Chương 115: Queen Dawn's Intervention

***************

CHAPTER 115

On the other hand, Queen Dawn kept a close eye on what was going on with Scarlet. 

As much as she wished to let Diamonique take care of her own, she knew that the mother's influence would rub off wrongly on the child and tried so much to prevent it. 

Turning on her heels, her eyes glaze over the chambers of the princess before bringing them back to the new maid serving her.

"Where is she?"

"Your majesty," Courtney lowered her head with her palms pressed against her stomach. 

"That is not an answer," Queen Dawn cautioned calmly.

"Yes, my queen. My apologies but as everyone knows, the princess stepped out with the prince."

"Everyone knows. Is that what you were told to say?" Dawn attacked.

"Ma... I mean, your grace." Fear flashed in her eyes as she sent her gaze up briefly before lowering it to avoid looking into the queen's eyes.
