Chapter 391: Akia’s terrible life.
Four women that would soon be more famous than anyone else in Eldoria gathered at a tavern named Lady Luck after leaving the royal castle. Lady Percival owned the tavern and she closed it for a while, to ensure complete privacy as the ladies had much to discuss.
Drinks were served and the ladies mulled around silently, none willing to speak up first. Duchess Crane and Lady Thistlebaum were still staring daggers at each other.
Duchess Crane thought Lady Thistlebaum was so bold and shameless. What right did she have to glare angrily as if she was the wronged party? She was the mistress here.
Lady Thistlebaum thought Duchess Crane was a bitch. She had used shady means to marry Lord Crane even though she was aware that his heart was not with her. What right did she have to act as if she was the most innocent party in the mess.
"The nerve of that crown princess." Lady Percival’s slammed a mug of heart fire wine on the table. It was her preferred brew when she was feeling angry. "I cannot believe that she has been spying on us."
"She is the crown princess, is it a surprise that she knows things she should not?" Miss Ashford was equally seething but she also knew what the reality was. The ruling house had means to know what was occurring in the noble houses.
Most used the information for politics. The crown princess was using it for entertainment.
Lady Crane focused on the small hole on the table, thinking about the consequences of what the crown princess had on her. How long had she known? Who else knew? Someone had brought the information to her so there was another or some others that knew this.
"When I get home, I am firing all my maids." Lady Thistlebaum said. "I feed and clothe them but they turn around and sell my secrets. Ungrateful bitches."
