Chapter 128: Attitude Changes Like Chameleon Changes Colour
Talia was calm watching Senator Campbell who was sticking like a shadow behind Prince Lambert getting shocked to his core, hearing the tone his wife used in front of the Prince.
His re-election prospects were already low if his party allowed him to run in the upcoming election. So he had used his Campbell name, as he is a descendant of the prominent Campbell family of Rosandale, to get close to the Prince and helped negotiate a big trade deal between the two nations.
He spent a lot of time with the Prince during the discussion and could understand his moods a bit even though the Prince has a poker face.
But now, even he could understand the Prince is mad. He tried to signal his wife to apologise but she just rolled her eyes at him.
Who is this woman his wife now called a ’wench’? Could this be the Princess who is supposed to attend the luncheon?
But this is the woman his future daughter-in-law likes to make fun of - Natalie the wretched orphan!
"Lambert," Talia with her back straight walked to him and greeted him with kiss in the cheek. "I just announced my plan to sue Mr. Peter Campbell," Talia said with a gentle smile and gracefully took a couple of steps back.
Lambert with his eyes sharp as a panther, looked at her for a couple of seconds with his hand on her shoulder and without a word, looked at Mr. Ed.
As Mr. Ed explained the happenings at her office lobby, Talia noticed his hands fisting to a ball.
Rebecca’s mother-in-law and Mrs. Campbell were confused as to what was happening and this little disturbance did not go unnoticed by the other guests in the room and everyone started mumbling among themselves.
Mr. Campbell was glaring angrily at his wife who shrugged without understanding the bind she had put him in. He had already started to perspire.
