Favored Empress Brings Chaos and Destruction (Book 2)

Page 262

Perfect! If she wants to have a good time then it would be my pleasure to grant her wish...

Prince Andrew smirked and then used his signature whistle to summon his high-skilled men to appear. He gave several instructions and different tasks for the execution of his grand punishment. After that, he dismissed them and they left in a blink of an eye!

Princess Dinah was very excited that night. She paid a huge amount of money to convince the new male servant to do her bidding. If everything went according to her plan... Prince Andrew might learn to love her or at least treat her better because they shared a very passionate night. Not only that, she would get pregnant and give birth to an imperial child after nine months. Then, her position as an Imperial Princess and future Empress will become stable, especially if she gives birth to a son... Her son could become the next emperor of Sky Empire! But, if the child turns out to be a daughter, she will arrange for her daughter's marriage to Cloud Empire's crown prince! She will also try again so she could give birth to a son. When the time comes, she and her maiden family will gain more power, connection, influence, and wealth! All of those wonderful things will be hers if everything went according to her plan...

The male servant took a long time to arrive and she could not wait any longer! She decided to go to her husband's bedroom earlier through the secret passage but to her dismay, the solid wall in her bedroom which also serves as a secret door to access the hidden tunnel would not even budge!

What happened?!! Is it stuck?!! Why now?!! Did someone discover it?!! No... No... Impossible!!! I have been very careful!!!

She angrily wailed inside her heart and tried harder but she could not move the solid wall again like last time. Without another choice, she waited for the male servant's report again but to her surprise, it was the butler who arrived and politely informed her that Prince Andrew asked for her to enter his courtyard immediately!

What is happening is very different from my original plan... Did he find out my scheme?!! Is he planning to punish me severely now?!! Is that why he asked for my presence inside his courtyard?!!

She became very alarmed and afraid for a moment but she thought deeper and consider another scenario...

If that is the case... why he did not storm my place instead to punish me? I am just overthinking! It is more like he already consumed the sobering soup and the effect of the strong aphrodisiac is already kicking in... That must be the reason he is asking for my presence in the wee hours of the morning!!!

With this thought in her mind, she composed herself and tried to act normal when she asked the butler for more details...

"Why is His Highness asking for my presence?" She asked in a very innocent and calm tone but deep inside, her heart is beating wildly in extreme excitement and anticipation.

"This humble servant does not know. I am just here to escort Her Highness to His Highness' presence." The butler responded politely and then he elegantly motioned for her to follow him.

She scowled when she saw the butler's behavior! It is not disrespecting her but also not giving her face! She decided to let it pass this time because she could not wait any longer! She wants to become his true wife! She prepared for this wonderful moment for a very long time and she would never let a lowly servant ruin her happiness! She put on a calm expression to mask her true intention and followed the butler and the other servants to her husband's courtyard...

She frowned when they arrived in a clearing instead but she immediately returned to her calm expression when she saw that Prince Andrew seems to be waiting for her. He is sitting on an elegant wooden chair, in front of a long elegant wooden table. The table and the sumptuous meal on it were illuminated by seven artistic candelabras. She nimbly approached and politely greet him.

He nodded and then a servant helped her sit on the other end of the long table. Her worried feeling increased when she realized that he is already sampling the delicious meal but on her side of the table, there is only one bowl of sobering soup! Her heart suddenly lurched when she finally figure out what is happening!

"Your Highness, what is this?" She still feigned innocence.

"It is your share... You cannot distinguish reality from fantasy. You seemed more intoxicated than me so you need that to sober up!" He replied without any emotion then smirked.

"Your Highness, I do not understand what you mean..." She seemed confused on the surface but her heart beats even faster as she had an idea that he already know about her ploy! She continued her acting... She does not want to confess!

"You will know what I mean once you drink the sobering soup that you spiked!" He said in a very cold and dangerous tone.
