Chapter 73: His Fault, Not Mine
Vishiea’s POV
If they are actually telling the truth then why did they only come here? It's been three months. If he's actually sick or dying like what they are talking about, why only now?
“We will not leave here until you come with us. Please Lady Anastasia, the king needs you. You are the only hope we have. Please help the king recover” the man said.
“Anastasia, your decision matters. It's about life. But just like what I am always saying. It's up to you.” Aunt Kennedy said.
I already decided before to end everything that's between us. I force myself to forget all the past just to move on. Now that I decided to leave a life without him, without the past, without thinking about what they did to me.
And about Rachelle. I was surprised to hear that she was exiled. Since Darius and I talked I decided not to meddle with his life, their life. I ended up getting information about them. That's why I couldn't believe that Rachelle was exiled from the palace.
I couldn't believe Rachelle used dark magic on the king.
It could be that it's the reason why Darius is dying just like what the palace guard said?
“Lady Anastasia, please come with us, you'll find out that we are not lying.” The man said.
“And who are you exactly? What if you only made up stories?” Dylan asked him. The man stepped forward and looked at me.
“Lady Anastasia, I am the king’s trusted men. My name is Adam. Please trust me Lady Anastasia, The king is dying and he needs you.” He uttered. He showed a badge proving that he's actually from the palace.
“Auntie, I think I should find out what they are actually up to. “ I told Aunt Kennedy. She smiled and nodded her head.
I should know if they are actually telling the truth. This is the least I can do if the king is actually dying.
I don't know what exactly happened to him and Rachelle but one thing I know for sure is that Rachelle had bad intentions towards the palace and to the king.
If she was exiled then where is she now? Did the former king find out about what happened? Why did he do it? Did he punish his former Daughter-in-law?
If she used dark magic on Darius then there’s a punishment should serve on her. Being exiled wasn't enough; she should be punished according to the rule she violated.
But what if they are not actually telling the truth? What if they just made up all of this? If Rachelle found out about this I’m sure she’ll be furious.
“If you're decided I will support you” Aunt Kennedy said. She is always supportive of things I want to do and that is exactly what I always like about her.
Instead of contradicting me she's always there to support me. If I did something wrong she's always there to help and guide me.
“But Aunt Kennedy, we're not sure. What if they are lying? Anastasia, are you really sure about this?” Dylan asked me. I turned to face him.
I know he's only worried about me. He knows what I’ve been through in that palace in the hands of the former king and Darius. He knows that I was in too much pain for how many years, that's why I understand him.
He never left me and he’s always there to cheer me up. That's why he had the right to question the palace guard. But I think I should find out what exactly happened to him. To end this.
“It's fine, I will be alright. Besides I am stronger than them if they thought of hurting me. Dylan, I will leave everything to you for the meantime. Cynthia will help you. I’ll be back as soon as possible. Aunt Kennedy, please stay safe always.” I told them. Dylan just looked away and couldn't accept my decision.
“I will help them, don't worry,” Cynthia smiled.
I let out a deep sigh and looked at Aunt Kennedy.
“Auntie, I’ll be back” I told them.
“Rita, prepared Anastasia’s things. She will go back to the palace “ Aunt Kennedy's ordered Rita our maid. She immediately nodded and followed the instructions.
“I will come, if I found you lying each of you right now will receive the hardest punishment from me” I told them they all bowed.
“Thank you Lady Anastasia,” Adam said.
The maid went out of the room and handed me my things. The palace guard immediately carried them.
“Take care Anastasia, be back here as soon as possible. Don't worry I will help them with your business “ Aunt Kennedy uttered. I smiled and I knew she would do that.
“Take care Anastasia,” Cynthia hugged me. I nod my head at her.
“Go back here as soon as possible, don't let the king brainwash you. He would do anything just to make you stay. Don't just believe whatever you see,” Dylan said. I only smiled as.a response.
“I have to go now,” I hugged them and we started walking out.
“Make sure that you are not Lying Adam. Because If I find out you are not telling the truth you're dead and I really mean it” I told him. I saw him gulp as he was helping me get inside the car.
I once glanced at my place before we left.
If this is your game Darius then better stop it. I always warned you before. It's hard to trust when you already betrayed me.
“Thank you Lady Anastasia, the king is not in a good condition today. He’s dying and maybe you can help him” Adam said but I didn't say a word.
It's not actually my responsibility to help him but here I am on my way there feeling deceived but I still want to know the truth.
“I won't stay there for too long. If he wants help, I can't give him that. It's better to call a doctor to cure him than calling me “ I told him and he couldn't say a word.
If this is actually what he wants then I will give him another chance but if he lied then it's not my fault it's his.
