Capítulo 36: A woman's reputation.

"Hazel," Sebastian called before Hazel could do anything and they turned to him. He beckoned her with his hand and Hazel gave Mia a smirk while walking away.

"Your Majesty, your highness," Hazel bowed respectfully and Sebastian couldn't help but notice how sincere she seemed while other times it just seemed like she did it because she had no other choice.

The Queen responded to Hazel's greetings with a scowl but the latter was already used to the woman's dislike by then.

"What is it you want to see me about? I already observed that you have no etiquette at all but seeing the Queen anytime you want is just… outrageous," Queen Lisbeth chided and Hazel ducked her head like a child being scolded by their parents.

"I apologise, Your Majesty. I tried every way to have an audience with you but I couldn't so I resulted to this," she lied with a straight face and Sebastian laughed knowingly. The Queen just huffed, having no other words to rebuke her.
