Chapter 72: He Needs You
Vishea’s POV
“What?” I was surprised. It's been four months. What are the Royal guards doing here?
What does that mean? Aunt Kennedy held my hand. She looked worried.
“The palace guard? You mean what?” Cynthia asked surprisingly. I looked at the guard and he nodded his head.
“Could this be the king who wants to talk to you again?” Aunt Kennedy asked me. I shook my head. We already done talking what does he want from me again? I thought we already fixed things but he's trying to messed with me again.
“What does he want? Are you sure it's only the royal guard?” I asked him. He nodded his head.
“Yes, madam. They are asking for you. It seems like it's urgent” he said. My forehead knotted, confused. What's with the scene?
“Anastasia, you can just send them away if you want. But if you also want to find out why they went here then that's totally fine.” Aunt Kennedy told me. I looked at her and she gave me a warm smile.
But I don't know what to do. Should I really need to go there? How about if I don't I know they won't leave and stop until they could talk to me.
Four months had passed and I thought he would never bother me again but here he is sending his guards to cause trouble.
I smiled to Aunt Kennedy. If I don't do this he will only make matters worse.
“It's fine Auntie. I’ll just talk to them to find out why they came here.” I told her. She agreed. We walked out of the room.
However while walking through the gate, I still couldn't stop thinking why he sent his guards here.
When will he stop bothering me? Why can't he just tell me what he wants?
“Lady Anastasia,” the guards were outside the gate. I asked them to open it.
“We apologize for bothering you Lady Anastasia. But we are here to convince you to come with us to the palace, "the man in black uniform said.
“What's happening here?” Dylan arrived and asked Cynthia. Even Cynthia didn't know what was actually happening.
“I think the Palace guard was asking Anastasia to come with them. I think it's the King’s order that's what I had heard” I heard Cyntha told him.
“What does the king want from her again?” he uttered. The man looked at me.
“Why would I come with you?” I asked the man. He looked at me with an expression like he's going to say something bad news.
“Lady Anastasia, the king is in bad condition –” The man started but was interrupted by Dylan as he step forward standing beside me.
What did he mean in bad condition? Are they doing this to convince me again with their scene?
“Enough, don't bother to talk to her. She's not interested in whatever you want her to do or say.” Dylan said, talking to him. I let out a deep sigh.
Is this another game by the king?
“Pardon, we are talking to Lady Anastasia. We are asking for your cooperation. The king needs you. He's dying” after the man said that my eyes widened.
“What?!” Cynthia exclaimed. He's dying? No, they can't fool me. What the hell is wrong with them? They always have the king's back.
“Do you really think she would believe you? Anastasia won't come with you. Tell the king that he can't fool us!” Dylan said. I looked at him, this is the first time I’ve seen him like this.
“Dylan, let them talk. Then Anastasia will decide” Aunt Kennedy uttered. She smiled at me.
Why is Darius doing this? What exactly does he wants from me again?
“Lady Anastasia, we are asking you to come with us. Please. Grant the King's wish. He's dying” the man said and bowed to me.
“Lady Anastasia, we are asking you to grant the king's wish” the palace guard said and bowed their heads.
Damn it! What should I do?
“Lady Anastasia, the king's only last wish to see you. We are begging you. Grant the king's wish” the man said and bowed again.
“We are asking you, please grant the king’s wish” they repeated.
“Why are you talking to me? The king had been engaged to his fiancée. You should talk to her. She's the king future queen and she has the right to take care of her” I told them. They both look at each other which confused me.
“We apologize for the disturbance to Lady Anastasia, but the king insisted that you should see him. The king's fiancée has long gone.” The man said. My forehead knotted because of what he said.
“The King’s fiancée? What happened to her?” Cynthia uttered while looking at them.
“Is there something we didn't know from the palace? How could you say she is long gone?” Aunt Kennedy asked them.
“Maybe this is all part of their plan again. To confuse you Anastasia. You know the king and this is all part of their paln” Dylan said but was interrupted by the man.
“We risk our lives right now if we are lying” he said and kneeled on the ground. The palace guard followed him.
Damn it! Aunt Kennedy held my hand.
“You don't have to kneel. If the king is looking for someone who can take care of him then It’s his fiancée responsible not me. Please don't bother me with this kind of stuff because The king and I have nothing to do with each other” I told the man. They all stood up.
I looked at them and they seemed really serious about their business.
“The king’s fiancée was exiled because of using dark magic on the king. She is no longer allowed to enter the palace Lady Anastasia “ he said. My eyes widened because of what he said.
“What? You mean the king and his fiancée broke up?” Cynthia asked him.
“Yes, madam. The king is no longer with his former fiancée. Please lady Anastasia, come with us. The king is dying and he needs you” he told me.
Damn it. Are they really telling the truth?
