Chapter 123 - 122. Making New Friends (1)
Grandfather seemed really angry at the new information that I had given them. I could see that if not for the fact that if not for my plan then he might have stormed the palace and strangled the Queen herself.
"I can understand that you must be tempted to..." I let the words hang in the air before I leaned ahead.
"But will you be satisfied if it all ends so quickly for her?" I asked and his jaw clenched.
"Then, please swallow this anger for now. I can take her down at any time but that won’t be her punishment, her punishment should be tenfolds of the suffering that she subjected over others. It should be a lesson for the future generations as well."
Grandfather closed his eyes for a moment as his whole body trembled and I stood up from my chair before crouching near his knees and reached out and placed my hands over his fist.
"I promise you that she will pay for what she did, Grandfather." I said but his eyes still stayed closed and I could feel his anger oozing out of his body as his murderous intent.
"Didn’t I fulfill my word about safely rescuing Grand Duke Alarice and Grand Duchess Dahlia?"
His eyelids slowly opened and he looked at me.
"I trust your ability, Reina. But it seems like there’s no limit to her evil. I... just hope that you won’t end up in any trouble because of her."
I smiled, "For that she has to know who I am and till the time that she realises that, I will be way past her reach."
He placed his hand over my smaller ones before sighing.
