Chapter 424 – ?Fighting Over Her Or For Her 2


    “Did you not hear when she said “no” to you?” she paused. Though the man was standing behind her and she could not see his face, she knew that voice very well.


    But how?


    “And what does it have to do with you? I am her fiance and asking her for a dance.” he said through gritted teeth as he looked at the annoying man who was trying to poke his nose in their matters.


    He had thought that it would be a piece of cake when his father told her about the offer of Hazel.


    But who would have thought that amoner would have such arrogance just because she was beautiful.


    “Your fiance?” The man tilted his head and stared at the annoying prick who was holding Anne’s hands tightly in his hands. “I think you have not seen your face in the mirror for so long that you have started to be delusional. Go and check with a physician first. From what I can see, you are forcing a young woman to be with you.”


    His voice was not loud but it still caught the attention of many.


    Two handsome men fighting for beauty! That sounded like a lot of drama and entertainment, so many started to look at them curiously.


    “Ha! And who asked what you think? Leave us alone it is our personal matter.” he dismissed the man with gritted teeth as he tried to pull Anne again.


    This time she moved of her own ord since she did not want to turn and meet the eyes of the man standing behind her. It was… she shook her head.


    He had nothing to do with her.


    “If it is her matter, it is my matter. She is my lover.”


    “Bam!” The words brought a lot of noise.


    ? There were many who knew Den as the side of Rafael and one of the councilmen while Henry was a famous man among women too.


    He was noble, handsome and a gentleman. Many women were interested in him but..


    Who was the woman? Was she not just a maid that was recently appointed by Hazel.


    Many started whispering to each other when they looked at the intense scene.


    “Damn! How lucky as a maid that such popr and capable men were fighting for her openly”


    “Ha! More than that, she stole the limelight from the emperor at her coronation ceremony!”


    “Yes, I am amazed at their courage. Are they not scared of Rafael who was famous for sucking the blood of those whom he dislikes?”


    The murmurs started to turn louder and intense when Anne frowned.


    She was feeling strong pain in her chest. She did not want to see him. Why was he here and more than that.. Did he just call her his lover?


    So brazen! What did he think of himself?


    She wanted to turn and p him hard to bring his senses back but at the same time she did not want to see his face.

    She had never thought that they would meet again.


    “Your lover?” a look of shock passed through the eyes of Henry and his grip on her hands tightened.


    He looked at Den and then at the girl with an using look as if she was cheating on him.


    “Yes, my lover. So, you can let her go now.” Den covered the distance between them with slow and unhurried steps.


    His actions were full of dominance and powers.


    He held the hands of Henry and then jerked them away with such force that he staggered.


    His eyes narrowed on Anne who was silent so far and gritted his teeth.


    “Then you should have cleared it the moment I approached you. Why did you wait so far? To mock me!” he asked in a hostile face but stopped when Den started to stare at him with a piercing gaze.


    “I do not know him.” Just when Henry was about to give up and turn to leave, Anne finally spoke up.


    She would rather die than go back with Den. She would kill him if she got the chance but that was for another time.


    “He is just a stalker who is following me. I didn’t even know him well.” She finally raised her head but she did not look at Den but Henry who was surprised again.


    He was feeling bitter to get humiliated in front of everyone. Now that Anne has spoken, he got a boost of confidence.


    “Ah, so it is like that!” he nodded his head in understanding even when he felt that she was unreasonable to stay silent for this long. “And here I misjudged you. I apologize for that.”


    He walked back to her and held her hand gently this time and kissed the back of her hands.


    “Now that the misunderstanding is clear. Shall we go and have a dance.” he asked again with a softer voice and she finally nodded.


    If she would stay alone, he was going to budge her again. It would be better that she would stay in the eyes of the crowd.


    “Did you not hear what I said?” but before she could leave with Henry, Den came closer to Henry and threatened him again.


    “If you try to hold her again, I will cut your limbs. So let her go, this instant.” ha! His threatening voice brought the attention of many.


    Even the other councilmen and higher nobles started to look at the scene with interest.


    “Did you not hear thedy?” asked Henry with a raised brow but Den just shrugged his shoulders.


    “She is angry. But that did not mean i would let her go.” he threatened with his eyes glowering over Henry who was not able to back down too.


    “Ha! And you are just self proiming your love for her when she was behaving like she could not even bear your presence around her.” they both were holding one of her hands as if taking their im on her.


    “This is enough! I asked you to let go of me.”<!--
