Chapter 53 Chapter 53
Valerie pov .
I woke, But couldn't find Edward on the bed so I decided to take a shower and go check on him .
When I arrived at the dinning room ,I saw lady Alice laying on the ground ,I sat down and the maid started serving my breakfast .
" Edward what's going on "
" it's nothing have your breakfast "
" Why is lady Alice lying on the floor like a log of wood "
" It's nothing valerie ,she drunk poison "
" oh my God how ,when ,where "
" Too many questions at the same time dear just eat your food I will answer that later "
" I picked up my cultery and started eating , Suddenly samuel walked in with a sad face .
" Forgive me my lord but we have a problem "
I was very hungry so I continued eating my food without looking at them
" What could that be samuel "
" Lady morgan just arrived "
Suddenly the cultery on Edwards hand dropped to the ground making a loud sound that got everyone attention .I kept wondering what made edward to look shocked "
" Edward are you okay "
" Yes am it's just that an unwanted guest just arrived at the castle "
" Meaning "
" I will take care of it myself but please lady Valerie no matter what don't give up on me "
" Huh ,I will don't understand what he was talking about why was he saying I shouldn't give up on him , For the first time in my life i saw Edward sitting in a calm manner but I knew something was not right "
" Edward what's going on "
" hush listen ..."
"huh"
He placed his finger on my lips and asked me to listen .
" one ..two...thre..e"
Suddenly the door was open and a young lady ,beautiful beyond words walked into the dinning room .
" Edward "
She rushed up to him with a smile on her face .
" Lady morgan ,why are you here "
" Really is that the question you were suppose to ask me ,I have been through a lot because of you and here you are asking me what am doing here "
" It's a surprise to see you here "
" You abandoned me Edward you left me at the alter and ran away why ?"
Wait I really don't understand what's going on right now but this whole thing is becoming a joke ,what the hell is going on what does she mean by edward abandoning her at the alter , Wait am I dreaming I need some explanation .
I turned to look at Edward but he wasn't looking at me ,I was about to take a sip from my glass cup ,when I heard the young lady talking to me .
" You must be lady Valerie"
it took me a couple of minutes before I was able to answer her .
' Yes I am "
" Good then my guess was right '
" huh ?"
What was she talking about .
" Am back now Edward so I don't think there is any need for her in the castle she can leave now and I will make sure her family is well compensated "
I tried as much as I can to compose myself but emotionally I was in a mess .
" With all due respect my lady I really don't understand what you are talking about "
" Oh my Bad I will explain , You know am not used to talking with servants , But in your case I will have to break it down in a way you will understand , king Edward and I was dethroned to be together by his father before his death , may his soul rest in peace , His marriage to me will bring peace between Troy and Atlantis that is if you know what that means so this marriage is very important to edward the same way it's important to me .
I took a deep breath and looked at Edward but he didn't say anything instead he kept staring at me .
" Don't worry lady valerie I will take good care of him and besides he loved me ,I wouldn't what to tell you in details what we share ,the love making ,the climax it was good ,oh yes I forgot to let you in on an important to gist he was my first love too ."
My head was spinning ,I have never been humiliated to this extent before in life , i sat down quietly waiting for edward to say something ,but lady Tracy spoke up instead.
" Have some shame lady morgan , Even if not for yourself but for the little child in the room "
She turned to lady Tracy with a smile on her face .
" Oh hi lady Tracy how have you been it's been a while how can I forget you ,off course I can never forget you , you helped you brother escape the alter on our wedding day that was the most humiliating day of my life but am fine ,I hope edward wouldn't be mad at me "
" Lady morgan give up already Edward us getting married soon "
" I guess he will do that when am dead "
I was almost running mad , For christ sakes why was Edward silent why was he not saying anything .the next statement she made shocked me .
" Edward do you still want to get married to lady valerie here "
it took Edward few seconds to answer my question .
"No I don't want to marry her "
" Good I believe we are on the same page then "
" Do you still love her '
" No I don't love her "
When I heard what he just said my heart was shattered into a million piece ,I felt my whole world crumbling in front of me ,I quickly stood up and bowed my head to them .
" Thank you ...My..lord I had a wonderful time in the he castle if you don't mind permit me to go pack my things and leave "
" Off course lady valerie what are you waiting for Edward don't have any need for you anymore "
I didn't waste any more second in the dinning room ,I quickly rushed into my My chamber knelt on the ground and wept my eyes out ,I was confused it was just yesterday I confused my feelings to him and today he told me to my face that he doesn't love me .
Ella and Sophia rushed into my room
.
" My lady we heard what happened please don't leave I believe the king did it for reason "
" It's over ella I can't stay here anymore I have to go back to my family "
" My lady is not what you think lady morgan is a ...."
"If I were you I would mind my business servant"
We turned towards were the voice was coming from and we were shocked to see Edward in the room ,Ella and Sophia quickly bow there head and ran out of the room without saying a word , edward and I were left alone .
" What are doing here "
" Calm down valerie let explain "
" You have nothing to explain because you owe me no explanation please leave or should I leave the room for you "
" Listen to me val, I know you are anger with me but please let me explain something very important to you "
" Get out "
" Am sorry I said does things I said but please hear me out "
" No my sister was right ,I prayer this day never came the day you will push me aside and pretend we never existed "
" Listen to me it's not what you think"
" Get out Edward ,I regret ever confessing my feels for you.
