"Yurika, don't forget to rest. Tomorrow there is still a commercial set-up. I go home first" said Jenny, the manager.
Yurika lay down her body on the sofa of the hotel room while sighing deeply. Today he was so exhausted following the busy schedule of film promotions in several theaters from morning to night. Not had time to rest, the manager had reminded about his schedule tomorrow. His life is so limited by such a busy schedule. She could not enjoy her own life as an ordinary woman.
A bouquet of flowers from the fans filled the hotel's living room. There are also gift boxes, dolls, and letters that he got during the movie promo. Usually, everything he got would be partially donated to the orphanage, as his house would not contain enough of these items.
Yurika's eyes were fixed on a novel she had recently read. The novel Titled "The Elf Prince Finds Love" he got from one of his fans. He was interested to read it because it was the first time he got a different gift from his fans. Novel, a gift that he himself never crossed the idea of giving it to an idol. Yurika was swept away in the story of the novel she read.
At a dinner party, *Prince Adrian and Princess Hilda were present at the event. Their presence caught the attention of the elves present. Everyone agreed that the two were a compatible couple that the creator was destined to be together.
But their compatibility actually provokes certain parties who are jealous and want to separate the two. Anything is done to get rid of Princess Hilda from the Prince's side. Including that night, someone had the heart to put poison in Princess Hilda* drink*.
"Princess ... Wake up! Princesses!" Prince Adrian shaking Princess Hilda's body. "Who would dare to do this to Princess Hilda?" Prince Adrian took my wife with a panicked face. Princess Hilda was unconscious after drinking a drink that was thought to have been laced with poison. He was so angry that someone dared to harm his beloved wife.
Before falling unconscious, Princess Hilda complained of a headache. Shortly after drinking, he coughed up blood and immediately fainted. Everyone involved in the party that night was not allowed out before the culprit was caught. Ezra as the prince's personal bodyguard mobilizes all his soldiers to secure the place.
"Quick! Catch the one who dares to poison the Princess!" prince's orders.
The palace guards immediately held a sudden examination of all the people present at the party. Neither the guest of honor, the officials, nor the servant could escape the examination. Everyone who carried suspicious items would be separated from the others.
While waiting for the culprit to be found, the healer examined and treated the princess. Prince Adrian waited anxiously in front of the princess's room while watching the bodyguards still inspecting the people in the palace courtyard. *He will not forgive anyone who dares to disturb his happiness with Hilda.
Indeed, there is news that says that it seems like Princess Hilda will not be able to give birth to offspring. This will threaten the position of the prince when he will be appointed as a king. Many officials secretly wanted their daughter to replace Hilda. Prince Adrian who loved his wife very much, even willing to lose the throne just to maintain his beloved wife. As a result of a prince's love, Princess Hilda's life is in danger. Only by eliminating her would the other princess be able to stand a chance with the prince*.
"Prince! We found the culprit!"
Two guards dragged a servant in front of Prince Adrian. The woman's body looks thin with shabby clothes and a dull face exposed to ash from the fireplace. The woman cried trembling in fear face to face with the prince and was witnessed by many pairs of eyes.
Ezra smelled the scent of the powder. It turned out to be true, it smelled the same as what he smelled from Princess Hilda's drink. Ezra turned to the prince and gave the code that it was indeed the proof*.
"Your Majesty .. not me the culprit .. not me.. I do not know anything .. forgive me ...." The maid named Yuri prostrated herself before the Prince hoping to escape the charges. He really doesn't know anything. During the party, he only worked in the kitchen helping the main chef of the palace like the other maids according to his master's orders.
Yuri did not know why the powder pack was suddenly in her pocket. In fact, since morning he continued to be in the kitchen helping the palace chef prepare food. He did not meet Princess Hilda in person. How to poison?
"Law lures him in front of the general public! So that they all know that the person who is evil to the palace family will die!" prince's orders. As he said in his heart, he will not forgive anyone who commits a crime.
"Your Majesty .. I am completely innocent. It was not me who poisoned the Princess .. The real culprit is still in this room. Your Excellency .. lest you regret punishing the wrong person! You have to be fair!" Yuri continued to wriggle as she was dragged away by the bodyguards. He feels vilified and needs to get justice.
Prince Adrian could not tolerate the servant's actions. The evidence is very clear, criminals are unlikely to confess.
Meanwhile, one of the people who was there developed a wide smile after Yuri was captured. She was Asteria Rebecca, the person who had actually poisoned Princess Hilda. He deliberately scapegoated Yuri, his servant, so that he avoided punishment. Asteria is the strongest candidate who is predicted to replace the position of Princess Hilda.
"Huh! That's so sorry, waiter. Basic Aster elf curse! He sacrificed innocent people." Yurika cursed while reading a part of the novel that she considered quite emotionally draining.
Yuri is only a figure figure in the novel but the story is made tragic. From the beginning of the story Yuri is told to come from a poor family that requires him to work as a servant since the age of children. His body was thin and ugly-faced so that no man was interested in him.
"Why is my name the same as this character. Natasha ... Yuri. What a pity for Yuri's fate," murmured Yurika. "ah! But, my life like this is also no better than her. When do I have time to enjoy life. Huh ...." Recalling the schedule, it always made Yurika stressed.
He again entertained himself by continuing to read the novel in his hand. So engrossed in reading and dissolved in the story, Yurika finally fell asleep on the sofa with the novel still in her hands.
