Chapter 211: Frustrating
Evangeline Sterling stared at her phone for the hundredth time, tapping her perfectly manicured nails as she waited for the man who was supposed to be here ten minutes ago. Most people had enough common sense to arrive earlier than the allotted time and wait for her.
She was a royal, not some peasant that the man dared to make her wait.
Just then, her assistant brought a cell phone to the table and Evangeline glared at it then the assistant," If I wanted to talk to him, I would have answered his call myself."
The assistant shrugged apologetically while trying to hand the phone to her, " I cannot refuse him..."
As she was about to refuse, the voice from the loudspeaker spoke, "Take the phone my little princess. Don’t make things difficult for your assistant. It is not her fault."
Evangeline frowned and took the phone, taking it off the speaker as she put it to her ear," I am not happy with this. You are responsible for my suffering, you know."
Alexander Sterling clucked his tongue and coaxed his daughter," Come on, child. You are good at negotiating as well as the only one I can trust with this task."
Evangeline looked at her nails and then lowered her voice," But I don’t understand why she needs to be here. You and I both want her gone but yet you insist on pulling this farce...to make her stay here.
Alexander Sterling shook his head and frowned," We need to do this not to make her stay here but to make sure that she does not try to take the throne that does not belong to her."
