Fiona gulped, no, she was embarrassed. Judy supported that woman contrary to her expectation – he failed her. She was sure Emily was full of pride and was about to take up the roasting where Judy stopped. The Queen has led her to her demise, this was a wrong move. She was too hasty this time.
“Leaving?” Emily gave Judy the look, “Why should she leave?”
“Huh?” Judy blinked, confused.
Emily left Judy and focused her attention on the beautiful strawberry blonde woman standing outside her door, “You came for the wedding right?”
Fiona couldn’t even answer, stunned by what was going on. Why was this woman not throwing her weight around? Was she just dumb or too kind or…..
A smile lifted the corner of Fiona’s mouth, could it be that the woman was finally acknowledging her place and accepting the reality that no matter what she does, she would never be the one to settle down with Judy?
Because of Emily’s humility and Judy’s lessened killing intent, Fiona resumed her pompous mood. What has she got to fear anyway? Her father was part of the inner court and controlled about forty percent of the resources in Lincolnshire.
“You came for the wedding, didn’t you?” Emily repeated politely.
“Yes, I did, but I was informed late hence why I couldn’t meet up with it. I contemplated staying at a hotel when I remembered Prince Kai….” she said, looking at the man with adoration, ” Had a property nearby so I thought of spending the night here instead of wasting my resources at the hotel,” she gave Emily a sensible answer. Humph! Let’s see if the woman can find fault with it.
“I never told you I had a private property, how did you find out?” Judy asked, a look of displeasure on his face.
Who was Fiona deceiving? His mother must have gotten the information and gave it to her. The both of them were undoubtedly in cahoots.
“You’re the prince and this place was once your root. There’s no doubt you’d like to connect with it by purchasing properties,” Fiona replied smartly.
“How did you get my address then?” Judy pressed, he was not giving up on this.
“Judy,” Emily pulled the sleeve of his cloth to draw his attention,” Fiona just came from a long flight, she needs a roof over her head and her thin clothes can’t shield her much from the cold wind outside,” she laid much emphasis on “thin clothing”. She wasn’t stupid enough not to see through the girl’s plan.
Judy was exasperated, why was Emily inviting this little vixen into their house. Fine, he’d go with her decision, but if Fiona tries anything stupid, he’d skin her alive – if only he knew he wouldn’t even have to lift a finger at all.
“You should come in dear,” Emily welcomed the delighted Fiona into the house. If only the girl wasn’t eager to intrude on the couples, she’d have been observant enough to notice the hidden dark smirk that pulled Emily’s lips to the side.
The third point of view:
“Make yourself comfortable,” Emily played the part of a good hostess.
With her head lifted high, Fiona strutted into the living room. This was the treatment she deserves. However, her brows suddenly furrowed, why was she being treated like a visitor and this woman behaving like the mistress of the house? That idea didn’t sit well with her.
“There are only two rooms here available, hence you would be sharing one with me” Emily informed her.
Share her butt! Fiona wanted to throw a fit but shut up when her eyes met with Kai’s. Gosh, she almost lost control. For Christ’s sake, she was a noble and wasn’t supposed to lose her calm because of this woman. Fine, she’d endure this humiliation with Kai’s presence but once it’s time to settle down for the night, she’d put this woman in her place.
It wasn’t over until it’s truly over. Just because the woman gave birth to the first official prince doesn’t guarantee her spot as the next queen. The queen dowager doesn’t approve of her which means no matter what the woman does, she would never be Kai’s wife, the queen. Once Fiona becomes the new queen, she would give birth to more princes and princesses and that woman would be forgotten.
A slow smile worked its way across her face and into her eyes when Fiona thought about being Kai’s wife. She would be the brightest shining star in the kingdom of Lincolnshire and all eyes would be on her. Though Kai might not feel anything for her now, Fiona was confident he would come to love her in the future.
“You should relax, I’ll take your things inside,” Emily offered to carry her luggage but Judy snatched it away from her with a frown.
“I asked you not to strain yourself,” He scolded her and took the bag to the room leaving both women alone.
There was tension in the air so thick a knife could cut through it. Fiona stared at the woman with a condescending look as she wondered what drew the prince to Emily. She must have bewitched him, that was the only explanation she could come up with.
Emily sighed, why were some women so dumb. This woman was so willing to throw herself at a man that wouldn’t even take a look at her – Girl, have some pride! Fine, since she asked for trouble, she’d give her one. Sometimes, everything was not achieved by violence; there are many ways to kill a rat.
“You must be hung-“
“Yes, I’m hungry,” she took the words right out of Emily’s mouth, “I came from a long flight, were you expecting me to go to bed with an empty stomach? Is that how you treat your guest?!” She raised her voice a bit.
“Of course not, your royal highness,” Emily said with heavy sarcasm.
Fiona wanted to quibble on her
rudeness but Emily didn’t give her a chance.
“But your highness, because of your impromptu visit, we didn’t make enough arrangements hence there are not so many ingredients available and might have to put up with whatever I prepare,” Emily told her with a smile that didn’t touch her eyes.
“Y-you,” Fiona was stunned by that attitude, ” How dare -“
“Is anything the matter?” Judy made his appearance.
“Of course not,” Emily answered,
“Fiona was just telling me how hungry she was,”
“Hungry? What time is it in the night? Didn’t she eat on the plane?”
Wrong move, Fiona was alarmed. This wasn’t how it was supposed to go. She stood up about to explain things to Judy but Emily pushed her back to the sofa gently.
“Relax, you don’t have to worry about a thing. I already told you I’ll prepare the meal for you,” Emily said to her.
This bitch! Fiona cursed. The woman was intentionally putting her in a tight corner and now Kai had misunderstood her as a selfish person. She should have known this woman was a sly fox. But Emily should watch out, she would outfox her.
Emily ignored the girl’s murderous gaze and turned to her handsome fiancé, “Would you please help me out in the kitchen, Judy?”
“Of course,” Judy was more than happy to help out.
Fiona almost fell from shock. She sprang up to her feet, “How could you ask the prince to do such a menial job?”
“Excuse me?”
“Prince Kai is a noble -“
