บททั้งหมดของ The King's Rejected Lady: บทที่ 21 - บทที่ 30

SERVANTS AND handmaidens were buzzing since the crack of dawn. The chilly breeze of winter did not deter the busy people in the Rozenreff estate. Sabina was in a foul mood since she woke up. Shena's sweet nothings could not quench her temper. Today was the blasted day that the bitch Victoria was born. It was the seventeenth birthday of that bitch and even her handmaidens were excited saved for Shena.How I wish she was never born by that pathetic Duchess. I should have been the only heir of the Rozernreff Dukedom, but the blasted fate made that bitch! Ugh! And that sore loser Mia had to get caught! Good thing that someone from the prison cell chopped her tongue off or else."Have some chamomile tea, Lady Sabina." Shena served her but everything around her was irritating Sabina so she flipped the teacups before her, spilling everything to the floor.Not feeling any remorse, Sabina just glared at Shena. "You are annoying me, Shena. Did I tell you to talk?""Forgive me, Lady Sabina!" She

"Blessings to the Empire's moon, Queen Aurina Eckrett." Tori curtsied in front of the queen.Lady M excused herself and left Tori alone in front of the queen, who was comfortably sitting. Tori thought she would see Prince Corean. "Cory is not here. He told me to get to know you myself. Take a seat.""Thank you, Your Majesty."Tori was just suppressing her sly smile. Gone was the façade of the queen in front of everybody else. The queen sitting before Tori was the real deal."I don't know how you convinced my son, but your actions are ruining my plans." Queen Aurina told Tori in a no-nonsense tone. Her golden eyes were sharp and calculating. Now I know where Prince Corean gets that look."Your plans for what, Your Majesty? Your plan to keep Prince Corean alive?" Tori took the tea that was served readily in front of her and she sipped it calmly."And what's wrong with my plan to keep my son away from this Empire's bloody politics?"Red eyes met her golden ones, "Then, do you plan to sit

"A-AHM, THIS WAY Lady Victoria." Poor Tessa was very nervous around her so Tori stopped prodding and she just listened as the commoner guide talked about the rules in the dormitory and the school. "Noble students have a distinct set of rules with the common folks like me. The first rule, the ladies can't sleep together with the lords to uphold the honor and dignity of their noble houses. The second rule, the ladies can have their tea party inside the dormitory since there is an available greenhouse donated by the Duchess of Castaña Duchy. The third rule, classes will start at ten in the morning and will end at three in the afternoon. Fourth rule, the noble's curfew will be at exactly midnight, the same as the commoners. And last, there will be no fight allowed as long as you wear your robes, meaning no fights must happen inside Trifecta Academy." Different sets of rules, huh? I wonder who the advantageous one is. I know how simple-minded nobles are, as long as their honor will be at

NOT PREPARED for this kind of situation, Tori did the first thing that came up to her mind. Pulling him closer, which shocked Corean, she locked her arms around his body as if she was hugging him back. But what Tori was aiming for was the second prince's open neck."What a naughty thing to do, your highness," Tori whispered before pressing his pressure point, rendering him unconscious in an instant. A sudden thud echoed in his room and afterward, a knock resounded."Your highness?" Tori ignored the royal knight's voice. She was concentrating on transferring Prince Corean's sleeping form to his bed, though it would take her time to do so.The knight would not dare to open Prince Corean's chamber, especially since he was the one who brought her there. She would let him think what he wanted, she would just tell Rowan to take care of him as he sees fit for her.While looking down at the second prince's sleeping form on his bed, Tori could not help but took her sweet time gazing down at hi

THE LOOMING look of the members of the aristocratic faction did not hold a candle compared to Crown Prince Lei Yin's mocking stare. Tori did not know if she would feel grateful to him or what. Sipping the tea that she asked, Tori was waiting for Prince Corean's arrival together with Lady M. While doing so, the thick tension enveloped her when the old geezers had a lot to say to her.Perhaps the news about the Jewel Eyes of Rhea and Queen Aurina being my sponsor has reached them already. Oh, I bet it did."A lovely day, isn't it?" Tori broke the silence together with the crashing of the thunder and the sudden poor of heavy rain outside the windowpanes.Lord Wolfgang answered her stoically. "Why does the heir apparent of the Rozenreff Duchy playing tea party here when your daddy dearest is plotting against Lord Tofera?"So they already figured it out? Or the Duke does not have any reason to hide it just to show dominance? So daddy dearest is playing the alpha, huh?Glancing at Lord Tofe
