The Alpha's Unwanted Bride novel Chapter 413

Chapter 413: WE ARE ALL GOING DOWN

Cherry’s heels echoed loudly against the floor as she stormed down the corridor, rage building in her chest like wildfire.

The nerve.

The sheer audacity of Rose. Dismissing her like some lowly servant?

She was her sister.

She was her elder sister!

She was the one who was supposed to be the Queen.

She was the one who had kept the kingdom functioning in her absence. And now? She was being tossed aside in favor of a slave girl with a bleeding heart and too much mouth.

This was the least of her problems moreover.

What she truly needed now was to find out what exactly Rose knew and how.

Rose who had never accepted her daughter’s death now all of sudden believed it?

Something was off.

Someone knew something and that someone had told Rose.

She suspected the same person was the one who had told Rose about Bernice in the first place.

Because how had she conveniently know that Bernice had been poisoned.

Good goddess!

That means someone might also know she was the one who had done everything.

Once Cherry got into her room, she found Coral seated reading a book.

"We’re in trouble!" Cherry said.

"What’s wrong?" Coral asked having her aunt’s attention.

"Your mother knows something." Cherry said biting her bottom lip and pacing the room. "She fired me because of the murders."

"She fired you?" Coral asked in disbelief.

"Yes. But that’s bedsides the point." Cherry hissed. "Your mother somehow knows that Scarlett is dead."

Coral rose a brow in confusion. "Isn’t that a good thing?"

"No." Cherry snapped in horror.

"It isn’t?" Coral asked still very confused.

"Of course not!" Cherry said. "I mean it is. But in this situation it isn’t."

Cherry massaged her forehead.

"Your mother has never accepted Scarlett’s death. Not even when she promised you that she was over it. She never ever did. She always believed the fact that she was somewhere alive. But what she said to me today."

Cherry shook her head. "She said Scarlett is dead. She told me Scarlett is dead. And her eyes, her eyes said she knew Scarlett is dead."

Cherry stopped pacing and set her hand to firmly hold the bed post.

"It’s only you, Belle and I that know Scarlett is dead. And Marie too but that’s about it." Cherry stated. "No one else."

"I didn’t tell her if that’s what you’re thinking." Coral said.

Cherry didn’t think it was her either.

Neither did she think it was Belle.

Belle was too selfish to let anything come in between her path to the throne.

And she knew that Marie had no business telling the Queen so who could it be.

"She knows more than she is letting on." Cherry said.

"Why don’t you just ask her?" Coral asked.

"Did you even hear me?!" Cherry snapped, irritated at the question. "She fired me! Your mother doesn’t trust me anymore and so she won’t tell me anything ever again."

Coral went hush.
