Alexander Castle


Noble families, even the people in the city of Cambridge in a scene over the arrest of Mrs Alexander related to a plot to kill her own son-in-law Leona Lewstin. That week, all the gossip surrounding the Alexander family, both among the nobles when they gathered together, even in the palace, the gossip was widespread among the middle-class people in the city of Cambridge.


"I wouldn't be satisfied if the old woman was only in jail for a few years, she had to get the consequences when she was dealing with the Lewstin family." Furious Lewstin said. He called one of his crew to go to Alexander's mansion.


"Go to the mansion of my son-in-law Edmund, tell him. I want to have dinner with both of them."


"Good captain."

That day Laura visited Leona's residence, she was worried about him, after hearing the information about the rumors circulating, she wanted to comfort Leona, she said, perhaps he was sad because Edmund's mother had the heart to take his life.


"Laura." A bright smile emanated on Leona's face, she waved her hand to Laura. There was no sad or disappointed face on Leona's face even she smiled very pretty.


"You're coming? Thank you Laura, all your help made me more confident and not desperate, when I was sad and down. I'm glad to be back in Cambridge again and see you."


"Isn't that a natural thing that friends do, so don't ever hesitate to ask me for help." They talked for a long time in the park. Leona and Laura enjoy their time together.


"You're okay, Leona, I mean you must be sad about everything that's happened." Leona.


"Hm, not really. I feel relieved now. Those who tried to finish me off have been arrested."


"It doesn't seem like everything, Leona. Sofia's still on the loose, you know how the girl's wrath was when Edmund left, when they'll be making their wedding vows soon. Erm according to what I heard, Alexander and Ridle's family tried for the second time to marry Edmund and Sofia, but once again Edmund left just like that, even she said something that made Miss Sofia furious. I'm afraid that woman wants to do something to you."


"Don't worry, whatever he's gonna do I'm ready to deal with it."


***


The Ridles were there when Mrs Alexander's arrest took place. Sofia looked at him while crossing her arms around his chest.


"I won't let you be happy, if arresting Mrs Alexander makes you think everything will be happy, you're wrong, I won't let that happen." The woman went back into her carriage. He had been waiting for Leona to return to Cambridge. Somehow he'll make them both regret his actions.


***


That day early in the morning Edmund went to the palace to do his work. He was just about to board the train by Leona to the front of the gate. Sofia Ridle was there.


"Edmund? You coming?"


They both turned around, Edmund did not get on the train. He stood beside Leona.


"I didn't know you had come Edmund, I had been waiting for you for a long time, because Leona had come, what if we had a little chat, someone wanted to


I'm telling you both."


"Tell me here, don't try to plan something dirty, or you'll regret it." Edmund said coldly.


Leona folded her hands and looked at the woman. "What do you want to say." Sofia's face looked down, she walked over to Edmund.


"Can we talk together first?" Her speech.


"Edmund's not going anywhere snake woman, you're a female frog. Tell me, what do you want to say, don't convolve. I'm sick of pretending in front of you, a woman like you wouldn't understand a warning."


He growled loudly. "I'm pregnant with Edmund." Her speech.


"Keep what if you're pregnant." Edmund.


"Do you think we've ever spent the night together? You're crazy, yeah, I never even touched you. You drunk? If you want to know who the father of your son is, you have to ask the men you sleep with every party." Edmund was furious.


Edmund grunts. "Are you dreaming? I told you I never even touched you, that night when you were drunk after the party, you probably spent your night with some guy who offered to take you when you tried to stick to me. And are you crazy it happened 6 years ago." Edmund was angry.


Leona stared in disdain at him without trying to cover it up. "But Edmund didn't you promise me that if I waited for you you would eventually come back to me."


"This crazy woman is completely insane." Leona muttered.


"What did you say."


"I said you're not sane. Why are you so lowly, don't you have any shame? you're a noble princess, but why are you begging such a pathetic person to bring up a past that never happened? you think your plan will work to hurt me? just because of your dirty past?" Leona said sharply.


"You !" He tried to slap Leona, but of course Leona who was taller than him could fend him off.


"Until when did you become this pathetic girl? stop bothering people's husbands, seek your own happiness. Stop straying the happiness of others. If you don't change, only envy, hate and heartache remain in you. Time will go on and that's all you keep doing, your age won't be young anymore, and age will catch you, when you regret it when you're old, then it's too late. This is just my advice. Go ! and don't bother Edmund anymore. If you're still trying to bother her, you're gonna face me, I'm gonna cut all your hair bald, so you stop bothering people's husbands. Know it? it's a tradition in my village. And I'll do that to you, you understand."


Sofia gaped at Leona's long sentence, without saying anything she then left, and her plan to make Leona jealous failed.


"Good advice, baby, you're great." Edmund hugged his wife before he got on the train. "I'll be back before afternoon." He waved his hand.


"Ugh. I no longer want to deal with that woman or Alexander's family." Sofia walks alone in the city of Cambridge and it looks like Leona's words are a bit attached to her memory.


Time will go on and that's all you keep doing, your age won't be young anymore, and age will catch you, when you regret it when you're old, then it's too late.


"The woman's ugh is good at talking too."


***


That afternoon the messenger from Leona's father came. So they should get ready to attend and have dinner together. Luxury restaurant located in the middle of the city of Cambridge look stunning. Edmund's chariot stopped and they both got off the horse-drawn carriage.


Edmund and Leona look harmonious and very charming. The few nobles who ate there gave short nods and sometimes reprimanded the two of them.


"Please come with us, sir, this way." Said a servant to them both taking them to a more private place. The waiter stopped at a special golden door with a flower decoration as the motif.


"Please enter Mr and Madam. Mr. Lewstin has been waiting inside." They both went in. Captain Lewstin had been sitting there in his formal attire, although now his shirt looked messy as he was already unfamiliar with shirts and suits.


"Finally you come too, sit down." Leona and Edmund sat down.


"How are you, Leona, you must have been through a lot." Her speech. Leona shrugged her shoulders.


"Mm, yes I experienced it all, but it was all I considered a lesson to me, and it all made us stronger in defending my household." Leona said as she looked at Edmund who was smiling at her.


"Ah, well now you're very good at talking and nagging, Leona. You look like someone I know. Said Mr. Lewstin.


"In the near future, all the food in this restaurant I've ordered for you, you can eat as much as you can." Not long after all the menus are presented on the table, the type of Western food and seafood food was delicious.


Leona was interested in her seafood, she tasted it, without her expecting it she then covered her mouth like she wanted to vomit, she quickly took her handkerchief in the bag, and closed her nose. The smell was very stinging nose, so Leona wanted to vomit again. At that moment they both turned around. Edmund held onto Leona and lowered his face wanting to see her.


"Leona are you sick?" Her speech.


Leona shook her head. "Ugh I hate the smell."


Lewstin watched Leona and called out to the person outside the room. "Call the doctor right now.


"Good captain."


After waiting for a few minutes the doctor came, while Leona was away from all the food and lay in the break room. After the doctor examined Leona. A smile spread across his face.


"Congratulations Mr. Alexander, your wife is pregnant. Her age is only a week. Congratulations again." As Edmund approached Leona with a face of disbelief, he then hugged her and gave a kiss on her face. Captain Lewstin was silent and stiff, hearing that he had a grandson soon left him dumbstruck. At the age that is now not young anymore and at any time death can pick him up make himself touched, because he can still see his daughter and can also look forward to the presence of his grandson who will be born in this world.
