Chapter 47 - A Lethally Poisonous Gift

The three people who heard what elder Lathodore said widened their eyes. Even the elder Lathodore felt as if he got possessed suddenly to blurt out such a dark secret openly in front of this girl. He excused himself after blessing the couple letting them attend other guests.

" Lathodore, what happened to you? why did you mention that here?" 

" Miandrake, would you believe me that I had a premonition just as I touched that girl's fingertip, I feel she is not the one whom she claims to be."

Gazing at the flustered Esbertrazian elders, Emmy could not believe her ears which had definitely heard the words 'dimensional world'. Just as she opened her small mouth to enquire about it to Alex, he came clean all of a sudden, " I'm also hearing such a thing for the first time. it must be some kind of Esbertrazian secret but why did the elder blurt it out to you at the first meeting, I guess all the Esbertrazians are really strange huh!!!!

" Don't forget, now I'm also an Esbertrazian, so no need of poking us with that comment."

Alex and Emmy smiled at each other and then rejoined their table after greeting most of the guests. 

Meanwhile, in the backyard of the food preparation area, a steamy and ambiguous scene was taking place. Three male servants who were assigned the charge of the food and drinks were enjoying themselves with a petite woman. The woman was stark naked and on her body, there were clear marks of how fierce were these three perverts in the deed. After enjoying themselves to the maximum with her, the three men left the backyard as if nothing happened and the woman drowning in pain still got up to dress up.

On a clear look, anyone could understand that this woman was none other than the maid who was instructed by Arona previously. After dressing up properly, the maid made sure to hide all the marks over her body and the pride of getting the master's task done was pasted over her face.

After a while, the maid returned to the princess Arona's side and conveyed the success news of their scheme. Victor and Rasber were keeping close attention to the princess Arona, so they got the idea that within just 2 hours, the present happiness of the crown prince was going to flow away.

The Evildoers might have plotted their plan well but heavens wanted to take de route today, hence the three men who were asked to spike Victor's and Lamia's drinks got muddled up and they accidentally spiked three glasses. The maid had agreed to have sex with them in exchange for getting this task done but her sacrifice went in vain.

As the feast began, Rasber identified the servants who were in cahoots with the maid and he made sure that the drinks were straightly delivered to Arona's and crown prince's table. Due to their overconfidence, they overlooked the fact of the checking which were spiked ones. Victor stared at Arona as she was downing her drink in one, and slowly drank his wine.

" This woman can't wait to lay her hands over him, slut." Victor thought to himself. while he was thinking about it, his eyes then turned to watch Emmy who was munching on the delicacies of the feast. Before Victor could say a word, there came another person in between them.

" Miss Lamia, indeed you are so beautiful and was able to change the crown prince's mind. I must admire you. For congratulating you on this occasion, let me give you a toast. "

Arona was standing in front of Emmy pridefully as the hatred was spotted in her eyes clearly. Emmy knew this woman came here to stir up trouble for her but still, she pasted her face with a fake smile and accepted the goblet of wine from Arona. Both of them downed their drinks in one go.

Arona laughed after she saw Emmy had finished her drink completely, then she whispered in a low voice which only Emmy, Victor, and she could hear.

" You slut, how dare you become the crown princess of the Salian clan? The one beside you is what this princess wants…Getting rid of you is an easy task as I could even get rid of my sister from his life. Within seconds, you will be bidding farewell from this world. hahaaha.. "

Arona's sinister laugh shook both Emmy and Victor. Victor knew something went amiss after seeing Arona's behavior.

" Arona, watch what you are saying, don't say stupid things after getting drunk. Lamia, this woman is drunk, don't worry, she is blurting out in her drunken stupor."

" Me ? drunk? Hahahaa, oh my dear second prince, I have really gifted her a lethally poisonous gift just now and this idiot drank it completely. Within minutes her body will start to show the symptoms of being poisoned."

" Poisoned? The princess of the Agnartic clan is using poison to get her things done, what an eye-opener."

Alex joined the conversation but he could hear only the last few words which Arona said. With his entry, none of the three opened their mouths, Emmy was sitting calmly but her mind was racing, how could she forget the fact that the battle princess was head over heels for the crown princess and she might do anything to stop her rivals.

" Brother, this woman is drunk, I will make sure that she apologizes to you both after she sobers up."

Victor asked the maids to take Arona away to rest and he excused himself in the pretext of being called by his friends.

Alex sat beside Emmy and saw her anxious look.

" What happened to you? "

" Arona said that she poisoned my drink which she offered me as a toast. She said it was something really poisonous and within minutes my body would show symptoms but I was feeling nothing but tiredness".

Alex's mind snapped out of his control, " How dare she poison you, she must be tired of living. I"m going to make her repent for this. Just wait."

" No Alex, trust me, I'm fine. That woman is only drunk."

" No, I cannot take chances in your case, come, we will ask the physician to check on you."

After excusing themselves, the couple and their friends returned to the Acasta Palace and asked the senior physician to check on Emmy. By now, Emmy was tired completely and she closed her eyes slowly.

" Reporting to the crown prince, yes, they are traces of the Navjuan inside her body. I have given her medications but still, I must warn you, if she does not wake up by tomorrow morning, she will be going into a coma state forever and even if she wakes up, this poison will make her brain fried out.. To be exact, she will be losing her conscious mind in both cases. "
