Northern Duchess
Chapter 12 Regrets always come too late


Sir Alex, hearing this, immediately came forward and knelt before the 1st Empress Dowager with both hands, who handed the letter to the 1st Empress Dowager.


____________________


The 1st Empress Dowager then took the letter and read it.


But then shortly the 1st Empress Dowager's face wrinkled and threw the letter loudly on Sir Alex's handsome face.


Plakk!


Everyone in the room was shocked but they did not dare to look at the 1st Empress Dowager, so they could only sit their heads pretending to see nothing.


Sir Alex himself now only wore a flat expression while still kneeling in front of the 1st Empress Dowager even though now the red marks were clearly visible on his white and handsome cheeks.


"How could it be!, they failed!, si4l!, you useless creature!!, in vain all this time I invested in all of them!!!"shouted the 1st Empress Dowager angrily, she was already angry because of her daughter's problems and now they failed?, she was getting angry now.


"Huft~, all of you are out except sir Alex" said the 1st Empress Dowager as she waved at her Servants.


"Both Her Highness the 1st Empress Dowager "said all the Servants together and neatly came out of the 1st Empress Dowager's room.


"Huh!, now it's just the two of us Sir Alex, how yes, your friends can't do their job well"said the 1st Empress Dowager while straining Sir Alex's chin to make Sir Alex look up at him.


"What compensation can you provide?"asked the 1st Empress Dowager and immediately removed her hand from Sir Alex's chin violently.


Sir Alex who heard it was silent he also did not know what compensation deserved to be given to the 1st Empress Dowager as if he himself did not have something valuable enough to it can be given to the 1st Empress Dowager.


"Anything, whatever Your Majesty wants I will try to grant it" Sir Alex said in the end, sitting respectfully, this is all he can do, he only hoped that the 1st Empress Dowager would ask for something she could give.


"really?"said the 1st Empress Dowager while grinning broadly at Sir Alex.


Sir Alex who was stared at in such a way had a very bad premonition.


"Yes, Your Majesty" Sir Alex said confidently.


"Then pay with your body" said the 1st Empress Dowager with a smile that seemed very cunning and evil.


Sir Alex who heard that widened his eyes in shock.


".....!!"Sir Alex did not expect that the wishes of the 1st Empress Dowager were beyond common sense.


"Why are you quiet, can't you Sir..?"the 1st Empress Dowager asked with a laugh coming out of her mouth.


"....."silence was silent again, that was all Sir Alex could do if in the presence of the rulers when he was the most talented Knight in the Empire but he was trash in the eyes of the Nobles just because of his background that an ordinary people without power.


"Okay Your Majesty will I do" said Sir Alex who suddenly stood up.


".....?!"Now replace the 1st Empress Dowager who was confused and shocked at first he was just a joke but did not think sir Alex was brave enough.


When he was about to retract the order, he was made frozen by Sir Alex's nice body which was so tempting that it made the 1st Empress Dowager drool, so that confusion and shock is now immediately replaced by a light.


"Alright if this is compensation I will receive, then come here" said the 1st Empress Dowager.


Sir Alex heard it coming closer and it happened.


(Sorry, this is not an adult novel)


While performing his Sir Alex could only go silent and close his eyes as well as face with his hands, he actually handed all of his to the 1st Empress Dowager.


He did not want to do it, really did not want to, without realizing that his chaotic mind was reminded of the events in the hall, where there he saw Princess Melody?, fighting bravely.


She could feel the warrior spirit from her, what else when she was told to become the Northern Duchess she could feel the virtues, as well as the valor and justice of a noble ruler.


'Yes, he's better suited to be a businessman than this guy, I wonder how far he's gone'in Sir Alex before he finally got into the game despite being forced to.


Meanwhile, Roselina was now ready and was about to go to the BlackVall Empire, her departure was too late, but the BlueMoon Empire had already notified the BlackVall Empire, so for sure there will be no problem for the delay.


Roselina entered into the horse carriage assisted by her personal knight who now had a grim expression.


"Don't be sad, Gio, I'll drop Melody" Roselina said before entering the carriage.


That sentence made Sir Gio freeze on the spot, he wanted to join his master only that he was only in charge of guarding the BlueMoon Imperial family, while Roselina herself was still a descendant of the BlueMoon Empire only she could be said to be no, so that was the reason she would never go with her master.


What now he must obey the last wishes of his master or not just do it anyway because Princess Melody her master must go.


Staring again at the horse-drawn carriage that was walking away from Sir Gio's Imperial Palace finally determined that he would carry out the last command of his master.


For the last time Roselina stared at the BlueMoon Empire before sitting her head in memory of all the memories with her family.


Gazing towards the North where there he was sure there was his sister who was struggling, secretly one drop of tears trickled down until she finally cried.


He wants to be like before, again, where they do not need to do a political marriage because they can choose their own partner like what was said by his father first but what is even now they will be sold.


He only hopes that his first brother Damian can make this land back to how it was because he does not want Isabella and Melody to do marriage like her.


He realized that this was because of his mother, if his mother had been patient their father would not have died and he would not have been like this.
