More Acting

Mineah wanted to vomit at what she was seeing with Ahmed's eyes. He looked at her like she was already his, and she couldn't help but feel disgusted at his behavior. Nevertheless, she had no choice but to keep talking to the man. As such, she casually drank her tea as she did her best to keep a blank expression on her face while doing exactly that. 

"The coronation will be held tomorrow, My Queen," Ahmed reminded her with a grin. "I want to hear your answer before that happens."

'The audacity!' Mineah inwardly seethed. She couldn't wait to see this man's downfall. Just imagining it now was already giving her a lot of happiness. The fact that it would also coincide with Nikolai's return also helped her hold on against just getting rid of the minister herself. At the very least, she wouldn't have to wait long before Ahmed finally got what he deserved.
