Dragon Loves Me - Chapter 79
“What?” Ronald jumped in his seat.
“Or do you have?” Henirich inquired.
“What are you talking about grandfather? Hell NO. She is older than me, but more importantly I didn’t even speak with her for once.” Ronald explained hurriedly. Just the thought of it giving goose bumps to him.
“Why did you ask? Father” Allora asked Henirich.
Henirich looked at her and said “There are two reasons as per my speculation. One Princess felt a sense of danger after seeing Ivy’s skills. Ivy is not known to public eyes till now and she possessed great skills which made her feel inferior and jealous. Because as per my reports, this princess is self centred and always wants to be in the limelight.”
“But suddenly when everyone started praising Ivy she didn’t digest it and wanted to get rid of her. It is quite common for the royal family to play this kind of trick. As a royal family member you are also aware of how the princess will be right?” Henirich posed a question to Allora.
Allora who once bathed in that light is also quite aware of how tempting and advantageous that position is. As a princess of the Kingdom people bow to them, they will praise them, they will listen to them. All these are like addiction, they seem to be more alluring but at the same time they are dangerous. Once we feel our title will be threatened we will do what we can in our power.
Luckily Allora has a loving family and her father taught her never to take her position for granted. He taught her what she can do by using her power to the welfare of the people. She felt grateful for that. There is a thin line between good and bad and we can choose that path from our childhood.
So we need proper guidance and persons to guide us in the correct path. That is the reason parenting is important.
“Yes. What about the other reason?” Allora looked at her father.
“What else made you feel enmity about other ladies when they eye your husband?” Henirich chuckled.
“So you are saying the Princess is thinking that Ivy is eyeing her man?” Allora’s voice came out with a hint of shock. “But who?”
“I thought it was Ronald. But thinking of it doesn’t make sense. If she has interest in Ronald then she will be friends with Ivy. Is there any other man Ivy is close with after coming here?” Henirich probed.
Simon thought for a while and her eyes widened with shock “Cay.. Cayden”
Back in the Kreed Garden, Ivy felt happy for Cayden words and she felt his sincerity towards her. He never made her feel uncomfortable with his words and actions.
So Ivy wants to test Cayden’s promise, she really wants to know whether he will be there or not, she wants to know whether he will be frank with her or not.
Cayden’s body stiffened when he heard about Ivy’s question, he didn’t bring that topic as he didn’t want to disturb her more and yesterday’s incident is not easy to forget. And when he heard about Glen’s words he also sensed something wrong.
‘Like why did the princess hurt Ivy whom she barely met?’
But when Ivy asked him the question he felt like all the doubts in his mind became clear. He never thought that the princess would do something like this for him. Just because he showed interest in Ivy, the princess tried to harm Ivy.
“That… That.. “Cayden didn’t get any words to speak. He is truly shocked and devastated with the sudden revelation of truth.
‘Is it all because of me?’ This question is eating him away.
Ivy understood his situation and said “It’s okay. Don’t force yourself. I am taking my leave”
With that saying Ivy turned around to leave. Cayden felt that he made a mistake and shouted anxiously “Ivy, wait.”
Ivy didn’t turn back but waited for his words, Cayden went near to him and stood behind her and said “Yes, she had interest in me. But I never entertained her, she used to call me with all kinds of names, I informed her to not do that but she never listened to my words. She is the princess and I can’t avoid her even if I want to.”
“I told her many times to not follow me and to not call me like that. But she never paid any heed to my words” Cayden let his words out.
Ivy smiled and turned around “Got it.”
Cayden looked at her and he felt relieved seeing her smile “Ivy, do you believe me?”
Ivy did not respond to him for some time and said “You did great Cay. If you did not answer my question today maybe I won’t believe you. It takes courage to tell that even though we are not the one to blame.”
Cayden nodded his head and asked hesitatingly “Is she behind these incidents?”
One part of him already knows the truth but he is not ready to accept it, he doesn’t want to be a part of her plan even if it means indirectly.
“You will know soon. Don’t blame yourself. It’s time I have to go now. See you later” Ivy bid goodbye and left Cayden on his own.
Elric and Ivy bid their goodbyes to the remaining people and left the Mansion. Elric is in a good mood when he leaves the mansion. Ivy noticed this and asked out of curiosity.
“You seem to be in good mood”
Elric looked at Ivy and cleared his throat before saying “It’s nothing.”
Ivy raised her brows “As I would believe your words”
Elric chuckled seeing her reaction and said “It’s been a long time since I spent some time happily. Thanks to you”
Ivy waved her hand and said “It’s fine. As long as you enjoy it.”
“What about you? You seem to have a lot of thoughts in your mind?” Elric noticed Ivy in the morning. She seems to be normal outside but he is observing ivy every moment. She seems to be smiling but she is tired.
“Yes, I have.” Ivy agreed to his words.
“Is that the reason for coming here?”
“Means?”
“You want to clarify something, so that is the reason you came here right?”
