Beast King'S Crippled Mate novel Chapter 227

Chapter 227: Chapter 227: The Mute Bunny

Another week had passed since Lady Jade got executed by Gale himself. Her decaying head was still in the middle of the city square and would stay on that stake forever.

All of her belongings had been destroyed, and all the servants who worked closely with her had either been demoted or moved to work elsewhere.

As for the bunny maid who was the main collaborator with Jade...

Alice left her shed at dawn, as she wanted to have something to eat.

The cold didn’t bother her as her race was that of a snow bunny or arctic hare. But getting locked in such a cold shed with little to no food given to her was more than enough to drive her crazy.

Alice breezed her way through to the kitchen and saw the other maids chit-chatting or telling jokes to each other as they had their breakfast together.

They all seemed to be jolly over the peaceful days in the Kingdom of Beastman until they saw Alice.

The moment Alice walked in, everyone stole a glance at her, and went quiet for a moment, before one of them started chatting again.

Alice gritted her teeth. It had been a month ever since she was punished and forced to be mute. Everyone in the castle treated her as if she didn’t exist, and they would ignore her even if she tried to strike up a conversation.

’This is so unfair. Who would’ve thought that bitch Swan can be so cruel?’ Alice cursed in her heart. ’This is no better than death when I am treated like a ghost even though I’m still alive and standing!’

Alice hurled all the insults she could think towards Swan in her heart but dared say nothing as she was just a mute right now. She tried to speak to the other servants once, but they ignored her. One of them even dared to report it to Swan, resulting in her food ration getting cut in half for the entire day as a punishment.

Yes, a simple ’hi’ would make her only eat once a day as a punishment!

Thus, Alice decided to just grab her plate, put some food in it, and return to her shed at the corner of the castle ground.

The servants waited until Alice finally left the kitchen, and they all made a collective sigh once she did.

"Honestly, I don’t know if I should pity her," one maid said. "Alice has been proven to be colluding with the late Lady Jade to kill Lady Long. She also confessed that they planned to kill our Queen after they were done with Lady Long. Do you think that kind of traitor deserves pity?"

"Truthfully, I think Her Majesty is too soft on her! She should’ve executed her just like how His Majesty executed Lady Jade!" another maid added. "This is hardly a punishment. She can still eat whatever she likes most of the time and is free to roam around the castle. She just can’t talk!"

The other servants agreed with her, but mostly because they believed that their Beast King would never make a wrong decision, and their new Queen was an important entity by his side.
