Betrayed By The Hero, Loved By The Lord novel Chapter 233

Chapter 233: Teaming up (3)

Juliana knew she couldn’t wait around for Vivienne to kick her out of the palace, and there was only one person who could help her.

It was going to be embarrassing to beg, but this would be her only way of staying in the palace.

Vivienne laughed as she walked out of the room. She enjoyed the look Juliana wore now. "I suggest you start packing."

Juliana waited for Vivienne to be gone, then threw the wine bottle toward a wall, shattering it and creating a big mess.

’I should have acted sooner,’ Juliana thought.

Putting up with Darius’s awful ways in bed should have been enough, but it wasn’t.

Juliana was still stuck with Vivienne walking all over her.

Juliana marched out of the room, heading toward the front door so she could leave the palace, but she would be back. Vivienne wouldn’t get off so easily.

She got a carriage and, hours later, arrived at the home of the one person who could help her.

"If you’ve come to brag about your new position, you should head back. I’m in a good mood to rip out your throat," Natalie said, pushing the door to close it.

Juliana placed her foot to block the door. "Wait! Hear me out first. I haven’t come to rub anything in your face. I need your help."

"Vivienne is trying to chase you out of the palace already? It is happening sooner than I knew it would. Don’t tell me that she caught you by surprise," Natalie said, enjoying the situation Juliana found herself in. "You couldn’t have been that foolish to think she wouldn’t turn on you."

"Will you help me or not? I came here because you are my only hope, and I can get you inside the palace. Can we talk, or should I start packing my things in the palace?" Juliana asked.

Natalie contemplated what to do with Juliana. She didn’t want to speak to Juliana, but she needed a way into the palace since Darius wasn’t visiting her anymore.

Natalie walked away from the door, allowing Juliana to walk in. "There are only two of us here, but that doesn’t mean it is safe for you to try something foolish. I will give you a small moment of my time."

Juliana closed the door. "Vivienne hid from me that Darius first wanted you as one of the women at his side. I think because he showed so much interest in you, she didn’t pick you. I was the second choice. She used me, and now she wants to throw me out of the palace if I am not carrying his child."

Natalie looked at where Juliana placed her hand. "Are you? Do you suspect you might be carrying his child?"

"No," Juliana shook her head. "It is too soon to tell. I haven’t been in the palace long, but I have been with him every night. He doesn’t sleep with her, but she says she will entertain him now, so he doesn’t come to me."

"That is just like Vivienne. She gets rid of you when you aren’t of any use, or she grows jealous. She has lost many friends because of that jealousy. You still have not told me how I am to help you and why you want me in the palace," said Natalie.

Juliana shook her head. "I just want to be inside the palace. I don’t know how you or anyone else did it. The king is awful in bed. He only does what will make him feel good. I can’t take much more of it, but it has found me a place there. Are you in love with him?" _{freёweɓnovel.com}
