Chapter 534 - Was She Even Worthy
Chapter 534: Was She Even Worthy
In Diya’s heart, she had long regarded the emperor as her own possession. Even if it was a slightly more beautiful maid, Diya would secretly send them away.
If anyone who could hinder her from marrying the emperor, she would think of ways to get rid of them.
Where did this woman in this photo come from?
Looking at her fair skin and exquisite eyes, was she the daughter of some noble family?
But she had never seen her before…
Although she knew that no family in the entire galaxy could compete with the Siswell Family, she wouldn’t be happy if she had a competitor!
Diya glanced at the captain of the guards, her beautiful eyes carrying an undetectable gloominess.
The head guard had served for many years and was the best at reading people’s expressions. He did not expect this young lady to change her expression so quickly!
One moment, she was smiling gently. The next moment, she frowned and looked like she was about to throw a tantrum.
“It’s like this. A few days ago, this woman crashed His Highness’ parade and was first locked up in the detention center. Now that we have found out that she did not intend to crash, I am going to get someone to release her.”
The head guard slightly pursed his lips and respectfully lowered his head to report to Miss Diya.
When Diya heard the head guard’s words, she coldly curled the corners of her lips. Since she was locked up in the detention center, it proved that this woman did not have any family background and was not from a noble background.
Could it be that some lowly thieving flower wanted to climb up the social ladder and used this to attract the attention of the emperor?
Was this woman even worthy of him?!
“Let her go? It’s a crime to crash His Highness’ parade. Why is this woman released after only being locked up for a few days? Shouldn’t we let her suffer a little?”
Diya’s gaze moved slightly. She glanced coldly at the head guard, her tone filled with arrogance.
The head guard frowned. Although Miss Diya had always been very willful, why would she target an unfamiliar woman whom he had never met before?
The head of the guards silently sympathized with Su Wan for a second, and then hesitated to explain.
“Uh, Miss Diya, the release was ordered by the Emperor. It was not my personal decision.”
Hearing the head of the guards’ explanation, Diya’s face suddenly darkened a little.
Diya fiercely glared at the head of the guards, her eyes as cold as knives.
“This woman dared to crash the parade. For the sake of His Highness’ safety, it’s not too late for you to interrogate her for a few more days!”
The head guard was stunned. He subconsciously wanted to argue.
“But, we have already interrogated——.”
Diya glanced at the head guard with disgust. She waved her hand and interrupted the head guard.
“There’s no buts. There are so many people eyeing his highness right now. How can you be sure that that woman has ulterior motives? A proper investigation is the right thing to do!”
The captain of the guards looked at the determined and arrogant expression on Diya’s face. His frown deepened.
The captain of the guards gulped. In the end, he swallowed the words that he wanted to say.
“Alright then, I will get someone to investigate for a few more days.”
Seeing that the captain of the guards was finally willing to give in, Diya snorted coldly. She raised her chin arrogantly. Then, without looking at the captain of the guards, she walked straight into the door.
Diya tidied her hair and made sure that her makeup and clothes were all appropriate. Then, she took small steps over the exquisite White Jade Mountain and water screen.
Soon, her sight could only accommodate the tall and noble figure in front of the table,
His eyes were deep and his facial contour was abnormally perfect. He was wearing a dark black military uniform, and his skin color was slightly whiter than that of an ordinary man.
However, he did not look feminine at all. Instead, he gave off a clean and cold feeling, giving off a strong sense of distance.
He was like the moon in the lake. Although he looked very close to her, he was actually very far away.
It was not that Diya had never seen a handsome man before, but she had never seen one like this before. She was dazzled and could not help but want to stand side by side with him.
Diya focused her gaze on the man not far away. When she thought of the plan that she had been planning for a long time, the corners of her lips could not help but reveal a crafty smile.
“Your Highness, what are you so engrossed in looking at? Diya has been here for a long time, but you are not even willing to look at me.”
The young emperor put down the file in his hand. He slightly raised his eyes, and his indifferent gaze swept past the girl in front of him.
His hearing was very good. In fact, when Diya was arguing with the head guard, every word fell into his ears.
Although he heard that Diya wanted to take the opportunity to punish the woman who crashed the parade, he was not interested.
In the past, Diya secretly sent people to replace the maid by his side. It was not that he did not know. It was just that he was cold by nature. He could not be bothered to care about such trivial matters with Diya.
In his eyes, Diya was indeed just a girl who had yet to grow up.
If he had to add another comment, it would be that she was too noisy and a little annoying.
Sensing that the emperor was looking at her, Diya’s amber eyes instantly lit up.
That bright and moving face of hers, the originally arrogant expression had disappeared. All that was left was the shyness of wanting to say something but stopping.
“Your Highness…”
The emperor shifted his gaze away from Diya and casually said.
“Miss Diya, I seem to have told you in person that if there is nothing in the future, do not come here and bother me.”
The man’s deep voice that was like a cello flew past her ears. Diya instantly felt as though someone had poured a bucket of ice water on her. The thoughts of the little girl that was originally filled with emotions had suddenly cooled down.
Diya bit the corner of her lips. Although she knew that this piece of meat was not easy to chew on, for the sake of her own happiness, no matter how hard it was, she would still chew on it!
Compared to being married off by her father to the children of other influential families, she would rather find someone she liked!
It was not as if there were no precedents for marriage in the divine court. She just wanted to find her own happiness!
Diya gave an extremely gentle smile. She met his gaze with anticipation, carefully probing him.
“But Your Highness, Diya did not come here to disturb you. Diya really has something to ask your highness.”
“What is it?”
A faint light flashed across the man’s eyes. He had heard this reason from Diya time and again. But in the end, the reason that Diya spoke of always made him not know whether to laugh or cry.
A shy smile appeared on Diya’s face. She stared straight at the man in front of her.
“Your Highness, Diya is going to hold a birthday cocktail party at the Glory World Hotel Next Saturday. Diya would like to invite Your Highness to attend. Can Your Highness Come?”
The Glory World Hotel was the most prosperous hotel in the city. It was one of the businesses under the Siswell Family.
The man froze when he heard that. He furrowed his brows slightly and wanted to reject the invitation the moment he opened his mouth.
“I’m sorry, I already have plans for next Saturday.”
The emperor did not even think about it and rejected her directly!
Hearing his words, Diya almost cried. Her long eyelashes were full of tears. Her voice was soft and full of pleading.
“Your Highness, Diya only has her birthday once a year. Is there any matter you can’t leave alone?”
