King Alec was furious after reading all the reports and evidences of the crimes of government officials and corrupt nobles. The defendants knelt before the King's throne with frightened faces.
"How dare you cheat behind my back!" King Alec's Jerk.
"Again, Sire. We beg to forgive us. We promise to give it all back." Please them while prostrating.
"There is no mercy for criminals like you. You eat well all the time, while my people live in hunger and poverty. Many parents and children are victims of your savagery." Said King Alec with a flushed face.
"Put them all into the dungeon!" The King of Alec's.
"For example, Sire."
"Quickly take them away from before me right now, before I chop off their heads one by one!"
The guards immediately took the criminals and dragged them to the dungeon.
"Marquess Filan, call the officials and nobles to come before me. I want to have a meeting and resolve this matter as soon as possible." The King of Alec's.
"Okay, Sire." Answer Marquess Filan.
King Alec threw his breath out harshly. "I didn't expect the problem to be this big. It took me a long time to finish it. Pity Alice and our twins. They would definitely suffer if Alice couldn't sleep well."
It didn't take long, all the officials and nobles have come. King Alec did not want to waste any more time and immediately held a large meeting to solve the problems experienced by the kingdom and its people. Although his heart was not calm, King Alec tried to stay focused while leading the meeting.
"Miss, why are we coming to the Queen's palace? If His Majesty finds out we'll get into big trouble." Said a servant to his master.
"You take it easy, Vea. Your king will not be angry. This Queen's Palace had been empty for a long time, since Queen Roseline had already left. My father told me that the relationship between the King and Queen is very bad. And he said to His Majesty himself who had driven Queen Roseline out of this palace." Veronica, daughter of the Druff noble.
Veronica is one of the noble princesses who once got a lunch invitation with King Alec. With the departure of Queen Roseline and Julia from the palace, he made sure that someday he would be chosen to be the new wife of the King and become the new Queen. Veronica was very convinced because her father had considerable influence in the kingdom of Cardania.
"Sorry, Miss. You are forbidden to enter the Queen's palace without the permission of His Majesty." Said a guard holding Veronica and her servants and guards to enter the Queen's palace.
"Please! How dare you be disrespectful to a noble daughter like me. Do you know who I am? I'm Veronica Druff, daughter of the Druff noble." Veronica said arrogantly.
"Baginda the King himself asked me to come here." Veronica barged in while showing her family's plaque.
Veronica's bodyguards confronted the Queen's palace guards, so their Miss could pass.
"Miss I beg you we better get out of here. Servant is really scared." Please Vea when you see the Queen's servants rushing out.
"How noisy you are, Vea. You better shut that mouth." Grouse Veronica.
"Welcome, Her Majesty the Queen." Shouted the servants while giving their respects.
Veronica and Vea's servant were shocked. Soon a smile rose on Veronica's lips.
"You see, Vea. They welcomed me and called me Queen. I am indeed destined to be the Queen of this kingdom." Shouted Veronica proudly.
Vea simply forced a smile on her lips.
"You dream too high, Miss Veronica Druff." There was a stern and cold voice coming from behind Veronica and Vea.
Veronica and Vea instantly twisted their bodies. They were very surprised to see that Queen Roseline had stood gracefully before them.
"Th-you?" Veronica.
"You? Really don't know manners. Looks like the Druff wards can't educate their daughter well." Queen Roseline said mockingly.
"I mean Her Majesty the Queen." Veronica said with trembling lips, then saluted.
"It's too bad you came to my palace! Do you not know at all the rules and manners that have been applied in this palace for so many years? I wonder what kind of education you've been getting all this time, until you don't know how to be nice." The Sarcas of Queen Roseline.
Veronica squeezed her dress strong. He did not accept being insulted and denigrated by Queen Roseline.
"How dare you demean my family. You're just a queen who's been dumped. Your Majesty no longer needs a woman like you. You should not return to this palace because His Majesty will not accept you again. Your Majesty will choose me and make me his new Queen. Because I'm so much prettier and better than you." Veronica said while shouting.
"Please! How dare you speak harshly before the Queen." Snap Marie.
"Huh, who do you think you are to dare to yell at me? You're just a lowly servant." Veronica snapped back.
Plaque!!! (Queen Roseline gives a very hard slap on Veronica's cheek)
"Less @j@r!"
Veronica wants to slap Queen Roseline back. But Queen Roseline immediately blocked his hand and twisted it. Veronica is complaining of pain. Vea did not dare to help as the Queen's servants had surrounded her.
"Let go of my hand!" Shouted Veronica.
Queen Roseline intensified her horror and made Veronica fall to her knees before her. Queen Roseline clutched Veronica's jaw and pressed it.
"J@l ang like you is not worthy to set foot in my palace. You're nothing more than horse dung littering every inch of dirt here." Said Queen Roseline with her cold gaze.
"I, Queen Cardania have returned. And as the ruler here, I will not let pests like you roam my palace. This is my palace, my territory. Catch that!"
Marquess Andry galloped towards the palace meeting room.
"Baginda!" His shout made everyone who was in the meeting room shocked.
"What happened, Marquess Andry? Why are you yelling like that?" King Alec asked with his angry face
Marquess Andry approached King Alec and whispered. "His Majesty the Queen has returned."
King Alec immediately rounded his eyes.
"Are you serious? Don't you try to lie to me. I can separate your head from your burly body right now." King Alec asked in disbelief.
King Alec smiled happily. He immediately got off his throne.
"Marquess Filan, you're leading this meeting. And you all need to get this thing over with, as soon as you can." The King of Alec's.
"Okay, Sire." Answer them.
King Alec immediately left the meeting room and headed for the Queen's palace on the run. Her heart is very happy to hear the news of the return of Queen Roseline (Alice).
"Guards, the law whips this woman 25 times." Shouted Queen Roseline.
King Alec stops his steps when he sees what Queen Roseline has done to Veronica.
"Queen. What's going on?" The King of Alec.
Queen Roseline turned her head towards King Alec and let go of Veronica's hand violently. As soon as her hand slipped, Veronica immediately ran towards King Alec.
"Thank God His Majesty came. Please servant, Sire. The queen was on a rampage and wanted to give the punishment of the whip to this helpless servant." Please Veronica with tears.
"Is it true that he said, Queen?" Ask King Alec.
"Yes." Yeah." Queen Roseline answered briefly and coldly. "If your Majesty protects her, that means everything this woman told me is true."
Veronica looked frightened.
"What has he told you, Queen?"
Queen Roseline pulled one end of her lips. "With her arrogance this woman said that she was the new future Queen of Cardania. His Majesty himself has chosen him to replace me who is considered useless. He also said that His Majesty would no longer accept me back."
King Alec instantly hardened his jaw and stared intently at Veronica. "Is it true you said all that?"
"For Your Majesty. Servant does not mean to be presumptuous. Everyone knows that the relationship between His Majesty and the Queen is very bad. Moreover, the Queen is not a perfect woman who can give His Majesty offspring." Answer Veronica.
"And the servant is the perfect woman and worthy to accompany His Majesty." Added.
King Alec's face turned red. King Alec strangled Veronica's neck strongly. "How dare you say that in front of me and my Queen. Trash like you will not be comparable to my Queen who is like a rare diamond."
"I-I'm sorry, Sire." Lirih Veronica with a pale face and eyes getting red.
"Detach, Sire. You're just gonna make him die easy." Queen Roseline.
King Alec pushes Veronica's body to the ground. Veronica held her neck while coughing.
"Guards! Take this woman out of my sight. Do what the Queen has commanded and add another 30 lashes." Shouted King Alec.
"Okay, Sire." The bodyguards immediately dragged Veronica away even though she continued to thrash to be given a caning.
King Alec wiped and cleaned his hands first before approaching Queen Roseline.
"I'm glad you've returned to this palace, Queen." Said King Alec with a glazed netra.
"This is not my wish. So don't be too happy." Ketus Queen Roseline while rubbing her stomach.
King Alec smiled. King Alec escorts Queen Roseline to his room. Queen Roseline was very surprised to see the room she had once occupied had changed. King Alec has replaced all the items in the room with the latest model, so with the color of the wall paint that was originally dominated by softpink color into a luxurious gold color.
"Have you done all this?" Queen Roseline asked as she looked towards King Alec.
King Alec nodded with a smile. "Do you like it?"
"Yes tolerable. It seems more comfortable than before. The change of mood could help me enjoy my pregnancy." Answer Queen Roseline.
"Bright... I feel like I'm living in my own room now. How could King Alec have such an idea."
King Alec developed his smile when he saw the sparkling eyes of Queen Roseline. King Alec pulled out Queen Roseline's hand, making the Queen flinch and slightly nervous.
"From now on don't listen to any foul talk from anyone else out there. Whoever you are, you are my only Queen, still my companion leading the Kingdom of Cardania. It'll always be like that until death pick me up."
"There will be no woman who will harass you, let alone take your place. I'll make sure of that." King Alec said later.
Queen Roseline (Alice) is moved by the words of King Alec. His cheeks instantly blushed as King Alec gently kissed the back of his hand.
