Chapter 237 Help Her
The woman left leaving Hazel stung with her words. She knew that she was not strong but she knew that she was a great actor. If not for the princess, she could have tried drama and the desire to destroy her family and let Rafael rule the land was never stronger.
She adjusted her look in the mirror and changed her makeup to a bold look. She was looking steamy and enchanting when she looked back at her reflection.
Satisfied with her looks, she left the room and walked towards Vincent’s room. She knocked the door a few times before getting a gurgling sound, a few curses then finally she was allowed to come in.
When she opened the door, Vincent was sitting at his office desk and checking some papers while a woman was sitting on the other side as if she was waiting for him to give her, his verdict.
Their clothes were perfect and it looked like they were working but when she walked closer, she could see the swollen lips of the girl with a fresh cut on them and her makeup was a bit smudged..
The woman raised her head and stared at Hazel with hostility.
“I was not expecting you to come and meet me when your husband had announced that you are going to spend the whole day in bed with him. What happened? Did you run out of energy or did he lose interest and go to find another girl?
Are you here to complain about it, sister?” why had she never realized that he was this crude.
“I am here because i want to discuss something with you but i do not need a company.” Hazel’s words only made the girl fume who was barely holding onto her patience.
She snapped as she stood up and glared upon at Hazel, “how rude, you came suddenly when I had taken the appointment and now you are asking me to leave. Have you learnt any manners of the nobles or are you habitual of behaving like monsters since you live with them.“ The woman crossed her hands in front of her chest and glared at Hazel with rage who only raised her brow.
“I never knew that family needed to make appointments, after all, my brother came to my room whenever he wanted. But if you are busy, I will leave.” Hazel pouted as she stared at Vincent with an aggrieved look.
This was how the girl used to behave too, right? He likes challenges olr did he like innocent girls who had no idea how this world worked. But the girl standing in front of her was looking experienced and interested.
It did not look like she was forced!
“Linda, don’t be too difficult. She is my guest and sister. She is my priority. How about I meet you tonight and we will settle the scores. I will make sure that no one would disturb us.” he looked at the woman named Linda with a suggestive look on her face whose sore face bloomed instantly.
She turned to look at him as if she was confirming that she had got it right when he nodded and took her hands. Kissing the back of her hands for more seconds than a formal gesture, he squeezed them gently in his hands when the woman smiled seductively.
Nodding her head, she finally looked appeased while Hazel felt nauseous. Just how foolish they thought she was to behave so openly in front of her.
She hid the disgust in her eyes as she looked away when the woman whispered something and stauntered out of the room.
Hazel continued to stare at the woman as if she was trying to remember her features and actions to find her later.
“I never thought that you would come to meet me on your own accord, sister. I thought that you do not like me. I am touched!” the words came from too close that all the hair of her nape stood up.
She could feel his soft breaths on her skin that disgust felt her eyes again but beneath that was fear. She knew that he was stronger than her, and if he wanted to force her, she would not be able to retaliate.
Even Lucian did not come to meet her today. If he would have been here, she would have felt more at ease. She did not realize when she had started to depend on him and rely on him for everything.
She slowly turned only to find him standing just an inch away from her. A single step and their bodies would be embarrassing to each other.
“I am here to settle the scores. I want to know what you have wanted from me!” she asked in a strict tone but her eyes were scanning his face and then slowly lowered to his body.
He noticed how she was checking him out and a smirk formed on his lips. In the end, she was nothing special than all those women who were enchanted by him.
He felt like she was just another trophy that he had won.
“Oh, you are taking my words too seriously. I just wanted to spend some good time getting to know my sister. I never realized that such a beautiful and kind girl was my sister all my life or I swore I would not have given you to a monster.
But if you want, I can take you back. I am sure that living there would have been a struggle. Living with those who look at you as food must have been harsh.
But you do not need to worry, I have a good place for you. You would be very happy while living there!” his hand reached for her and rested on her upper thighs while he smiled at her with a suggestive look in his eyes.
“If you want, I can talk to your father and annul your marriage. In exchange you have to just give a statement in front of the council.”
