Chapter 61
"It’s a pretty day for sailing. Your big mouth got you removed from your position, didn’t it?" Finn questioned, biting into the red shiny apple that seemed much sweeter thanks to what he was watching now. "Tell me, when was it that you fucked it all up?"
"Go away," Lucy said, annoyed by his constant chatter.
Lucy had no choice but to start packing. It would take a long time for a letter to be sent to the king and to get a response. Hopefully, by the time she returned home, the king would give her the order to return here to finish what she started.
"It was right when he was leaving, wasn’t it? You couldn’t ignore that he hasn’t been speaking to you about anything concerning his personal affairs. You should have taken my advice to forget about that list and stop being jealous. It’s not like you are ugly to not find a husband," said Finn.
"Well, there is the fact that you don’t know how to stop being a soldier and not talk about your work so some might find you boring. I’m a soldier and I get bored speaking to you sometimes since I don’t always want to be talking about this work. Maybe-"
"Would you please stop talking?" Lucy begged. She was at her limit with the advice he was trying to give her. She did not need it. "I know that it must be fun for you to see me leaving but please, go somewhere else to entertain yourself. I want to leave in peace."
Finn remained where he stood. "No, you want to leave without hearing how you messed this up for yourself. If you would have stopped being so bothered about a woman he is with when he does not belong to you then you wouldn’t be leaving now."
"Your father is not going to be pleased. You know that right?"
Lucy stopped packing her things. "My father is the very one who made it important that I come back with good news for him. Of course, I know that I will face his anger and disappointment."
