Chapter 418 – ?Have A Drink 2
Was that it?
She knew that he was a vampire and Rafael held complete authority over vampires who were loyal beings.
But if that was the case, why did he bring the reports to her but not Rafael.
She started at the bottle of wine. It was a vintage one but..
“If you do not want to, I can leave. I did not want to trouble you at the first place but was in an illusion that we were friends.” he said in a sweet voice as he tried to hide his disappointment but in reality he wanted to feel pressured and guilty.
“That is not it. But I am not drinking alcohol these days. Since I am taking medicine to recover after the hunt.” she said in a soft voice. “If you want to celebrate my success with me, shall I order some tea for us?” tea? But he had already mixed..
He did not want to get in on the suspicion, so he had mixed the liquid the witch had given him in the wine.
He was sure that Hazel would be suspicious of him. Then to curb her doubts, he would call Rafael and drink with them. That way he would be able to give the liquid to both of them at once.
But with this..
“If you are suspicious of me, then i can call lord Rafael to accompany us.” he tried to azure but Hazel only shook her head.
“How could that be.. I trust all the vampires, especially the one working in the council. You are the one who made my dream come true.” she smiled and clapped her hands as she called the maids to serve them some snacks with warm tea and blood for him.
And then passed him a smile as if asking ‘look how considerate i am!’ but it only infuriated him further!
This fool! She was only infuriated by her actions but he could only smile and nod.
If she doubted him and complained to Rafael then it would be difficult for him to serve him the drink too.
He endured with a smile on his face when the mads brought scones and macron!
Really! Cakes for a vampire? What were they even thinking?
He picked up the glass of blood and drank all in a gulp.
If he would not feed them liquid then the pain was going to start again and he did not want to suffer with it.
“About the plans.. You would not mind if I discuss a few points with you while we are celebrating right?” she asked as she flipped the pages of the file.
He shook his head as he was sure that was nothing she could find flaw with. And if she did, he would use the chance to meet Rafael.
Since he had checked all the plans personally, it might be a good chance to create a rift between the couple.

“The plans here.. It Was too extravagant but everything just looked perfect. I do not have the heart to change anything but I want to look at the budget. You said you have worked hard on them, right? Can you tell me the cost of decoration and what kind of flowers you are going to use?” she pointed at the garden they could see from the window,
“If possible, can we use our own flowers? It would deduct the cost by a lot. And…” the vampire’s jaws ticked.
She was going to be the empress yet she was talking about saving money all this while. As expected from a confined princess, she had no idea of what was happening around her in the world.
Tsk! A look of disdain filled his face and for a second he forgot to conceal his true thoughts as he looked at her as if she was a fool who did not know when to stop.
Hazel smiled as her eyes glinted with a darker shade. So, she was right!
“That was all for now. I hope it is not much of a problem?” no matter how foolish she was! She did have a perfect face that he did not feel bad sitting there.
Her smile did increase the heartbeat even of him who had been with a good amount of women.
Albert shook his head.
“It is my honor to help the lady. About the wine..” he held the bottle in his hands, “since the lady could not drink it, i shall take this for my lover. She would be happy to get a sip of vintage wine.” he stood up taking the bottle of wine with him when she nodded her head.
As he bowed his head and left, the eyes of Hazel turned cold.
Albert walked out with a frown on his face.
“It is fine. She had given it to Rafael only. Hazel was just a bonus. What could a fool like her do if Rafael would not be there to support her.” he muttered under his breath as he walked forward with a frown on his face.
It only needed him to walk a few more steps when he bumped into Rafael in the middle of his way.
“What are you doing here? I thought you went back?” asked Rafael with a tilt of his head.
The only room occupied in this floor belongs to Hazel.
And the thought that he was with her when she was sleeping did not sit well with him.
His eyes turned frostier.
“Ah.. I was looking for you.“ Albert said Albert adjusting the look on his face. It was not Hazel so he could not let his guards down.
“For me?” Rafael raised a brow but Albert nodded readily.
“Yes, i wanted to have a drink with you since i got a vintage wine that you like.” he showed Rafael the bottle with a flattering smile, “i know that i have troubled you a lot these days. So before the coronation, I wanted to celebrate with you.”
