Chapter 65: Pixie Moon operations.
On opening her eyes the following morning, Sigrid realized immediately that she had risen late, it was almost
midday. She had somehow slept through the morning unbothered by her maids or anyone else.
Roland was already gone, to no surprise, the butler had told her long ago that he was an early riser, his training
often started as early as six every morning.
She put the covers away and stood up, then winced when she felt smild pain coming from her thighs.
Naturally, she looked down and noticed the glaring red bruises which reminded her of what they had done the
previous night, Roland had been a little too excited.
[Congratulations host, you have changed a major plot in the book and dealt a big blow to Emmah’s halo. As a
reward, you get to share Emmah’s knowledge, from now on, you can know what she is plotting as she is doing
it.]
Sigrid’s eyes widened, this was an unexpected windfall, she had slept with Roland hoping to get pregnant but
she had been rewarded by the system.
"If I had known this, | would have slept with him on the wedding night." she muttered. "Lets see, what is she
plotting now."
Her head felt woozy for a second and then her perspective changed, it was almost as if she was watching a
movie but it was in 3D and she could feel and hear what the characters were experiencing.
Emmah was out in the orange orchid, she was ordering the servants to pluck oranges for her and her new
friends, young noble ladies that had been invited over without Sigrid’s permission.
She was also thinking about opening a shop that sold deserts and she was planning to ask Roland for exclusive
authority over the sweet oranges. She was planning to use the desert shop as a means of competing with
Sigrid’s coffee shop and restaurants.
"What a cunt!" Sigrid muttered.
The oranges did not belong to Roland, why would he give them to her? Funny enough, Emmah never opened a
desert shop in the original , she was in the fried chicken and fries business and coffee shops.
Now, that she was playing catch up because Sigrid had moved into the food and drink business before her, she
was coming up with new plans. The plans were not to elevate her but to bring Sigrid down.
Sigrid heard Emmah’s thoughts, she was planning to go out and find a great location for her shop and get to
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtwork immediately.
She stretched and went to the bathroom, brushed her teeth and showered. By the tshe left the bedroom,
Emmah and her friends were already gone.
As she was in no rush to confront Emmah, she went to the dining room and ordered for breakfast to be brought
to her.
"Err, crown princess, it's almost tfor lunch." Lanai told her.
"lI won't be here for lunch, just givewhat you have that is ready."
Lanai rushed away to the kitchen, leaving Sigrid in the care of three maids and five knights that were standing at
attention like perfect statues.
"You can all leave." she ordered them.
Sigrid had been in this world for moths but she was still not used to this habit of people standing over her as she
ate. One of the maids, that was named Bella gave her the daily newspaper as they all retreated.
Not a second later, Cosmos and Brolin replaced the knights that had gone, they did not stand behind her but sat
at the long table, choosing middle seats so as not to be too near or too far from her.
Sigrid looked at the first headline on the newspaper, it was reporting the victorious return of the royal army. A
picture of Roland atop his majestic steed and the cavalry behind him was displayed.
The daily newspaper had been her idea, another thing that she introduced by borrowing the talents of someone
else, a scholar, Lord Philemon. This was also another of Emmah’s accomplishments in the that she had
stolen.
She had made a few changes, like dividing the paper into four sections, political, business, social events and
sports.
The first page of the social events section was covering the rise of lady Blanche, and a few reviews of the
introduction to the world of television had been published. They were mixed, sexcited and others calling it
scandalous and immoral.
The second page was covering the alleged adoption of Emmah by the crown prince and crown princess. It
featured two pictures, one of Sigrid and Roland returning to the hunting ground together and another of Roland,
Emmah and Benjamin.
In this particular picture, she was looking at Roland and holding on to Benjamin's hand. No doubt, it had been
chosen deliberately, to get people talking.
The daily newspaper was quite popular, it was the only one of its kind in Eldoria, everyone depended on it to
know what was happening around the kingdom. It was also the reason why Nathaniel was away from the capital,
he was on the mission to open up more channels of communication for newspaper all around the kingdom.
"Is there anything new that I should know about?" Sigrid folded the newspaper and turned her eyes to Cosmos
and Brolin.
Cosmos acted aloof as always and he did not answer her, which didn’t bother her.
"MadElene has sent word that sof our associates would like to meet you." Brolin informed her.
The associates he was speaking of were the members of the blackmailing operation.
"Because its a dangerous endeavor, in order to stay safe, she enlisted the help of the brewers guild to which she
pays a protection fee monthly.

This Rudkip, he is a killer, if they need to make a point, he is the one that draws his knife.
They don’t kill the nobles they are blackmailing, just servants in order to scare nobles. So far, their means have
been very effective in getting then what they want."
Sigrid listened avidly, all these men sounded dangerous, she needed to know these men in order to know how to
control them. A seasoned killer like Rudkip would not bow to her just because she fed him a poisoned pill.
Would it be easier to just get rid of the three men permanently?
