Rosie's Games

Chapter 299: Ignorant Rosie

Chapter 299: Ignorant Rosie

"I Well that is not what I meant," Ena said. She pursed her lips and tried to hide the disgust in her eyes. She did not know if the woman was trying to pretend like she was a stupid idiot around her. However, Ena had the ability to use electricity in gentle waves and send it to whoever she was talking to, this would then influence them into telling her the truth.

She had been using her ability around this woman and yet, the dumb act did not change.

"I wanted to say that she well I heard that you wanted to fight on the walls, instead of managing the Duchy?"

"Did my husband complain about this matter to Your Blessedness?"

"No. That did not happen."

"This was something that my husband decided. I do not see any reason why I must say no to his arrangements. Whatever my husband says is right," Rosalind beamed. "Wives should always follow their husbands. We should serve them with all our bodies and heart and love them and give them children. That is something that I learned while reading the teachings of the Goddess."

"Oh Well, that is indeed right. The Goddess is someone that would want you to be kind to everyone. Most especially to the one that you love."

"Thank you. Thank you so much I"

"Please stop crying. Why not enjoy the pastries that we prepared for you?"

"Pastries?" Rosalind looked at the beautifully decorated desserts. "Did my husband mention my love for sweet food?"

"Of course," Ena looked at the servant and signaled her to start serving her pastries to keep her quiet. She had never met someone so annoying!

Ena intended this meeting to be very productive. She wanted to meet Rosie to talk to her about being the Duke's wife. She wanted to get the woman by her side. First, it was her intention to give other women to the Duke to make Rosie jealous.

After all, she can easily influence someone like that.

Rosie was a woman from the south, so Ena was confident that she was not used to men having their own harem of women. So, Ena intended to use this to her advantage and try to give Rosie some advice about being a woman.

She wanted to make Rosie think that they were allies.

After that, she wanted to increase this meeting until her Blessing worked on Rosie, even if they were so far apart. Rosie's loyalty will be hers.

Who would have thought that the woman that the Duke chose was nothing but a simpleton? She never thought that the man who easily killed five women the other night could be something like this!

Did the Duke choose her because she was stupid?

That must be the reason why the Duke chose to marry this woman!

In the past, Ena and the rest schemed and tried to send many women to marry the Duke. They sent the most beautiful, the smartest, the wisest, the ones with the best voice, the ones who could dance the best and write poems, even women who could manage businesses and the military.

They also sent someone who knew swordsmanship and martial arts.

However, none of them survived.

They died because of various accidents. There was no proof that it was the Duke, but the coincidence was far too much.

So, it seemed that the Duke did not want to marry those women because he wanted someone like this? The current situation completely changed her perspective. The Duke must have wanted to marry someone without influence or intelligence because he did not want to marry a spy!

Ena gritted her teeth, irritation apparent in her eyes.

If she had known this, she would not have wasted her time talking to Rosie!

This woman was giving her a headache!

She watched as Rosie started eating the pastries. While she looked elegant enough, her mannerisms were still different from someone who was born noble. Moreover, the woman looked like the Duke had been starving her since she arrived in the North!

Her lips twitched, irritation apparent in her eyes.

How could someone like this exist?

"Your Blessedness, this is really good. Please please have some," Rosalind said as she looked at the servant. "Please serve Her Blessedness. How could you miss something like this?"

"In fact, I have already eaten something, and my body is not yet used to the cold. I am feeling quite tired from traveling last night."

"Oh I apologize for disturbing you"

"No." Ena immediately tried to stop Rosalind from getting up and giving her another bow. "Seeing that you enjoy the food is enough. However, I may have to leave ahead of time. I needed to rest. I can only hope that my departure will not offend you in any way."

"Your Blessedness, I know this is my fault. Please, at least let me accompany you to your"

"No!" Ena held a hand towards Rosalind. "There is no need for you to do that. I can ask the servant to take me to my quarters. For now just just enjoy the pastries that I have prepared for you."

"Are you Are you certain you are alright, Your Blessedness? You look pale. Now that I have taken the time to stare at your beautiful face, I notice that you do not look too well. Are you sick? Do you want me to call the physician?"

"I truly appreciate your concern. I will let my servants do that. For now, just enjoy the food. I am going to invite you to another tea time when I feel better."

"That is magnificent. I can come here anytime that you want. I will be available tomorrow and"

"Not tomorrow. No. I will send you a letter." With that, Ena got up. She did not want to prolong this conversation any longer.

"Your Blessedness"

"What is it?" Ena tried to hide the irritation in her eyes. To her surprise, Rosalind approached her and grabbed her hand. Then she kissed the back of Ena's palm. "Thank you. Please send me a letter when you need me. I will be here in a heartbeat."

Hearing this, Ena vowed never to invite this woman unless she found out something new about her!
