Chapter 116
“…Could it be that Your Highness is telling Your Majesty about this?”
Just in time, Celestine asked with her worried face her.Even though it was a formal engagement, she did not seem to trust her future husband at all.Annette, who saw this, responded with her light laugh.
“It won't be. Even if you can't be on my side, you won't be able to tell my father either.”
“How can you be so sure, Annette? Is it because he's Your Highness's childhood friend? Do you know him well?”
“Well, there might be something like that…… If you tell me about this, I'm really going to die. I bet you wouldn't gamble with my life. For that, His Highness Ludwig is too kind.”
Annette lowered her eyelashes as if it was not a big deal and explained why.Celestine's eyes widened at those surprising words her.
“What are you talking about now, Annette? Your life was at stake?”
“Did I tell you? It's my family's new doctor who recently joined. It turned out that His Majesty planted him.”
“I beg your pardon? Are you going to plant people in someone else's mansion now?”
“Yes. They told me to poison me for a long time. That's how you slowly deteriorated your health, and in the end, get sick and die.”
Celestine froze as the bombs exploded in Annette's mouth her her.The truth was so great that I had nothing to say.The first thing she uttered before long, after losing her face and smiling at her, was unexpectedly worried.
“Are you okay?! So you're not really poisoned? Somehow, the complexion hasn't been good lately! Maybe I like this!! Could it be that your fingertips are cold right now because you ate poison?!”
Celestine, her butt her half lifted from the carriage seat, restlessly massaged Annette's hand her Annette's eyes widened at the warmth Then Annette, with a friendly eye smile, shook her head.
“I'm fine, Celestine. I didn't even eat poison in the first place. Besides, as soon as I noticed it, I immediately went to the most famous specialist in Deltium to completely decipher it.”
“Oh my gosh!! How could I do this to you? Hasn't His Majesty seen you since you were very young? Rumor has it that she is the daughter-in-law of the future and treats her like a daughter!! It's not even disgusting!!”
“Calm down, Celestine. It is already past.”
“What happened in the past!! How far is His Majesty going to go?! If I pushed you out of the crown princess in the first place, it would be enough!! Why the hell do I even have to poison him!! !”
Celestine spewed fire from her mouth, saying that this was nonsense. She looked agitated, just like her own real sister had been beaten. Seeing this, Annette covered her mouth and smiled softly. A lot of that too.
“Actually, there is something to be said for that part as well. Celestine.”
Aside from her crush on Celestine, Annette's eyes her sunk As she said, since Annette had already been ousted from her throne her, there was no need for her king her her to try to kill her.
'It's a really strange thing.'
What the hell is the king up to? If Annette and Lapel's relationship improves, is Lapel afraid of coming under the power of the family? With blue-blooded Bayern behind, Rafel would have dared to aim for the throne. High.
Even if the king was concerned about that, it was still premature. It was because Allamand was holding out with his eyes open as the head of the Bavaria family. It was a fact known to everyone in Deltium that he, a blood supremacist, hated Annette could not exert any power over Lapel without his permission. This was the saddest thing about being an outsider.
'It's true that my father hates Lapel.'
Annette sighed inwardly. Perhaps the king is pleased with this. So now he didn't have to lay a hand on Annette. However, after he planted Eucalyptus as his personal doctor, he must have aimed at the right time while slowly injecting poison into Annette. Just like it was in his previous life.
” As soon as I return home, I will interrogate my doctor again. I'll let you know when I find out something new. So, Celestine, if you hear anything new from Her Highness her, please let me know .”
“Of course, Annette. Please take good care of your health. We are compromised in the same boat. Please do not get sick and stay by my side for a long time.”
Celestine, holding Annette's hands tightly, whispered with her green eyes shining.The hand of her was so warm that Annette unconsciously lowered her eyes and smiled.
Suddenly, I thought I had done well to come back to life.
* * *
After seeing Celestine and arriving at his house Her, Annette opened his eyes wide.It was because Rafel was out to meet her at her front door.He had often been hanging around the porch lately when Annette was out.Owner to return.
Rafel's face was expressionless as he brushed his black hair and gazed indifferently into the darkness. Even though he was obviously wearing the best clothes and well-groomed like a noble, there was an unknown wild beauty. Maybe that's why Annette's heart skipped a beat she felt the dangerous charm of her.
“Lapel?”
Before he could even call his name his, Rafel, who felt the presence of him, turned around. When he found her, his face suddenly brightened with a feeling of digging. The dangerous man who had been pacing the door until just now disappeared somewhere , and a handsome man was looking at him with a smile on his face.
Seeing this, Annette unknownly laughed along. Then, as if trying to hide the corner of her mouth that was out of my control, Lapel rubbed his cheek her with one of her hands her. Lately, when he was standing in front of Annette, His expression became haggard.
“Come. I was waiting for you just in time.”
“Why? What's going on?”
Annette tilted her head and asked back.Then, at the right time, good news flowed from Rafel's mouth.
“Your doctor who put you in prison said he would confess.
“Hmm.”
Annette shrugged her shoulders at Eucalyptus' declaration of confession, which was faster than expected. He was so brave when he poisoned others, but it seemed that he was nervous about poisoning himself. Seeing as I couldn't hold on for more days than two .It couldn't have been more ironic.
Anyway, it was good that Eucalyptus would confess. Annette thought that maybe he would hear something new he didn't know. Blinking, Annette looked up at Lapel and asked.
“Are you going to listen too?”
“Of course. I've been waiting for you for that.”
Rafel's eyebrows twitched as if he had no intention of leaving him out. Seeing this, Annette quickly took him by the hand and dragged him inside. Before Lapel sighed again, he had hit the ball quickly.
Fortunately, when her hand his touched it, Lapel's disgruntled eyebrows returned to their original position. He silently gripped Annette's hand her tighter. As if you'd never let go again. The dungeon holding his hand her was not as dark or cold as before .It was really strange.
Annette went downstairs and soon found a eucalyptus hanging from a barn.
“Lady…”
Her eucalyptus her with a mug of her fly her her called her trembling.It was truly a pitiful disgrace.Instead of answering, Annette rolled her eyes and noticed vomit marks on one side of the cell. He could not stand it and tried to drink the water.
A graceful contempt appeared on Annette's lips when she saw this. He himself had eaten that poison for five years in his previous life, but the eucalyptus only lasted a few days.
Annette calmly sat down on the chair in front of the grate. Then Lapel naturally stood beside her as if she were her black panther her guarding her her. Eucalyptus' eyes trembled at the sight of Annette, who looked like a queen with an escape. Anyway, Annette began interrogating her in a nonchalant tone.
“I heard you have something to say to me,” She said.
“Madam, I have really committed a mortal sin. It didn't work… I am in no position to disobey His Majesty's orders…… I am sincerely sorry. Please forgive me.”
Tears flowed down Eucalyptus 'eyes Her Lapel gritted his teeth at the sight of her admitting to the poisoning Her Judging from the way his tight muscles Her contracted, he seemed eager to jump out and tear the eucalyptus apart .
Annette, who calmed Lapel by gently caring the back of her hand, continued to ask questions.
“I see. It was also ordered by His Majesty. Do you know, by any chance, why he tried to kill me?”
“I-I don't know. Lady. How could he tell a simple member like me about such an important matter? I just followed what he was told. I have never heard of a reason.”
“Isn't it? Your Majesty has been trying to poison me for a long time. So he must have told you why you need a long-term poison. That way you'll effectively poison me. Am I wrong?”
“No, madam. I really don't know anything. I would have only done what His Majesty told me to do…… Madam, Madam!!!”
Annette rose from her seat as if she didn't deserve to hear more. If Eucalyptus wasn't willing to tell the truth, she had no reason to waste any more time here. Even if she really didn't know anything about her. Then her eucalyptus turned to her and called out hastily to her.
