My Sister-In-Law Is My Mate!?!

Diana waited whole night for the maid to come back but the morning had arrived yet there was no sign of her coming back. She gritted her teeth when she heard the sound of laughter from the stairs and saw the couple coming down leisurely. That meant her plan had already failed. But where was the maid? Did she run away!

'That fool! Now she would bear the consequences. She had only seen the kind side of me. She would regret it when I would annihilate all her family!!' she decided to end up the matter in case anyone came to know about it but she cursed the maid for her incompetency first.

"Good morning, Hazel, Richard. Come have breakfast with us." George replied as he rubbed his head again. His face was pale and her eyes were red as if all the vessels of blood had burst.

Even Amelia was looking sick with her down casted face and almost sleepy state. She would have taken a break and slept more, but when she remembered that Hazel would come down for breakfast with her mysterious husband, she let the idea go and came to the dining room hurriedly.

But instead of smiling like her family, Hazel looked at them with cold eyes and her gaze lingered a bit more on her mother than anyone else.

"You are sitting on the wrong seat father!" she replied with a smile as if she was wishing good morning back.

His father frowned when he heard her strange statement. He was sitting on the seat of the head like always. How could this be wrong had she been crazier but when he remembered the events of list night. He understood what she was saying.

"Does it matter, who sits where? After all, we are a family." asked George with a smile on his face yet his eyes had turned cold. The annoyance of the headache mixed and his furry increased. But Hazel did not bow down even when she looked at the furious face of him. 

"It does! Rules are rules and we should follow them all the time or how will others learn if we will be a bad example?" she asked with a chuckle as if she was explaining to a kid. Her behavior towards him was so light as if his words did not value at all.

George's hands formed a fist but he knew that he did not have a choice, he stood up and looked at Amelia.

"Leave your seat!" Amelia blinked when George asked her to empty her seat. It had been ages since Amelia was sitting on his left and Diana was sitting on his right. Even if Hazel had joined them for a meal, she always sat in the last.

Now her father was asking her to leave the seat for Hazel. Though she knew it was all to suck up to her husband, it was still difficult for her to give up what was hers from the start to nobody like hazel.

Yet she smiled as brightly as she could muster after the severe headache and this insult and stood up at once.

"Oh sister, I know that you love father. That is why you want to sit beside him, right?" she teased with the same smile but what she meant was.. Where was your cold behavior now when you are finally sitting with him!!

Hazel passed a glance to her but did not reply. She continued to stare at her father as if waiting for her to move on with impatience.

"........" how hazel developed such confidence. Was she trying to be superior because her husband knew the prince! Hmph! Just you wait!

Amelia felt indignant when she was once again avoided by Hazel but she waited  patiently to get her chance and slowly stood up from her seat and walked towards her mother. She sat beside Diana and looked at her with a smile. But Diana was not even looking at her. Her eyes were set on hazel and looking at her with an intention to kill.

She shook her head, her mother was too impatient. She would only make mistakes this way! But she had already explained Diana too many times. She did not want to waste her whole day on her mother.

When Amelia left the seat, George emptied his seat too. But before he could sit on Amelia's seat, Richard sat on that seat leisurely while Hazel took his seat.

"......." he was standing there like a fool while both couples had taken the seat of head and the second seat too. 

He wanted to pull the man and throw him away. How could he think that as a lowly knight he could sit before a count, a noble! That crazy bastard!!

But he needed his favor. So, he will bear it today. Once the deal would be done then he would tell this arrogant couple what life is!

He walked towards the third seat beside Richard and sat on it. 

"Serve me in a new dish and discard this one!" Hazel looked at the filled dishes in front of her with disgust. The maid bowed and changed the dishes of her and Richard and gave new to Amelia and George. 

If the palace had been cold since the start, now it had gone to craziest. They were feeling like they were walking on a thin rope with the fear of falling on any side.

"Since we all are here, why don't we try to make a new start. Yesterday things went wrong due to misunderstanding. But in the end we all are a big happy family." said George after a few minutes when he turned calm again. 

Hazel raised her brow, she did not need to hear further to know that they all would ask her for Alcastra. 

Tsk! If only they knew that her husband was a richer and more powerful person then they would have let go of him and flattered the person they were ignoring the most.
