Chapter 88 - Revelation (2/2)

Looking at the face of her daughter, surely, this beauty is worth thousands of war yet she, Esmeralda will never allow one to happen.

"Anna, you may come out now" Astrid commanded.

Celestia's eyes grew wide as the familiar shadow began to move from behind the wide door.

A-Anna? As in her maidservant before?

Truly, it was her friend from before, after causing her stepmother, Marie, to have a miscarriage, she is nowhere to be found. And now, she's here, in an assassin's clothing, very different from the maid she thought she knew.

"Your highness" she bowed.

"Where are they?" Astrid inquired.

"The king and queen of Thusha are now under our care, they are with your children"

Celestia gasped and broke free from Esmeralda.

Her father and stepmother are here?!

The kingdom of Thusha has fallen prey.

Why did she not think of this before? If this cure, removes love in one's system, Thusha will be the first enemy of the biggest empire.

However, one fact completely caught Celestia's mind.

"Your children?" Celestia asked, her mind is in disarray. Astrid never had a child, much less, children.

Astrid smiled sweetly.

"Yes, mine. Aiden and Eden" she replied, stating a fabricated lie smoothly.

"What did you say?!" Celestia is now seething in anger.

First, Astrid took Logan away from her.

Second, she trampled on their Kingdom.

Third, she kidnapped her children.

In Celestia's mind, Astrid Vega is already dead. Her blood boils as everything fits together.

"You are with her" Celestia said not in a questioning manner but more of stating an obvious answer. She looks at Esmeralda, then to Anna.

THEY ARE ALL WITH ASTRID.

And ever since before...this day has been planned. From how Anna approached her when they were still little, up to now.

It was all planned.

How sad for Celestia to loathe her stepmother before when the true wicked soul is her true mother, Esmeralda Wresea.
