Chapter 17 Sudden announcement
Edwards pov
" Edward !!"
I wanted to stop and see who it was that was calling me but I was so pissed off what happened today .
" Edward ,for Zeus sake just stop "
" Tracy what is it "
" Really so you don't miss your sister or what , You were walking so fast for my liking infact I almost fell to ground "
" You are back so what "
" Come on Edward I know you are pissed off , But please can you be a little nice to your sister "
" Okay "
I tried to fake a smile for her .
" Hello sister how are you doing , It's good to have you back "
" Edward come on you can do better than that , And besides you are the king so just smile a little my dear brother "
" I believe you came to pick your son Randy "
" Oh yes ,I was thinking if he could spend another week here with you guys since am traveling tomorrow "
" No you have to take him home "
" Why Edward please don't sent him away "
I was about to reply her, When I felt someone holding my hand ,I look down to see who it was and my eyes met with his eye .
" Uncle so you don't want me around you anymore "
" No Randy it's just that the castle is not safe for you right now so please you have to go home okay "
" That's a lie uncle it's because you have found someone else to replace that witch aunty Benita "
" Randy you don't talk to your elders like that, Yes I know she messed up but you can't say such words about her "
" Uncle am saying the truth "
I tried stopping him from speaking, Because I know this little man here have a wide mouth just then his mother pulled him close to her .
' Randy can you tell me more about this new aunty I promise I will give you everything I brought for you please darling "
" You promise "
" Yes I promise "
" Okay "
He turned to me , And had a pity look on his face .
" Am sorry uncle , You know I like good things but I promise that after this one I wouldn't say a word again please "
I felt like crying , Why is this little guy always, know how to make me look like a fool I tried to make an eye contact with him but he just didn't want to bulge.
" Uncle why are blinking your eyes "
My sister turned to look at me .
" Yeah that's truth Edward I noticed you have been blinking, Do you have problem with your eyes "
" No "
" Good "
She turned back to Randy and brought out a chocolate in her bag than handed it over to him .
" Here you go boy, Please don't keep mother waiting tell me very thing "
" Okay mother ,it's just that this beautiful aunty is a servant working in the castle "
" Servant !! Okay this is becoming interesting tell me more dear "
" You see my handsome uncle here is madly in love with her , But I think he doesn't know that part yet but my uncle can't stay a day without her , But mother the beautiful aunty in question doesn't love your brother one bit "
" Haha tell me you are joking son because no woman on earth can reject a man as handsome as your uncle here "
" That's the funniest part of the story she even told him to his face that she has someone else "
" Oh my God that's strange , Tell what was your uncle reaction "
" Nothing much, That's why he has been pissed off since today if you had noticed "
I just stood there staring at this little creature in front of me , This little guy has practically sold me out even without me knowing , I was still thinking of what to do to this little guy in front of me when my sister spoke up .
" Edward is that truth , Don't tell me you have been rejected.. haha oh my God I think I love this part "
" Think what ever you like Tracy i don't care ,Infact I think I have important things to do other than standing here listening to you "
I walked closer to Randy he was now standing in front of me with a box chocolate in his hand .
" Randy my boy today you sold your uncle out to a stranger , What happened to us keeping each orders secrets "
" Am sorry uncle I couldn't resist the chocolate mother gave to me but I promise I will keep the next secret you tell me , Please can I stay for a little longer "
" No Randy you already told you mother everything so I don't think it's wise for you to stay since you just betrayed my trust"
Immediately I said does words he quickly removed the remaining chocolate from his mouth and handed it over to his mother .
" Mother please am sorry ,I never said anything to you please pretend you never heard anything "
" What Randy !How can you switch sides like that "
" Am sorry mother ,It was a mistake "
I Didn't even wait for him to apologize to me, I walked out on them because I had important things to attend to , When I finally arrived at the court room the Messenger announced my arrived they all stood up to greet ,then I signalled them to sir down .
" Sorry I was late I had something important to attend too please let the meeting begin "
They all started murmuring to themselves at that point I was tried of it so I decided to speak first .
" Are you all going to say something or should we end the meeting even before we begin "
" We are sorry Your majesty , But rumors has it that you are seeing a servant "
" What if I am seeing a servant , She's also a human like you "
" That's not what we are saying but your majesty you can't Marry a low class lady "
" What did you just say "
" Actually ...I..mean ...you . can't..marry a low class lady you see we want the best for you I think lady Benita is the best candidate for the queens position
.
" Say that one more time and I will cut off your tongue "
At that point they already pushed me to the wall and had to react ,
" Let me make this announce here and now by this time next two month I will have her has my wife and my queen if anyone dares to object to it that person will have his or her head hanging on a stick "
Immediately I made the announcement my mother screamed out her lungs .
