Chapter 388 One condition
A day has passed, and I still haven't thought of anything to make Ruler Laird and Principal Germund support the Vrawyth Kingdom again.
I look at my calendar and heave a sigh. I need to make a move already. In just a few days, everything will change, and I need to do something to prevent losing the support of these two powerful Cities.
I stood up and decided to just convince Godfather and Principal Germund again. Even if I'm not sure if it will work because it didn't work the last time I did it. But I need to take chances. Who knows, maybe this will work today.
I pick a semi-formal dress to make myself presentable. I want to look like I took the effort to get dressed, but at the same time, I don't want to be overdressed. So, I decided to choose an elegant semi-formal dress instead of those flashy formal dresses of real Csille.
After making sure that I look good, I immediately get off the house. However, I was immediately stopped by our butler.
"Dame Csille, where are you planning to go?"
I look back at our butler and smile awkwardly at him. Why does he always find me in times like this?
"I have something important to do today."
The Butler shakes his head. "I'm sorry, Miss, but the Count and the Countess strictly ordered us not to let you go out no matter what. So, can you please return inside?"
I heave a sigh. I know I will have a problem going out again. Even if Brother Pascal didn't sell me out yesterday, Mother and Father still prohibit me from going out. They were probably afraid that I would go out again for the whole day.
"Mister Butler, I know you are only doing your job, and I understand that. However, I need to go out today because I am planning to look for Ruler Laird and Principal Germund. I need to talk to them about something important. I cannot tell you the details, but it is about the safety of everyone in the Kingdom. I think that is enough reason for you to allow me to go out, right?"
The Butler frown and takes a deep breath. "Miss, how can I be sure that you are really going to the Great Ruler and Principal Germund's residencies? What if you are only saying that so I can allow you to go out?"
I heave a sigh. "Why don't you just come with me so you can be assured? Is that enough reason for you to allow me to go out?"
The Butler stares at me for a couple of seconds before he nods his head. "You already offered. How can I decline, Miss? I will then call for a carriage. Can you please wait here?"
I look at the Butler and smile. He is really a loyal person. Always making sure he would follow what my Father and Mother asked him to do.
A moment after, a carriage stops in front of me with our Butler inside. He then gets off the carriage to help me get in.
I just instruct the coachman where we will go, and our trip to Godfather's residence becomes silent.
A moment after, the carriage stopped in front of the gate of Godfather's residence, and the guard was asking for our identity. Our coachman looks back at me, "Miss?"
I nod my head at him before I open the window on my side. "Good day. Forgive us for coming here uninvited, but can I see the Great Ruler?"n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
The two guards look at each other before one of them runs inside the residence. He would probably ask Godfather if I could come inside.
"Excuse me for interrupting, Great Ruler. But his highness Prince Fraser is asking for an audience with you. Is it okay for us to let him in?"
My eyes widened when I heard what the woman said. Prince Fraser is here? But what is he doing here?
I look at Godfather, and I find him staring at me. "Do you want me to talk to him?"
I just stare at him. Dumbfounded by what was happening. Why is he asking me if I want him to talk to Prince Fraser? Isn't that his decision to make?
I heave a sigh and shake my head after my shock subsides. "Godfather, it is your decision if you want to talk to him or not. I don't want to decide for you."
He just nods his head. It looks like he was satisfied with my decision. He then looks at the closed door. "Let him in."
I took a deep breath and anxiously waited for Prince Fraser. A moment after, the maids announced Prince Fraser's presence, and the door was open.
Prince Fraser's eyes look around the surroundings, and his eyes dilate for a moment when he sees me. He then looks at Godfather, who is sitting beside me. "Forgive me for my sudden visit. I came here hoping to talk to you, Great Ruler," he looks at Principal Germund for a second before he looks back at Godfather. "And to you, Principal Germund. I hope you can give me some spare time."
Godfather stares at Prince Fraser for a moment. "Are you here to convince us to support the Vrawyth Kingdom again?"
Prince Fraser's eyes widened for a moment then he nodded his head. "It's the purpose of my visit today. I hope you can reconsider it, Great Ruler. You know how your support can help the Vrawyth Kingdom. So, I hope you can let me explain."
Godfather shakes his hand. "No, need to explain things, Prince Fraser. I have seen it with my own eyes how you treat my Granddaughter. I understand you only break up with her because you love someone else, and I respect that. However, you also need to respect our decision."
I hold Godfather's arm and look at him pleadingly. Hoping his anger will melt if he sees me begging him.
I need to make him support the Vrawyth Kingdom again. So even if I need to swallow my pride, I will do it. I am not
only saving the whole Kingdom. I am doing this to save my family too. If The Godfather continues backing up the Vrawyth Kingdom, then I can be assured that he will also help the Lauretré family when the war starts.
Godfather stared at me for a couple of seconds before I heard him take a deep sigh. "But if you are really persistent on convincing us to support the Vrawyth Kingdom again. Then I will do it but on one condition."
I heaved a sigh of relief when I heard what Ruler Laird said. I really thought it would be impossible for him to change his mind. It's a good thing my puppy eyes still have it's effect on people.
I look at Prince Fraser. His eyes shine while staring at Ruler Laird. "Great Ruler, can you tell me what is this condition you are saying? I will do it to the best of my ability."
Ruler Laird nods his head. Quite satisfied with the response of Prince Fraser. "If you really want me to support the Vrawyth Kingdom again, then you need to do this condition. I can only support the Vrawyth Kingdom if you will follow this."
Prince Fraser nods his head. "Just tell me what it is that you want me to do, and I will immediately prepare for it."
"I want you to marry, Dame Csille. That is the only way you will let me support the Vrawyth Kingdom again. I want you to make Csille Lauretré your only Queen. Can you do that for me, your highness, Prince Fraser?" 2
