The Second Life Of The Mercenary
Chapter 89 Redemption.

Charlize looked hard at Isabella and she clasped Isabella's hand and said, "Are you hurt? does your hand hurt? the skin on his face is very thick so don't hit him again or your hands will hurt. Some people are so shameless in acting, I always think where their shamed veins are."

"Pffttt," Luca and Aisnley held back their laughter seeing how pitiful Samantha was right now. Already willing to drop yourself instead of getting sympathetic even get satire, they must admit Charlize to be good at showing love.

"Darling, I didn't hurt him. You know I'm a woman who would get hurt even just by hailing someone's hair, then how can I slap and push someone. You believe me, don't you?" isabella asked, blinking her eyes.

"Of course I believe. How could this cute little hand have that much power, you could even fall blown by the wind so it was impossible to push someone," Charlize replied. He was too enthusiastic to answer Isabella to forget that her words made Isabella upset.

"You hear that? the wind he said. Hahahah," whispered Aisnley laughing at Isabella.

"Charlize is a little stupid, she has a knack for making people upset when she blushes. How could the woman who normally flew people with just one kick fly just because of the wind, Isabella was as weak as that in her eyes," Luca's reply was clearly heard by Isabella.

"That's the power of love maybe" Aisnley sneered.

"If it is the power of love then no one in the world would ever fall in love again" Aisnley replied.

"You want me to kill you? stop your bullshit, "isabella's telepathy makes Luca and Aisnley shut up.

"Have forgotten it! come back, the guests are definitely looking for us. Comeing! hurry up!" Isabella draws Charlize's hand and they all leave Samantha.

"Charlize hates me? in-she? Isabella has taken Charlize completely from me. I've lost her," Samantha's inner heart ached with Charlize's words.

"It's all done. I'll call my sister and sister-in-law here, sister Callix please take care of the kitchen, yeah" Vanessa said. He ran out of the kitchen.

"Have the guests gone home? there should be only a few guests left, time already .. akh!" Vanessa was shocked when someone pulled her suddenly.

"Prince Albert? what are you doing here? I almost died of fear," annoyed Vanessa rubbed her chest.

"Can you stop using formal language? you didn't use formal language before when we were alone. What's wrong with you?" albert asked with a sad face.

"I'm disappointed in you. I want to end our relationship, how can you close your eyes to the truth about Miss Samantha? what if I were the one who fell that night you'd just shut up like this? you used to be nothing like this. You've changed so much, now that you're with the Prince of Babylon there's no difference in my eyes." Vanessa spills all the disappointment of Albert's attitude.

"Vanessa, you have to understand me. Holy maiden is the identity of Samantha that the emperor cannot touch, our empire desperately needs her. If he's in the law then the sanctuary will be an enemy of the royal family, I'm not unwilling to give Isabella justice."

"You don't think I don't know if all this time you intend to keep Sister Isabella and Sister Charlize, then you want to match Sister Charlize with that rotten woman named Samantha. In your eyes my sister is a bad woman right? if you don't like your sister then stay away from me, it's true you don't …." Vanessa didn't finish because Albert was shedding tears.

"Albert, you …." Vanessa wants to touch Albert. However, he dodged Vanessa.

"No one wants to make news for someone's good, they need bad news about someone to get their newspaper to sell out loud. Big brother was in a show all along, I was also wrong for not saying that to you. I'm sorry Albert, I don't like anyone talking bad about you. I'm sorry!" Vanessa hugged Albert just the opposite.

"Where are you taking me? let go of me Albert!" Samantha tries to take Albert's hand off him.

Albert pulled Samanatha without saying anything, and he pulled Samantha up to the emperor's office and threw Samantha on the floor.

"What kind of behavior is this Albert? what's your problem with me?" snapped Samantha.

"You are my problem." Brief Albert.

Then Albert turned to look at the emperor and said, "Ayahanda. I will punish Samantha for what she did to Isabella, not as a holy woman but as a noble. This is the justice I will give you in the name of the crown prince."

A small smile was etched on the emperor's face, finally Albert could do what he had to do, "Alright. Countess Samantha your noble title I revoke, you will forever be a holy woman and cannot leave the holy place. Your property will be withdrawn and we will donate it to the orphanage. This is the emperor's word."

"Uncle, no. Uncle can't do this to me, please I don't want to stay there," Samantha asked Albert, "Say something Albert. You said you were on my side, please stop Uncle."

"Yahanda. You forget me, I'm ready to accept any punishment." Albert kneeling. He wants to make up for all his mistakes.

"All right for you. You'll be locked up for a month in our ancestral hall to reflect on your mistakes, don't think you can go out until the appointed time" the Emperor ordered.

"Thank you for the kindness of the emperor." Albert lowered his head and soon the knights entered, the others took Samantha to the shrine and took Albert to the ancestral hall. 

The ancestral hall was a place where the royal family left their noble titles in his palace, not only that they had to abandon all luxuries. In the ancestral hall they would be at work like servants, no fancy food, no drinking anything but water, working hard to get food rations. That's the life Albert's been going through for a month.

"Wait for me to come back, Vanessa. I won't let you down this time," Albert said as his chariot left the kingdom for the mountains.

Vanessa, who knows nothing about Albert's punishment, cannot see her fiance for a long time, this is the first time Albert has gone to the ancestral hall because it is his first sentence and his first mistake.
