Chapter 6
"I am a man so it's only natural for me to have more than one lover. I am also a future Emperor of this Kingdom, Emperors have a lot of concubines and you as an engage woman needs to refrain from interacting to other man. Remember you are mine Reina" said Prince Helsion threateningly.
Reina felt so angry deep inside her heart "Who do you think you are to command me? We are just engage and you are not my husband yet where did you get the guts to command me on what to do? Am I an object? So wake up Prince Helsion "asked Reina angrily. Her face is flushed because of too much anger she felt.
"What did you say?" Prince Helsion shouted.
"I said I am not an object and I am going to ask the Emperor to annul our engagement. So stop pestering me and if I am going to marry in the future I want my man to be mine all alone. I don't like the idea of sharing my husband to any woman" Reina said coldly.
The people in the party are all looking at the two of them. Leonor is one of those, her eyes is full of envy and jealousy towards Reina. "I should be the one being doted on by the crown Prince and not that bitch. Prince Helios said that he loved me and he is going to marry me as his crown Princess in the future so I need to be patient. After he become an Emperor the first one I am going to kill is that pretentious bitch". But she still felt uncomfortable seeing her man wooing another woman even if she knows that it is just an act.
She was shocked when she heard what Reina said. "How can this be possible? Before they poised her and throw her into the pond in the Palace garden she was still so clingy on the crown Prince. She even threated him that she will kill herself if the crown Prince annulled their engagement. Now she was asking for annulment herself. I can't believe her word may be this is her way of getting the crown Prince attention. I won't let that happen."
"Reina, the crown Prince is just reminding you. It's for your own good why can't you see it. He is just concern about you and your reputation. You can also affect him because he is still your fiancée" said Leonor with tearful eyes.
"Hah! Concern, about me you say? He didn't even visit me after I fell on the Pond and you still have the guts to tell me that he is concerned about me" said Reina to Leonor angrily. "Oh! By the way during that time, if I remember correctly before I fell into the Pond the two of you approached me. Prince Helsion according to you, you loved my stepsister more than me, right? Now I am giving you the freedom to love each other so please stop pestering me" after Reina said it she walked out of the Palace and go directly at their carriage.
"What the sisters are quarrelling for a man?" whispered the other nobles at the party.
Leonor become pale when she heard what Reina said. She felt more shameful after she heard the whispers of the nobles.
"What a shameless woman stealing her sister's man" whispered the other old lady.
"Shhhhh, be careful with your words didn't you hear, she is the crown Prince woman."
"If I heard any word from anyone of you I will punish you all" crown Prince Helion shouted. He was about to follow Reina when Duke Ricardo blocked his way.
"Where do you think you're going your majesty?" asked Duke Ricardo to Prince Helion.
"I am going to follow her and explain things. Don't blocked my way Duke Ricardo" said Prince Helion frustrated.
"Do you think I will allow you? Crown Prince Helion don't forget that the girl you shame is my daughter. So I advise you not to follow her anymore. I will talk to the Emperor to dissolve your engagement" added the Duke gloomily. Before he leaves the party and follow her daughter in the carriage.
While crown Prince Helion was extremely mad.
"Duke Ricardo is really presumptuous. He dared to disobey me after I become the Emperor I will removed him from his position and his title as a Duke" said crown Prince Helion to himself.
Because of shame Leonor and her mother Liana go home early. They follow Duke Ricardo in the carriage.
"Mother, because of that bitch Reina I become the gossip of the nobles. How am I going to still mingle in the high society" said Leonor to her mother while crying her eyes out.
"Don't you worry the crown Prince loves you already so she can never do anything to you. You are much more superior to that brainless bitch who only know how to pester a man" console Liana to her daughter.
"But mother the crown Prince seems interested in her'' said Leonor unconvinced.
"As if do you not know the reason why he needs to act like that? That bitch is still Duke Ricardo's daughter one of the most powerful and influential man in the Kingdom. Do you think that Duke will allow her daughter to suffer unfair treatment?"
"Father is really biased when it comes to her"
"Don't you worry about anything because mother will help you with everything you needed" said Liana.
"I will make sure that my daughter's future will become glorious" promised Liana to herself.
"Richard, it seems like your sister is having trouble with the crown Prince" said one of Richard's friend.
"What did that jerk do with my sister?" asked Richard angrily.
He doesn't know what happed because he has something to do. The Emperor asked him to do him a favor of dispatching the other knights for safety of those nobles who are present at the party for the Royal family. So he didn't have any idea of what happened when he was gone.
