Chapter 559 - A Lesson for Kit Blue (1/2)
Aleksis also looked stunned. She never knew how Alaric had been doing all this time. As she didn't really follow the news outside, this had been the first time she heard about how Kit was supposed to be engaged to her husband. She turned to Alaric and asked for an explanation.
”Is what she said true?” Aleksis asked in amazement, ”Are you engaged to her?”
Alaric shook his head. ”Ned and her father have an agreement that they will marry their children if they have a son and daughter. She is just trying to find an opportunity to get a powerful man to become her husband. I never gave her the hope she was claiming.”
”Oh ...” Aleksis looked at Kit who was now reduced to tears. ”Poor her ...”
”She doesn't deserve your pity,” Alaric grumbled. He put his arm around Aleksis' waist and pulled her towards the castle. ”Don't give her an inch, she would ask for a mile.”
Seeing how Alaric ignored her completely and was even about to leave, Kit became even more enraged.
”I can't believe a man like you can be so naive! Even though you got married to her ten years ago, that doesn't mean you have to go back to her... Marriage can still be voided. She has forgotten you. Why do you want to go back to a woman like her who stained herself by sleeping with another man? I saw her and her children go on a vacation to Iceland with Nicolae, your own brother. And guess what? They were very affectionate! She doesn't deserve you ... !!!” screamed Kit. ”Why don't you just let her marry your brother and free yourself so you can start anew? She left you before and was preparing to start a new life with Nicolae. Why don't you do the same?!! Her children don't even consider you their father ... They are calling Nicolae their father ... You have no place in their lives!”
She knew the only way to attract Alaric's attention was to say evil and hurtful words. If she couldn't get that man, then she won't just let them be happy. She must at least embarrass them!
Everyone was very surprised by Kit's words and whispers and rumors began to be heard here and there again. They looked at Alaric and Nicolae alternately. They finally realized that the wedding they were attending actually contained many surprises.
Kit's revelation made the guests aware that the wedding today was actually prepared for Aleksis and Nicolae... not Alaric. Gosh ...
Alaric, who had never bothered at all about Kit, was finally baited. He did not care about himself at the slightest. Even if people insult him, he wouldn't flinch even once. But when Kit did that to Aleksis… and she even mentioned their children, he immediately flew in rage.
At first, he had zero intention to announce his children's identities, because, like Caspar, he wanted to protect them until they were adults. But this foolish girl actually mentioned his children... She was really unforgivable!
All of a sudden, the sound of a microphone falling and shards of glass scattering on the small stage where Kit had just been standing reverberated. It was immediately followed by people screaming at the top of their lungs.
Apparently, before Kit could even finish speaking, Alaric had already moved quietly towards Kit and within a few seconds, he was there, grabbing her neck with his right hand while lifting her into the air. His steps were very light so the girl was not able to react at all. ;
The female guests were greatly shaken by the sight whereas the male guests were shocked to see Alaric lifting Kit's body by gripping her neck mercilessly. They could also see that while the girl kept trying her best to escape, her attempts were proving futile.
”I will not forgive anyone who says bad things about Aleksis, or our children,” Alaric said in an icy voice. He turned his gaze around as if giving warning to everyone who attended. His eyes were telling that he also would not hesitate to do the same to them if they tried to copy Kit's actions.
”My daughter...!! Please let go of my daughter!!” screamed Moira Blue. She ran toward Alaric. Using his free hand, he had resisted her so strongly that she got slammed hard onto the ground. Lex hurriedly helped his wife stand up. He immediately approached Ned and asked his childhood friend to order Alaric to set his daughter free.
