“I can not help you but every person in the royal family can! They were there when the incident happened!!”

“Incident?” so she was right! Something had happened there! When she had seen the eyes of Rafael before, she was sure it was too dark! But what would have happened!

She pursued her lips as she weighed her options! Asking Scarlet would only mean earning her ire.

Diana! She did not trust her! Damien, he would frustrated her before opening his mouth and Rafael, if he wanted to tell her, he would have already told her!

“Darn! There is not a single person in the palace who talks normally!” well! At least she knew that there was nothing she could find in this damn library!

Why was he taking her to an ominous place! Could it be as simple as keeping the flies away!?

She stared at all the books in the library with a deflated look on her face. When she had come here after lunch, she was determined to not leave this area before knowing the truth! But now.._.

Dragging her body out of the library, she went to the empress office instead of her room.

Her maids were already waiting for her when she walked out but surprisingly Diana was also there. Her rose dress made her look leaner and her golden hair was shining as if they were speckles of gold!

“My lady, thank goodness, you come out. I was about to come in to meet you!” Hazel tilted her head and hid the frustration of her face well.

“What for?” without waiting for Diana to continue, she had already started taking brisk steps towards the office.

“For helping you of course! Haha, I heard during lunch that you are going to handle the negotiation of the trade route that had been closed for two decades!

So, I wanted to assist you in deciding conditions and making papers! You have asked lady Natalie to discuss the terms tonight and it is already evening!

You look so tired! Were you trying to find books on how to sign agreements? I am afraid this kind of knowledge and experience could not be gained through books!

But you do not need to worry, I have a lot of experience! You can entrust the task to me. I will handle everything!”  with a sweet smile on her face, the girl offered to help as if she was the one who cared most about Hazel! Or did she?

After all, she would gain nothing if she continued to help her except the ire of her mother! Yet she was here! Should she ask her!

While she was still pondering, they had already reached the door and the maids bowed their heads and opened the door for both of them.

Hazel walked towards the seat of the head! The empress sat and swirled it. With a smirk on her face, she sat down on the plush chair and her face field with arrogance!

Once seated, she stared at Diana with haughty expressions on her face as if she was looking down on her! But what surprised her was that the sweet smile on Diana’s face did not falter a bit!

She was still standing there with a sincere expression on her face that stunned Hazel who was testing Diana!

“Since that is the case, do you know why that land is important for the empire!

I have checked that the land did not have any significant growth in industry or agriculture! I think we should not sign this negotiation!” she touched the small stone on the table that was used as a paper weight and started playing with it nonchalantly.

She made sure that she did not look anxious to know about the land and showed that she did not have any idea about it!

“You are right, my lady. The place did not have any significant growth but that is an old land where covens of witches existed at a period of time.

The place used to flourish at that time. But once Rafi had an argument with the witches and then he burnt their whole place.

That time, it was no less than a war! We have lost many close associates at that time and one of them was my father too.

Since then we have been living in the palace! Even Rafi, he was fatally injured and had almost lost his life in that war.

Many believe that he still has the curse of witches in his blood that keeps him thirsty for blood constantly but not as other vampires!

After that no one dared to reside in that land except a few native villagers who always had good relations with witches and shared the land with them.

After that all the trade routes to that land were closed and the empire had cut all the contacts with those lands and their people.

If Rafi had decided to restart the route then it meant he was suspicious that his enemies had come back or he wanted to usurp the land so that they could never come back!” taking a seat on the other side, Diana looked at a distance as she told her whole story.

Hazel could see a hint of regret and longing on the face of the girl and it showed that she had lost a lot in that war too! But what was the reason for the war?

No! She shook her head, that was not important! At least, now she knows the reason! So was it due to the war that the books related to that place were burnt or was it due to the loss the palace had suffered!

At least she knew that witches are not there anymore! Phew! That was a relief!

She took a deep breath as her clenched muscles started to relax slowly! Though she still did not understand why he was taking her there, she should not be worried so much about saving her life now!

“My lady, if possible you should try to cancel the deal!”

“……..”
