Two Faced Princess
Chapters 10
Catherine recalled the warm gaze that Gaius gave her before the banquet began.
“Petra no commotion what is this?”
The King did not even heed Catherine's screams and directly asked Petra.
“Lady Loenheim wounded Her Highness the Princess, Her Majesty the King. The reason for that was because I did not treat her like an empress.”
Hearing that the King raised his eyebrows.
“No Your Honor this is all a misunderstanding.”
“It is a great crime to injure or bleed a member of His Royal Highness. Not only did He dare to touch the Princess but also a servant. It's obvious this isn't a misunderstanding.”
Catherine's little hope that the King would side with her was dashed when she saw Gaius nodding at Petra's words.
“Truely it is indeed a great crime”
The King's words shocked Catherine like lightning.
“What punishment fits yes?”
The King asked Petra with an expressionless face, very different from a few days ago when he declared his love for Catherine.
“He who dared to challenge the royal family has no place in this kingdom. As appropriate He should be expelled by His Majesty the King himself”
“No punishment it's less exact”
“Your Highness it's a punishment that berbihan”
Hearing the words of King Catherine wept and her hopes dwindled. The next word made him despair.
“Dignifying the Princess and trying ‘standing on it’ is already a great crime. But we can't let the person who has hurt him”
“Catherine Loenheim will be deposed. And after three days...”.
The ‘helper'(allied) Queen gulped her saliva. They are thinking of going forward or backward.
“Fail him”
Silence enveloped the entire banquet hall after hearing the king's words. Catherine lost her composure and slowly fainted. The allies looked at each other before finally retreating. They immediately decided to vanish from the sight of the King.
“Please turn on the music back”
The Musicians were already flooded with sweat but they still followed the King's orders.
The cheerful music that was playing could not mask the aura of fear of the guests. Guests spend the rest of the night drinking to hide their fear.
And with that the feast was finished
………………
The banquet of the day left a strong impression for the guests present.Everyone present witnessed for themselves the ability and power of Petra Liefer. His calmness and elegance had absolutely no impact on his cruelty.
But there are also guests who do not understand the situation that day and try to meet the queen of ‘low class’.
But they instantly understood the situation when they saw Catherine being dragged out.
The message from His Majesty the King is clear. From now on the Liefer family was the only one in power in the royal family. Anyone who tries to argue will not be forgiven.
The next night, Gaius sat in the study waiting for someone to come. Even at the age of four he still looks young because of his wrinkled face.
His tall stature, dark black hair, and of course Gaius' golden eyes signify he is a native descendant of the Leifer family. With a look like this to some they were like wolves, but not only did Gaius attract the attention of the young queens but also the palace servants.
“Your Majesty apparently you are here”
All Gaius Petra's invitations entered the library politely. Gaius hints at the waiter to give Petra a seat.
“It's cold, wear warm clothes”ucap Petra. Her black hair was tied backwards as usual. Golden eyes just like Petra's Gaius shone brightly.
“I'm fine.Worry to yourself”
Petra sighed then poured a cup of tea for Gaius.
“Then at least eat a warm meal”
Although Petra was known to lack affection and kindness, she was gentle with Gaius, her only brother.
“Have you heard what happened to Viscount Loenheim?”
