Forgotten Wife: Let the Traitors Kneel Down

Chapter 9



9 have I done to be hated? The butler spent a long time trying to convince the princess to return to the palace, however, there was no way to change her mind.

In the end, the butler had to return to the palace and report to His Majesty that the princess had refused to return to the palace.

_ Why did you refuse to return? _He said he preferred to live in that place than in the castle, your majesty.

_Okay, leave it, when I feel better I will bring her back, send maids to take care of her.

_Yes, your majesty.

A few hours later the butler sent several maids to attend to the princess.

When they saw the princess with her bare feet and clothes covered in dirt, they looked at her with disdain, but spoke politely.

_From today on we will take care of the princess.

_I don't want to, go away.

_We can't, this is an order from his majesty.

April picked up a bucket of dirty water she had been using to wash her muddy hands and said to them.

I don't want you near me, go away or I'll throw this water at you.

_Don't be capricious princess, we will be your help.

_I haven't had it for years, now I don't want it so go away.

The maids continued to insist until April threw the bucket of dirty water on them.

With their clothes soaked, they ran back to the royal palace.

They went directly to the butler and told him.

_ The princess is a cruel and vicious woman, she threw dirty water at us even though we only wanted to help her.

The butler sighed heavily and sent other maids, all of whom looked at April with contempt and mockery, she did not want someone like that by her side, she would rather live alone forgotten by everyone.

April greeted them all with a bucket of dirty water, and in the end she even found it funny and started to look forward to them.

She enjoyed seeing how they looked and how they reacted after being soaked in water.

In the end she ended up using clean water since they didn't even give her time to have dirty water.

April knew that everyone thought of her as an evil woman even though it was the others who that they were mean to her, for the first time she decided to behave as others saw her.

April was sitting on a chair in front of the door waiting for the maids to knock on the door so she could open it and throw the bucket she had next to her at them.

_I hope they soon get bored and stop coming to bother me, although I find it somewhat fun to do this every morning.

When they knocked on the door, April got up very happy, took the bucket of water and after opening the door she threw the water, but when she saw the person in front of her, her eyes opened wide and she wished the earth would swallow her up, it was Alessandro, he looked at her with a look of astonishment while the water dripped from his clothes.

The butler had sent several maids to the small house where the princess lived to serve her, however, they all returned with their clothes soaked with water and claimed that the princess was evil and that she always threw a bucket of water at them with a big smile on her face.

The butler, tired of that situation, went to report to His Majesty what was happening.

He had told him to let him take care of the princess.

Alessandro had personally gone to talk to April, but he never imagined that he would have such a reception.

He frowned, he looked clearly annoyed.

When he raised his hand, April stepped back.

He took a handkerchief out of his pocket and although it was also soaked, he used it to clean his face.

_ What does this mean? _I didn't know it was your majesty.

April stammered in fear, she had offended the king, she just hoped his head didn't roll across the floor.

Alessandro entered the house and closed the door behind him, April wondered what he was planning to do with her.

"Bring me something to dry myself with," he ordered in a stern voice.

April did as she was told and gave him a towel to dry himself off.

- I have ordered you to return to the palace, why have you not done so? _Because I don't want to.

_That's not an answer, what's the reason you don't want to return to the palace? _I don't like.

_ Would you rather live here like a beggar? _Yes, I prefer this place to the palace, please allow me to stay in this place.

_It is absurd for a princess to live this way, you must show the dignity of royalty.

_Whatever, no one will see me anyway.

April murmured with her head down.

_Stop mumbling and looking at me when I talk to you.

The beautiful golden eyes locked with Alessandro's, waiting intently for what he would say.

Alessandro noticed that she was still wearing her old dresses, he noticed that the length of the dress was short and not worthy of a lady, she showed her legs without any shame, and he noticed that she was barefoot, he told her.

_What you're wearing can't even be called clothes, you really are a shameless princess, I can't imagine what kind of upbringing you had.

April wore short dresses as they were more practical when working and regarding her upbringing she had never had such a thing, April muttered.

_But I've never had it.

_You are a real nuisance, can't you live peacefully without bothering anyone? Those words bothered April, ever since she had arrived at that palace she had remained locked in silence in a room, even when she was bothered by the maids she did not complain, she had even been hurt and suffered pain, but she never complained, that was the first time she said she did not want something, it was the first time she wished that her life in that small place would not collapse, she squeezed the skirt of h

er dress tightly, she could not continue to remain silent, like a pot boiling she exploded.

_ Did I stay calm? That's the only thing I've done since I came to this place, I've been ignored and mistreated but I never complained, I just stayed silent, his majesty forgot that I existed for 3 years, why don't you do the same now and let me live quietly in this place, is that too much to ask? Does his majesty hate me so much that I can't even be allowed to live in this far away part of the palace in peace? What have I done for his majesty to hate me so much as to make my life miserable? Te

ll me because I don't understand, why does everyone hate me when I've never done anything.

April began to cry, tears rolling down her cheeks, that was the first time April told someone how she felt, the first time she cried in front of someone else, the first time she wanted her words to be heard.
