Kidnapped and Rejected – The Return of Alpha’s Luna by Moon Claw

Chapter 213

Belle took a moment to tidy her dress, which got wrinkled during running.

Then she puffed her chest, raised her chin, and walked over like a proud princess.

“Morning.”

She said in a polite yet distant voice.

The ladies jerked around in shock. Especially Agnes. Her movement was so large that

she almost knocked over a teacup.

“Princess Belle, wha–what are you doing here?” one of the ladies stuttered.

“I am here for your tea party,” Belle replied with a cool smile.

“Forgive me Your Highness, but you are not invited-

“Oh, is that so?”

Belle raised an eyebrow, glaring at her, “This is my house, my garden. The willow above your head was planted by my late mama and papa decades ago. And now you are telling me that I need to be invited to my own home?”

The lady flinched, biting her lips in silence.

Wells walked over and stood behind his twin sister’s back, “Belle, looks like we have got a bunch of intruders in our house. What do we do to those intruders again?”

Belle said in her soft, silky voice, “We chase them out. Or we shoot them dead.” “Great idea.” Wells grinned, stretching his body, “Do you want to take the lead? Or should 1

“Wait!”

Agnes stood up abruptly with a pale face.

Her chest heaved. Then she forced out a smile, “You are more than welcome to join us, Princess Belle, Prince Wells…and Lady Janet.”

“Awesome.”

Belle held Janet’s hand and led her to the long table set underneath the tree.

There were several intricately designed cushions on the ground. All the ladies were sitting on those cushions.

Yet there was only one empty cushion left.

“I am a dude. I can sit on the ground,” Wells shrugged.

“Then we still need one more seat at the table.”

Belle looked around the table and eventually fixed her gaze on Agnes’s face. “…Agnes, you should stand up and make room for me and Janet,” she chuckled.

The twin’s target was quite clear now.

The ladies exchanged uneasy looks with each other while Agnes’s face twisted with embarrassment.

Then she said in a strained voice, “I don’t think that is necessary, Princess Belle. I can easily ask the maids to bring us one more cushion…”

“So now it is OK to add one more seat to the table? Then what about last Christmas?” Belle said in a loud voice, “You sat in MY seat last Christmas by my brother’s side! When I walked up to confront you, you said that the table was full and asked me to sit somewhere else! I got angry yet you said to everyone, ‘Look at Belle. Getting all teared up for such a small matter. But who can blame her? She is just a spoiled child.“”
