Chapter 202. Kapmen’s Suffering (1)
"Uh I see… that’s good," Christa muttered with a bitter smile upon learning that one of the commanders of the Supranational Knights had come to serve Navier. He was even saying that she was his savior.
Being the Queen of the Western Kingdom, she also thought that this was a good thing for her country. However, she was definitely bitter that she wasn’t that person.
After thinking for a while, Christa went to the flower garden she tended herself and ordered her ladies-in-waiting,
"Make a flower basket with those flowers and give it to Navier."
"Oh my. Do you want to send her a gift first?" The ladies-in-waiting asked angrily.
As Christa’s potential enemy, Christa’s ladies-in-waiting disliked Navier from the beginning. And after Navier’s subordinate blatantly insulted one of them, they truly detested Navier and her ladies-in-waiting.
They could not believe that she wanted to send a gift to Navier.
"Why are you doing this, Queen?"
"Whether I like it or not, that doesn’t matter."
"Your Majesty…"
"As long as Navier doesn’t do anything wrong, as a former queen, I must show friendliness to the current queen," Christa sighed and added, "Besides, one of the commanders of the Supranational Knights came here to be on her side. What’s the point of fighting?"
Eventually, one of the ladies-in-waiting reluctantly began to pick Christa’s precious flowers and placed them in a basket.
While she was making the flower basket, the other ladies-in-waiting continued to talk to Christa about Navier.
"Queen, it is useless for you to try to get along with her."
"That’s right." another one added, "That person already considers the queen an enemy."
"Didn’t you hear that she contacted Miss Mullaney?"
Christa frowned as she helplessly fiddled with the ribbon on the flower basket.
"Miss Mullaney?"
The twelfth candidate for Heinley’s Queen.
It was that young lady who told Christa to her face that she should leave the royal palace because she was no longer queen.
As for Christa, she most certainly didn’t like that person.
But did Navier call her?
"Navier is trying to get Lady Mullaney on her side."
Christa sighed again, muttering with a stiff expression, "Navier sees me as a total enemy…"
"That’s right. Otherwise, she would have remained quiet until the wedding, taking advantage of her smarts for the country’s sake."
"If she has called Miss Mullaney, it means she wants to get rid of Christa."
"You must do something, Queen."
The ladies-in-waiting urged Christa restlessly.
Christa was not the only one to lose power since Navier’s arrival. The queen’s ladies-in-waiting also experienced the same.
If Heinley had married a young lady from the Western Kingdom, they would be in a better position than they are now, for no young lady could surpass their influence in high society.
Besides, King Heinley was a playboy. A playboy who could have dozens of concubines in the future.
The Queen in a marriage of convenience would be lonely and marginalized. Without the king’s heart or power in high society, becoming a queen in name only.
