Chapter 91: Marked by evil
The flames continued to crackle; Evelyn dropped the tea on top of the small coffee table before Abrielle. "Here is your tea, Princess Abrielle? Lunch will be ready shortly, and also, the seamstress will be here to see you in the evening concerning your dress for the victory banquet." Evelyn eagerly explained to Abrielle.
The tea was poured into her cup and then presented to Abrielle; she was lucky in fact, she still had all the host memories, so she didn’t have to worry about her etiquette. "Would you like some milk or want it bland?" Evelyn asked.
"I love it sweet and creamy," Abrielle answered; she had a little sweet tooth. Evelyn nodded and then made her the cup of tea before handing over the saucer and teacup to the princess, who accepted it.
"The tea is refreshing," she complimented, taking a sniff of the black tea riched with Milk and sugar. "Glad it’s up to your taste, here are some sweets. I didn’t know you would if you prefer sandwiches or pastries, so I got the kitchen to prepare a full afternoon tea set. Please, I would love your feedback to be able to serve you better." Evelyn explained.
The more Abrielle knew Evelyn, the more she actually admired her strict personality; she was dedicated to her task and was a wonderful maid, except for the fact that she was loyal to only Cedric and his second-strongest elite.
"Thank you. I will give you feedback and inform me once lunch is ready." Abrielle answered, Evelyn knew this was her cue to leave the room. She gave a bow and then left Abrielle with the foreign woman.
The door was shut before Abrielle opened her mouth; she was not certain if Cedric had his spies watching her or not, but she did know that she needed an ally here.
Even if Zoltana turned out not to be the hermit witch she was going to make Zoltana and the other girl jubilee her own people.
Her eyes then trailed to the lady with golden-toned tanned skin and Silver eyes. Her hair was chocolate brown in colour, and Zoltana’s exquisite features made her striking and have a sexy appeal.
"You are Zoltana if I am not mistaken." Abrielle asked, and Zoltana bowed her head, "Yes, your Highness. Zoltana Bari from the Drizari clan." Zoltana introduced herself.
"So that’s the actual name of the wandering clan," Abrielle mentioned. "Yes, unfortunately, a lot of people call us that. Please, how may I help Your Highness? " Zoltana asked as she took her time to observe the princess.
"You can have a seat," Zoltana was a bit hesitant about sharing a seat with the princess but she followed the instructions given to her.
