"You are too clumsy mother. If i did not know any better i would have thought that you have let go of the bowl knowingly so that it would fall on me and i get burnt by it.
Hahaha.. You should be a bit more careful, mother. The soup was extremely hot." Diana gritted her teeth. The way she had said it, if she would try to blame Hazel now, then they all would think that she was trying to put the same excuse to show her in a bad light when she had already apologised and had pointed out that it was a mistake to let go of the bowl.
Her face turned red with anger. She wanted to burn the bitch alive when she heard her speaking again.
"It is fine that you did not want to apologise! At least change your clothes!" the way she said it with crumpled nose, it was clear that she felt that Diana was stinking,
She had never felt this humiliation before. Burning with rage, she was about to raise her hand to recall Hazel who she was!
But before she could do so, Amelia stood up and held her soldiers.
"Mother, sister is right. You will get blisters and burn your skin if you do not apply medicine this instant.
Come let me help you in changing clothes and applying medicine." Amelia looked at her fuming mother with a meaningful gaze and forced her to go with her.
"But. Have you seen her evil smile." snarled Diana with rage but Amelia only looked around to see if they had heard it and took only a sigh of relief when she did not notice any change in their expressions.
"Mother, you need to calm down for a while. Didn't father say that hazel was going to live with us again.,
Once the crown prince would be gone after having dinner. She would be alone again. Then we will show her her real position and then you can teach her a lesson about this incident too.
But till then you have to be a good mother who is kind and magnanimous." she explained and only then did the rage of Diana died a bit.
"Ha! To think that she was sitting there confidently as if she was formidable. Had she not thought that we would get even with her later." her eyes filled with hatred when she remembered the evil smirk on the face of hazel when the soup fell all over her.
"She is not that smart. That is why it was easy to convince her. Now stop thinking about her and let's get your clothes changed.`` Amelia fumed. Why did she need to take care of her grown up mother all the time.
Instead of helping her in impressing the crown prince. Her mother had created a scene for which she had to come here and coax her! If the crown prince would not have been there and she would not have been portraying the image of a good mother, then she would have not cared about both of them at all.
"Yes, please help me in dressing up and stay with me to keep me sane till the crown prince leaves. Then we both will teach her a lesson together.`` Diana smiled at her daughter who had always been caring and loving.
She was just not like that witch who had tried to burn her today. Who knows how many times she tried to hurt her in the past too but did not succeed.
Only her Amelia could be the best and most caring person.
The smile of Amelia faltered when she listened to her mother. What! She wanted her to spend all the time in the room when the crown prince was sitting in the dining hall.
How would she be so lucky to have a meal with them once this golden chance had been gone. No! She could not let this happen.
She smiled while looking at her fuming mother who was so dumb.
"Of course, I would have stayed with you and made a lot of plans but father had asked me to come back as soon as possible after escorting you to your room.
He is worried that the impression of the crown prince on us would be ruined if we both did not return.
He would think that we are trying to take revenge on sister by making her feel guilty. She is the one who is in the limelight tonight." not only did Amelia clear her path, she even made sure to add a lot more oil in the fire.
"Aah, yes! Your father only cares about his image. If that is the case then you go back there. I will go to my room alone and ask the maid to help me in cleaning. Do not anger your father." Diange fidgeted at her place when she recalled the glum face of her husband. She knew how agitated he became if things didn't go according to his plan.
Amelia smirked when her plan worked smoothly. Not only did her mother panic, but she would also blame Amelia for this later!
"But mother.. Are you sure that you will manage. Do not worry about your father, I will handle him later." she continued her caring act but when she saw that her mother's eyes were sparkling and looking at her with hopes again,
She frantically added, "but this time might be different as the crown prince already has a bad impression of all of us due to hazel!
I am worried that my father would be too angry if things did not go according to his plan!" She took a deep sigh as if she was facing a dilemma when her mother's eyes turned cold too.
"It was all because of that which! She should have told us earlier that they had invited the crown prince here. Then we would have been prepared well." then she turned at her worried daughter,
