Royal Princess: Doted On By The Mafia King

She forwarded the message to Liam as soon as she got it.

"I found out that restaurant is far from the city," she said when she called Liam.

"I know the restaurant well. It belongs to my father. It's a quiet place and it's also well secured.

"Jace won't hurt you for any reason he is after all a member of the Hart family and he has pledged him life to protect you.

"I will ensure your safety on the way there but in there, I have promised my dad never to invade that territory for any reason.

"You might also meet my dad there," he explained to her.

"I am not scared. I only thought it was right I tell you directly."

The journey was smoother than she thought it will be with a lot of people hunting her in Star city.

She took it a miracle that she arrived in the place safely. She felt grateful to Liam. She had left home with only her assistant and ditched all her body guards.

It will be easy to stop her and kill her on such road with very little traffic.

The place was well guarded just like Liam told her and when she got to the entrance, she was invited in by a staff.

The building was not large but it had a very admirable design that showed elegance and it was definitely designed by a genius.

She knew the restaurant was popular that tourist enjoyed the ride with a beautiful scenery only to eat there.

Staring around now, she found the place was empty even at dinner time. She walked into the well designed building following the staff with her assistant behind her.

The staff led her to the door of a private room and knocked gently. There was no response from inside but the staff pushed the door opened and ushered her in.

Just when her assistant tried going in, she was stopped by the staff and the door was closed.

She saw Mr. Hart and his son waiting for her sitting in front of a large glass table.

The room had a very formal design. The design was worthy of a six star rating out of six. It was elegant and spelt both wealth and power.

"Welcome, Your highness," the head of the Hart's family greeted her with a bow of his head when he stood up.

"Thanks, Mr. Hart," appreciated with an obligatory smile.

"Come, have your seat," Mr. Hart said as he ushered her to one of the chairs at the table.

"Thanks," she appreciated sincerely as she sat down and tried to make herself comfortable.

She glanced at Jace who had remained quiet till now almost not acknowledging her presence.

"Jace, do you have a score you need to settle with me?" she asked him directly.

He looked a more matured and serious faced. He was almost as cold as his brother was when she first met him.

Although his coldness was totally different. She felt hostility from him. She could also sense anger and the presence of a little disdain towards her.

"No, I don't," he replied seriously. "Congratulations. I heard you got married," Jace said with contempt.

That didn't sound like he was really congratulating her but it sounded like an expression of his dissatisfaction towards her marriage.

"I know you told me not to get married to him but I discovered that if two siblings have a problem, they should settle it among themselves and not rope in innocent people."

"Innocent?" he asked with a frown. He shook his head and remained silent.

Rose found this very uncomfortable.

"Congratulations. My son might have cut ties and left our family but he is still my son. He is still my biological son and that makes you my daughter-in-law.

"I hope you make yourself comfortable her as much as you can. You can also come here whenever you want. You won't need to pay for the meal.

"How is Liam doing this days?"

"He is fine," Rose replied finding the question weird. She hardly spent time with Liam to know how he was doing right now and she expected his dad to know everything about him.

"Really? That's good then. I just want you to take care of him for me. I know I should be telling him to take care you instead but my son might appear strong, physically.

"He might look like nothing in the world can hurt hit him but he is actually fragile. He will be angry to know I said such a thing to you.

"He also likes you a lot. He loves you more than himself. I hope you recognize that soon enough and not hurt him more than you have already," he told her sincerely.

From his tone, she noted that he sounded like a very worried father.

"I will take care of him as best as I can," she told him to assure him although that is definitely something she isn't ready to do.

They were not even living together. They hardly had time to see each other.

She also did not believe what his father said about Liam loving her more than himself. She could almost swear with the heavens that what he said was a lie.

"I heard your son saved my life," she said although she knew that with what he just said, she with believe anything they said because they were in support of her. "Is that true?"

" . . ."

"If you want to know, you could ask him. After all, he is your husband. He will be in the best place to give you an answer," Jace replied slight irritation audible in his voice.

"I won't be asking if he was willing to tell me," Rose told them directly.

"Then I guess it is not right to get involved with your businesses," refused to help her.

"He will be unhappy if we tell you what he is trying to hide from you. It is unwise to get in-between a husband and wife issue," Mr. Hart told her seriously.

"I heard you want leadership over Firm Hearts?" Jace changed the topic when it looked like Rose was thinking of ways to persuade them.

"No, I don't want leadership over them. I have enough responsibility on by hand right now," she said truthfully.

"That's why we are planning on making you the new boss. The responsibility you have now is based on the north what if we can't give you the leadership now, we will never give you again or give you a lending a helping hand," Mr. Hart informed her.

"No, you will. I heard your loyalty lies with the Queen. I am the future Queen of the south. I plan to let the world know about the relationship of you family with the Queens in history," she told him seriously.

"Why will you want to do that?"

"It will be best. I could also strick out one of my mother's scandals. It will let everyone know that you two have a master and servant relationship and nothing more," she reminded him.

"What makes you think doing that will make people believe you?"

"I don't care as far as I make it known that my mother did not cheat or having any affair with your father."

Mr. Hart smiled. "You can't change it unless you become Queen but your father is still alive and well," Mr. Hart informed her.

She looked down angrily. Why didn't she know about that? What was what he said also implying?

"What do you mean?" she asked seriously.

"We seek a division. The north has brought us more harm than good. They have been our enemies for centuries.

"They assassinated three of our kings in history and five of our princes. Your grandfather was almost poisoned as a child by a northern servant in the palace.

"Your mother once went to the north when she claimed that the emnity was over but she was attacked by a gang in the north.

"Our hatred go back a long time ago and will never change. We Southerners got foolish thinking a marriage could change it but no, the marriage simply made them more greedy.

"They want our land more than ever now. We are definitely more flourishing and richer than them even after what they did to your mother and all the havock they wrecked.

"They will never make you Queen. Soon, you will get killed. They are only delaying it. When you die, the war that their ancestors have planned will begin and all the southerners will be killed in a matter of time.

"When they win the war you and I will be dead to defend our kingdom and it will be taken over by them.

"Remember that the land mass of the north is only one third of the land mass here in the south but they are three times more populated than the south.

"Do think they won't occupy all our lands and take over our business. They are already doing it.. Most people don't believe that they are planning such a thing but I assure you that I got my information from a good source."
