Saving The Abandoned Empress-Chapter 151 - 151 "Cheating On Him"

151 “Cheating On Him”

Sensing the cold atmosphere, Brayden understood that he should stop now and let the emperor alone for sometime to calm down.

“I will excuse myself now, Your Majesty.”

Brayden spoke as he closed the bedroom door worriedly after glancing at the emperor, who was in a daze.

Cathain tried his best to remember but all he could recall is how she looked as a 12 year old and how she looks now.

‘Why is her expression like this?’

A throbbing pain poked on his heart as he stared at the picture infront of him.

Then he just pulled down the cloth to cover the picture again laid down on his bed with a heavy headache.

But he just continued to toss around as he couldn’t fall asleep.

Everytime he closed his eyes, her shocked expression from last night and her indifferent attitude today kept repeating in his mind.

.....

Specially how soft her lips were, when they kissed.

Getting irritated, Cathain sat up on the bed and covered his blushing face in his palm.

‘Just what should i do with you...’

On the other hand~

“Kitty...jump down! I will catch you!”

Jennifer spoke as she spread her arms towards the kitten which was struck at a high tree branch.

But no matter how much she tried, the kitten was afraid of jumping down.

‘I can’t ignore now that i have seen it.’

With a sigh, Jennifer looked around to find someone to help but the whole garden was empty as it was lunch time.

In the end, Jennifer decided to grab a ladder and climb up the tree by herself to save the kitten.

“Kitten... Come to me now...”

Jennifer spoke in a sweet voice as she approached the kitten and tried to touch it.

But unfortunately, the kitten scratched her as it jump down on the ground; which made Jennifer lose her balance.

‘Oh no! Am going to fall!!!’

‘You ungrateful kitten!!’

Jennifer closed her eyes tightly as she fall and a figure rushed towards her, with a blue cape floating in air as the person speed up to catch her.

The person caught Jennifer but to her surprise, both of them fall together on the ground.

“!!!”

Jennifer was shocked as her lips accidentally touched the person’s cheeks, who was beneath her.

Her actions made the person tense up and the hands which was wrapped around her waist tightened in shock.

Jennifer’s face turned red and she abruptly tried to get away but her dress was stuck, which made her unable to get up properly.

“A-Am sorry! I-It wasn’t intensional!”

Jennifer spoke as she tried to explain but she was even more embarrassed after seeing the person beneath her.

“...”

‘Eleanora?!’

The person who rushed to catch the falling Jennifer was no one else but Eleanora, which was quite hard to believe.

To Eleanora, she should the person who messed up her whole life.

Snatched away her love, destroyed her family, harmed her children and killed her.

Why would she save her?

Jennifer widened her caramel brown eyes as she stared at the girl beneath her, whose face was flushed red in embarrassment as she looked away another way to avoid Jennifer’s gaze.

“L-Lady Raven... Can you-”

Eleanora spoke in a low voice as she was embarrassed because of their position.

Previously, she spotted Jennifer on the garden after she finished her lunch and was returning to her father’s office.

She stopped on her steps and continued to watch Jennifer with an mixed emotion.

She should hate her, right?

Then why she is not hating or taking revenge on her?

Why does she feels familiar with her?

Eleanora clearly hates Duke Raven but she is friends with his son where she feels nothing towards his daughter who plotted to kill her in her previous life.

‘I only want to live and keep my family save.’

‘I have already given up on him, take him if you want... I won’t care.’

Eleanora thought as she kept observing Jennifer but then, she finally noticed her falling down and rushed to her.

‘Why does this scene feels familiar?’

If she is not wrong then this should have happen before.

It was before Jennifer’s identity as the duke’s daughter was revealed.

While working in the garden, Jena had accidentally fall down from the tree and the emperor happened to be pass by.

He wrapped her up in his arms and protected her from being injured.

The empress, who was left behind by the emperor to save another girl, clenched the hem of her dress as she tried to hold back her feelings.

There was no emotion in her face but her blue eyes become more colder as she stared at the person infront of her, who was in her man’s arm.

‘I should have let him catch her this time too... Why did i interfered?!’

Eleanora thought as she tried to get up with a sigh.

But before she could help Jennifer to get away from her, a cold voice came from behind of her.

“What are you two doing?”

Both of them lifted their head to see the tall person infront of them, who looked down on them.

The sunlight fall on him and from their views, they could only see his bloody red eyes.

‘...’

‘...’

‘Oh, the hero is late. His beauty was saved by another beauty.’

‘The emperor- won’t be jealous of a girl, right?’

This is what Eleanora amd Jennifer thought, where Cathain thought the complete another thing.

‘Don’t tell me... My fiancee is cheating on me with a girl and this is why she doesn’t loves me-‘

Cathain felt like the sky has fallen over his head as he thought of that.

‘That can’t be...’

‘Am more handsome and strong then a girl... How can i lose to a girl?!’

But then, Cathain’s eyes turned colder as he noticed the lipstick mark on Eleanora’s white cheeks.

Instantly the atmosphere turned cold and dark.

Cathain turned around with a sneer amd walked away, which confused both of them.

But they was even more shocked when Jennifer was suddenly lifted up on the air by Cathain.

“Kya!!”

His sudden action had made Jennifer, who was only 5 fit tall scared as Cathain, who was 6 fit 4 grabbed her upper arms to lift her up.

Everything looked high and Jennifer was scared of the high.

Where, Eleanora looked at them with astonished face which contained a little pain.

‘Although he didn’t hugged her or pulled her up gently, but he still choosed to help her like before...’

.....

‘He has lost his memories, so he might have fallen for her now as before...’

‘What are you expecting, Eleanora-‘

But then Eleanora felt weightless and her blue eyes widened in surprise.

‘What?!’

Eleanora stared at Cathain’s side profile in amusement as she couldn’t believe what was happening.

He had grabbed Jennifer first so that he could carry Eleanora after that as Jennifer was above her.

Just by the sight of seeing someone else so close to her made his blood boil in anger.

“Y-Your Majesty! Put me down!” fre𝑒𝘸𝚎𝚋n૦ѵℯl.c𝒐𝘮

“Why? You wanna stay beneath her more?”

“...”

‘What does he even mean by it?!’

Eleanora tried to hold back her anger and talk nicely to him as he is the emperor who doesn’t remember anything from the past.

He is no longer the Ain, who helped her to train swordmanship.

This current Cathain might execute her right away if she is not careful with her words.

“Please, put me down. I can walk... You should cheak on Lady Raven-”

“What if i don’t?”

Cathain cut off Eleanora’s words without caring about whichever Radish lady she was referring to.

“You-!”

Eleanora’s face turned more flushed because of anger and embarrassment as she glared at Cathain furiously.

‘What is he up to do again?!’

But her flushed face looked so cute that Cathain couldn’t help but chuckle a little.

‘I wanna pinch her cheeks, She is really cute...’

Although his face was still the same, but Eleanora didn’t failed to see his smile.

‘Why is he smiling like some idiot?’

Eleanora was speechless to see him smiling and couldn’t find any words to speak.

She gave up struggling and burried her face into his chest to hide her face.

Which made Cathain smrik in satisfaction.

Jennifer, who was sitting on the ground also looked at them with surprise.

A warm feeling spread on her heart as she saw them together and her lips curled up a little into a smile.

‘I wish you will get the happiness and love which i snatched away from you before, Her Majesty.’

‘You don’t need the empress crown to rule, you will rule in everyone’s heart because of your kindness.’

Jennifer thought as she saw Cathain walked out of the garden with Eleanora in his arms.

She tried to get up but then realised her ankle has been sprained.

‘What should i do now...’

Jennifer felt tensed as there was no one around her but then a big palm came into her view.

“Do you need help?”
