"If you are really interested in knowing more about me, you should ask questions to either me or my husband, Richard.
He would tell you what I really am!" Eli, who was waiting for Hazel to be flustered, was surprised when she looked at the confidence on her face.
But she was not the one who would give up so easily. Even she maintained the smile on her face and raised a brow,
"Hmmm, lord Jonathan had really not assessed you well. Is that why you abandoned him to marry lord Richard or had the charm of lord Richard won your heart?" she asked in the same cold voice and hazel frowned. She did not understand why ELi was trying to flare her.
"Eli! Is there some problem?" asked Alcastra who had come just in time to hear the last statement of Eli. his sister had always been wise and graceful when it comes to talking to strangers, especially when she was told how important the person was!
"Brother! You are here!" There was no regret or guilt in her eyes as she looked at her brother and even passed him a smile.
"Since it has been too late. Shall we go back or else father would be worried!" His voice was soft and there was a kind smile on his face, yet the face of Eli hardened.
Her placid smile cracked for a second but it returned and she nodded her head.
"My lady, I hope to see you soon in the palace!" Alcastra held Hazel's hand and kissed it gently with a smile as she nodded her head.
Eli stood up and stood beside Alcastra and they both bid their greetings and left.
Alcastra was walking with hurried footsteps and soon he was covered with knights from both sides.
"Why were you trying to have a rift with the girl?" asked Alcastra without beating around the bush once they were out of the palace.
"I have a conversation with lord Jonathan!" she replied and he frowned.
"And!?"
"Do not tell me that you don't know hazel was engaged with lord Jonathan. But suddenly she ran away from the palace and came back with Richard!
Don't you think her behaviour was questionable?" she could not believe that her brother was taking the matter so nonchalantly! Was he not the one who usually fights for the norms of nobles to be followed no matter what.
"Ha! That brat had asked father to annul marriage more than a hundred times and now that the girl has married someone else. He can not digest that!" Alcastra shook his head as he finally realized what had happened.
That cunning man had manipulated his sister in believing that he was a victim and now his righteous sister was starting the barricade!

"Even if that was the case! Should not hazel have informed him and annulled the engagement first before marrying someone else. Now Lord Jonathan is treated like a joke in front of the society!`` She retired though she felt that she was lied to by that man.
He behaved as if he was in love with hazel and could not accept that she was gone from his life.
"Eli! I understand that you want proper norms to be followed and so do i! But their case is different!
Jonathan never wanted to marry hazel. It was the marriage decided by their family. And not even a day passed when he did not ask us to annul it.
He is just hurt that his ego was challenged. He could not digest that Hazel was the one who had rejected him first and even found a better husband than him.
And if it is about Richard. He is not from our empire. So, you can not expect him to follow our rules. Can you?" he asked while turning to look at his sister whose lips had been pursued into a thin line.
He wanted to tell her that he had investigated the girl as he knew that she wanted to use his powers.
Even when it comes to Richard, Alcastra was not the type that would dance on the others fingers. But when he came to know what had happened with the girl even when there were so many strict rules in the empire, he felt like he was at fault too.
Therefore he had turned blind eye to her behaviour. He did not want her to feel that there was no one on her side. That George and his daughter Amelia deserve to be punished.
But he could not tell that to his sister. She had always been pampered and treated previously, he did not want her to face the harsh realities of life so soon.
But when he looked at her reluctant face, he felt fury and narrowed his eyes on her face.
"Eli!" he groaned and she finally sighed.
"Yes brother, I understand." she looked straight into the eyes of the man who nodded and ruffled her hair.
"Better! Richard has a special position in the empire. Even father can not go against him much less me and you. So, I request you to not create any situation where we have to face his wrath!" he explained. He knew that his sister was smart rough to take the hint.
"Yes! I apologise for not understanding where the benefit of the empire lies!" she bowed her head and the man finally nodded with satisfaction.
"It is fine. Not that all the misunderstandings had been solved, I expect that you will try to befriend Hazel when she visits the royal palace!"
"Yes, brother! I will make sure that our family would get maximum benefit from the visit and you will not be disappointed with me!" but that did not mean that i would accept hazel with Richard.. What if I got successful in showing the man that the woman was not worth him. That way you would be thankful when Richard would fall in love with me!"
