Villains also get Second chance

Chapter 377: Winner in the end!



3rd person pov [bcz readers did not want Isabella's pov]

"I said leave me right now." she shouted as the knights escorted her out. She raised her hand and slapped one of them. The man gritted but bore with it.

She looked at both of them angrily and then entered the carriage. Her eyes were red, blazing with anger. She wanted the whole world to suffer.

What was she the only one who was always suffering! She held the dress tightly in her hands as Cassius's words roamed in her mind. It was not the first time that the man had insulted her but this time he had crosses all his limits. But how did he know about Philip and her!? It was only between the four walls of her palace. She had not even written a letter to him.

She frowned at that thought.

No! She had to meet Philip somehow and see what the matter was! But she could not go to the Essendson's palace after last time, could she!?

But then she smiled as she finally found the idea. The sun was already on the rise and the rays of light had started filling the sky.

"Go to Essendson's palace. I have to apologise to my loving nephew." she instructed as she smiled wickedly.

The man nodded and moved the carriage towards Essendson's palace.

Whole way she kept on thinking ways to inform Philip that she was there. That man had not even contacted me once since the last time he was there.

"My lady, we are here." 

The woman nodded as she climbed down from the carriage. Her maid that was in the servants carriage followed her.

"Go and try to find Philip secretly. Make sure that no one notices you, since most of the people are already asleep. Keep your tone down too. If you still get caught, tell the person that you got lost while you were trying to find lord Killian. Did you get it" she asked in a sharp tone. 

The girl nodded her head and finally Isabella gave a satisfied smile, "then go, what are you waiting for?" 

The girl ran like ghosts were chasing her when she heard annoyance in Isabella's voice.

Isabella smiled finally and walked towards the inner chamber. Though she knew that Killian would be in the training ground of the open garden taking his morning lesson, she still decided to find a private area first where she and Philip could talk.

She walked into a deserted area. Surprised that except a few servants no one was there. She was expecting to bump into Marianne, or her annoying aide Roselia. If not her mother who was no less annoying than Marianne herself.

But surprisingly the whole palace was silent. Though it was early morning, it was still late to be asleep. Even the training practice of knights could not be heard, where did all go?!

She was feeling curious that she even forgot her purpose of visit and decided to check on Marianne first. She moved towards her chamber but it was empty. 

"Where is lady Marianne?" she asked the maids in the haughty tone. She could not describe the immense pleasure she felt when she called Marianne lady instead of her highness. 

The bitter taste she felt whenever she had to call Marianne, highness was something she could not describe in words. That title was hers from the start! Firstly it was her own sister that stole it from her. Thank  goodness that Elizabeth was killed! Or else she did not know what she would have done. But then when she had thought that the place was finally hers. Marianne came out of nowhere and took it. The place was hers to begin with yet they both showed that she was the third person! Ha! The audacity of Elizabeth and Marianne. 

But God was looking at her, he was with her. First Elizabeth died and soon it was Marianne's turn. 

If their plan succeeded soon Marianne would be hanged in front of everyone, even her whole family would hurt her.

A vicious smile formed on her lips as she thought of the detailing of the plan. Soon, very soon, everything would be hers.

"Lady Isabella," she heard the voice she hated most. But in the end she knew that it was just a matter of a few days.

She turned with a big smile on her face.

"Why don't you start calling me, her highness, Lady Marianne. Since it is only a matter of days that I would be the one that would be married to Cassius. I heard that he had already applied the request for divorce." she said with a proud smile on her face but the result she wanted to see was not there.

Instead of being in a pathetic state or being furious at her remarks, Marianne was looking at her with a smirk on her face, as if Marianne was the winner in the end. And she hated that feeling. She! Only she! Isabella would be the winner in the end!

"Did you come so far just to tell me that you are going to be archduchess or do you have any other work too?" asked Marianne, looking at her with disdain.

"I came here to meet Killian, i wanted to apologise to him. Last time i was not in my senses and you trapped me in your words. That was why i spoke nonsense. I wanted to clear this matter with my son." she said in a pitiful voice, but the smirk on her face and the pressure in her voce when she said SON was clearly visible. But Marianne was still unperturbed. 

"Should you not be in the common hall or the meeting room then? If you wanted the special treatment as Killian's mother then you should have gone to his chamber or his training area. What are you doing here, in front of my chamber? Huh?" she asked again, as she looked at her with disdain.
