Chapter 154: Who Touched My Girl? (2)
Princess Violet was a big part of how the Seventh Queen Consort Jane was able to survive until now
If the princess disappeared, it was clear that she would die within the month or within a year at the most if she were lucky And if it was soetaway, she would be promptly beheaded on the spot
Of course, Queen Consort Jane knew of all these facts She knew of all this, yet she regardless hter would not be condemned to a cruel fate
She asserted Violet once more
“Run away and live your life freely That is my one hope and wish”
Princess Violet choked up as she replied
“Mother, I cannot How could I possibly bring myself to leave you and…”
“I’ll be alone in any case when you’re wed off to another land”
“That’s…”
“And when that happens, I’ll be…”
“Mother…”
Princess Violet welled up with emotion as she watched her mother unable to finish the sentence Before they knew it, thetears as they tightly embraced each other
The Queen Consort co but happiness for you As long as you are happy, dear Violet, then I am at peace no matter what befalls me”
“Ho could I be? Without you, mother, I…”
The truth was that Princess Violet, with all her political ineptitude, had in fact considered it
That was, she had thought about leaving the Principality with all the knights that followed her and rebuilding it all soht Even the thought of beco a socially outcastedcountry she called hohts always stopped at just that: thoughts
And that was because she could not bring herself to turn her back from her mother, the one existence in this world that showered her with love Ironically, as restraining her the most was not the power and authority of her father, but the love of her hter could only embrace each other and weep ceaselessly
In the end, Princess Violet could not bring herself to flee, despite the Seventh Queen Consort’s continuous i
And in time, the one nominated to be her fiancé – if he could be called that – had arrived
“Hoh… you’re much prettier than your likenesses”
“……”
“I’m impressed”
“……”
Princess Violet trembled at the sheer humility of his tone No matter how much scorn she was treated ithin her own nation, and no matter hoeak their country was…
She was still a princess
She did not deserve to hear such disrespectful words that would azed at in the same manner Yet any semblance of courteousness seerel before her blatantly scanned her body up and down as if evaluating a ood
In terms of first impressions, his likeness seereasy, foul-, with narrow eyes and a stick-thin fraantly decorated sas strapped to his hip, his posture and the air he exuded betrayed that it was nothing but a mere ornament If Princess Violet had so much as a butcher’s knife, she would very well be able to toy with him and doth; and in reality, the one with the overwhel Master The Tol March ell-known in the Valence Kingdoreat wealth, and Archduke Lawrence was pro Princess Violet to the on paper and was, in fact, no different than being sold for gold Ward understood his position of power very well and was a despicable enoughin the fact that his opponent was unable to resist and he had full liberty above them
Ward Tol rose fro with a loose tone
“Let usas we can afford You would like that as well, won’t you?”
Of course, she didn’t
Princess Violet instinctively avoided Ward’s hand that came up to touch her cheek as she responded
“I have yet to consent to thissurprise
“Hoh… an unruly princess who still rebels against her father’s wishes Is that what this is?”
“……”“Do you not wish to answer? It seems you have another man in your heart”
While his disposition was that of the scuht
Princess Violet looked at Ward straight in the eye as she answered
“As you say, I, unfortunately, have anotherme and return whence you ca to say, but she could not stand the presence of this man any further and said it as it was
But the issue was…
“Marvelous”
Her honesty only served to fan the flames further
“My interest was only piqued at first when I heard that you were a princess, but your looks are better than I iined – and now on top of that, you already have someone you love to boot? This is the best”
“… Excuse me?”
The man licked his lips as he watched Princess Violet’s confusion with ani forward to this Hoill you react when I deflower you in bed? Will you cry and beg uilt as you call for your beloved? Whichever it is, I’m undoubtedly in for a rather special treat”
“……”
Princess Violet’s face turned red with rage
As she weathered the battlefield and fought against bandits, she had witnessed many a wretched man, but…
‘Someone like this actually exists?’
It was her first encountering such a creep This was a completely different kind of depravity fro an opponent she could cut down in one fell sweep, she shuddered with a level of disgust she felt to her bones
Let alone respect, Princess Violet had never met such a total pervert as the man before her, a sociopathic sadist who could not so ap in their real strength, she was physically revolted and offended
Ward formed an insidious s forward to this, very much so The moment you really become mine, that is”
With that, Ward turned and departed Princess Violet’s royal quarters Even after he disappeared froht, Violet took a moment to process what she had just experienced
‘Do I really have tolike that?’
She merely hoped that this was all just a bad drea face-to-face with Princess Violet, Ward Tol hastened the wedding even age once they had returned to the Valence Kingdoe their wedding in the Florence Principality
To others, it may have appeared as respect for the bride and her faoosebuarded in the steady preparation of the wedding, and all she received was aday
To prepare for all anomalies, Ward sent his own h they were said to be attached to aid in preparing the bride, their true purpose was surveillance
In thatarrived
“Finally, that eyesore of a toht”
“Indeed She truly was a disgrace to the royal family”
“Maybe it’s because of her lowborn mother’s blood, but I never wanted her to be associated with me as a fellow royal”
