Chapter 1060 I Feel So Happy
Waverly saw that it was past two o'clock. She set an alarm for 4:30.
She closed her eyes and continued to sleep.
However, Joseph was restless. He ran his hands up her sides.
She rolled her eyes. He was not short of women. Was there a need for him to be so thirsty?
"I should be back in M Country the day after tomorrow. Help me." She deliberately changed the subject.
He stopped and asked in confusion, "What can I do for you?"
She turned around and faced him. She said, "I want to be in Madam Lenny's position. She serves only one but has numerous people under her feet."
He looked at her faintly and said, "Ambitious."
"I learned it from you," Waverly replied.
"Madam Lenny is above many people, but she's not just under one person. I'll make sure you'll be under one person's command only," he said with certainty.
She saw that he had been distracted, hence she did not speak. She was facing him with her body curled up. She closed her eyes and got lost in thoughts. After a long time, just when she was about to fall asleep, the alarm rang.
She opened her eyes, turned on the light, and checked her cell phone. It was 4:30 a.m.
She pushed the sleeping Joseph.
He slowly opened his eyes. They were bloodshot. He said, "You're going to drive me away again?"
"It's already half past four, and Marie will wake up at five o'clock. If you don't go now, she will find out about you," she urged.
"Got it." He sat up and looked at her.
She had not slept, and the dark circles under her eyes were obvious.
He kissed her passionately. She was unable to resist. The kiss was rough and wild. After kissing for three minutes, he let go of her and said, "Have a good rest."
"Text me when you're out," she said.
"Heh." He smiled and arrogantly said, "If I don't want anyone to discover me, no one will be able to discover me. There will be no one to stop me too."
"You escaped from the palace and were found out on purpose, didn't you?" She asked.
The corners of his mouth curled up, and he said, "You're still the same. Your mind works fast. It's too fast for your own good. It's not a good thing."
"We are the same," she said. She didn't want to waste her time arguing with him, and it would be bad if they were discovered.
The main reason why she sent him out was because she was afraid that he would be discovered.
For fear that others couldn't see him, Joseph slammed the door and made a loud bang.
She was startled.
He was evil.
Marie was woken up by the loud noise. She got out of her room and turned on the light. She spotted Waverly, and asked in puzzlement, "Madam, did you just come back?"
"I can't sleep. I went out for a walk. I'm sorry that I woke you up," she explained.
"You're wearing thin clothes. Be careful not to catch a cold," Marie said worriedly.
"Okay, Marie, I'll go in now." Waverly nodded apologetically and walked into the room.
In the room, there was still Joseph's scent.
She opened the window. The cold wind blew her face. She couldn't fall asleep again.
Bellamy and Ronaldo were working together now. The shooting incident gave Joseph and Gollin a heavy blow. Within a year, they would not be able to usurp Ronaldo's power. At least, it gave Bellamy and Waverly some time.
Since she divorced Bellamy, she wanted to stop something, but she was always under someone else's control. She didn't have freedom.
She did not have any other contribution to his victory other than persuading Yazoo to divide power.
Even without her participation, she believed that he could still do it.
At the end of the day, she was too incompetent. She was as small as an ant, even if she were to bite someone, it won't be painful nor itchy. She couldn't do anything more.
One year. She had a year. She wanted to do something during this year.
As long as she had power and status, plus her current ability, it would be of some use. She didn't want to go on like this. Every step she took, she would suffer humiliation and shame. The results were bad too.
Therefore, she had to go back to M Country and resume fighting.
The power within the country had long been divided up. Even Bobe had refused to cooperate with her. She could only look for help from foreign countries.
"Knock, knock." There was a knock on the door.
Waverly turned around and opened the door. Marie stood at the door with a smile as she said, "I saw that the light was on in your room. I made pudding. Would you care to have some?"
"Alright," Waverly said with a smile.
Marie beamed. She looked at her with some pity and said again, "Madam, you're still the same as before."
Waverly smiled.
The only thing which remained the same was her appearance; she had long changed.
"We have been separated for less than two months. Of course I haven't changed, and you look beautiful as ever Marie," she said.
"Haha. It's so nice that you're back, Madam. Come and have some pudding." With that, Marie turned around and left.
Waverly didn't want to sleep anymore. After the banquet, Yasmine would go back for merit, and she would follow her. She would stay here for only a short night.
After washing up, she put on a light pink skirt and blazer. She put on a long wavy hair wig and delicate makeup before heading out.
Marie brought pudding and a cup of sugar to the dining table and said, "Madam, please add the sugar to your liking."
"Okay, thank you Marie."
"There will be delicious food for breakfast later, Madam. Remember to make room for it."
Waverly smiled and said, "I feel so happy to have the breakfast made by you early in the morning."
"As long as you're happy, so am I," Marie said and went back to the kitchen.
Waverly was reading the news of M Country while having dessert.
The news of Bellamy not holding anyone accountable had spread, and Ronaldo was no fool. He found a public relations team and their paid posters were stirring trouble on the Internet.
There were also people who commented that Bellamy did not look into the matter because of Waverly. On the internet, there were numerous photos of him and her staring lovingly at each other. There were also videos and recordings of him inviting her to stay in the palace.
Some made up a dreamlike love story, which made them look like a pair of star-crossed lovers who were trying to win the attention and support of the people.
Then, some posted previous videos of her to prove it.
"Morning." Bellamy greeted her.
Waverly closed the page and smiled as she greeted back, "Morning."
"What's for breakfast today? Marie is partial. Only when you are back will she be thoughtful and prepare delectable meals," he said, sitting opposite her.
"That's because I'm picky and mean." She smiled and ate her breakfast, just like before. She was gentle, indifferent, and soft. She was like water, exuding a soothing aura.
