Chapter 240 Politics or Life?



“Do you know where Rafael is?” The maid looked bewildered by the change of subject but shook her head.

“Why would a maid like me know where the lords are? I heard that a lady named Diana had called him and he left in a hurry!” so that was the reason!

Hazel’s face dimmed. She felt like a rock was drowning her down. So, he left alone again because of Diana? Hadn’t he said that he was going to stay loyal with the girl he loved.

“My lady! This is too..”

“You do not need to worry about it. I know what I am doing. If you want to help me in taking the revenge of your daughter then go and help me in finding out if this man is against VIncent or one of his men?” the answer would show if he was trapping her or testing her.

But what difference then would it make? She was going to do it anyway. A wary smile formed on her lips as the maid nodded after some thought and left..

“My lady, I have brought the physician you were looking for!” Hazel, who was writing something on her desk, closed the file and nodded her head for them to enter.

“My lady, I heard that you are sick and need my services.” The man adjusted his glasses on his nose and stared back at her when she nodded and the man came closer.

“Then allow me.” he held her hand and checked her pulse when a frown formed on his face.

He moved closer and checked her eyes and tongues and then her face but his frown only grew deeper.

“My lady, can you tell me what kind of discomfort you are feeling?” he asked in a polite but suspicious tone when Hazel wondered if he was acting or he had no idea about the deal.

“You can leave us alone.” The maid bowed her head and left the room when she felt the physician staring at her and then at the door with a cold look on her face.

“I need a poison that is not deadly enough but looks lethal. I want to act like someone has attempted to kill me but I do not want to place my life in danger?” the eyes of the man widened and he adjusted his glasses once again with a bigger frown this time.

“What are you talking about? Why would you do that!” The man stood up abruptly with the intention of leaving the room. His eyes had a cold glare as if the woman was spouting nonsense.

But just before he could take a step out, a bag of gold coins were thrown in front of his feet stopping him from leaving.

“Do you think that you can buy me with money? I earn much more than this. You..” another bag of gold coins was thrown in front of him/.

“You! I am only enduring it because you are the princess of this empire or I would have gone to his majesty to complain. I!” another bag of coins was thrown out with a mocking laughter this time.

“Ha! Do you think he would take your side and punish me? He is the one who had asked me to do so for his politics. He would have only hanged you in the name of treason to make sure that you would not be able to open your mouth against him.” she assured making his face white.

If he was acting, he surely knew how to put on a good act.

“Now.. are you helping me or not?” she asked while throwing the dagger this time instead of the gold bag. The message was clear and the man gulped. He had not thought that it would end up like this.

“I.. I did not want to be part of it. Even if I would give you the poison, promise me that it would have nothing to do with me” she nodded her head, though she had no idea what was going to happen after this. It was a blind game where she was sacrificing herself to gain more. Then how could she think about him!

He cursed under his breath as he took out a few ingredients from his bag and checked them a few times before passing it to her.

“These are all the medicine to treat cold, fever and stomach poison but if they were taken together they would worsen the situation of the person and it looked like he was suffering from poisoning.

Though it is not deadly, I will still suggest you take it in moderation. I will come and check your condition later but I would recommend that you do not do anything foolish.

Politics is not more important than your life.” he adjusted his glasses as he sighed but without waiting for her reply, he turned and left the room.

Hazel stared at all the medicines and then took the empty bottle from the table he had left too and mixed all the medicine the way he had suggested.

She stared at the finished bottle in her hands and then at the letter she had written for Rafael when she heard the knock on the door.

“My lady, everyone is asking for you in the dining room.” the maid looked at her with an unnerving smile as she stared at her that made hazel’s brows furrowed.

She gave a last look to the bottle but unsure should she take it with herself. She was not going to mix the poison in front of everyone, would she?

No! She would wait and see how it was going to play and wait for more instruction from Vincent. With that thought, she did not pick up the bottle when she stood up and walked onwards to the door.

But just as she had taken a step, the same maid came following her and interrupted her,

“My lady, you have forgotten to take this with you.”
