Chapter 412 Maybe she likes me?

"What did the Marquee Feldrik say?"

A man with black hair, green eyes, a thin nose, and a well-structured face was sitting on a lavish chair with a calm expression. He wore a White colored coat, with a golden-colored design and had an imposing aura.

He was Duke Thronton Fulvanius. The Strongest of all four Dukes, a great and overbearing leader, and the Duke who supports the First Prince.

"He agreed."

In front of him, stood his butler, the man he trusted the most out of all his servants.

"That is good."

The Duke smiled.

The Marquee's response was well within his plans, this placed a smile on his face.

The Duke preferred things to be under his control and to achieve that, he has sometimes taken extreme steps.

"What abou-"

The Duke wanted to ask about something else, however, suddenly, the doors of his room opened and a man walked in.

"Ho-"

The Butler was about the shout at the man who had just entered the Duke's room so rudely, however, before he could even say a word, his eyes fell on the man who just entered.

"Smith, leave."

The man who just entered ordered.

The Buttler, however, didn't dare to raise his voice at him.

He just bowed his head and turned his head towards the Duke. The Duke nodded, Smith, the butler nodded back, and then, he answered,

"As you say, Prince Raguel."

Smith then stood up and left the room.

"Grandfather, you need to know this."

As soon as Smith left, Raguel turned towards his Grandfather, Duke Fulvanius, and spoke.

Hearing his hurried and tensed voice, the Duke frowned.This text is © NôvelDrama/.Org.

"What happened?"

"I talked with Amaya."

"Amaya? That Cursed Consort?"

Duke Fulvanius guessed.

"Yes, I talked to her."

The Prince nodded.

"Why were you talking to that bitch?"

An annoyed look appeared on the Duke's face.

From his reaction, it was clear that he didn't have a good relationship with Amaya.

And that was true.

The Duke didn't like the Cursed Consort at all.

He had talked to her before, actually, he wanted to help her expand the Thousand Information Chamber, however, the woman rejected it.

He even offered to invest more money into the Chamber, however, he didn't even realize when the woman changed the topic and talked about an entirely different subject.

In the end, he had to leave that room with a disappointed look on his face.

He couldn't believe that the woman managed to manipulate him into talking about useless stuff and he only realized it after the meeting ended.

Thornton gets embarrassed every time he thinks about that day.

Amaya Skyfall was a woman who even he could not have control over and since he couldn't control that woman, he hated her.

Amaya, on the other hand, didn't even know that a Duke hates her so much, of course, she didn't care about it either. For her, it was just a normal, everyday meeting.

"Have you heard about the rumors?"

The First Prince questioned.

"About the Third Prince?"

The Duke questioned.

"Yes, about him becoming the Crown Prince."

"I have heard about it. However, these are just baseless rumors, I believe it is just their pathetic attempt to turn the situation in their favor.

They were the ones who spread the rumors, that is the reason why they spread so quickly.

Don't worry, baseless rumors like these do not remain for a long time. I think these rumors would disappear within a week or so."

The Duke just shrugged it off.

"Amaya has different thoughts about these matters."

Raguel replied.

"…"

The Duke turned silent.

If it was any other time, he would have just slammed the table in front of him and shouted,

'You think she is better than me!? If I said don't worry then don't worry. Her thoughts don't matter.

She is not always right!'

However, this time, he didn't say those words.

Too much was at stake here.

Deep down, he knew that Amaya won't say anything without a proper reason. If she said something, the chances of it being correct are very high.

Therefore,

"What did she say?"

The Duke questioned.

"Well, she didn't really clarify, however, she said my chances of becoming the King aren't very high."

The First Prince answered.

"Why did she say that?"

The Duke frowned.

"Does that mean that the King is actually thinking about making Lovis the Crown Prince?"

He questioned.

"She said that it doesn't matter what the King thinks."

"Huh? Is she out of her mind? Is the curse getting over her head? Is it affecting her?

Heh. Can't say that the bitch didn't deserve it."

A wicked smile appeared on the Duke's face.

"She said that I need to look into Duke Merula and Duke Vestalis. She was hinting that the two of them were collaborating with each other."

Raguel replied.

"Huh? Two Dukes collaborating? Don't be ridiculous!

Also, there is nothing to 'look into', I have already planted my spies in their Mansions, and nothing is happening between the two of them.

Don't worry."

The Duke snorted.

This time, however, Raguel wasn't silent.

"Grandfather, I need you to look into the Two Dukes, more thoroughly."

"I told you, I ha-"

"Grandpa, the stakes are high. Don't take unnecessary risks just because of your ego.

It is Consort Amaya we are talking about. You know perfectly well what kind of woman she is.

And about her Curse affecting her head, trust me, I had a talk with her, and there is nothing wrong with her.

She is as scary as the mother told her, even scarier maybe.

Actually, she looks so sharp that for a moment, I thought that this 'Curse' is all a façade."

Hearing those words, the Duke turned silent.

After thinking about it a little, he realized that his Grandson was right.

He shouldn't take unnecessary risks.

"Alright, I will look into it."

"Mhm."

The Prince nodded.

"But I still don't understand, why is that Cursed Bitch helping you?"

The Prince shook his head and joked,

"I don't know,

Maybe she likes me?"
