Eleanor scoffed without a care.
"The Queen Mother has not condemned me for it."
"You were only crowned a few days ago and already dared to make demands," she said.
"A mere title doesn't give you the power."
"Mere title?" Emilia echoed, her voice rising slightly.
"I will take my leave now. I have more important matters," Eleanor added dismissively, preparing to stand.
But Emilia gestured, and two servants standing nearby seized her shoulders and forced her back to her knees.
They are afraid of the prime minister's powers but also know better not to offend the Queen, who can decide their fate immediately.
"What do you think you are doing?" Eleanor shrieked, panic flashing in her voice. She couldn't believe both of them would have the balls to lay hands on her.
Emilia stepped forward, her expression from. She originally wanted to ask about the matters regarding Catherine only, but, seeing Eleanor's arrogant behavior, she couldn't help but give her a scare.
