Chapter 74: Full Of Suffocation
Though the maids and commoner staff were not offered treatment normally, it was an emergency. If not taken care of, the maids might die due to excessive bleeding.
Olivia gasped looking at their condition. She glared at Damon cursing him in her heart. Did he need to go to this extreme os that they could speak? He could have chosen a place to meet at night or something.
"We will return to the duke’s manor. I can not put their life in danger." The maids were on the verge of fainting. Hearing her worried words, they felt guilt and indebtedness in their heart.
"We can not do that." Damon frowned. "Your majesty had invited me. If I do not reach there on time, it would be an insult to the royal family. I will suffer severe punishment. The whole family might suffer with me." Olivia gritted her teeth. Her anger rose in her chest. What difference was there between Oriana and Damon? They both see others as only pawns.
"Then you go ahead. I will leave with maids." The knights had already cleaned the wounds of amides and wrapped bandages around their wounds.
Since they have participated in wars for a long time, they were well versed in immediate treatment. Their hands were moving with perfection that could only come with experience. Yet their hands halted and they stared at Olivia with a stunned gaze when she challenged Damon.
Their faces darkened. Did the lady think she could also command the lord just because she was the duchess’s sister? Their expressions soured immediately.
"Ha! Do you think you can leave as you please? You have no staff left. How would you return to the manor without our escort?"
"....." Olivia flinched under his cold voice and dark face. She could feel that it was not an act any more. He was as furious as she was! But what gave him to the right to be furious when he had used their lives for his act.
