Chapter 52 Collecting Trash!
Chapter 52 Collecting Trash!
————————
“You are working hard for so long! Let her work while you take rest and nurse back to your health. After all she is the empress!”
Her eyes widened as she noticed that he was not even looking at her but Hazel who was smirking with her hands folded in front of her chest!
How dare she look down at her.
“Rafael! I am the one who is handling the affairs of this palace since your parents were killed.. I mean after their death!” she looked away when she felt his cold stare, it felt as if he would kill her that moment only.. How could she forget! Damn it! It was only because of Hazel!
“Scarlet! I did not like to repeat myself. You may leave now!” The words were more of a threat than a command.
Even Hazel and Natalie felt that change in his eyes and attitude then Scarlet, the woman who had seen him growing up..
Knowing that she had crossed the limit and would not be able to win his favor for now, she bowed her head and left from there rubbing her long heels with full force on the floor.
Once the clinking sound disappeared, the cracked face of Rafael was back to normal too as he turned to stare at Hazel whose eyes were shining like a sly fox.
A triumphant smile on her face like a kid who succeeded in bullying an adult and took it as her biggest achievement.
Unconsciously a smile bloomed on his face and the coldness in his eyes dissipated a lot.
“I never thought that we would meet here!”
“…..” he was talking like they were only acquaintances accidentally bumping into each other at a party!
“Even I have not thought that I will see a new lover by your side, my lord!” Hazel looked at the arrogant girl who was fuming too as if she was the one who was insulted, not Scarlet!
“That.. are you jealous, Hazel! I have already told you that I can discard all of them if you are ready to take their place!” The flirtatious and warm look had returned on his face as he took steps towards her and held her left hand.
Bringing it closer to his face, he kissed for longer seconds and oly let it go when she pulled it back.
“My lord! What are you saying..!” the eyes of the girl widened and her face turned pale.
It had taken a lot of effort by her father for her to reach here. If she would not reach the bed of the lord, then all the hard work would go in vain!
If only this dumb girl had interferd a bit later. She was about to offer her blood as the meal if he would have in private then was about to drop her clothes.. But all the plans would go to the drain because of HAZEL!!!!
“English! Are you illiterate to not understand even that!” she closed her mouth abruptly listening to the irritated remark of the lord.
Even Hazel was at a loss of words as the man did not stop staring at her. His gaze had always been so intense that her heart started to race in her ribcage and it became difficult for her to maintain her balance.
“It had been days since I last saw you. You are looking more beautiful than before.”
“……” it had only been 3 days and she was sure her face did not change even a bit!
“Now that I remember, we have been invited to a soiree by a human! It is closer to your father’s empire!
Would you like to go with me!” family! They wwe just scumbags to send her here to die! If possible, she would send all of them to the prison rather than being amiable with them.
“Oh,. that would have been wonderful, but I apologize I have to spend my whole day here to learn the work!” she replied in an apologetic voice to make the excuse look more natural and her face relaxed when she saw him nodding his head.
“Hmm, that’s good! Then I will ask Cullen to arrange a designer dress for you. Be ready at 5 pom!”
“…….” did he even hear what she had said? She pursued her lips and glared at the man who was looking at her with challenging eyes.
He had done that knowingly as if challenging her to refuse him again!
‘Shameless! Why did he even ask at the first place then!’
The night creature continued to stare at her gloomy face and her moviling lips as if she was cursing her with amusement for a few seconds then took a big dramatic sigh!
“See, I always get so lost in your beauty that I forget to even take meals. Now I know why I felt so much thirst when my eyes fell on you, my fear wife!” the lips that were still muttering profanities for the vampire stopped and parted in disbelief as she took a step back instinctively when the man chuckled.
“I will see you in the evengling love, when I will be satiated enough to not lust over you!” taking a big sigh, he gave her one last look before turning and walking out with leisure steps without even giving one single look at the girl waiting for him all this time in silence.
As if he had forgotten about her presence completely. Natalie could not bear such an insult! She was fuming and her face was looming over with darkness!
She gritted her teeth and glared at the girl who was acting so high and mighty!
“Do you think just by barging in here shamelessly, you will be able to gain the attention of my lord! Ha, how delusional and brazen. Do not forget that he had chosen me over you and I am the only one in his eyes now!!”
Hazel rolled her eyes, who was delusional and brazen here!
“Then go and take him! I am not interested in collecting trash anyways!”
