Chapter 407: Lady Iryne’s rage.

Lady Dove Wheatley did not expect to be arrested in the end. It was said that the Horse Keepers never failed in their missions. For so many years, they had managed to get away with causing mayhem, unseen and unheard. She couldn’t fathom why things had not worked out when it came to her.

As she sat in handcuffs, sweating under the questioning of a constable, she cursed the Horse keepers and Sigrid. Because of them, she would be spending a lot of time in an Eldorian prison or even be executed, unless her family intervened.

The door of the small interrogation room was opened. In walked Sigrid and two burly knights. The constable stood up and offered her the chair he had been sitting in.

Sigrid faced Lady Dove, running her hands over the gold pearl necklace around her neck. It was the same one Lady Dove had paid to acquire the services of the Horse keepers.

Lady Dove’s hands that were handcuffed to the table trembled. She wanted to reach out and sip the smug smile on Sigrid’s lips or maybe choke her to death with the necklace. Perhaps she could stuff those pearls down her throat after she was death.

Sigrid sighed when she saw the hatred in the dark pupils of Dove Wheatley. It seemed like the woman had not repeated at all.

"Are you here to gloat?" Dove asked.

Sigrid laughed. "Why would I gloat? I was not competing with you and I certainly don’t see you as an enemy. I could barely remember your name or face after meeting you. I am here to thank you for helping me root out the Horse Keepers. Because of you I got my hands on so much dark material that the nobles of Eldoria will be dancing to my tunes for a very long time to come."

"Get out." Lady Dove growled.

"No, no...this empire is mine I can go anywhere I want. Unlike you, from now on you will be stuck in a tiny prison cell for the rest of your life. Your punishment is not death, it is to watch me live a happy
