Chapter 76 Chapter 76
Valerie pov ...
I Waited for Bethel to return, But she didn't so I decided to go look for her . When I arrived at her chamber ,I met her packing her bags .
" Bethel where are you going "
" Home sister "
" Why? All of a sudden You decided to leave at least , You should have discussed it with me first "
" Don't worry sister I just remembered that I had to do something important "
" Something like what, Talk to me what's going on why are you leaving "
" Sister it's nothing ,okay "
"Wait did Edward say anything to you "
" No he didn't "
" I don't understand what's going on right now ,We were having a conversation and the next thing my husband called you for a private talk only for you to come out and start packing your thing "
She stopped packing and burst into tears .
" Oh my God what wrong with you Bethel why are you crying "
" I don't know why your husband sees me as threat ,I did nothing wrong I know I said harsh words to you but I can never hurt my sister ,I only wanted to stay by your side , But look at the way his majesty is treating me ,He even threatened to kill me if anything happens to you "
" Oh my God Bethel you mean my husband said that to you "
" Yes he did ,I tried my best to let him know that I can never hurt you ,I love you Valerie , Tell me Valerie please tell me Do you believe I can kill you '
" Off course not , You are my sister , My flesh and blood , Why would Edward think that , Don't worry I will talk to him about it "
" Please do ,I just want to stay here a little, Beside you are my sister and the one I love is here please help me talk to him "
" I will go talk to him and get back to you right away you don't have to pack your bags , Please unpack this things am going to talk to him right away "
I quickly rushed out of her room , And went in search of Edward, Samuel told me that Edward was in his study room and went upstairs to meet him .
I knocked on the door twice before opening it .
" Edward !!"
" Hey love come here ,I missed you so much "
He dragged me closer to himself and placed a kiss on my lips ,I couldn't resist it anymore , All the anger I felt in side of me melted immediately he kissed my lips ,I really don't know how long we kissed, But I couldn't get a enough of him ,one thing lead to another ,We were lost in a heated love making session .
I was so exhausted, That I couldn't move a muscle , I laid down on the couch with my head on Edwards chest ,I was busy listening to his heart beat when suddenly I remembered why I came over to see him .
" Edward "
" Huh"
" What happened between you and Bethel "
" Nothing happened "
I raised my head up to look at his face .
" Don't tell Me nothing happened Edward why did you ask her to leave "
" Oh she told you already , What a conniving fox "
" Who are calling a conniving fox Edward "
" Your sister off course , Listen to me valerie, Bethel is not as good as you think don't be fooled by her fake kindness "
" Come on Edward people change ,I think she has realised her mistakes"
" For a person like Bethel , They only realise there mistakes when they are dead "
" What do you mean by that "
" Have you had an encounter with an obsessed person before , Am not talking about myself "
" That God you know you are obsessed with me '
" Yes I am but in a good way , Am talking about a mentally obsessed person ,he or she is not fit to be around people "
" What are implying ,Are you trying to say my sister is obsessed with you "
" Yes Bethel is obsessed with me , But she doesn't know that yet , Trust me when I say she can take out anyone who try to stand in her way "
" Edward you are talking about my sister here ,I know she had said some stupid thing to me , But Bethel I know won't harm me "
" Do you think so "
" Yes I know so "
" Don't be stupid my love , Your loved one can be your enemy in a twinkle of an eye , All because of money ,power and fame , You are navie and innocent ,I kept wondering how you have survived in this world all this years '
" I Agree with you on that but please can you let her stay for while "
" I can't she might cause more harm than good "
" Just This once I promise she wouldn't do anything stupid "
He stood up from the couch and started dressing up , Then turned to look at me with a smile on his face .
" Get dress My lady we are expecting an important visitor very soon "
" Who could that be "
" Lady hazel is coming back today "
" Huh ..you mean Queen hazel , Why what happened did you lift off the band you placed on her "
" Lady Tracy begged me to bring her back that she has been sick for a while now , Note she not coming back as the Queen mother , She's coming back here as a commoner who needs assistance from me "
" Edward I don't think it's good idea ,"
" Same as I don't think it's a good idea for your sister to stay here "
I Quickly got up from the couch , And got dress. Edward held my hand , And we walked out of his study room , When we arrived at the entrance of the castle a black carriage was packed in front if the castle , Edward ordered them to open the carriage .
The guards opened it and helped a old Haggard looking lady come down from the carriage ,I was wondering who it was , But when I looked closely to my greatest surprise it was Queen hazel .
" Oh God Edward what happened to her "
" That's what you get when you try to disobey orders , She was sold to a slave trade , With My connection I was able to buy her out "
" Wait so you mean , She will be staying here as your servant "
" Yes ,she is here as my slave , How has the might fallen "
The guards dragged her to knee in front of Edward , When she raised her head to see who it was she was shocked to see Edward and I standing in front if her .
" Long time ,No see mother "
