The Dark Side of Fate

Chapter 160

The Dark Side Of Fate By Karima Sa’ad Usman Chapter 160 ~Sylvester~

The day of Larry’s hearing was finally upon us. It was not supposed to be long, but we had to brace ourselves for surprises. I watched Tamia stand in front of the mirror in the closet, admiring her brooch. It was one of the many decorative accessories she was given to use in her official capacity as Queen.

Today she would not be a guest in the King’s Hall, but the Queen and I looked at her proudly. We had come a long way and still had a long way to go. Ending Larry’s madness was just a phase, but we had the right to breathe and celebrate.

I went to her and wrapped my arms around her from behind. I touched her bump gently in the process. The free-flowing short gown she was wearing covered it up. She closed her eyes and smiled. I could tell that she was genuinely happy. That was all I ever wanted. She turned to face me, and we kissed passionately.

Breaking the kiss, she smiled at me.

“So today is the day we put all of this behind us,” She said, and I smiled, nodding.

We left our room and headed out. We would be leaving for the city in a convoy. Unlike before, when we all shared a limo, it would be just Tamia and me in our Limo while the others shared another Limo. It was the only downside of being a king. The invisible line that separated us during official occasions was a bother, but we could bear it.

We arrived at the King’s Hall with a crowd cheering for us.

The people were still grateful for what happened at the Lucland general hospital. They saw us as heroes, and I was glad that Larry’s last move made us more popular with our people.

Thinking of everything, I wondered how Larry believed he would be King. Lucas was right to question Larry’s resolve.

He should not have had that many resources to pull off the stunt that he did, but an angry, determined man could do anything, and to think all that he was fighting for was built on a lie was highly annoying and disappointing.

Emily had misled him and put him into a situation where he would commit unnecessary blunders.

Although Larry had a wife now, he ruined and broke another woman’s heart to seek revenge for his first love, who did not care for him. She was trying to climb the social ladder by all means.
