My Emotionless Goddess

Justin arrived at the venue with the entourage escorting him together with the King. He helped him out and supported him to the podium. The king’s health was deteriorating and he seemed to be getting weaker. Despite his poor health, his kingly Aura still leaked forcing everybody to bow to him.

The podium was slightly raised allowing the king to have a view of the whole decorated arena. After helping the king settle down, Justin then sat at the chair right to the King. That was his rightful position as the crown prince of the country. At first, he was reluctant to sit there knowing that position was no longer his but after seeing the look the king shot at him, he immediately sat down.

The left side was reserved to the queen who was yet to arrive. It was always known that the Queen loved a grand entrance. She loved it when the whole attention was directed to her so she often arrived later when everyone was settled. Nikolai sat at the far end next to the queen’s seat.

The minister of defence also vying for the congressman in the next election snickered upon seeing the royals acting all dignified. He hated them to the core. He had worked diligently for the government hoping that his hard work would be recognized but the king remained oblivious to his efforts. He always wanted to be elected as the prime minister, the second In command after the king but that has remained to be a dream.

The queen came to him one time seeking his collaboration to usurp the throne and he agreed immediately. He had always thought of doing that but lacked trusted allies. Now that the queen who was the closest to the King was willing to join hands with him, why wouldn’t he agree.C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.

But the thirst of power had clouded him and he betrayed his country. He collaborated with the rebels and planned to harm the people. He went against the oath he took when taking over the defence unit. He now no longer wished to become the prime minister, but the king. Today was finally the day that all his years of planning will bear fruits.

He will abolish monarchy and make the country a democratic country. He planned to create history with his achievement. He was hellbent on achieving his goal that he never cared about whose life will be Lost… whose blood will be shed.. whose family will be broken… Which children will he leave homeless.. how many children will become orphans.

As Long as his goal was achieved, he termed the losses as mere collateral damage. Truly, his logic was twisted. In his mind he was doing the country a huge favour.

As per usual, every national events, performances were a not missing item. Countless groups came to perform ànd finally, it was time for the closing dance. Everybody interested in dancing was allowed to participate. The minister of defence was in a good mood today, afterall he could smell his victory in a few hours to come so why not indulge himself. He paired himself with One of the female dancers and started swaying to the music.

The queen chose to make her entrance at this point. Today, she wasn’t flashy at all. She wore a red cheongsam, with little feathers embroidered on it. Her hair was packed in a simple bun and her face was makeup free. She was not wearing her usual sparkling diamonds. Looking at her, everybody held their breath. She was the perfect description of pure and untainted, like a blooming lotus flower in the pond.

The King of course was not left behind. He was stunned after seeing her. Why was he seeing the image of his late wife in the queen? He wondered but quickly shook his head to clear those stupid ideas from his head.

” Father, don’t you think the queen looks different today?” Justin leaned on to ask his father who seemed distracted watching the queen making her entrance.

Nikolai, who was a few metres away, heard that and his heart sank. If Justin could point out that fact, didn’t that mean that their plan would be uncovered. He hoped not to, otherwise he didn’t know how to deal with the consequences.

He immediately thought of Miranda’s questions whether his plan was feasible and the threat of his life and he shivered. Even with the hot sun, Nikolai felt Cold.

Actually he didn’t know the woman he had hired to impersonate the queen. He had Made a background check on her and nothing was alarming. She was a woman who harboured deep hatred for the queen. After investigating, he found that the husband to the lady had an affair with the queen and when everything blew Into proportion, the man had sacrificed himself to save the queen leaving behind a pregnant wife with no one to support her. That was why he thought that she was perfect for the task.

But now he regretted not being comprehensive in his background checking. He just prayed that she stayed loyal to him.

Mina, who was disguised as the queen, was about to take the last staircase to the podium but for some reason, she halted, then turned and headed straight to the dance floor. It was no secret that the queen sucked in dancing. No matter how many dance classes she took, she couldn’t seem to relate to the dancing. Seeing her walking to the dance floor, everybody was surprised, the king was not excluded.

” What is she trying to do? Does she want to be embarrassed so much?” Justin muttered. It’s true he never liked that woman, but he wouldn’t want her making a fool of herself In Front of the cameras.

Nikolai clenched his fists. He wondered what the woman was trying to achieve by doing that. He wished he could just walk and turn her to look at him. Only that way could he still know if she was still game.

Mira, oblivious of What others were thinking, walked to the dance floor, her eyes set to the congressMan. She walked and stopped two steps away from him.

” May I have this dance?” She politely asked, extending her arm and bowing slightly like a gentleman. The minister was momentarily stunned but recovered immediately and chuckled.

” It’s my pleasure.” He replied taking her arm in his and they started swaying to the music. The lady who was earlier dancing with him seeing this stomped her foot angrily and walked away.

” Your dance partner seems angry at you.” Mira stated the obliviousness.

” Since when did her highness care about what others feel?” The minister replied.

They continued dancing quietly until Mira decided to break the silence.

” Is everything ready?”

” it is, we are only waiting for the right time to strike.”
