Beast King'S Crippled Mate novel Chapter 58

Chapter 58: Chapter 58: Don’t you dare to fool my husband! (II)

The merchant from Rianel realized that his friend had no way to counter this woman’s word, so he tried to take over the conversation before they were put at a disadvantage.

"Ah, it seems that Your Highness is keen on the fashion trend in Holy Achate. May I know if you are part of a small baron family? Or maybe if you’re close friends with Princess Aria?" The merchant asked with a devious smile. "However, the trend in the Rianel Kingdom is different. The aristocrats in Holy Achate love pearls, but we are not. The nobles in Rianel Kingdom only wear them whenever they have a celebration in Holy Achate, to pay respect to Queen Anastasia and Princess Aria, who love pearls so much."

Swan shifted her burning gaze towards the merchant from the Rianel Kingdom. She was infuriated at this man who still dared to lie just to fool Gale.

"Princess Lily ordered a wedding dress embedded with a hundred round pearls. It costs roughly two hundred gold coins, and she will wear it for her wedding, which will be held next summer," Swan said. "Unless Princess Lily decides to throw away that dress because it’s not in trend anymore, then my husband can send an envoy to check at the wedding later to see if you’re lying or not."

"That—" the merchant from Holy Rianel was also left speechless because this woman knew so much. The dress was supposed to be a secret that only the royal family from the Rianel Kingdom knew.

Swan knew everything because she had been kept around Aria or Queen Anastasia for entertainment. Usually, they would force her to sit on the ground next to the garden pavilion, and they would throw her leftovers from the tea party.

She was treated like a dog for their amusement, and she couldn’t help listening to them gloat about their expensive items.

Thus, Swan remembered every single detail, like whenever Aria and Lily talked about Lily’s upcoming wedding, or whenever Queen Anastasia talked to Queen Ramiere about kingdom matters.

They didn’t see her as a threat because she was supposed to be a crippled dog who ate their tea party leftovers.

Fortunately, she remembered everything and was able to protect her husband from being fooled.

"None of their pearls are as good as the ones in the sack. If you think that you can buy it for fifty silver coins, then you can turn back and leave. I will not let you two fool my husband!" Swan yelled as hard as she could until her voice echoed inside the throne room.

The merchants were silenced as they began to lower their gaze in embarrassment. They didn’t expect that timid woman to have so much information and would put them in a checkmate.

Gale had been silent the whole time, but his eyes were on Swan the whole time.

Swan’s chest heaved, her body shook right after she yelled at the merchants, and her eyes were glazed with tears as she had exerted so much strength to fight her nervousness.

He didn’t care about the value of those pearls, as he wouldn’t lose anything by selling them for a cheap price, but Swan defended him.
