Villainess Becomes The Knight

Chapter 32 - The Contrast In Behavior



"Your highness" Suddenly there was a light knock on the door.

"In." Listening to the sound of crispy hemp, I dare not make any ripples because of the cold and heartless inside.

A man in Knight's uniform came in quietly, kneeling on one knee and respectfully saying, "your royal highness, there is an emergency call from the brothel, your presence is required."

The hands that were freely moving stopped, and the playful eyes that were filled with lust hardened. For a moment it felt like the person who was sitting there with me had completely disappeared and a cold and ruthless man had taken its place.

I blinked to look closely when he moved and smiled.

"Take rest my love, my concubine is calling me. I have to go" with that he stood up and left the room. The knight that had come to take him, gave me a look and left behind him.

I just stood there baffled looking at their retreating figures when my stomach grumbled.

"My lady, would you like to eat now or later?" asked the maid with the tight corset.

"Now would be fine." I said with a serene expression and she bent down making the view of cleavage more clear.

"On a second note, I would like to meet my sister first." i added, as her view was killing all my hunger.

"Please come with me, my lady" she replied and started walking out.

When I came out of the room, I saw Beth standing there like a guard in the corner. I wanted to give her my two cents, that she left me alone, but I let it go.

"Beth, do you know something about father?"

"My lady, your grace has left a message that there is an emergency in the knight's manor, so he may take time to return. you both stay with her royal highness or can leave for the duke palace with the knights came with us and he will return later" she replied bowing and i nodded.

'So daddy did not know that we are not with Josephine anymore and I was in the chamber of Williams, and this emergency.. Isn't it too coincidental.'

"Alright, since father has allowed it, we will go home first." I replied that there was nothing much left to do, for now all I had to do was to convince Noah to act a bit with me, in case William sees us together or try to confirm my life later.

They both bowed and we started walking again. The whole area hardly had any knights, which was surprising. Shouldn't a prince chamber be guarded well.

I didn't even see enough servants, which again was a strange thing.

I could hear the sound of music from the distance as we continued to walk in the grand halls. She stood in front of a large door that was closed. It was truly majestic and grand. The door was carved with the sign of an eagle with open wings, the symbol of our empire, empire Veristia. The biggest empire of the all three empires in the continent with Forchestier on the second and Wunsunstan at the last level.

The two guards that were standing on both sides bowed and opened the door. When i entered all the girls sitting there were looking at me with bright smiles and dazed eyes but soon their smiles turned stiff and dazed eyes were filled with venom. They sat back at their booths with a sour face.

'Ah, they must be waiting for their philanderer, too bad, he was already gone to the brothel' I smiled instead of looking at them and walked in.

Isabella was sitting there with a girl, I did not know. I walked towards her and stood in front of her.

"Isabella, we need to go back to the Essendson's palace, come with me." she looked at me and then continued chatting.

"Are you coming or shall i take the carriage back home?" I asked and she finally cracked.

"You can not do that, it is for both of us. And I am waiting for the crown prince, how could I go without bidding her goodbye." she announced as if William was waiting for her bidding with all his heart and soul.

"Oh, is that so? But I heard that he went to his personal brothel, that is in his personal estate. If you want to meet him so desperately, I can ask the coachman to stop there for you and I can go home then ``I replied with a serious face and nodded my head.

She took 3 seconds to analyse my words but did not say anything so i added,

"Or if you want i can ask her royal highness to come and entertain you for awhile.'' I added and she finally stood up.

"I am going to stay here, waiting for his royal highness to come back" she announced and I nodded.

"Very well, the hope he could lend you his knights to escort you home." With that I walked out.

I did not spare a single glance to the stage where the actors were reciting their lines and melodious music was being played in the background.

I walked straight out of the area and entered in my carriage.

"We shall go back to the palace" I instructed and the man nodded and started the carriage.

In the whole journey I kept thinking about my encounter with William. I thought that I knew him. He was nothing more than a spoiled, playboy who only had leisure and girls in his mind.. But then those sharp and cold eyes! Why would a person be so worried when he was called to the brothel! Should he not be happy about it?!
