I Became The Tyrant’s Secretary - Chapter 12 Part 2

It was Hui’s belief that the  secretary, who knows all about His Majesty’s character, will often marry him.

Derek didn’t want to put a damper on Hui’s dream plan, so he decided to keep his negative thoughts to himself. They finally leaned against the wall to watch Rosaline and Cahir dance. They heard countless rave reviews about Cahir and Rosaline, that they had calluses in their ears, saying that they were the couple of the century, that they were the goddess and the man-god, and that they would never see a painting like this again. At some point, all the painters Rosaline hired painted the same picture.

Rosaline and Cahir spun around hands in hands, not even knowing that the painters she had hired directly were painting them.

“Your Majesty! Aren’t you a good dancer?”

Rosaline asked with a blushed face. It was the moment when their bodies touched.

“Is there anything I can’t do?” Cahir replied.

“You’re not what you used to be. Did you practice?”

“Geniuses don’t need practice. They get it once they see it.”

‘It’s just my luck.’ Rosaline mumbled and frowned.

The music played faster and faster, and Rosaline and Cahir came closer.

“By the way, Your Majesty. I feel a bit unfair…”

“What?”

Was it because they kept bumping into each other? Rosaline complained.

“It’s my first, ah…, my first banquet,  and my first dance. It’s not your first time, isn’t it, Your Majesty?”

Breathing hard, Rosaline focused on Cahir’s lead, not wanting to miss a step.

“It’s my first time too.” Cahir answered.

However, Cahir never ran out of breath. His breathing was calm, as if Rosaline was the only one dancing.

The time for conversation was short. But they were more focused than ever on each other’s stories.

“What are you talking about? I’m a man who doesn’t need to lie.”

It’s true. He didn’t have to lie to look good. Rosaline’s lips twitched.

“Your Majesty, I’ve been following you to every banquet. I can’t even count the number of women you’ve danced with…”

Cahir pulled Rosaline in a different direction. Rosalynn’s waist was firmly planted in Cahir’s arms. Then, the music began to slow down. It was a signal that the song was coming to an end.

“Rosaline, let me tell you because you don’t seem to remember. This is the first time you’ve asked for a dance with your hand out first. So today is my real first dance at the banquet. Are you feeling any better now, Rosaline?”

The music ended.

Rosaline breathed hard. A long surge shook her as if she was hit in the head with a hammer. She couldn’t move as she leaned her upper body back. Cahir put his arms around Rosaline’s slender waist and held her up.To keep herself from falling, Rosaline gripped Cahir’s arms tightly.

“That was fun, wasn’t it, Rosaline.” Said the mean, mischievous Cahir, one eye blinked.

Rosaline glared at him.

“Now that I’m in a reasonably good mood with the Empress, I’d like to rest, what do you intend to do Rosaline?”

Cahir looked at Rosaline with a very satisfied look in his eyes.

However, with sweat oozing down her forehead, she was feeling very tired. She wanted to rest too. Dancing was an intense exercise. Especially for Rosaline, who only held a pen and walked and breathed every day. When it came to exercise, it was very strenuous. But Rosaline was the one who organized the banquet. She could not rest.

“I’m fine, Your Majesty. If you go in first and rest, I’ll send someone to get you when the feast is over. There is portrait will be made after.”

Rosaline called for ten painters to today’s banquet. She ordered them to paint a beautiful and lovely scene of the banquet. The paintings will be published in the weekly bulletin announcing the news of the Imperial Palace and spread throughout the Empire.

If the beautiful stories about the imperial palace’s close family spread throughout the empire, there would be fewer children try to profit from the gap between Azela and Cahir. It was for this reason that the emperor had to stand side by side with Azela, the empress, at the time of final celebration.

“Will you be here?”

“Yes, Your Majesty,”

Rosaline said quickly. Cahir looked at Rosaline with a worried expression and turned away. It was opposite the entrance to the banquet hall.
