Chapter 306: A most obnoxious lady.
Outside, the instrumentalists were concluding their first song, accompanied by East Ridley that had decided to
show off his harp skills.
"That was wonderful." Sigrid whispered, dabbing at a tear in the corner of her left eye. "When did you learn to
play the harp East?"
"At the age of four and | have continued to date. It was my mother’s specialty and she taught me. | was not
excellent when it cto wielding swords but put a harp in my hands and | can create magic. | actually play for
audiences in Medoris and wherever | travel to but | don’t use my nand | wear a mask to avoid being
identified."
His harp was special, Sigrid had detected waves of magical energy being emitted as he played. Even the strings
were not like ordinary strings of the normal harps. It was most likely to be thread woven by his spider. This harp
was no ordinary harp, it was a weapon.
Silently, Sigrid wondered if the harp was anything like those instruments in sgames that her asshole fiance
used to play back on earth. He was obsessed with games as a teenager.
She recalled that there was a gin which a character wielded a guitar that summoned lightning and
explosions. Did this harp have similar abilities?
Sigrid was about to ask about it when maids cover. The blushing maids organized a table and started laying
down food for them. Lanai and Sigrid’s lady’s maids that had just arrived immediately cover and started
supervising.
"Your highness, are you sure that you want to dine outside?" Lanai asked.
Sigrid nodded.
The maids stood around, positioning themselves in the right places. If she was too hot, they had fans ready. If
she needed a drink, they would pass it to her. If she complained that her foot was aching, they would massage
her leg. If the food was too hot, they would cool it down.
"You can go and eat your meals, we will serve ourselves." Sigrid told them.
"No we will not." A voice interrupted, objecting to her decision. It was the voice of Lady Ivory, Deanne’s mother
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtwho for sreason had decided to join them without an invitation. "If you don’t allow the servants to do their
jobs then you have no need for servants. This will result in their termination and then they will not be able to
feed their families." She gestured at Rex to put out a chair for her opposite Sigrid. "Do you honestly think that
they will thank you when they have no job and no money to feed themselves and their families? | reckon that
they will hate you even more."
She helped herself to a glass of juice, downing it in one gulp. As she put the glass down, she seemed to recall
her manners so she stood up and curtsied. "Greetings, your highness, it is a pleasure to finally meet you."
"Greetings Lady Ivory." Sigrid responded with a bland smile. "I would have thought that you would be well on
your back to your hby now."
"Oh no." Lady Ivory fanned herself. "Whyever would I live this comfortable place? | even managed to acquire
myself a role in the new season of The dark rise of Lady Blanche. | will be here until filming is done and | have
been told it will take two months."
A sound that sounded like frustration cfrom Lady Iryne’s mouth.
"Iryne is happy to havehere, your highness. It seems tolike she was suffering from a lack of proper
company without me." Lady Ivory declared.
Sigrid raised her eyebrows and she looked at her mother. It seemed, Lady Ivory was assuming that she was
already on first nbasis with the Thorin’s.
Lady Ivory looked up and snapped her fingers at Lanai. "Fetch us sof those wonderful ginger ales. Be a dear
and be fast about it."
Lanai remained where she was. "I apologize Lady Ivory but | am not a kitchen maid. | am the crown princess's
lady’s maid."
Lady Ivory’s face twitched and her lips thinned in anger. "Are you going to let her talk tolike that?" She
asked Sigrid. "This is why every noble should find maids of good breeding. How can you serve the crown princess
if you don’t know your place?"
Sigrid looked the right and gestured with her head in Brolin’s directions.
Please escort Lady Ivory to the dining room inside the house. | have sprivate matters to discuss with my
mother." She turned her head and gave Lady Ivory the most deceitful smile.
Lady Ivory huffed in disbelief.
"Also," Sigrid said as the woman was getting to her feet, "Good breeding is also something to be considered
among nobles as well. | suggest that you know your place too, Lady Ivory. | treat you with respect because you
are my brother's mother-in-law and a guest of my grandmother.
Do not disrespect my maids ever again. Do not take advantage of your position to abuse the servants here or
else | will give you a taste of their life. As a crown princess, | have the authority to do so."
Lady Ivory marched away in anger, silently cursing Sigrid in her heart for being ungrateful.

It was just Sigrid and East alone, again and they both could not have been more pleased. Sigrid wanted some
peace, she did not want to discuss her ten suitcases just yet.
East was glad that he did not have to tolerate the company of the awful Lady Ivory. The woman was very
suffocating. "I feel terrible for everyone that has had to live with her."
"They must have grown used to it by now. She is one of the snobby ones." She answered.

the well mannered nobles whose noses are not up in the air."
Sigrid touched her glass to his. "Here, here."
