Chapter 18 : The rude crown prince

"Lady Elle, do you want another cup?" Mia inquires.

Crystelle is drinking her afternoon tea right now. It's such a tranquil day when the grand duke isn't around due to his duties at the palace.

"This tranquil day has lasted two days without a conflict and has caused me to cry and leap with excitement." "It's so serene all of a sudden," Crystelle thought.

Crystelle gives Mia a kind grin.

"With pleasure, madam Siel," she says, laughing.

Mia smiles.

' Don't tease me, my lady. Because we haven't married yet, my last name is still Lloyd, correct, Mia?

Crystelle laughs.

"It must be great for you to marry out of love," Crystelle added.

Mia tilted her head.

"Don't you become engaged to the first prince out of love, my lady?" Mia responds.

Crystelle gently shakes her head and then shakes her hand towards Mia.

"Bend down a little, Mia," Crystelle says quietly.

Mia obeys without hesitation.

'This is a well-guarded secret, Mia. 'I'll just tell you, so keep it a secret,' Crystelle says quietly.

Mia simply nodded.

'I... became engaged to him merely to save myself from a bad future with the crown prince... truly, it's just a contract relationship between us,' she says. And we agreed on a rule that if we find someone we genuinely love, we may dissolve the engagement immediately,' Crystelle explained.

Mia is taken aback.

"My lady!" "You use him?" Mia wondered.

Crystelle shook her head.

"It's not like that, but we agreed on one condition: the abilities we each had."

Crystelle smiled as she pondered.

'Erm... so it's kind of like we balance each other out? Because of the powers, it's a win-win situation for us.' Crystelle spoke without hesitation.

Mia was taken aback.

"But what if you fall in love with him?" Or if he does? Mia wonders.

Crystelle laughs.

"I will not!" "And if he does, we'll just end the engagement since it violates the rules we agreed on," says Crystelle.

"We had already addressed this subject in the palace," Crystelle added.

Mia shakes her head.

"Feelings can't be controlled, Lady Elle. '

Mia lets out a sigh.

"Love it, it's just like a monster. Even if you don't want it, it will torment you until you lose control of your actions, my lady. Mia, nag.

Crystelle smiles.

' I know. That's why I'd been so cautious up until now. I'll create that magnificent creature in the same manner as my golden card. If I have any difficulties, I will merely employ him to solve them.' Crystelle stated confidently.

Mia lets out a sigh.

"I'm sure you'll regret what you just said to me, my lady," Mia predicted.

Crystelle scowls.

"No, I am not!" and I shall not!" she stated confidently.

Mia makes a happy face.

"Oh, you are, my lady," Mia acknowledged.

Crystelle feels irritated.

'Don't agree with me so quickly!' You sound as though you're cursing me! I'm not going to! 'Forever and ever!' Crystelle was furious.

Mia bursts out laughing.

"If you desire, lovely lady, I would say you aren't." Tease Mia even more.

Crystelle becomes enraged.

' Mia! you..! '

'All right, all right... You appear to be having a nice time since you dumped me.' Greetings to some voices.

Crystelle, who was irritated because of Mia, was shocked and quickly reacted by getting up from her seat in disbelief.

'Wait!..what?,..why..." thought Crystelle, puzzled. She is confused and doesn't know what to do.

That boy who greeted her so abruptly seemed to be the same age as Crystelle's smirk.

'Are you so shocked after meeting your fiance that you, yourself, abandoned her?' asks that boy angrily.

'Pard, please forgive me, your highness the crown prince! Greetings to the Ophelia Empire's shining star! Crystelle Elera la Soleil is at your service.' When Crystelle greets the royal prince, she is terrified. She makes a deep bow to cover her face.

"It appears that you were already aware of your fault, Lady Soleil." mock the crown prince.

Crystelle shakes.

"Please forgive me, your highness." So what brought you all the way here to the Soleil residence without any previous notice? Ask Crystelle, who is trembling but attempting to remain cool in front of the crown prince.

"Hah." smirked the crown prince.

"Did you mean I wasn't permitted to step foot here, Lady Soleil?" "Didn't I get to come here as often as I wanted before going to study abroad?" asks the crown prince angrily.

Crystelle shivers.

'I apologize, your highness. Nevertheless, you are no longer my future fiance. I am now the first prince's fiancée, and thus you have no right to return here without prior permission, your highness. Crystelle answered bravely, her gaze fixed on his eyes.

' What can you even do to me? 'I had the emperor on my side!' Crystelle expressed her thoughts confidently.

The crown prince's face had turned bright crimson. He has a scowl on his face.

'What exactly did you say?' The crown prince trembles. He tries to contain his rage.

'I mentioned that the first prince is now my fiance; therefore, you no longer have the right to see the Soleil resident as you wish, your highness.' Crystelle's firm stated

'You, you bitch!' said the crown prince.

' Ouchh! What are you doing!? 'Your highness!' cries Crystelle.

The crown prince grabs Crystelle's hair and clenches it fiercely.

' Kyah! and "My lady!' said Mia, who had been standing nearby the entire time.

Crystelle cast a glance towards Mia.

"Do not pull yourself into this!" Crystelle murmurs.

Mia was astonished and shook her head before fleeing to call for aid.

Crystelle frowns to keep the aching at bay.

'Who do you think you are?" exclaims the crown prince.

'I am Airel Harold de Seraphina Ophelia, Crown Prince!' You are only the daughter of a duke! ' With my power, I can expel your family whenever I want!' Crown Prince Airel exclaims.

Crystelle's head became dizzy as a result of him pulling her hair.

'Let me go, your highness!' cries Crystelle as she attempts to separate the crown prince's hand from her hair.

'You are my fiancée!' You dare to abandon me while I'm gone, and on top of that, you've found yourself a new lover! Please don't make me laugh! 'I've had you since we were born!" you yell at him once again.

Crystelle trembles as her leg weakens.

She collapses on the ground.

Crystelle tightens her fist.

"That was before we were even born!" I have the right to end our engagement if I don't like it! Did you challenge the emperor's edict about our engagement, your highness? Crystelle yells loudly.

Pang!

Crystelle's head became increasingly dizzy, and her cheeks throbbed uncontrollably!

Crown Prince Airel slapped her across the face like a lunatic!

'You dare to disrespect me in this way! 'I'll make sure you pay for it!" said Crown Prince Airel.

Crystelle feels a heavy flood suffocate her mouth.

"BL, blood!" exclaims Crystelle.

Crystelle was silent as she trembled on the ground.

"This is too much!" Crystelle said in her thinking.

' Arghh! With this personality of yours, do you think I will blindly get married to you? Did you believe any girl could endure it and still love you wholeheartedly? Please don't make me laugh! You were born to die alone! You should be ashamed! The crown prince? hah! You do not even deserve that title! you..! 'I'll make sure you plead for my pardon on my feet!' said Crystelle.

Crystelle murmurs.

"If I can say it out loud, it will satisfy me, but if I do, it will cause significant diplomatic issues between my house and the royalty." "For the time being, I'll just bear it as it has always been," Crystelle thought as she clenched her hand fiercely.

Airel, the Crown Prince, grins.

'What made you go silent like that? Had you given up on your engagement because of that sh*t? You like him a lot more than I do. just go and fu*k with him then! ' mock him.

Crystelle is frozen.

'This kid! He makes me want to hit him in the s*tty face! only once! Even if I die tomorrow, I can be pleased with only one thing.' Crystelle thought as her whole body trembled.

Dang!

' Urghh! ' Crystelle clutches her stomach.

"That hurts like hell when he kicks me in the stomach!" "Such a jerk!" Crystelle shakes.

He always wounded me in places where no one could see. This cowardly jerk It's been a long time since he did something like this to me before leaving to study abroad. That hurts like hell now that I think about it all.

Crystelle's physique has grown extremely weak as a result of crown prince Airel's kick. She begins to pant, and her body trembles violently.

'This trash! I was a girl, and he dared to treat me like a boy me like a boy! 'My body can't handle it any longer!' Crystelle clenched her teeth to keep the aching from spreading throughout her body.

'Please help!' groans Crystelle on the ground.

She had been lying like a body on the verge of becoming a corpse.

' Help...please.. ' . groan once again. wish for someone to come to her rescue.
