The Doomed And Blessed, 13th Young Miss Chapter 30

CHAPTER 30

 

Celeste had a right to be scared, as the ‘Two Faced Poison’ was supposed to kill a person within a few hours at most. Yet, I was still alive and still awake. So, Celeste was scared that she would be found out!

She had thought it would be over and done with by now, but hearing everything that was going on, Celeste decided that she had to make a move!

If she wasn’t dead yet…Then I will have to finish what I had started!

Talon really thought that he should leave, with what was happening, Sahara’s survival didn’t look good and perhaps it was okay for his wife to say her farewells. With this thought, tears fell down his cheeks.

When he went to get up though, his eyes fell onto the Second Prince, who seemed to have no intentions to leave at all!

Talon weakly told Celeste that if she had something to say, she needed to say it now.

“Why?”

My voice trembled, it sounded weak and as though I was just about to cry. It tore at the hearts of more than a few people in the room, making them want to look away, instead, they tried to hold in their tears and covered their mouths with their hands.

“Why!?”

This time my voice was louder, and through that effort, another tear fell down my cheek. My head had not moved from looking at the new figure in the room, that I had confirmed not long ago, through a second of using my very useful spiritual essence.

Finally, someone else did something, while everyone else was silent.

As I closed my eyes and focused on purging the poison, I heard fuzzy murmurings, that got louder over time.

 

“You are the one that poisoned her food?”

“She’s lying!”

Everyone knew that I had only said one word, for Celeste to say these words in retaliation, they all started to get shocked into seeing her guilt!

Through Celeste’s haste to clear her name, she had already made a blunder. “She’s delirious. Don’t listen to her!”

She hadn’t been here to see that no words had been said, she automatically a.s.sumed that people already knew through my question of ‘why’ and not letting her say ‘farewell’.

With someone already stating that she was the one that poisoned Sahara, the only thing that crossed Celeste’s mind, was that they had already been told about who had arranged the food that Sahara had eaten.

If only she had known that this was going to happen, she would have made sure that death would have come for Sahara a lot earlier!

Having read the information about the poison, Celeste clenched her fists.

Why isn’t she died yet!

 

The Second Prince smirked, as he recalled Talon’s wife wanting to see the la.s.s alone. No doubt it would be to kill! With furious eyes, he set them at the lady in question, “Take her! I’ll be questioning her myself!”

Talon was utterly shocked!

Why did they want to harm Sahara? Why…Celeste? Is she really my wife?

He didn’t understand it at all! Sahara hadn’t done anything to them, yet they wanted to hurt her!

She was…She played with animals and small children, stayed in the estate more often than not, yet, her life is on the line! Why!?

Looking at the precious bundle that was trembling on the bed, his heart stilled to see me start to mumble.

“Closer…Further…Clo…Ser…”

Talon started to worry. “Sahara!”

Everyone in the room looked towards the trembling child on the bed. They had all but thought that this is probably the last words that she will say, the last couple of minutes…

The Second Prince took a deep breath but never moved his eyes away from her. He gently took my hand again and moved closer, inserting his spiritual essence into her. His heart felt like it had stopped beating, he couldn’t really feel his own breath anymore, the world had literally stopped turning to him.

The ‘stupid grandfather’ didn’t unclench his hands nor did his lose his raged filled face, but his eyes showed sadness.

Samuel had loudly started to cry, obviously not wanting to lose his sister.

Celeste, before being taken away, saw this and smiled.

She won’t last much longer! Now there’s no need for my daughter to disappear. Serves you right, you worthless little thing!

What surprised everyone, was what I did next…

I smiled!

 

I hadn’t wanted to do my escape plan, yet. But I had no other choice. I’ve been poisoned and didn’t really trust anyone at the moment. If I stayed, I would probably die…

Seeing myself getting away from this crazy family, I couldn’t help but smile…I couldn’t help my bottled-up emotions tumbling out, unable to hold it in, I let a secret out.

The only thing that I was unhappy about…Was the fact I wasn’t be able to see their faces!

“I’m actually…The thirteenth miss of the Rolland Estate. The Right…Minister is my biological…Father!”

I removed my hands away, from those who were holding them, and with every ounce of strength that I had, and in the blink of an eyelid…I had disappeared!
