Chapter 221: Plotting to have his child (3)
"Princess, like many others you misunderstand my plans with Xavier. I might have thought we would be good together as a married couple but I knew for a long time that wasn’t what Xavier wanted. We used each other for fun," Vivienne said, smiling once more.
She had let Morgana get the best of her but never again. Vivienne wouldn’t be laughed at by a woman who couldn’t get Xavier to notice her.
"Since Xavier is far out of your reach now he is married, who have you decided to give your time to? Darius," Vivienne looked at her husband. "You must help your sister pick a good man. Isn’t it about time she is with someone instead of chasing after a married man?"
"Surely you know from experience that marriage means nothing for our kind. It is simply a little promise we make to be at someone’s side for a lifetime. I can go after Xavier as much as I like but I am certain you would like if I don’t," said Morgana.
Vivienne regretted coming here. As old as the princess was, Morgana had a special way of acting like a child and Vivienne wasn’t in the mood for it. She needed to find out who would be the next woman to join Juliana at Darius’s side.
"I don’t know what you speak of. I have come here to speak with your brother alone so if you don’t mind, it is time you leave," Vivienne said, ignoring Morgana’s accusation.
Morgana sat down, showing that she wasn’t ready to leave. "I am not going anywhere. Where is my precious niece? I do not see her at your side ever. Do you not love her?"
"I love my daughter more than anything in this world-"
"Yet you are never at her side as a maid raises her. You do know a woman can take the throne right? If only her mother would show her a little bit more attention but then again, I have always heard your mother never had time for you. Should I care for your daughter?" Morgana asked Darius.
