Chapter 173 - Ren Is Jealous

This royal gala was very important and witnessed by so many people. Amelia wouldn't allow herself to be humiliated if Ren refused to dance with her, especially amidst the news that she and Ren were getting married.

Ren frowned at Amelia's words. He still remembered the incident. He owed Amelia a debt and couldn't deny it.

Finally, he nodded and reached out his hand to pull Amelia to the dance floor. Amelia really liked this song because it was long and very romantic. She immediately leaned her head against Ren's broad chest, and her hands hugged the man's neck while their feet moved in rhythm to the enchanting music. 

Whispers of awe immediately resounded throughout the hall. Everyone was busy commenting on how lucky Lady Amelia was to have won the heart of the number one bachelor in all of Moravia, Prince Renald Hanenberg.

They also complimented how compatible the couple looked. However, of course, many women were jealous of Amelia's luck. Especially some other noble girls who also hoped that they could win over Ren's heart.

"Fae, would you like to dance with me?" asked Mischa suddenly, making Fae startled. She turned to the side and widened her eyes.

"What did you say, Boss?" she asked.

"Mischa. My name is Mischa. As I remember earlier in the penthouse, we planned to appear as lovers. Have you forgotten?" asked Mischa with a smile.

Fae was stunned.

Ah, that's right. She was too lost in her own thoughts and jealousy when she saw Ren and Amelia together.

She must not appear weak and suffering. She had to show that she was okay. Look, she was having a good time with her coworkers and such a handsome date! Seeing Ren and Amelia together didn't hurt her, okay?

Ahhh, Fae felt very grateful because Mischa was so good to her and willing to help her. Maybe without Mischa, she would be slumped on the table and wouldn't be able to enjoy the party.

Wasn't this the most elite event in Moravia? Thousands of girls wish to be here. 

'Kids.. this is the first and last time your mother set foot in the palace. I hope you are happy to come here,' Fae whispered inwardly to her children.

She finally nodded and smiled at Mischa. "I almost forgot. Thank you. Boss, you kindly reminded me. I will dance with you. I'm not a good dancer, so, please be patient with me."

Mischa nodded and smiled sweetly. He was very good at dancing. Since he was young, he really enjoyed this one activity. In the past, Lisa was not very good at dancing either, but he taught her patiently.

"Take it easy, I'll teach you," said Mischa as he pulled Fae's hand up from her chair and took her waist to the middle of the dance floor. Sarah, Anne, and several RMI directors who saw their intimacy could only look at each other and sip their drinks.

They all had the same guess, that their big boss did have a special relationship with his personal assistant. However, what did it have to do with them? It's none of their business.

Amelia lifted her face and looked at Ren. The man showed no expression whatsoever. She really liked looking at the man's face. She could never have enough of him.

Amelia didn't even mind even though Ren didn't look back at her with the same loving gaze. As long as Ren didn't brush her off and tell her to look elsewhere, Amelia would be happy.

"You haven't refuted the latest gossip that journalists are blowing about our matchmaking." said the girl with a chuckle. "Usually, you would have already told Karl or me to set up a press conference and clarify everything. But it's been three days since the news was circulated and you haven't issued a statement to refute the gossip."

"Hmm .." Ren only grumbled softly, not responding to Amelia's words.

"If you didn't make any statement to clarify it, the gossip will grow bigger and turn into a snowball. Because of that, my parents even started talking about it. Aren't you worried that your grandparents will hear about it and it wil give them ideas?" asked Amelia again. Her red lips smiled seductively. "Or maybe you really want to marry me?"

Ren didn't listen to Amelia's words. The corner of his eye had caught the figure of a beautiful woman in a light blue dress to his left rising from the chair. She was now walking gracefully following a man in the black tuxedo to the center of the dance floor.

He turned and watched the couple link their hands and then moved gracefully on the dance floor following L's romantic song.

Amelia frowned at Ren's expression. His face now looked like it was filled with anger. The girl also looked to the left and found the figure that caught Ren's attention. Her face immediately looked shocked.

"Fae? How could she be here?" asked Amelia in amazement. She stared at Ren closely. "Did you know she was coming?"

Ren nodded. "I know."

"Who invited her?" asked Amelia in amazement.

She couldn't imagine a country bumpkin like Fae would know someone from the upper class who could take her to such an exclusive event, the royal gala, especially now that Fae had left Ren.

Amelia then looked back at Fae and saw that her dance partner was a very handsome man who looked imposing.

"Do you know who that person with her is?" asked Amelia again.

This time Ren didn't want to answer. He knew that Mischa and Fae's relationship must not be deep, considering that Mischa didn't even know that Fae was pregnant.

He suspected that Fae intentionally came to this party with Mischa and pretended to look like they were a couple to upset him, just like what Fae did last week. She might even be doing this on purpose to make Ren jealous.

Ren thought he would be okay and couldn't care less, since he didn't love his wife anyway. However, he did not expect when he saw Mischa holding Fae so intimately and took her to the dance floor, Ren would feel so jealous. Now that Mischa was dancing with Fae to a romantic song like this .. his blood stirred.

Fae's plan to make him jealous seemed to be working, he thought irritably. Ren took a deep breath.

THE CURSED PRINCE

[WARNING: MATURE CONTENT]

The crown prince was cursed on the day he was born, that he will never be happy. What's worse, no woman could touch him without dying.

Thus, finding a wife to produce an heir became the royal family's greatest challenge since the prince is the only son.

Until one day.. A slave girl who tried to kill him didn't end up dying after they touched. Emmelyn was a princess from one of their colonies who vowed to avenge her family's death by killing the crown prince.. And that's how she ended up in his castle.

Seeing that she was the only woman he could have sexual relationship with, without killing her, the prince made an agreement to let her go and free her kingdom from his oppression if she produced for him three heirs.

Emmelyn said yes, but every day that they were together, she made plans to kill him and get her revenge.

Can Emmelyn get what she wanted, or would she be entangled deeper with the enemy who was deemed as the devil incarnate himself by his enemies?

****

EXCERPT

"You will be the mother of my children," said the man in a commanding tone. 

His shameless words rendered Emmelyn speechless and shocked, more so, than the kiss he landed on her lips earlier.

"Eh ... wait.. what? Hold on a minute," Emmelyn, who was moved from her shock, hurriedly rubbed her lips roughly as if trying to remove the devil's marks from them. "I don't want to be your wife! I don't want to marry you, you devil!!"

The man frowned and squinted his eyes menacingly. "Who said anything about marriage?"

.

TEN YEARS LATER

"Rrr... it's been too long. Let me go."

"You haven't given me heir number 3."

"But you're the one who was always busy when I was on my cycle. Not my fault!"

"Hey, lady! A deal is a deal."
