Chapter 37: Eavesdropping: Catching The Culprit [Bonus - ]
************
Chapter 37
Immediately after leaving their brunch, Era wasted no time and hurried to go meet Aeverie. By the time she arrived there, she met Aeverie bent forward, sticking her head out to check what was going on inside the stables.
Era did not know whether she was to laugh or cry. Was this her lady royal’s way of spying on someone? She wasn’t being discrete about it and just spied in the open.
Letting out a deep breath, she sighed and shook her head before folding her hands on her arms and standing like a parent who was about scolding a child.
"And I never knew you lack quality skills in spying on someone," Era called out but not loud enough for others to hear.
Immediately Aeverie heard her voice, she jumped out of shock and withdrew only to turn around and see that the person who spoke was Era.
"Your majesty... You scared the life out of me," Aeverie said, with her hands clutching at her chest.
"Did I? How about being caught red handed by someone else let’s say I ask you to spy on the lady Diona, what would you do when she catches you eaves dropping?"
"It is not like that your majesty." Sigh! She shook her heard before making her way to where she was. "Your majesty, you..." She paused. Let out another sigh before speaking. "You do not want me being caught, now do you?"
"You..." Era paused with a pleasant smile on her face. She could not get angry at her. It wasn’t like she was angry in the first place.
"Oh Aeverie, alright, let’s not bicker around about the same old thing. Now, what news have you for me?"
