Lahat ng Kabanata ng Crown of an Empress: Kabanata 11 - Kabanata 20

“Diane told me what happened in the brothel last night,” Helen said as she was drinking tea while Emery was doing the laundry. “It would be great if the emperor lets you off the hook that easily but I doubt he’d do that. So you should brace yourself since even I cannot do anything to stop him from whatever he wants to do.” “Is he really that scary, Helen?” Emery asked.  All she heard about the emperor was that he was a man who brings terror when they least expect it. Others would even call him a devil in the guise of an angel because of his deceiving looks, which was understandable since Emery also thought that he was just one of those handsome yet idiotic guys when she first laid eyes on him. Helen, on the other hand, let out a

On Emery’s first day at work in the Euthoria mansion, she woke up as early as five in the morning. After washing up, she left her room and went to the kitchen, where the other maidservants were already preparing breakfast."You’re Sapphire, right? The emperor’s new attendant?" one of them asked.Emery nodded, and a few seconds later, she was handed a tray of freshly brewed tea.    "Make sure to knock three times before entering His Imperial Highness’ room. And if you find him still sleeping, wait for him to wake up or else he will be mad as hell. If the tea grows cold before he wakes up, come back here and we will give you a new set."

“What do you mean I am hiding something?” Emery asked rather calmly, despite worrying if she had just busted herself. The emperor then flashed her a smile and replied, “By any chance, is your husband hurting you?” Emery’s serious expression changed into a dopey one because of the sudden change of topic. And not to mention, he was talking about someone who does not really exist. Anyhow, she was relieved that the emperor was not referring to her secret. “How did this become about my husband?” “Well, it seems like you are the one who is enduring a lot, Sapphire. Why don’t you just divorce your husband and devote yourself to me as my first concubine?” If that h

Leaning back on his seat and resting his chin on the back of his hand, Emperor Claus looked at Castor with a grim expression.“A spy? How did you come up with that idea?” he asked the knight.“As I told you before, the king of the Silex Kingdom could possibly be suspecting us as the mastermind of the ongoing massacre of their soldiers. Sapphire’s appearance here at this time is just too suspicious to call it a simple coincidence. And not to mention, she said a while ago that she came from that kingdom.’’The emperor thought for a while and was reminded of the times he spent with his new attendant. So far, he noticed nothing out of the ordinary with her but Castor also had a point so he did not want to dismiss his speculation just yet.“Since this is still not proven, continue monitoring her and digging into her background. There is still a possibility that she is not a spy because no spy would reveal even one trut

Assured that the letter would be delivered to Raphael, Emery went back to the Euthoria mansion where she saw the carriage already at the entrance. The emperor also came into sight and when she decided to approach him, she came to a halt upon seeing a woman speaking with him. It was someone she never saw before. Standing on the side, she overheard their conversation.“King Lawson will be staying here for a week so prepare the Eldford Hall for his stay. My daily scheduled meal with Serena will be on hold within that week since she will transfer here for the meantime. Formal meetings will be done for four days. Keep the first day only for formal introductions. The last day would be a ball for every noble,” Emperor Claus said before handing her the scroll, containing the detailed plans for the king’s visit.“I will make the necessary preparations within the palace, Your Imperial Highness. I will also make sure to update you with the progress.”As of the moment, Emery could not sense anyth
