Peace Offering To The Cursed Prince - Chapter 394
When the two families’ heads were informed that the queen wish to speak with them they were both surprised.
Lord Carrero had a bad feeling about this, he knew that his daughter still wanted the king so he was scared that she would do something immoral, yet he did not say anything before finding out what happened.
Lord Carrero went along with his wife, they were the first to arrive at the queen’s receiving hall. When they arrived, Grater welcome them and serve them tea.
Shortly after lord Sliow and his wife arrived. Lady Silow was not the mother of Brad, after all, Brad’s mother just become a part of the family. The two of them exchange pleasantries.
Then Grater once again serves them tea without saying anything. She knew that there was going to be a good drama to watch soon.
The two families kept looking at each other, they both wanted to ask the other if they know why the queen asked to see them but in the end, they did not speak.
Shortly after the two families sat down the Qiern arrived. Lady Carrero had a bitter smile as she bowed to the queen. If only they had taken the chance back then and married Vera to the crown prince, she would have been the queen’s mother today. Unfortunately, there was no magic to go back in time.
Ellen nodded her head before taking her seat gracefully. Grater serves the queen tea and stoold at the side. Ellen had a small smile playing on her lips as she took a sip.
Lady Carrero was so angry seeing this, even if Ellen is the queen, she felt that Ellen should give them respect as elders.
She wanted to scold Ellen but she knew that she could only dare if she no longer wanted her tongue, so she swallowed her anger with great difficulty.
“Lord Silow,” Ellen called out after she dropped her teacup. “Your highness,” lord Silow bowed his head in response.
“You have a son that goes by the name Brad?” Ellen asked as if she was trying to confirm something. When lord Silow heard this question his heart missed a beat. He knew that his son was good at causing trouble but he doubt Brad will dare to cause trouble in the palace.
“Yes, your highness…” Lord Silow answered calmly. No matter what trouble the boy has caused he hopes it was something the Queen was able to forgive after all he had just this one son. Even if his youngest wife was currently with a child, who can tell if she will birth a son.
“I knew it, I knew that good for nothing son of yours will cause the family trouble soon,” lady Sliow started pushing the blame on her husband. This made lord Silow dissatisfied but he did not say anything to her.
“I apologize for my wife’s behavior she gets easily carried away,” lord Sliow apologize to the queen. When lady Silow so this she felt embarrassed and cursed him in her heart.
Ellen did not make any comments, seeing that lord Sliow was really willing to support his son, she felt her plan would work smoothly.
“Brad was caught in my chamber with a lady, who claimed he force himself on her,” Ellen said. At this point, the two families were shocked. Lady Carrero felt her heart hanging on her throat, as she could guess that the lady in question is her Vera.
“No, no it can not be,” lady Carrero shook her head.
“I do not believe that my son will not force himself on a woman,” lord Sliow rejected. Even if he just brought Brad to the family he has been paying attention to him all these years.
“How would you know that his mother has no morals anyway,” Lady Sliow was happy to hear this news that she speak without thinking.
When lord Silow heard her words he was disappointed but he did not want to show the whole kingdom the failure of his family so he ignored her.
“Your highness, I believe this is a misunderstanding. Let me talk to my son,” lord Silow said.
” invite them in,” Ellen turned to Grater. Grater bowed her head and walked out while Ellen continue to sip her tea.
Once Brad and Vera stepped in lady Carrero lost her composure and dashed at Brad. “You will be stoned to death,” she caused at him as she repeatedly hit him.
“Lord Carrero, I believe your wife is going overboard,” lord Sliow said. When lady Carrero heard him she was very displeased.
“Me! It is this good for nothing son of yours that will have a horrible death. He has ruined my daughter’s life and yet you have the boldness to say I am going overboard,” she replied.
“What do you mean my son ruined your daughter’s life, unless your daughter is willing my son would never force himself on a woman,” lord Sliow declared. He knew that Brad’s mother have taught him to respect women. He will not force himself on a woman.
“What? Do you dare to call the Queen a liar? Ahh… This is indeed a shameless family,” lady Carrero cursed.
“Too loud,” Ellen said as she took a sip from her tea. She was indeed enjoying the show.
“Your highness, you have to give justice to my daughter, her life has been ruined,” lady Carrero’s voice was louder this time that Ellen felt her ears hurt.
“I asked for the family heads, not dogs. The barking is too loud,” Ellen frown her brows. She said only used the word ‘claim’ yet lady Carrero lost her composure. How did such a dumb woman become the lady of such a household?
What Ellen did not know is that this woman was not dumb but Vera is her precious daughter so she lost herself a little.
Lady Carrero was already angry, more so she looked down on Ellen and felt that her daughter would have made a better queen, so when she heard Ellen call her a dog, she was so angry.
“You… She pointed her ready to scold Ellen, luckily, her husband was still in his right senses. He immediately covers her mouth.
” shut up or get out,” lord Carrero raised his voice. Lady Carrero was angry about what he did but she regain a bit of her senses and returned to her seat.
“I think you must have misunderstood me, I said your daughter ‘claim’ I did not say it was true,” Ellen mocked lady Carrero.
