MEANWHILE

"Mother are you okay?"

Carrying the fake worry, the Illegitimate prince Harry asked his mother who faked her sickness in front of the King, laying flat on his mattress.

"I don't know what I did to deserve this kind of treatment, all I ever intended to be Rosemary's mother and love her like one!"

Spelling those words, perfectly sugarcoating the King.

The cunning woman on the bed wrapped up in pure lie as the king sighed looking ahead at his her, before granting his seat. He seemed ashamed of his daughter's behaviour.

The princess was rebel and hot blooded indeed, just like him.

The step family seem to blindfold the king since years, the royal throne has been the target obviously for them all these years but what happened at the dining earlier seem to strike them with fear today.

Sure, the rebel Princess always showed the signs of belongingness for the throne but never she demanded it with whole authority before like she did today.

What if? What if the King handles her the throne? Fact was it, she was actually the rightful heir for the throne as she was the pure blood of this dynasty!

Now the princess has to be their target cause if not, then surely they will get manipulated and threatened by her for life.

Princess Rosemary Jen threatened them to seek people's attention today, what if she really does that?

The step mother and son cannot obviously let that happen, it will bring shame to them and honour to the Princess making her way easy for the throne.

Today even though it was hard to believe, but both the step mother and son felt frightened by Princess's claim.

And obviously they have to come up with something sooner to prevent any mess in future created by the rebel Princess.

The illegitimate son moved forward.

"Besides being my sister, I have to call her princess. I know Rosemary never accepted me as her brother but the bitterness is so much between us that it makes me believe that the throne is our enemy."

The cunning son worked his skills to tame the king towards his side, wining his sympathy.

His fake claim did not fail to surprise the king with his acts like every other time. He was indeed a good son, he always pretended like one in front of the king.

Obviously, he had to pretend so he could inherit the throne in future. It was his greed!

"If she wants it then I am ready to give up on it, if Rosemary is happy I don't want the throne, father!"

The son stated boldly as the King's eyes hardened.

Only that strike turned the whole situation without any notice.

Cleaver was the son, smirked the woman on the bed seeing her son's skills.

The king reacted in rebel, opposing the son's sacrifice.

"Rosemary has always been stubborn, thinking she is just a child I have ignored it always but not now. She should learn a lesson, the throne demands labour sweat and blood which a woman can never provide at any manner."

King claimed while clenching his fists, as he looked arrogant out of all second which kind of even scared the step family.

Getting the victory sign the illegitimate prince Harry then smirked. He looked over towards his mother in the bed who nodded to him.

"But she won't seem to back down, she really desires the throne, my king!"

The concubine uttered letting out a fake sob which earned the King's attention in no time.

Walking towards the mattress, he soon held his second wife's hand to console her in a way.

"I cannot handle the throne to Rosemary just because she desires it!"

The king uttered seriously in clear anger.

"She is immature, she needs to learn the struggles of a ruler!"

The king continued as the son then worked his mind briefly, that was what he wanted.

To lure the king through his acts and make him want to punish his own very daughter, before soon smirking and gutting to walk towards his parents's way the cunning Prince uttered surprisingly.

"If father won't mind then may I suggest something?"

The illegitimate son asked politely stepping ahead while the king still remained too arrogant to notice his ugly intentions.

"What is it?"

The king commanded in his angry yet curious tone as then the son knew he got him at his side entirely.

The king will do whatever the son wants him to do now!

"Rather than talking, let me show you my idea father. We have our royal guests waiting for us at the lobby, let's attend them first!"

The illegitimate Prince Harry bowed as the king couldn't help but to be more curious about his idea now which involved their royal guests?

Walking down the stairs, the king was leaded by the illegitimate prince. They were soon welcomed at the scene of the lobby where one royal man was sitting richly.

His aura was even so powerful matching his personality.

He was the only man who even intimidated the king to no limits and the king absolutely hated him for that.

"Master Xavier?"

The King's eyes widened as the illegitimate son smirked from the staircase while nodding his head at his words delightfully, the king then flicked his eyes at his son's way again with a confused look.

What could be his son's plan which included that royal man?

Their world was divided into classes and the believed classes of rich men were seemingly divided by master Xavier, he drew the line between every classes.

He was the upperclassman, who was rumoured to be the highest among everyone in richness and also in standards. Even above the king!

He was worshiped by many, he was respected and honoured everywhere. Even the king had to bow dow to him! 

The confusion on the father's face gained the son's attention but soon the moment of hesitation flew away when he looked back at one of the maids standing behind.

Soon then Prince Harry, gestured one of the maids to come closer to him which she obeyed, mumbling something on her ear he strictly threw her a gaze to leave as she bowed in obedience.

"What are you doing-"

Father's eyes widened as the son held his arms stopping him, he looked at him with a convinced look. Telling him that it will all be okay.

"Trust me in this father!"

The son spoke as the king jammed his feet on the floor upon his son's words while gluing his gaze at the upperclassman sitting in the lobby with richness.

Seeing the maid approaching down to where he was sitting, made the King's immediate anxiety build up. The king started sweating at this point!

"Harry you-"

The king tried stopping his son before any destruction could have happened when suddenly he heard a loud shout from down, it was too late already!

"WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING?"

Master Xavier was the one who shouted at the maid with extreme rage, seeing her just approaching him with the tray of tea.

What could be wrong for a woman to serve him?

"GET AWAY, GET LOST!"

Followed soon by another yell, Master Xavier enraged standing up all offended and angered by this huge mistake.

But opposite of them, the king who was seemingly feeling anxious seconds ago now had a blank look on his face getting the meaning of his illegitimate son's performed scheme for the upperclassman.

The king was understanding was the illegitimate son was trying to show him.

The upperclassman was one strict performer of celibacy, he was dedicated towards his position and power. He never allowed any woman near him, no woman ever dared to approached him.

"I guess you understood my suggestion father, yes Princess Rosemary needs to learn the strictness of this throne, the struggles and also the sacrifices. Do not get this wrong father, I just want princess to have little knowledge of what she is dealing with. Throne isn't a play of children!"

The king nodded his head while still staring down at the scene of the upperclassman angering over the maid.

"IS THIS THE WAY, THIS KINGDOM TREAT THEIR GUESTS?"

Master Xavier yelled again shaking the entire expensive walls of the palace with his dark tone as the king's eyes started gaining energies by then.

"Rosemary indeed need lessons of life!"

Filling the ears of king, the illegitimate son smirked again successfully manipulating him.

It was the victory then as soon the son looked at the scene again while starting to walk down to the lobby with the king.

"Back off!"

Suddenly demanding, the king then came in action as he walked on the scene with a strict yet fake apologetic aura while the rich upperclassman angrily glared at him clenching his jaw.

"WHAT KIND OF JOKE IS THIS, KING LOUIS?"

Master Xavier yelled out at the King as soon the illegitimate son bowed to the upperclassman in apology.

The upperclassman ranked even above the king, he was respected in every territory because of his position and works.

"I apologise for such negligence, your honour. She is new and dumb!"

The illegitimate prince acted all innovative as the king gestured the panicked maid to leave the scene immediately.

"Please forgive this mistake gentleman, grant the seat!"

King Louis spoke politely to master Xavier who seemingly ditched his anger down by then with his attitude.
