Royal Princess: Doted On By The Mafia King - Chapter 206
“I have had sleepless nights thinking about this. I chose to tell you because I have burnt the bridge. If you hand me over to the guards, I will get killed for the secret I know.
“If you let me remain on your side and help you, then from henceforth, I will serve you as I planned.”
“I am going to do none of that,” Rose said firmly as she got up being done eating her meal.
Her assistant looked at her surprised by what the answer she got. She really was not expecting that.
“I heard nothing from you today. You should eat your lunch. I am heading out,” Rose informed her.
She picked the key of her car and a smallbag to go with her outfit.
She did not glanced at her assistant as she walked out of the room followed by her guards.
She trusted no one. Perhaps someone was listening to all her assistant narrated.
She knew that Liam had made something to prevent such a thing from happening but what if her assistant was going to do the job herself?
She could find no reason. After listening to what the lady said, she did not know what to believe.
She did not trust the lady. She has not seen the evidence of the injustice her father faced in his death.
She was not even sure that her assistant was a southerner not from the north after all she was employed by the king.
What if that was a test? If it was a test from her father, she was not sure if she passed it and if it was a test from anyone else, she did not care a bit of what the result was.
The thing her assistant said about Southerners looking different from northerner was something of the past before the union.
After the union a lot of children who were given birth to to parents from both Kingdoms became so much in the kingdom.
She was one of them. The difference could only be noticed by someone who is very observant.
She was not observant enough to differentiate a northerner from a Southerner.
She only knew that the most beautiful people came from the south.
They were known for their height which was different from her since she was not as tall but she was not short either.
With her eyes color which was neither light not dark, she wondered how hard it will be for anyone who tries to identify her.
The people from the south had lighter eyes color and lighter hair color. It was not very well distributed because some northerners still had those features.
She heard elderly people found it easy to differentiate the mixed from the northerner and a southerner from a northerner.
She had no idea since she was sorrounded by both northerners and Southerners who never identified themselves.
“I could teach you how to identify people easily,” she heard a voice from behind just as soon as she was done putting on her seatbelt.
“How did you get in!?” she asked shocked but trying to act other wise.
“Through the door,” he replied easily.
“I clearly left you in my room,” she said with a puzzled expression.
“I left your room. I am now in your car. I guess I will disturb with the task of driving me out of here,” he said as he jumped from the backseat to the front seat beside her.
She gave him a soft glare before pressing the start button.
“I could drive you if you don’t find it proper.”
“Fine,” she said as she got down from the car and went to the back seat.
“Aren’t you scared that we could get sighted and you will have to get scolded by your assistant?”
“You heard what she said, right?”
“Yeah. I did. It was convincing enough but I will advise you not to trust her at all. She was put on your side by your father.”
“I know that much,” she said looking down at her small designer bag. She bit her lower lip helplessly.
“You should not take what she said seriously. It was a good thing I heard everything. I will investigate accordingly.”
“What if what she said is true?”
“You don’t need her help although having someone you can trust by your side is a good thing. It will be best you watch her until she proves herself til you are satisfied.”
“Do you know about the research party she was talking about?”
“Yes, I know. I sent four people into the institute but only one of them came back alive.”
“Is it that serious?”
“Yes. A lot of researchers have lost their lives due to that research institute and lot more will keep dying.
“Southerners are known all over the world for their extraordinarily high IQ. We have more geniuses than all other country combined in the world the north included.
“They keep taking researchers from the south to that institute and most of them don’t return alive.
“Most people are too occupied to notice a few geniuses going missing.
“Although things are changing now. They will be a protest soon which will lead to angry scientists and their families fighting against what has happened.
“No one will believe what they say because after all, they have no evidence and other people will think it’s simply ridiculous.
“No one knows where the institute is and it took me years to find its location. It is located in an unsuspected place.
“People will die. It is the first wave of the elimination of the Southerners.
“I guess your arrival will delay things a little. People are really looking up to you.
“Things will be calm until you show your full loyalty to the north,” he took his time to narrate as he drove her away from the mansion which was once her mother’s home.
“Why will I want to do something like that?” Rose could not understand why she will show full submission to the north after all, she was her mother’s daughter.
“For your survival. Right now your position in the palace is not stable. You are not even in A city to play your role as the princess.
“Your step mother is already trying her best to see that her son becomes king.
“She won’t sit by and watch you take it from her. Knowing this, you will want to proof that you can be the puppet princess your father told the council you are.
“The moment you do that both the northerners and royal council members will be at ease, the Southerners will lose hope and try to fight for their right themselves.”
Rose groaned frustratedly. “Why is this so hard and complicated?” she murmured.
“That is where I will get to work. I will stop the protest since I know very how that is going to happen.
“Secure your position as the heir. By doing that, they won’t have the guts to kill you although I will never let that happen.
“I will take care the scientist who are looking for their colleagues and the family of the missing scientists. I will do everything.
“The deaths of those scientist they killed are being staged. I will slowly release the real cause of the death of any scientist.
“They seem to have very good writers who are good at creating the perfect scenario but people are not believing their lies anymore.
“I will handle all that. You will get interviewed soon. On that interview, I want you to side with the north.
“They will throw really absurd questions on your part.
“When the time comes, I will give you the original list of questions before the interview and we will come up with the right answers for them.”
Hearing him tell her all these, she found out that she was getting a lot of help from him and she had no idea of what to do if she was faced with such happenings alone.
“The division, are you in support of it?” she asked him after a moment of silence.
“Yes. I am totally in support of a division. My family was never in support of it.
“A division will take things back to the way it has always been. Your mother’s marriage to someone from the north is the reason all these are happening.
“She also died because she trusted the wrong people and forsook those she should have remained with,” Liam replied her naturally.
She looked down at her fingers and bit her lower lips again. She has been told that twice today.
“Do you think our marriage will lead to a havock?”
“No, it won’t. I think you should relax because I am definitely not someone who will betray you. I met you by chance as young boy and I swore to marry you then.”
She chuckled. She wondered why his answer which sounded firm and serious actually felt cheesy.
“It is not funny. Shouldn’t that make you believe that I am never going to hurt you or the Southerners although I can’t assure you that I won’t hurt a northerner or her supporters?”
