Arestia Empire'S World Domination
Chapter 28: Worry, Part 2

...—Capital of Excelia, Arestia— Empire...

...—28 August 1238—...

"I heard that His Majesty was in a very heavy activity. To help ease your work, I—"

"Wait." Ann's words came to a halt as Ares interrupted with a slight lift of her hand.

"Is there something wrong, Your Majesty?" Ann asked worriedly, the look on her face looked difficult.

Not once Ann is worried about what Ares wants, she is very worried if she does not succeed in making Fiona an aide to Ares.

"You have a certain purpose, don't you?" Ares narrowed his eyes, investigating and cautious of the bad intentions of his close friends at the Academy.

Fiona—who had just sat there quietly while having a slightly bowed head—when a small tremble. Although it looks very faint, but Ares can find out.

Ann showed a gentle smile, "Not once did I mean to doubt your abilities, Your Majesty. However, I am very worried about your health. Wouldn't it be that if you got sick, the affairs of state could become even more chaotic?" Ann polished her words, trying to make her goal of selling her sibling achievable.

"My sincere intention as the Prime Minister's wife is purely to support this country, Your Majesty," Ann said, feeling gentle and serene.

"That's it..." Ares closed his eyes, sighing heavily, "Because of worrying too much about Clarice who might not be able to marry Raze in the future, you sold your own sister to become my second wife, don't you, Ann?"

"Eh?" Fiona was stunned, showing a look of astonishment.

For Fiona, who had just graduated from the Academy as well as being in her adulthood, she was very stunned because Ares was able to guess the intentions of the two properly.

The complicated world of nobles is something new to Fiona. Moreover, unlike what his friends say if they disagree, the noble children always avoid without expressing their feelings, unlike Ares who said it frankly.

Even so with Ann, who can only smile elaborately. His foul intentions are known. Although it may be true that Ares's work was so heavy that Ann's feelings were divided between caring and profit, Ann remained leaning towards her home advantage.

The events of Excel a few days ago greatly alarmed Ann. In conclusion, Ann is unlikely to force the engagement of her daughter, Clarice, to Raze, the First Prince. The conclusion by which he brought his daughter closer to the Prince was reached before Warren even thought about it.

Ann smiled forcefully, a twitch could also be seen from one of her eyelids, "That's not true, Your Majesty."

Ann's words stopped. She saw Ares' gaze fixed on her thighs, slowly rising to focus on her round chest which stood out slightly behind her white dress.

"What's the matter, Your Majesty?" Ann covered both of her breasts, feeling embarrassed even though she tried to hold him back.

"No." Ares replied straightforwardly.

Strange thoughts ran through his mind. Even though, Ann knew that Ares did not show any interest in his younger brother. Just a look of judgment Ares showed Fiona as he entered the Emperor's private office.

Just being prejudiced, Ares did not think so which could cause him to think something indecent to Ann.

However, Ares does not deny that he has an interest in Ann's body, although Ares only does it instinctively because he is a man who has a healthy sexual life.

"A—are you interested in my body, Ares?!" Feeling very panicked from Ares' gaze, Ann ignored her modesty norm, closing her chest panic that only slightly stood out.

"Did?!" Not only Ares, even Fiona subconsciously opened her mouth in great astonishment.

Ann remembers her tea party with Kristin and Excel a few months ago. Although not openly, some times Excel speech sounds loose. Unintentionally opening her night activities with her husband even though it sounds very implicit.

Comparing with her husband, Ann understood that the man now sitting in front of her had more stamina and size than Warren according to her judgment from Excel.

Moreover, due to her closeness to Ares where Ann knew her calm and gentle personality in the past, as a woman who had a great desire to dominate, she said, a bit of Ares's love for her also appeared in her heart, even though she was engaged to Warren during her school days.

"What do you really want to say?" Ares said in surprise, a little surprised by the other side of Ann who liked such taboos.

Shamed Ann, Ares did not take her willingness seriously, causing her to cover her flushed facial skin with one of her hands.

"In addition, there's no need to worry about Raze and Clarice, they're only 2 years old, you know?" said Ares while laying his body on the back of the sofa.

"T—but... Prince Lucas and Princess Katherine were engaged right after they were born..." Feeling very worried, especially with the great opportunity of her husband's home that can have a huge influence in a country that has more than half of the western continent, Ann said many royalties' engagements can even be done right after they are born as happened to the Prince and Princess Royal Duke Rowling in the past.

Ares breathed heavily. Although she thinks Ann is very calm, gentle, and calculating, Ares feels annoyed with Ann's side that prioritizes the benefits of her home compared to other things.

"I don't know what my wife would do if I did that." Ares momentarily took a breath, "No need to worry, the closeness of a child with another child until they grow up can make them like each other..." Ares played down his voice, "If Clarice doesn't fit into Raze's friendship zone."

"I'm sorry?" Ann tilted her head, not hearing the last sentence Ares spoke, which was similar to Fiona's.

"It's okay. After all, aren't you going to pressure your own daughter as she grows up to marry my son?" ares.

"If so, I can have peace of heart for now..." Ann again stopped her speech, feeling very embarrassed to reveal it.

Ann's eyes faintly glanced towards Ares's face, assessing her appearance closely.

"What's wrong?" ares asked who was astonished by Ann's behavior.

"No!" Ann subconsciously raised her tone slightly, very surprised by Ares who broke her daydream. Taking a breath to calm down, Ann immediately lowered her head to say goodbye, "I'm sorry for interrupting your time, Your Majesty. If you need me, I'll come to you soon."

Her desire does not stop there, Ann gives a sign that she is a little expecting to have an affair with Ares.

"Ah, yes..." Ares can only reply confusedly, not understanding what Ann is saying.

"please excuse. Go, Fiona!" Reaching the hand of her biological sister, Ann got up and went towards the door quickly.

"Eh? Brother?!" Fiona is reflexively surprised, confused by the behavior Ann shows.

Looking at the door that had just closed, Ares let out a heavy sigh, feeling puzzled by the last sentence Ann had spoken to him.

Need her?

Wh-wh-what for?

I really don't understand.
