“Why would I believe you?”

**  Episode-248 “Why would I believe you?”** **  Alisa’s POV:**      As we were eating.. he was passing my favorite to my plate… I like how he treats me.. I feed him the food, he was eating well… still no expression, but the amount he eats is telling me he is liking the food… this is good.. he works so hard, he should eat well and stay healthy… I said, “Eat well…”  I was back to my work.. I was checking  the new arrival with the list… everything seems to be fine.. but I have two huge parcels to check… this is going to take hours… I need a break…  I need some coffee.. I walked to one of the staff and said, “can you get me coffee?” she nodded and said, “Sure ma’am…” she went to get me coffee…    I walked further to check the dress arranged on the rack… I was checking them to the list, some are sold, they are here for simple alter and I marked their tags…. so the staff will take them to the next step… I walked further and I felt like I bumped into someone.. I looked at that person and I saw this well dressed man.. I don’t know him, but I apologize, “I am sorry… I didn’t see you” this man has a beard covering his face and glasses… I should have been more careful.. I presented myself as irresponsible in front of the customer.. especially when I am the queen.. I feel pressure to be perfect..   The man said, “well that’s my misfortune that Queen didn’t saw me… I should be sorry, I came in your way… but I couldn’t help it..” this words are not understandable for me but I can tell he is flirting or meaning something else.. I asked, “Excuse me?” I was not sure whether I was offended by his flirty behavior or confuse by his puzzle like words.    He smiled and said, “I was here to see the Queen personally as I heard she had her own work and she is hard working…  well I conform they aren’t rumors at all… and you are beautiful too… I feel blessed to have Queen like you for our country…..” I feel like he is someone of  wealthy man at least his clothing tell that.. maybe he is here to shop with his wife or girlfriend… but he is me  making things awkward… I don’t find his gaze comfortable…       Maybe I should ask someone to assist him in choosing  something, I said to him politely, “I will ask someone to help you Mr..” I looked around to search for someone,,, I pulled a the phone to call Tina so she can send someone from the second floor… but before I could call  I heard that man, “I feel blessed to have you as Queen, my grace… but I don’t have the same opinion for his majesty..” I stopped and looked at him, he has his grin over his face…  I hate his comment even when is didn’t explained them properly..    I asked, “May I know meaning of these words?..” I am angry on  him.. it’s natural he is saying something about my husband that I don’t think is good… then man smiled and said, “Don’t take me wrong, Mrs. Gray… I am John Moore… I mean the King is letting his Queen work like this even when he has everything.. Queen should rest..” he chuckled   I smiled on his words as I found them funny, maybe he was just joking around, I replied, “my husband wants me to do whatever I want.. I want to work as I previously did.. this all my decision…” I was confident on my words.. but he laughed on my words, and I can tell he thinks this is a joke..   John said with smirk, “That is because you are of no high status blood… you are some commoner from that country… Scotts gained money that doesn’t change the blood line…. A royal wife should have a someone high as their status.. my words are harsh but true… a Queen should show Kings pride as how wealthy the King is… but you… you are working like a peasant…” I was shocked on these words.. he is insulting me without even blinking.. like he is in right place and I am the wrong one..    I said with a smile, “I am glad that my husband has better mind set than you…and my in laws too.. they believe is equality.. and your worlds don’t suit your attire Mr.. please leave if you are here to insult me.. I don’t feel angry but I rather pray for change in your narrow mind state..”     I turned to leave, he is getting in my nerves, how can he be this rude to me… I heard him, “Don’t think too good of your husband dear QUEEN,…. You have no idea what he is…” I turned to him as I am still shocked to see his braveness.. who is he exactly..       He said with a mocking voice, “You don’t know?” he smirks and said, “Well.. your husband’s hand are stained with blood of the rest of the royal blood…” I just looked at him without any words… yes.. I know… they tried to harm him and his family… because of those people we divorced before… but I trust Edwin.. if he does something like this that means this is the only way..    I replied, “Why would I believe you?.. I trust my husband..” I stood strong there supporting my own words.. I want to be strong… I know Edwin is right this time…     John smirked an walked close to me and said, “Queen… then ask your husband yourself… I am sure he won’t lie to you…” I asked being angry, “Why does it concern  you Mr. John Moore?” his eyes went blank but then he said, “Well Queen… sometime you must understand warning before storms…” he said this with a devilish grin.. I know maybe one of those who don’t like us together… maybe he hate me like the people on the internet..but I will not break anymore I decided this..   John Moore turned to leave but I said from behind, “I will face the storms with my husband.. that’s what I promise..” he turned to me and I can tell the expressions are not so good… but he smiled… who is he… he walked out of the boutique… as soon as his figure got out of my eye sight.. I sigh… this was crazy.. totally.. how can people walk in somewhere and talk sh*t about someone…      Author’s POV:     Jasper walked out of Alisa’s Boutique with a smirk.. he was wearing artificial wig and tried to hide his face as much as possible… he even told her his name as ‘john moore’ which was all fake… he smirked to himself as he remember her word… he said in his mind as he walks further on the street, “foolish women…. What stupid words… face the storm with King… I am the storm which will not let any of you survive… at last the throne belongs to me.. only me…” he smirked to himself as if he was proud of his actions.. he went to see the women who was Arthurs weakness,,… otherwise he has no intention to play this stupid.. he would just go with his plan… Jasper said to himself, “I wonder what it would be to have her in bed… Jasper.. jasper… isn’t she sister-in-law… she will oppose… she is loyal to Arthur.. this would be more fun to end her body and purity like crushing a flower… what a good idea..” he was smiling to himself…     Jasper Moore, he got his mother’s surname because he was illegal son of his father, but that doesn’t change the fact that his father had only one male child, that is Jasper Moore… his grandfather was Edwin’s grandfather’s cousin sister… he and his wife always had their eye on the throne since Edwin’s grandfather didn’t have any biological siblings, Edwin’s grandfather ignored them even when he knew what they were planning… they tried many time to dethrone Edwin’s grandfather… but they never succeeded… but Jasper’s Grandfather  passed the thought to his son and his son tried all his life to win this throne and battle but never really succeeded…. They even attacked the  Edwin’s Grandpa 2 years ago… but they face Edwin and lost.. Edwin came up as a surprise… no one knew what he was and what can he do.. so when they faced Edwin Arthur Gray, they were buried in the soil… they lost their life in the fight.. they were the person to trying killing the King and his family so naturally they were punished to death.. Edwin was announced as the new King…      But Jasper escaped injured, his father was no more but Jasper’s greed for the throne never really died…. He already had some sources in his mother’s home country… so he used it to hide… since he knew Arthur would kill him if he founds him… but Jasper was now back.. he has to get back the throne he always wanted but now he wants something more.. he wants Arthur’s life and want to defeat Arthur.. and Jasper even got a weakness of Arthur….
