BXBX NOVEL Chapter 302 - Humaliation At The Door!
Ayra's eyes twinkled blankly before a thin layer of red blush creepted through her cheeks. This narcissistic demon could flirt with her anytime and anywhere. He didn't even take an account that so many people were observing them from around. Especially the girl looked like she was going to kill her off right at this spot.
Ayra tilted her head up only to see a group of poker faced people who looked clearly upset after watching her. Though this demon had cleared the boundaries with them to her, she couldn't be so disrespectful on her very first wedding day.
Tugging her veil closer, she started to approach the man who was probably the uncle of Cedric. Coming in front of him, she bowed her head slightly to the man at his old age and greeted with respect,
" Greeting, Your Highness! "
Robert only glanced at her face unhappily and huffed before spitting out her venom,
" Hmm! You must be the first hybrid? The cursed child? No wonder! Your aura feels so omnious."
Robert stated venomously and was happy that he had something to bad mouth about this new woman. His perfect plan was ruined by her. Knowing that Cedric had no intentions of marrying anyone, he was progressing with his plan slowly but who ever knew that she would steal his eyes within just a day. Furthermore the woman was older than him. But he couldn't deny the truth that they looked nothing like an age-gaped couple.
Cedric heard his words and was utterly disgusted. Some people was so daring to embarrass his wife in front of him. Just when he inteneded to step out in order to rescue his wife, Ayra spoke with a calm smile,
" Yes, Your Highness! I am that cursed child who destroyed the biggest witch from the world even though there were so many powerful living creatures across the worlds."
Ayra kept her statement simple but carried a lot of weight that felt too heavy. She was basically turning her embarrassement into appreciation. Sure enough, Robert's face darkened instantly. Apart from being incredibly powerful, she had a sharp mouth reserved for those people who deserved it.
Cedric was more than satisfied with Ayra's words. His lips curled up into a satisfactory grin and watched the woman with adoration. Robert wanted to blurt out something more harshful but Cedric's deep eyes sent him an unknown threat.
He gave up the idea and turned aside to signal at his butler who stood a few inches away with a wooden box in his hand. Being signalled by his highness, his butler came across and opened the box widely to give him better access.
Robert dipped his hand down into the box and pulled out a glistening jewel reluctantly. No matter how dissatisfied he was, he couldn't avoid the Royal Rules. Morever a flawless image infront of his tenants was mandatory.
Ayra stared at the glistening jewel blazing amidst the half darkeness. She couldn't help but wandering what was his real intentions originally.
Robert streched out his hands with the jewl towards Ayra who was dazed for a while. Then she heard him speaking in a gentle voice than before,
" Here! A gift on behalf of my family. I can pretty much guarantee that even your own family had never seen this precious jewel of our world."
Robert spoke tauntingly and stuffed the jewel in Ayra's palm hurriedly. Ayra who sensed her blood boiling started to take heavy breath. She could endure her own humaliation but her family had nothing to do with that.
She suddenly broke into a polite smile and clutched the jewel in her hand tightly. Steping back one step, she handed over the jewel to Siemus who was struggling hard to keep her rage folded.
Eyes keeping locked on Robert who had an arrogant smirk playing on his lips, Ayra suddenly called out Cedric affectionately,
" Hubby..do you have handkerchief?"
Cedric almost stumbled on his feet upon hearing her sweet and seductive voice. He stared at her face for an unknown time until he heard her urging tone again. Snapping back to reality, he quickly pulled out his red handkerchief and passed it over to Ayra who was definitely upto something.
Otherwise this woman would ever take the initiate of calling him 'hubby'? Not a chance!
Cedric gave and waited in bewilderment to see what was she intending to do with that handkerchief in reality. To everyone's surprise, Ayra just started to wipe off her hand that just grasped the jewel leisurely.
After she was done wiping and cleaning, she threw away the handkerchief nastily and explained innocently,
" My hands were dirty with some rubbish staffs. I just wanted to clean off."
Pfft!
Cedric almost brust into laughter at her wise tricks and really wanted to kiss her hard until she was breathless. For the very first time, someone had impressed him madly. He looked up at Robert whose face was ashen as if he was just slapped hard in front of everyone.
Ayra diverted her attention to somewhere else and saw the awestruck look on Sienna's face who was lost of words. Done with playing in his cheap tactics, Ayra approached Sienna with a bright smile and introduced herself politely without noticing her vicious gaze,
" You must be our cousin?"
Finally Sienna had the chance of embarrassing this fiesty woman. She snorted out coldly and replied with a smile,
" Yes, I am Cedric's cousin. Not yours! "
Ayra smiled awkwardly understanding that no one had actually wanted her here. Sienna continued wandering her eyes on Ayra's attire from head to toe,
" Besides, I have to still figure out whether you are deserved to be our sister-in-law or not. After all, not everyone deserves to become the prestigious daughter-in-law in our Dixon Clan."
Sienna was no different comparing to her father. Robert was deeply satisfied with Sienna's indirect insult and smiled cunningly. This time, Cedric stepped out to take Ayra's side and replied on her behalf to Sienna,
" Sienna! Before you judge her, you should also know that It will take only few seconds for me to rip off your pretty face. You don't want to lose your beauty in this early age, do you?"
Sienna's face paled and lips trembled together violently. Judging by Cedric's tone, he wasn't joking at all. Even if he did, there wouldn't be anyone to save her not even her own foster Father.
That's why she always desired Cedric! Such a powerful person could only born in history!
Sienna replied dropping her head down a little,
" I..I was just kidding with sister-in-law, Cedric. Don't be so rude! "
Cedric didn't wish to waste anymore time with them. Under everyone's watchful eyes, he scooped Ayra in his arms according to their old tradition and headed inside hurriedly.
Ayra who had no clue about the ritual remained dumbfounded!
By the time, he came in the hallway, Isabella was making her way outside. Because of her big protruding belly, she couldn't go out hastily and had to delay in each task.
Isabella was stunned before turning into laughter. Her laughter echoed through the hallway as she teased dropping the flower from her hands carefully,
" I didn't ever know that my brother was in rush to bring her bride inside. You made her uncomfortable. Aiyah! Put her down now! Look, how she is blushing! "
Ayra sighed out frustrated and found her feet back on the ground. The man finally decided to drop her down and she found her heart coming back to her chest. He always made her heart thumping wildly.
Tilting her head up, she saw the pregnant woman smiling at her brightly. Her heart felt warmth at her friendly gesture. Ayra figured out that she meant no harm and was Cedric's elder sister.
Isabella came to approach her and whispered lowly,
" You must be Ayra! Dear god, you are so beautiful. No wonder! My brother was so desperate to marry you."
Ayra smiled shyly and greeted back,
" Hello sister Isabella. I heard a lot about you."
Isabella teased with a smile,
" Really? Hmm! It seems like my brother has spent so much time with you."
Having no one around, Ayra asked out of curiosity,
" Your younger sister?"
Isabella's smile dropped a little. Since the moment, Jessie didn't come to Palace and probably went to inn again. Isabella faked a smile and replied while guiding her inside the palace slowly,
" She has gone out for some business. I will let you two introduce once she has come back."
Ayra didn't find any flaw in her response and started to discover the walls curiously. Cedric who was forgotten behind spoke with anger,
" You forgot about me already sister? Is there anymore rituals to perform now?"
Isabella paused midway and smiled wickedly. Confused with her smile, Cedric kept staring at her face and heard her speaking mischievously,
" Of course! You both have to bath together before heading for your wedding night."
