The Romantic Trials Of A Transmigrated Empress

Chapter 129

Chapter 129: Scandals, oh scandal!

Lady Percival who was known for her sharp tongue and even sharper wit, was caught in a heated argument with Lady Jane Fairfax over the last glass of champagne. The rather loud argument was only overshadowed by the even louder music in the background.

The exchange ended with Lady Jane dumping the contents of the glass over Lady Percival’s head, much to the amusement of the onlookers.

Lord Fairfax turned all shades of red and he carried his intoxicated wife out of the hall amidst chuckles from onlookers.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the auction is not over. We have entered the second phase and in the line up, we have the third prince Benjamin Roland." Mauve announced loudly.

He played along with the excited crowd, flexing his biceps, turning around slowly with his arms spread out. He even blew kisses at the ladies and winked which fueled the madness.

He was an unwed prince with two open positions for main wife and secondary consort, nearly every single woman in attendance wanted to occupy one of those positions.

"Fifty thousand gold coins." Kitty Anderson shoved another young lady aside as she moved to the front.

"One hundred thousand gold." Emmah countered.

"One hundred twenty thousand." Bernadine Rosewood jumped up and down.

Her mother pushed her hand down and she frowned. She did not want her nineteen year old inexperienced innocent daughter anywhere around the roguish prince.
