Favored Empress Brings Chaos and Destruction (Book 1)

Page 106

Prince Anders looked at the surroundings and when he is sure that no one is around, he spoke in a very low voice, almost a whisper...

"Beatrix, the quadruplets are not my children." He told her.

"What?!!" Beatrix exclaimed and even stood up but went back to sitting again. "Are you sure?" She asked further.

"Yes, I initially got suspicious because Lady Anne gave birth two months ahead of time blaming it as the result of too much pressure resulting in premature labor. My suspicion got stronger because none of the quadruplets looks like me or Lady Anne so I secretly conducted a paternity test and I discovered that they were not my children." He explained seriously.

"That is a serious problem. The children are innocent... What is your plan?" She worriedly asked.

"I want to expose her and the tricks her family did for her to marry into the imperial family and let her children be viewed as imperial members. Truly unforgivable and disgusting! To be honest, I do not love Lady Anne so it does not matter to me what happens to her but the children are innocent..." He sadly expressed his feelings.

"I understand. If you expose her and her family's deception, the children will be executed together with her and the entire Smith family." She agreed.

"I do not know anymore, Beatrix. I am torn between wanting her and the Smith family to pay and preserving the lives of four innocent children. This is Imperial Brother's fault! If he did not help in framing me, I will not be in this messy situation! He is too much! Beatrix, you should be careful with him! Do not trust him! He did not even consider our blood relationship. How much more with other people? My Imperial Brother is ruthless enough to break all the rules and heartless enough to do all kinds of underhanded means. If I were you, I will keep my distance as much as possible." He reached for her hand and smoothly knead it.

"Yes, that is what I am doing." She agreed.

He smiled and held Beatrix's other hand and warmly caress her hands with his own while saying...

"Always remember, Beatrix, I am always here for you! You can trust me..."

The day after that interaction with Prince Anders, Beatrix was shocked when she saw unfamiliar faces! All of the servants and guards in Crown Prince Andrew's Mansion were replaced!

"What happened to the previous servants and guards?" Beatrix curiously asked.

"His Highness terminated their services. We are now the new servants and guards in His Highness, Crown Prince Andrew's Mansion. We are here to properly serve and guard, Her Highness, Crown Princess Beatrix!" The new butler said.

"Why? I want the previous servants and guards! I am already used to them!" She complained but all of the new servants and guards kneeled. They almost kiss the ground as they begged her to accept them.

"Her Highness, the previous servants and guards can no longer return. We beg you to accept us or else..." The new butler spoke on behalf of all the new servants and guards.

Beatrix sighed and finally understood... The next days are very troublesome for her because wherever she goes, the new servants are always following her. When she tried to dismiss them, they told her that they are just following the crown prince's order so they continued following her...

What the heck!!!

They watch all of her movements and know her whereabouts! They will only leave her alone inside her bedroom but they will surround her room like she is a convict trying to escape and do serious crimes! They will only loosen a little when their master is with her!

She tried to complain to him but he just told her that she will get used to the new setup and just ignore the servants and continue doing what she normally does... But can you do what you normally do with so many eyes watching every move you make, every breath you take?

Because of this suffocating situation, Beatrix wants to go out and do some shopping to release her tension. She does not need to ask for money from her husband because she had lots of it! Being the Great General's only child and Prime Minister's only grandchild has many great advantages and having lots of money is one of them!

She is prepared to go out and shop 'til she drops but the guards won't let her out! Yes! The guards won't let her out without Crown Prince Andrew's approval! Thanks to her annoying husband, her tedious preparations are wasted!

She tried threats but it did not work! She tried bribing but it did not work! She tried escaping but it did not work!

Even mosquitoes cannot get in or out of his prison... Opps!!! I mean mansion...

She angrily thought as she waited for him to come home this time. She felt more angry and annoyed when it took longer for him to go home than usual!

Of all the time to be so late to come home, why now?!! Is he doing this on purpose?!!

She thought angrily while waiting for his arrival...
