“Good.” Lorenzo nodded.
Good? What did it mean good?
I was confused by Lorenzo’s words.
“Oh my goodness, Lady Monica, I am so sorry that my sister hurt you. She has always been such a bully. Please forgive her.”
Before I could react, Dorra hurriedly trotted towards Queen Mariana and Monica, apologizing.
“Don’t worry. Miss Dorra, I didn’t blame Isabella.” Monica uttered in a pitiful tone while wiping her tears with a laced napkin.
“Wow, are they putting on a show now?” Lara snorted in my head.
I rolled my eyes. They would never get tired of acting, huh?
“Isabella White! How could you do such a nasty thing?! Are you trying to murder Lady Monica? How dare you? Your Majesty, I am so sorry that we didn’t teach her well. We will be more than appreciative if you would teach her a lesson for us. She needs to get her punishment after doing such an awful thing.” Daisy cast a vicious glare at me and said to Queen Mariana.
Both Dorra and Lizz immediately nodded in agreement.
So they were now convicting me of attempting to murder? Wow, they would always surprise by how shameless they were.
“Your Majesty, Your Highness, you may not know that my sister, Isabella is an illegitimate child. My father and mother have been trying their best to teach her to be a nice person, but she is a mistress’s child after all. She may inherit some bad habits from...”
Slap!
Furious, I raised my hand and slapped Lizz hard on her face. “I don’t mind you talking bad about me as I don’t give a damn about your words. You are just like a clown to me. But don’t you ever slander my mother! We both know that your filthy mother is the real homewrecker. My mother was John White’s true mate!”
Lizz fell onto the ground because of my slap, weeping.
I looked down at her, “I am no longer the timid girl that you can bully at your wish. If you dare to say a word about my mother again, I won’t show you any mercy.”
I might look like a villain at the moment, but I didn’t care how might I look like in front of others as long as I could protect the ones I loved and cared. I had been timid and weak for so long that they believed that they would bully me forever.
“Isabella White! How dare you hurt Lizz?” Daisy stared dagger at me, raised her arm, and dashed toward me.
“Are you trying to attack my Luna?”
Before I could kick Daisy’s damn ass, Lorenzo grabbed her arm and threw her to the ground with his muscular arm. She was now lying on the ground, dumbfounded, with her stupid daughter.
“Why are you helping me?” I looked at Lorenzo, feeling confused. He had always hated me and been ignoring me for all these years. Why did he suddenly help me?
“I’ve told you that you’re mine and no one can bully my woman.” Lorenzo wrapped his arm around my waist, pulling me into his embrace, overbearingly.
What an arrogant and overbearing man!
I pushed him, trying to get rid of his strong arm on my waist.
“What a farce! Isabella White! Look at the mess you make!” Queen Mariana said angrily. “Enzo, the White Family is such a... crazy family. They will bring shame to the Palace sooner or later! And I won’t allow that! I will talk to your grandfather when he returns to the Palace. You must end your marriage with Isabella White. We will choose another proper lady to be your chosen mate!”
“Your Majesty, Isabella is the chosen mate that the King has picked for me,” Lorenzo uttered in a respectful but firm tone.
“He won’t consider Isabella White a suitable Luna as long as he sees her true face!” Queen Mariana snorted. “You deserve someone better, like Monica! Councilors, the pregnancy agreement doesn’t count. You don’t have to pass on that message to the Council.” She continued.
“Your Highness?” Mr. Brown turned to Lorenzo for confirmation. Lorenzo’s words seemed more powerful than Queen Mariana's. But that was understandable as Lorenzo had expanded the map of the Kingdom and made it a much bigger and a lot more powerful one through these years. Every tribe in the States was now under the Kingdom’s jurisdiction because of Lorenzo’s power and mightiness. He might not be a good mate, but he was truly a qualified Prince and future King.
However, that didn’t change my mind about ending our chosen mate relations as he was not the right one for me, nor was I the one for him.
“You can expect good news from Luna and me soon,” Lorenzo uttered in his deep and low voice.
“Oh my, what did he say, Bella?” Lara’s pitch-raising voice sounded in my head. She seemed startled. And so did I.
What was going on now? He hated me, didn’t he? Then what was he doing now?
“Now, excuse us, Luna and I still have something URGENT to do.”
As he finished his words, he lifted me in his arms and walked up the stairs.
My mind went blank for a few seconds.
“What urgent thing? I don’t have anything to do with you! Put me down!”
