The Romantic Trials Of A Transmigrated Empress

Chapter 162: A bath in fairy dew water.

The rest of the day was a busy one for Sigrid, Roland and all the Thorin’s. It took an entire day for most of the renovations both inside and outside to be done. By the time the sun set, everyone was stretching or groaning.

Sigrid figured everyone needed to relax before dinner and she could think of only one activity. "May I suggest a trip to the new hot springs...."

"No, no, no." Lady Iryne interjected loudly, refusing Sigrid’s suggestion with so much passion in her voice. "We want....." She shook her head. "Your father and I want to use that home theater, we want to start the news series, courtesan something."

"The courtesan’s dilemma." Elowin shared the title and then put a hand over his mouth. He blamed himself for speaking up too soon. "Mother..."

Nobody saw Jennie’s next move coming. She drew a sword out of Sir Samuel’s sheath and pointed it at Elowin.

"Series or death, you decide." She threatened. "Choose wisely because I am not afraid to use this thing. Swords have no eyes."

Roland counted up to ten and he magically withdrew the sword from his mother-in-law’s hands. In his books, she was officially crazy. To his amazement, the Thorin’s laughed and he felt like he had missed something.

Elowin saw the confusion on the face of the prince and decided to quell his curiosity. "My mother wakes me up like this every morning demanding that I hand over the next episode of the rise of Lady Blanche. Don’t worry, she cannot kill her own son and I always win in our face offs."

Roland sighed in relief, it was a game, a disturbing one. That look on his mother-in-law’s face however did not look like the face of someone playing.

"Just give your mother the damn crystal, she has worked too hard today and is deserving of a reward." Lord Paxton Thorin came to his wife’s aid.
