Royal Princess: Doted On By The Mafia King - Chapter 181
The journey felt shorter than ever when she Liam woke her up. She actually wanted to sleep more. The scent from his body and the firmness of the hands around her was the best sleeping pill ever. She frowned when she had to put on her seat belt and get ready to land.
Liam gave her a gentle pat on her head when he noticed her pouting in dissatisfaction.
When they got to his home, the sleep got wiped out of her eyes when she noticed he took her to her grandfather’s house. It was once her grandfather’s holiday house in Star city. Her grandfather used to likey staying in that mansion whenever he was not occupied with matters of the kingdom.
This place her mother’s second home. She have visited this place a few times but then she was too young to remember much about it except that her grandfather was sick.
Her mother lived most of her life without her mother.. Her father now dying, told her mother to remain Queen of their kingdom while her father forsake becoming King since he claimed to love her mother more than his birthright.
She was going to rule as Queen while her father supports her but her mother was totally against it. She was very angry with her father and she stormed out of the house. Her mother later did just what her father told her not to do by merging the two kingdoms to become one.
Her grandfather left a few of his people in the Royal council of their kingdom to ensure that doesn’t happen but as soon as her grandfather passed away, all those people he placed in those positions died along with him. Her mother said they were killed by someone she was yet to identify.
From the information she got from those videos, she knows that the decisions her mother made played a very important role in all that have happened and she as her mother’s daughter was going to clean up all the mess her mother made and set her people free.
To do all that, she had to be powerful enough to fight for herself and the millions of lives she had to protect.
“How did you get this house?” she asked when she stepped into the living room to discover it had been redecorated leaving no trace of it’s past owner.
“I got it from one of your mother’s distant cousins,” he replied sincerely. He frowned when he saw the displeasure on her face. “The house was empty when got it. It seems they sold all that was in the house and left the house empty for a year. I bought the house when I was looking for a house for myself in Star city.”
“Oh. Where is our bedroom?” she asked biting back shyness and making the word “our” sound insignificant.
“What will you like to eat for dinner?” he asked in a low tone.
“Anything you make for me,” she replied casually and waited for him to take her to the bedroom so she could rest her head.
“The bedroom is this way. Come with me,” he said and led the way upstairs to a room. “I won’t be able to prepare dinner for you but the chef has very good culinary skills. She will prepare something good for you.”
Rose narrowed her eyes displeased. What does he mean by some other woman will cook dinner for her? She did not want that at all. She wanted to eat his food.
She glanced at him and back at the bed thoughtfully. She wondered if he was still angry because she wanted to return to the palace. Shouldn’t he be happy she still wanted to go on with the wedding?
While staying locked up in that room, she actually considered refusing to marry him and having his father settle the contract issue for her when she thought of how much of a disadvantage her relationship with him could have.
Weighing the pros and cons, she found out that the with bad relationship he has with a few of the noble families and the reputation he built for himself as a Mafia King it was wrong she gets involved with him like that since it was very important she does what is a right and proper as a future Queen.
However, she was no longer going to take things gentle. She was going to be tough like her great grandmother. Her great grandmother was a Queen who did not care what people think. She got the nickname of Ice Queen from most students studying history but she was a heroine.
She loved and fought for her people even coming up with a very good military tactic that saved her people. She was one of the strongest Queens in history and that was what she also wanted to be in history.
She did not want to be a Queen who cared so much for etiquette that she lost it all and endangered the life of her people because she was too scared to disobey a rule of etiquette. That was the reason she wanted to make her wedding public.
She was going to openly hold that strong hand since she did not leave him to join his father considering that he was more powerful in A and Star city than his father. Their relationship might actually ensure her safety in the palace.
“I have something to check out with my men here in Star city. It is very urgent that is why I really can’t stay to cook dinner for you I have to get going now because I am almost late,” he found himself explaining to her when he had to withstand her gaze for a few seconds.
“It is okay. I will like to know all about anything that concerns me,” she replied walking to the closet to get a new set of clothes.
“The house, are you okay with it?” he asked following her.
“Thanks for buying the house. I am sure my grandfather will be happy that you bought the house.”
