The maid could guess that Victoria was most likely angry because of Aurelia again.
The maid said obsequiously, "Your Highness, there's a news update…"
Victoria frowned. "What is it?"
"The investigator says that Aurelia grew up in the Melorian slum and spent her time with the nomads. Her parents are both illegal immigrants. Her father's a drug addict, and her mother's a prostitute. They abandoned her at a young age."
"So, she most probably isn't related to Aunt Helene."
Victoria breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that she was being overly suspicious.
"Of course not, Your Highness!" The maid smiled. "That b*tch has a lowly background. It's her luck that she could come to Southeast Aciatic! Your Highness, what… What's gotten into you today? Did you get into an argument with Mr. Harris again?"
Victoria turned away in frustration.
It would be better if they did argue! She did not know how badly Neil was injured and how she should wrap this matter up…
Carmella had warned her the last time not to go against the Harrises and the Irwins, but not…
Victoria screwed her eyes shut before they flew open in the next second.
"Hah! What am I scared of?" She suddenly cackled. "Neil hanging out with the b*tch is a shame to the Harrises too. I'm just teaching Aurelia a lesson to keep up the Harrises' reputation!"
Yes, this was what she would say if the queen asked! She would shift the blame to Aurelia, and the queen would not pursue her about Neil being injured!
Victoria was pleased with herself and relaxed fully, thinking that she had come up with a great idea.
"Alright, I'm taking a rest. You can leave now."
"Your Highness, there's one more thing…"
"What is it?"
"I saw Mr. Irwin yesterday," the maid said in a lowered volume. "He's gone to the west palace. Looks like Prince Alexander's really asked him to treat Princess Helene!"
"Is that so?" Victoria frowned. "But Aunt Helene's been crazy for so many years. It's not like she'll recover just because they want her to!"
"Your Highness, do you want to follow him to see what he's up to?"
