Chapter 66: Care And Love
Not even an hour passed since Talia left the restaurant, but as she checked the stock market, she could see Northern Star’s stocks falling.
She checked the tabloids of Esteria to see the picture of her throwing wine at Prince Edward on the front page. There was even a short video clip - edited of course to make it seem like she poured wine at the Prince for no reason.
Some bold words caught her eyes like Wayward heiress, previously accused of murder, Royal Princess of Rosandale and so on.
She forced herself to not read any of those articles since she knew she would only be disheartened reading it. She is not that strong mentally and it would be better for her to avoid these kind of negative things.
Good thing she wasn’t in on any social media platform or else she’d be buried with hateful comments in her mentions. But as she expected as she browsed through she could see all those articles taken down one by one and the video was deleted.
’Wow! They are fast!’
Talia smiled to herself and she could see the stocks stabilising a bit. The value was still dropping, but the curve wasn’t so steep like before.
As she was about to lock her phone, she received a call and with a smile she picked up the call.
" Long Live Your Majesty! May you live for thousand years!" she spoke little louder and the cab driver looked at her through the rear view mirror in a weird way.
"Are you kidding me? What happened?" the deep voice from the other side was confrontational.
"Does the Dowager Queen know?" Talia asked in a lower voice.
