Chapter 125: Loss of Control
The rendezvous between Ava and River was brief, though it took only a few minutes to destroy the girl's entire self-control.
"Evote the captain to speed up the ship." Wherever Ava turned her face, all she saw was a blue sea stretching to the horizon. However, that was not what Ava needed right now.
He must hurry up.
The image of River sitting curled up with no zeal for life is still imprinted, and sick.
"Lord Princess, the captain has said that speeding more than this will only endanger passengers and waste any m-where stones are used." Rose knew that her master's mood was bad, but she also didn't want to die from drowning!
"Passengers are just the three of us. Duke Frost, an ice storm ranker. Me, who ordered it. And you're. He doesn't have to worry about us. Which rock? Hah, didn't she know that I was a royal princess?"
Rose had been working as a servant for many years, and when suddenly she was placed in the palace of the daughter of Edodale, the rumors she heard rang in the head. First was the princess, the best alchemist in Edodale liked to conduct experiments on the people around her. Second, Princess Eve did not like to socialize and treated her servants coldly and arbitrarily. Although the first rumor still did not have concrete evidence, Rose was too afraid to ignore it. However, it is different from the second rumor, it is true that Princess Eve who he saw was always flat and rarely expressed, but that does not mean she is cold and arbitrary. According to him, as long as no one was presumptuous beyond the limits of the princess' privacy, they would be treated with mediocrity.
But now, Princess Eve looks dangerous. As if, just one blow would plunge anyone into the blacklist he kept. Rose does not know who the man who was affected by the outbreak and confined to it, but she is certain that the man has an unusual relationship with his employer.
And it seems like it was also felt by Ellijah.
Though still, his countenance was stiff, tight, and motionless. I don't know since when. Maybe after Eve and her entourage were out of quarantine, or when the princess threatened the rest of the ship's crew who were tired of waiting to leave immediately, or when Princess Eve ordered the captain to increase the speed of the ship every five minutes.
Ellijah doesn't like it.
Then, ... How about it?
Will she ... be left again?
... Eve can't do it.
As a royal princess, as the fiancee of a Frost Duke, Eve must know her obligation to marry him.
They should get married.
But their marriage was always postponed because of the King's decision.
They ... are getting married, aren't they?
In that case, would he have to get rid of all the people who were his rivals?
But seeing how Eve had already lost control just because of the mild illness that the tamer had suffered, wouldn't she be hated later?
Well .., as long as he doesn't know, everything will be fine.
