Rosie's Games

Chapter 65: Huig 3

"Miss, please follow me," Dorothy's new maid said the moment Rosalind left the mansion. Rosalind was informed that the Duke would arrive tonight to talk to Martin, Victoria, and Federico so she would have to go home and prepare for everything.

The Duke would talk about their marriage and the customs of the North and the Lux Family would tell the Duke what they wanted for this wedding. Normally, having two weddings was normal for something like this.

First, the bride would have a wedding in the empire she was born to, and the she would have another wedding in her husband's kingdom. There were also two celebrations and both the parents of the bride and the groom needed to join all of the festivities with them.

However, her current circumstances were a bit different. Rosalind doubted that they would allow her to have two weddings or that the Lux Family would even dare to go to the North for her second wedding. That would not only waste their resources, but it would also put their lives in danger.

So, she was prepared to hear a lot of compromises something that this family was very adept at doing.

Rosalind glanced at the maid and she could feel Milith's presence behind her. Milith advised her not to see Dorothy, but how could she not see her older sister?

"Please come in" the maid gestured for her to go inside. "I apologize but the Young Lady instructed me to not to let your maid in. You will just have a simple conversation with her Ladyship so there is no need to have a maid nearby. I hope the Young Miss will understand."

"Alright," Rosalind smiled gently. "Milith stay here."

With that, she walked inside the large luxurious room and looked around. The red carpet and golden decorations inside immediately attracted her attention. This room was even more luxurious than the one that the Duke gave her when she fainted after the attack!

She looked around and immediately took note of some important items that she remembered from her past life.

Because everyone thought that Dorothy was going to inherit the Blessing, many people had given her gifts. For instance, the Empress and even the Duke of Duance had given her luxurious gifts for her birthdays.

Dorothy had used these gifts as mere ornaments, being displayed inside her room without even caring if they broke or got damaged by someone else.

"You are here" Dorothy's cold voice welcomed her.

"Older sister. I I am so glad"

"Sit down Rosalind."

"I"

"Stop the act, I know it was you who did it. You agreed to work with the Duke to be able to scheme against me. I knew you were jealous of me, but I never thought that you would stoop so low as to work with our enemy!"

"Enemy!?"

"You and your ignorance can burn in Hell! Aren't you aware that the Duke is not an ally?"

"What?" Rosalind frowned as she wondered what Dorothy was up to.

"I've heard about your upcoming marriage with the Duke."

"I"

Dorothy snorted. "You must have thought that this was going to be the escape that you had been wanting, you must be so excited as you are finally free from the Lux Family."

"Older sister"

"I AM NOT YOUR SISTER!" Dorothy suddenly bellowed, making Rosalind flinch. "You are not my sister! How could someone like me have someone like you as a sibling? You You are ungrateful and"

"Older sister please calm down." Rosalind immediately sobbed. "I did not mean to upset you."

"You did not mean to upset me?" Dorothy smiled as she tried to calm herself down. "What a hypocrite! You worked with the Duke"

"Older sister, I swear, I did not work with the Duke. I swear I know nothing about it. I meet him just as I was leaving. You were fine when I left!" Rosalind insisted. "You do you not remember anything? Then did you think someone put something in that tea?"

Dorothy gritted her teeth as she stared at her. "Did you really think I would believe you?" Dorothy snorted. "Hold her."

"What?"

Before Rosalind could react, two large hands held her arm. She opened her mouth to scream but someone else suddenly covered her mouth. Her eyes widened, panic apparent in her eyes.

"Did you really think, I would let this go?" Dorothy snorted. "You You ruined my life! You ruined everything that I worked so hard for! If you think that I would let you leave this place unscathed then you are wrong!"

"Hmmm! Hmmm!' Rosalind tried to move but the two men who held her arm were stronger than her. She gulped, what was this woman planning?

"Hmmm!" Rosalind struggled so hard, she heard something rip. She was certain it was her dress.

"You are not leaving this place, Sister. " Dorothy gave her a deranged smile. "If you think I am going to let you marry him and obtain the freedom that you so wanted, you are very wrong. You took everything from me so I am going to take everything from you!"

Dorothy's eyes were red and wide, her smile looked disturbed. Rosalind was surprised to see her always-poised sister like this. In her past life, Dorothy never once lost herself to madness.

But then again, the circumstances were different. She pursed her lips and shook her head. She could feel Huig's presence nearby so she wanted to tell him not to intervene. She wanted to see what Dorothy was up to!

As if on cue, Dorothy revealed a knife in her palm.

Rosalind immediately struggled again. Was Dorothy planning to harm her? No. She was not that stupid. Then was it just to scare her?

No. Dorothy seemed certain that the Duke would not marry her after this, so she was certain that Dorothy was planning to do something more something sinister.

**RIPP**

Just as she expected, Dorothy used the knife to open the fabric in her chest. A ripping sound echoed.

"Hmmm!" Rosalind struggled while shaking her head. To some, it looked like she was fighting back. In fact, she was telling Huig not to involve himself and let her handle the situation!

The rest of the chapters will be late. I apologize for the inconvenience.
