getting along better since I last saw you.”
