Chapter 83 Unhappy ones (1/2)

Veronica's room was in such a mess. Many things are broken and lying on the floor.

”NO!” Veronica was shouting hysterically.

”Sister, please calm down.” Elizabeth said.

”How do you think will I calm down?” Veronica said. ”Knowing that Alicia snatched what was meant to be mine!”

”Veronica!” Their mother came in Veronica's room with anger. ”Is that how a princess should be acting?”

Veronica's cries turned into sobs. ”B-but, mother.”

”Come here.” The queen opened her arms for an embrace. Veronica willingly came into her arms.

”Mother, I should have been prince Regaleon's wife. I should have been the crown princess.” Veronica said between sobs.

”Hush now Veronica.” The queen said. ”Do you think I would let that bastard to get what is rightfully yours.”

”What do you mean mother?” Elizabeth asked.

”I have a plan that will make prince Regaleon won't want to marry her.” The queen said wickedly.

”What is it mother?” Veronica has stopped crying.

”What if the prince learns that Alicia is not a virgin anymore?” The queen said with a wicked smile.

”You mean....” Veronica's eyes opened wide and listened intently to her mother.

The queen reached from her pocket and took a vial.

”What is that mother?” Elizabeth asked.

”This is very potent aphrodisiac.” The queen said. ”Just a few drops from this vial and they will be craving the touch of the opposite sex intensely.”

Veronica's face brightened in excitement.

”Three days from now there will be a royal ball that will announce the official engagement of prince Regaleon and Alicia in the noble society.” The queen said. ”There we will set the stage of her downfall.”

”Yes mother. That will be her payment for trying to steal what is rightfully mine.” Veronica said. ”She will become the laughing stock of the noble society and to the public as well.”

”I will leave it to you to find the person that will give her downfall.” The queen said.

”Don't worry mother. I will make sure to find a lowly commoner that would further disgrace her.” Veronica was grinning wickedly.

”Do not worry my daughters. I will make sure to give you the best there is. I won't let that bastard get what is rightfully yours.” The queen said.

”Thank you mother.” Veronica was now beaming with happiness.
