The Queen Wicked Deeds
Chapter 123 - Brides
Henry knew that Beth didn't like the offer from that private school. She hated it. However, he didn't stop pressuring her parents, the Smith couple, to force her into signing the papers.
That way, she will always be protected and near him. She will always be before his eyes.
"Who are you? What are you doing here? Do you have permission to enter this place?"
A girl with blond long hair looked at Beth with a raised brow. She was wearing a beautiful white dress made of the finest fabrics. Her whole persona looked like the daughter of some wealthy family.
Beth couldn't help but smirk at her. She was now more familiar with the rich and arrogant young masters. Some of them would visit the Mansion, and she was tactful enough to not cross paths with them.
Mateo always gave her a warning when those brats came, so she can be cautious not to meet them.
"Who are you?" Beth answered back with an indifferent expression. She knew the best way to taunt those arrogant people. Just give them a bit of indifference, and they will go out and make a fuss.
"Heh… you are asking me that?" as expected, the blonde fell into the trap. "I am the Young Master fiancée."
She raised a brow, hoping for the girl with red hair and beautiful golden eyes to kneel and beg for her forgiveness. The cheap uniform from the girl gave her the confidence to say those words. She had never seen her before in the house and as Henry's birthday was around the corner, she wanted to give him a surprise ahead of the rest of the classroom.
Beth looked at the girl with a raised brow. It is not that she didn't believe her, as it seemed that almost all the little girls that were allowed inside the Mansion had the same thought or delusion.
She had heard at least twenty more saying the same words, though, not to her. Now she can add one more to the list.
"Is that so?" Beth nodded, she looked top to bottom at the little girl in her fantastic white dress. "You look the most outstanding of them all."
She said with a finger in her chin. "There had been at least ten more that had told me the same words."
The blonde widened her eyes in surprise. "What are you talking about?"
"That there had been another ten that had claimed to be Young Master Henry's fiancée."
The girl opened her mouth but didn't know what to say. She was a small teen yet, so she didn't manage to pull out anything clever.
"Wh… who?"
"I don't know her names, but…" Beth leaned her head to one side, "I remember her looks, do you want to know?"
The blonde walked over to the seat next to Beth and nodded with eagerness.
Beth smiled a little, trying to hide her mischievous smirk. "Well, I am only a little daughter of a maid that was allowed to use some books, as you can see, I don't have that much money to spend…"
The little blonde had already taken out at least a hundred dollars from her purse.
"Will you tell me?"
"Good, however, this will only cover half of them."
The girl hadn't brought any more money and was hesitating. 'This girl might not have an account… tch…'
"I can pay you tomorrow."
"How can I be sure?" Beth raised her phone, "you can transfer me the money. I don't mind."
"…"
After that sinister extortion, Beth gave a full description of the ten girls. Three blondes, two redheads, and five with long black silky hair.
"What is your name?" the little blonde was finishing writing the descriptions of the ten girls.
She knew at least six of them and was making plans to obliterate them in school. However, the other four were a mystery.
"Isn't it proper for you to introduce yourself first," Beth smiled, already taking her backpack with her.
She had a very fructiferous encounter.
"My name is Reina Luna," the little girl extended her hand with an innocent smile. Beth was a bit taken back. She had never known a girl of the high society that could change her mind that easily.
"Hello, my name is Beth," she shook her hand and smiled brightly.
For a moment, Reina became surprised, the bright smile of that beautiful girl was impressive. Then a sudden fear started growing in her mind.
The beautiful red-haired girl was also an enemy. Such a gorgeous girl should not stay in that house along with Henry, it could cause many problems in the future. What if… he starts to like her?
Beth somehow noticed the change of expression of the blonde and smirked. It seemed that some people don't change at all.
"Well, I should go," Beth said without letting the other girl follow her nor stop her.
She didn't want to see those young ladies and young masters again if she could. So the time to go was to be right.
"Beth?" Aunty Smith was helping the employees with the preparations for the birthday party. "What are you doing here? Shouldn't you go change?"
"What? Why?"
"You little girl, didn't you read my messages? Master Mills had sent us an invitation to attend the party, he even brought a dress for you. It is in your room right now. Go on and wear it."
"But… I don't…"
"Don't give me that face, young girl," aunty Smith knew every expression of the little girl, since the moment she learned to pout and use her bright golden eyes to hypnotize people, she had made use of it very well. "Go and change."
"I don't want to go," she crossed her arms, "there is no reason to go."
"What are you talking about? Master Mills had treated us very well, you should know that."
Beth pouted again and aunty hesitated. She was about to fall again, but then someone interrupted them.
"Beth?"
Mateo was walking wearing his black suit and looking gorgeous.
"Mateo," Beth smiled brightly, "you look handsome."
"Do you think so?" Mateo smiled and blushed a little. "Why hadn't you prepared? Did you not like the dress?"
"Oh… that… I hadn't seen it yet."
"Well, I believe it will be to your liking and…" he wanted to say that Henry will be surprised too, but he didn't have the courage.
"Go, little girl," Aunty shoo her before the cunning brat could say a word.
Beth could only give up and walked away with her head lowered.
The garden on the back was adorned with the theme of the party. White flowers were brought to highlight the venue. It was beautiful, and the splendor was impressive.
From the big chandelier of thousands of gems to the centerpieces, all of that screamed beauty and money. The grand party was a way to make the guests know that they had the fortune to be in the presence of the future heir of the Mills Company.
One of the most powerful and wealthy families in the Country.
"Henry, happy birthday!"
"Yes, it is good that you have a year more in your life… sigh… fourteen? You are growing very fast, I still remember the time when you were a little smart ȧss with an indifferent face… oh no wait, you are still…"
A smack in the back of a head was loud enough to make the kids around Henry laugh. The boy that didn't have any caution when speaking was Henry's closest friend, Frank Hunter.
Though he didn't come from an especially wealthy family, he was involved with what could be considered, the underground struggle for power. His family was mafia.
So, no one dared to mock him or go overboard. Only Henry…
And the one who smacked him, Cedric Gilles. "Idiot," the boy with blue eyes and chocolate hair said. "Happy birthday, Henry."
Cedric Gilles was another good friend of Henry, though, his family was more from the medical community. He was a very knowledgeable boy and Henry respected him for that.
"By the way," Frank looked around, "where are your brides, they should be here fighting already, right?"
It was no secret to them that, at least, almost all the girls from the wealthiest families had declared their ownership of Henry. Even their parents were struggling to get on the good side of the old man, Master Mills, to engage their daughter before the other.
However, the old man never answered them back. He just dismissed them, saying that it was too early for his grandson.
"Hey, look, some of them had just arrived," Frank signaled the entrance. A group of girls with white dresses were killing each other with their stares.
They somehow had the same idea of dress, like a bride.
"Wait… look," Frank stared at the entrance again.
Henry didn't have the intention to look, but the face of Frank made him curious.
"Who… who is she?"
Henry widened his eyes.
That way, she will always be protected and near him. She will always be before his eyes.
"Who are you? What are you doing here? Do you have permission to enter this place?"
