Forgotten Wife: Let the Traitors Kneel Down by Patricia Maradiaga

Chapter 199

CHAPTER 205: END

The news about the birth of the new princess was celebrated throughout the kingdom of Cosset, the nobles brought gifts to bless the newborn heir princess.

Alessandro saw everyone present very pleased and said to Gabriel.

- I want Lissana’s presentation to be remembered in history, so do your best to make it so.

Gabriel looked at the king with hatred, since the princess was born he had not been able to return home because the work stopped piling up due to the excessive love he asked for. Gabriel was tired, he had not slept for a month and the lack of sleep was beginning to affect his health, he thought.

"If I continue working like this I will end up dying."

- Your majesty, I resign.

- What?

- I can no longer continue with this job, my health has deteriorated and you only continue to put more burden on my shoulders, I resign, find another assistant.

Gabriel was very good at his job, Alessandro was not going to let him go so easily, he told him.

- I will double your salary.

- It’s not about the money your majesty, it’s that if I don’t leave this job I will die, I have a family to look after so I resigned.

I understand that you are tired since the palace has been in great bustle since Lissana was born ...

- The problem has not been the birth of the princess, the problem is that his majesty escapes all the time and leaves aside his obligations, obligations that I have had to carry out since his majesty does not.

- Calm down Gabriel, I will give you a vacation after Lissana’s presentation.

- No, I want them now.

- Gabriel I am your king, are you rebelling?

- Yes, I am rebelling against the tyrant who does nothing but exploit me.

If it had been anyone else, Alessandro would have punished her harshly, but he could not do the same to Gabriel if he wanted to continue having him by his side, he gave a big sigh and said to her.

- Okay, take a few days of vacation.

- I want a month.

- Gabriel, you are being very capricious.

- For a whole month I’ve had to work very late and I haven’t been able to go home to see my family, I think a month is fair.

Alessandro gave Gabriel an intimidating look, but he was too tired to care so he held his gaze firmly, in the end Alessandro had no choice but to agree to Gabriel’s requests.

- Okay, take a month off.

Gabriel left the papers he had been holding on the desk and said.

- Your majesty, here is the list of all the things that are pending to do, I hope you catch up on them before I get back.

Gabriel headed for the door and said goodbye without further ado.

Alessandro had been working all morning and that mountain of documents on the table seemed to multiply, he wanted to be with Aby and his daughter, he didn’t want to be away from her for a long time, but Gabriel taking a vacation left him in a difficult position, he could no longer escape from his work as he did before.

He continued working for a while longer when suddenly one of the servants entered and announced Cassian’s arrival, as if it had been a blessing from heaven.

Alessandro ordered him to be let in. Upon entering Cassian greeted him.

- Lessan, how good to see you, I’m sorry I didn’t come sooner.

- Same to you brother and don’t worry about it, you couldn’t have come at a better time.

Cassian, seeing the mountain of documents on his brother’s desk, wondered if that was true.

- I suppose you’ll stay until Lissana’s presentation ceremony and since you’ll be around here you could give me a hand.

- Actually I only planned to stay a few days, I’ve only come to meet my niece, by the way, how is she?
