"And here I thought that I should help her in getting rid of her useless husband who only condemned her!" Diana flinched at her cold words.
"How could you talk about your father like that in front of your mother.? Have you forgotten who we are completely?" Raged by her words, Diana raised her hand but was immediately stopped by Hazel in mid way who held her hands without any remorse.
"I can not believe that you are asking me that!! Mother and father? Aren't you ashamed of that!
Weren't you the one who told me that you are not my mother? Even if that would be the case, would I have never tried to hurt you if you would not have been trying to kill me all this time?
Let me stay alive? Was it such a difficult thing for you that you keep planning attacks on me?
And now that you know that I would attack back, you are trying to play an emotional card with me! How ruthless?
Do you take me as a fool who would still believe in your words after suffering for so long?" Hazel jerked the hands away she was holding so tightly to as she stared at her so called mother with disgust!
"Are you not ashamed to call me your daughter when the room is still filled with the mercenaries you have sent to kill me?" she added as she felt Diana staring at her with disbelief.
"Just what is making you so shocked? That I am still alive to face you or that I am not pretending anymore that we have a cordial relationship?" Diana trembled, her whole body shook like a dry leaf that was thrown in the strong winds.
Her eyes were turned red yet she did not have a single reply to any question that Hazel had asked her.
She had thought that she would be successful this time since she had hired the whole guild. Not even once had she thought that she might lose again!
Her teeth gritted as she felt hatred crawling all over her body! It was all the fault of Hazel, yet she was the one complaining!
How dare she!?
"You! Just who are you to complain? By killing you I am only doing a favor on your lowly life!
Do you think anyone would love you or care for you once the truth would come out.
The man who was running around you or those who are bowing their heads in front of you to follow your commands would look at you with disgust.
Or they would think that you are just like tour mother, a prostitute, who would be willing to sell her both if given a few gold coins?
Rather than bringing out the truth, I am giving you a decent death! Am I not being considerate enough for you to complain?
Or is it true that you enjoy the company of men like your mother that you cant let go of them?
Do you think I have not noticed how that knight looked at you and how you got closer to him when your husband was not there!
Even when you have such a strong husband who has brought your respect back to you, you are still trying to satiate your hunger through another man just like your mother!" Hazel chuckled. She laughed so hard as if she had heard a great joke,
She could not believe that even after staying virgin for her two lives, she was going to be called a slut in other words!
She did not know whom to blame it for? Since she was the wife of Richard in front of everyone while Alex was her lover!
She had brought this upon herself anyway. She rubbed her forehead with force and then muttered in a low voice,
"Either i be with one or more men, it have nothing to do with you,
And if you think you can raise your hands on me due to this mental reason then you are wrong. In the next twenty four hour you will get the befitting punishment.
And as far as it was about my mother, I did not know who she was! So I have no right to judge her and believe in you.
If you are so sure that she was such a vile woman, then let me know her name and decide by myself!" she challenged as she stared straight into the eyes of the woman who had instigated her so many times in the name of her mother that she even forgot the count.
Diana bit her lips with sheer anger. She really wanted to tell her the name but if she did so then she would also tell her that she was the real owner of this palace and the properties in the first place.
How could she tell her so? With her brain and new behavior, she would just throw all of them out while taking everyone in her hands.
"What nonsense are you spouting about? I only said that you are flirting with so many men that I am worried you will tarnish the name of the family.
I was just worried about the image we have earned for so long!" with a pale face and stuttering voice she muttered as she tried to turn and leave but Richard blocked her path.
he had had enough of this woman and wanted to kill her that instant! The bloodlust was so strong that Diana trembled.
Her mind started to think of a way to save herself from the situation. Just when Diana thought that it was the end, hazel held Richard,
"No! Let her go! This is not the right time for us to kill her!" Richard frowned as he looked dissatisfied with the answer.
"But!" He glared at Diana who was taking steps away and then ran from there.
"Why did you save her?" his voice was in a low growl that was full of complain when her eyes flickered,
"I want to uncover the truth she is hiding first!"
