Peace Offering To The Cursed Prince - Chapter 396
When Ellen saw the lady Carrero talking so loudly she shook her head. This person is not worthy to be called a noble lady, how could she act like the woman trying to sell goods in the market.
“Lady Vera since you are very familiar with the maid, you should tell us her name,” Ellen was very calm.
“Her name is Sansa,” lady Vera replied. She knew that even if her parent realized that she was lying they will still cover up for her.
“Grater, see if you can find anyone with the name Sansa among the maids in the palace,” Ellen was very calm.
Grater bowed and walked out of the room. Then she went searching for the maid. It took a while before she returned.
“Your highness, I have asked around but there is no such maid in the palace. I asked the head maid of the palace, he said that after what happened to you a few days ago, the king sent away many of the maids. Maybe Sansa was among them,” Grater replied.
“Vera, are you sure you saw that person on the royal family uniform tonight,” lady Carrero was feeling anxious.
“Yes, mother I could not have been mistaken,” Vera bite her lips.
“Ahh, my poor daughter, who would have thought that a thing like this will happen in the palace. A common maid had the ability to do this. My poor daughter has suffered,” Lady Carrero cried.
“Well, since we can not find the maid, it is impossible to get to the root of what happened this evening,” Ellen shook her head.
“What do you mean that there is no way to get to the root of this? Is it not clear that someone schemed agaist my daughter and ruin her life. We from the Carrero family demand an explanation from the royal family,” Lady Carrero declared.
She felt that she was right after all they were guests of the royal family, so if anything happens the royal family should give them an explanation.
“What explanation should we offer, was it the royal family’s fault that your daughter is stupid and fell into a common scheme like this?” Ellen asked.
When lady Carrero heard the question she was angry. “How can you say that? The maid managed to wear the uniform of the royal family, how was my daughter supposed to know that she no longer works with the royal family. We demand to know why the Royal family will have such unreliable maids,” lady Carrero snapped.
When Ellen heard her, she smiled and took another sip of her tea. “I do not have the right to speak on behalf of the royal family in this matter. I should call the king,” Ellen said. She did not feel anxious at all. Lady Carrero could see that Ellen was not taking her seriously at all.
“Two please inform the king about the situation. Do not forget to add that lady Carrero has been insulting the royal family for a few minutes now,” Ellen was smiling as she said those words.
Meanwhile, the three members of the Carrero family felt scared when they heard the Queen’s words.
“Your highness, my wife is feeling very emotional because of what happened to our daughter. Please do not take her words to heart. We just want to find out who dares to ruin our daughter’s life,” lord Carrero said.
Ellen did not bother to reply, instead, she continued to sip her tea and looked at the three of them.
The Royal ball comes to an end half an hour later and the king finally came over an hour later.
“Your Majesty,” everyone in the room got up and bowed their heads.
Sebastian nodded his head and walked over to the seat beside Ellen. At this point Two already told him what happened earlier.
After taking his seat he turned to look at Ellen, his eyes were serious and he seem he was mad about something.
“Two said you went inside with the maid and saw those two? Did you see his naked body?” His tone was very firm. It was as if it did not matter who’s life got ruined.
Ellen:…
Two:…
The members of the Carrero family:…
Members of the Sliow family:…
What happened to their domineering king?
Sebastian indeed did not care, all he cared about was if Ellen saw something dirty.
“Of course not, Rosa walked ahead of me, and once she notice what was going in she immediately covered my eyes. I did not see anything,” Ellen answered seriously.
“Hmm, you sound like you regret not seeing it,” Sebastian raised his brows looking at Ellen.
Everyone in the room was surprised again. Meanwhile, Sebastian was thinking of slicing Brad into pieces if this was the case.
Ellen was not sure if she should be happy or sad about the king’s reaction.
“Your Majesty, how will I be willing to look at something that will dirty my eyes,” Ellen shook her head.
Sebastian was satisfied with the answer, he then nodded his head and turned to the members of the Carrero family. “I heard you demanded an explanation from the royal family?” Sebastian asked. The aura around the king was so suppressing that lady Carrero did not dare to look at the king.
Ahh, he was still scary even without the mask on.
“Your Majesty, my daughter’s life is ruined, my wife was just been worried,” lord Carrero was the one who spoke this time. He knew that the king before him did not even fear the late king when he was on the throne, talkless of his family.
“What do you mean ruined, I head the young man is at a marriageable age. Young man even if someone has schemed against you, you should take responsibility for your stupidity,” Sebastian said.
“Your Maj, I already told lady Vera that I was willing to take responsibility since this was a setup. We are both victims but as a man, I will not ignore my mistake,” Brad was scared of the king but he managed to form his words.
“Lord Carrero, what else do you want? Or is it that you look down on the Sliow family?” Sebastian asked.
As much as lady Carrero would like to say yes that she looked down on the Sliow family because of Brad, she did not dare.. After all, if she said so the marriage will be canceled and no one else from a noble family will be willing to marry Vera, and even if they did, she will be at a disadvantage.
