章 513: CRUEL QUEEN II

ARIANNE POV

The whole court erupted in a loud murmur of argument and disbelief. Even Langmore who had been on his knees in front of me had risen to his feet, his face ashen as he stared at me in disbelief. I maintained my composure giving the people of the court to voice out their thoughts and their concerns.

"She can't do that!"

"That is impossible!"

"She can't remove Langmore, can she?"

"Why isn't the king saying anything and just standing there?"

"We will not stand for this!"

I exhaled as the people of the court expressed their thoughts out loud. I have given them enough time to vent and to be honest, it was starting to irk me. I've had enough of this.

"SILENCE!" I yelled out, my voice cutting through the noise like a sharp blade. The room fell silent, the weight of my command hanging in the air. All eyes turned to me, surprised by the sudden outburst but also captivated by the authority in my tone.
