Isolde studied the smug smile on Ashley’s face, debating whether to let her bask in her supposed victory. In the end, she couldn’t help but offer a warning,
“You think you’ve won? Do you even realize what a grave mistake you’ve matle? Even if the King refuses to grant me the Duke’s title, I lose nothing. As you said, I am already the Princess of Filial Devotion, married into the Valen family–my status is secure and prestigious. But you?”
Isolde’s lips curled slightly.
“You schemed your way into the palace, spent all day anticipating the King’s visit, and when he finally arrived, if you had just remained silent, he might have followed protocol and favored you tonight. But no you couldn’t stand the thought of staying quiet. You had to show off, had to take a shot at me. And now, you’ve drawn the King’s and the Queen Mother’s disfavor upon yourself.”
Ashley chuckled, unconcerned. “Oh? And you think you can read the King’s mind? If he truly disliked me, he wouldn’t have made his decision based on my words.”
Isolde raised an eyebrow, stepping closer. “Oh, really? Then go back and wait. See how long it takes before the King actually visits your chambers.”
She flashed a toothy smile, then turned, sweeping away with Esme at her side.
Vivian fumed. “Lady Isolde is far too rude to you, Your Grace!”
Ashley merely walked forward, smiling faintly. “I ruined her plans–of course she’s furious.
Despite her outward confidence, a flicker of unease gnawed at her.
She had overstepped.
But the King hadn’t been openly displeased. The Queen Mother had shown no signs of irritation either. As for Catherine–well, Catherine’s opinion could be managed with a few well–placed gestures of goodwill
Still…
“Vivian, do you think the King is angry with me?” she asked, her uncertainty slipping through as they walked.
Vivian hesitated, then said. “I don’t think so. After all, it was he who asked for your opinion. And everything you said was merely a rephrasing of Queen Catherine’s stance. If the King were to be angry with you. wouldn’t that mean he’s also angry with her? Besides, in the end, he adopted your reasoning. Even Queen Catherine didn’t press the matter further. You shouldn’t worry too much.”
Ashley nodded, reassured. That made sense.
Still, she had completely failed to read Thelma today.
One of her main reasons for coming had been to observe her–try to understand what kind of woman Thelma truly was. A person’s words and actions could reveal their inner nature.
Yet today. Thelma had shown nothing. No strong reactions, no obvious inclinations–she had simply
