Chapter 564: Her Gamble
Seeing that Fiennes and Diya were singing along in front of him, the emperor’s eyes were deep. He curled the corners of his lips, and his expression was full of sarcasm.
“Then you two siblings an that there is nothing in that glass of red wine?”
A man’s voice that was slightly mocking brushed past her ears. Diya’s beautiful face instantly stiffened. Her face was slightly pale, and there was a hint of weakness and innocence in her expression.
“Your Highness, I really don’t know if there’s anything in that cup of wine. My brother and I really don’t know. We thought that Your Highness had fainted because you were unable to withstand the alcohol, so we brought Your Highness to the lounge.”
Seeing Diya’s faint tearful appearance, the emperor’s mocking smile deepened.
Being stared at so coldly by her sweetheart, Diya’s heart beat faster and faster. Her heart was like a beating drum, panicking and terrified at the sa ti.
“Your Highness, are you suspecting ? At that ti, Your Highness was in the lounge. Did Diya do anything to you besides taking care of you?”
Diya dared to say that she had no evil intentions because she really didn’t do anything at that ti!
She wanted to do sothing to the emperor, but the emperor woke up so quickly at that ti. Moreover, the entire place was pitch black. There was no ti for her to do anything!
By the ti she reacted, the Emperor had already rushed out of the lounge!
That glass of red wine had already been gulped down by the emperor. Those who had been involved in this matter had long been wiped away by her and her brother.
Even if her highness wanted to investigate, what could he find out?
She wasn’t the only one who had handled that glass of red wine. If soone had really drugged her, could the emperor have directly blad it on her and her brother?
She did not believe it!
If His Highness wanted to convict her, he would have to rely on evidence. Now that there was no evidence, what was there to be afraid of?!
Seeing the emperor looking at her coldly, her body was still shrouded in a layer of cold air, Diya’s heart ached. Why did the emperor hate her so much?!
Diya bit her teeth slightly, a drop of clear tear just enough to flash across her face, making her look even more pitiful
“Your Highness, you clearly know how Diya feels about you. Your Highness, do you really not believe Diya?”
Diya’s expression was extrely fragile. Her beautiful eyes were suffused with a faint watery light. It was as though as long as he said another harsh word, those tears would flow out magnificently.
The emperor’s expression was indifferent and cold. He fixed his gaze on the delicate and pitiful girl in front of him. His phoenix-like eyes were deep, like a pitch-black sea in the middle of the night. It was impossible to tell what was hidden within...
“Ha, you want to believe you? Miss Diya, then how are you going to prove your innocence?”
A low voice erged in the empty corridor. When Diya heard this, her slightly clenched hands suddenly trembled.
How was she going to prove her innocence?
There was a trace of unspeakable fragility in Diya’s amber eyes. Bean-sized tears slid down her beautiful cheeks, and her palm-sized face suddenly turned pale.
“Your Highness, how do you want Diya to prove it? Your Highness, Diya still doesn’t know what happened to you. Did that cup of wine cause you any harm?”
The emperor looked down at the girl in front of him. His gaze was cold, and his voice was like a sword that had just been unsheathed. It was filled with a cold light.
“Why? Do you really want sothing to happen to ?”
Seeing the cold look on the other party’s face, the aura of a king spread out, causing Diya to feel a lot of pressure.
Her heart suddenly jumped, and she almost lost her balance.
Facing such a sinister gaze, Diya even thought for a mont that this man would want to kill her in the next mont!
Did the emperor use his spiritual power on her?!
That was why she felt so uncomfortable. She felt as though soone had suddenly grabbed her throat, making it difficult for her to even breathe.
It was so uncomfortable...
Although the emperor did not move at all, the hairs on Diya’s back stood up. She staggered back and subconsciously shook her head.
As though she was forced to break down, Diya shook her head so hard that her gaze lost focus.
“No, no! Your Highness, how could I possibly an that! I absolutely do not wish for anything to happen to you...”
Diya’s voice was mumbling, and her tearful appearance was so pitiful.
Fiennes saw his sister in such a state, but the emperor remained indifferent, and his heart was filled with anger and helplessness.
He had long said that the emperor was cold and indifferent, but his sister had taken a fancy to him anyway!
Now that she had failed conquered him, she even caused such an unpleasant situation between both parties.
Fiennes hurriedly reached out to support Diya. He frowned and reached out to wipe away the mottled tears on Diya’s face.
“Diya, are you alright?”
Diya shook her head weakly. She tugged at the hem of her brother’s clothes. Her slender fingertips turned slightly white because she had used too much force.
“Brother, I’m fine. But His Highness doesn’t believe . I’m so sad...”
As if she had finally found soone to rely on, Diya’s soft voice suddenly sounded like she was crying. Her reddened eyes made people’s hearts clench.
Fiennes looked at Diya with so disappointnt. Then, he raised his head and argued loudly with the emperor.
“Your Highness, if you want to doubt Diya’s words, why don’t you go to the surveillance caras and search for evidence? Back then, Diya was not the only one who handled that glass of red wine. Moreover, you kept saying that there was sothing added to the wine. Then, is there anything wrong with your body now?”
“Check the surveillance caras... search for witnesses and evidence... ha...”
The emperor paused for a mont, and his deep eyes coldly looked at the brother and sister in front of him.
“The surveillance caras of the Glory World Hotel, or the wine pairing master who handled that glass of red wine, I’m afraid that these matters had already been settled before you ca, right?”
His low and cold voice carried undisguised mockery.
The hearts of Diya and Fiennes tightened. Although both of them were lying through their teeth, in the face of the emperor’s rciless words, they still felt a chill in their hearts!
For a mont, no one spoke. The air around them seed to have frozen. It was as cold as ice, oppressing people until they could not breathe.
Diya broke free from Fiennes’ hand. Her beautiful brows were slightly furrowed, as if she could not hold herself back. Tears stread down her face,
“Your Highness, do you want to dig out my heart before you believe ?”
Her eyes were red, and her butterfly-like eyelashes were already wet from her tears. If it was any other man, they would have long felt unbearable for Diya.
However, the emperor was not an ordinary man.
Seeing that the man she loved was still expressionless, Diya felt a sharp pain in her heart. Without thinking, she suddenly ran into the pillar beside her!
Regardless of whether His Highness believed her or not, the matter of adding drugs to the wine this ti had to be turned over.
That’s why she was gambling.
She was not betting on the emperor’s sympathy for her, but betting on the emperor’s morals.
