Villainess Becomes The Knight Chapter 200 - Escort The Damsel In Distress!

Abigail pov contd.

"I am not a weak and pathetic damsel in distress!" i replied to the man who was holding his stomach and looking at surprised,

"I may need your support and guidance but I do not need your protection at all. So if you want to treat like a kid who needed to be spoon fed then you are at a wrong place.'' I reminded him and he blinked.

"I did not an that." he said, as he stood straight again. But I ignored him. I could still hear his footsteps behind but this ti I did not try to stop him. He would not listen to anyway.

"Abigail, I said I did not an that. Why do you always need an apology from ! I thought that we were friends!" my steps halted again as i heard his words for a second but then i resud without replying.

"This was my last try. Now I will not try to be friends with you again." he grumbled and I snorted.

"I have told you many tis too that I did not need your apology. I need your understanding, and your confidence in . But you never got my point. This was my last try. I will not try to explain it to you again.`` I replied as I continued to walk, and this ti his steps halted.

I thought he would finally listen and will go back and rest but how wrong i was! He resud again and followed like a lost puppy and I sighed.

I have thought that they must be practicing fencing, or might be making so plans. That is the reason that they needed the presence of all the knights but what I saw never even ca to my imagination.

William was laughing and chatting with his new fiance that was trying to flirt with Noah, and was having lunch with her leisurely while I had not eaten anything since morning as I was busy making plans for his ascension.

I gritted my teeth as I looked at him in annoyance. I just wanted to tell Kirian that i am not feeling well so i am going back. Since i did not rember any incident happening in the academy starting so far.

Before the fencing competition, he was not going to have any incident so far. So I do not need to babysit him. With that thought I decided to search for his knight but there was none.

"Where are the other knights?" I asked Noah as he was present when William had left to co here.

"They were sent back to the palace as his mistress fell from the stairs." he whispered in a mocking tone.

"So, we are here because other knights can not see his lovely dovey with his fiance. As they are busy helping his lover! Are you even serious?" I could not believe that I have co here from the 21st century to see this drama!

"Do you think i have so much leisure ti that i will stand here looking at them feeding each other and crack jokes with you about it?" he snarled and I shrugged my shoulders.

"I have offered you to not follow and take rest. You are the one who wants to co no matter what!" I comnted as I enjoyed his darkening face but then my eyes glead and I rubbed my hands as I added.

"Now that I think about it. You were looking too anxious to co here! Is it really because you wanted to protect or you wanted to see how the girl will flirt with anyone else when she had professed her love to you just a day ago!" I smirked as I looked at his shocked face.

How many days have passed since I last saw him? I was so shocked. He looked like he had seen a ghost with his eyes! I have to try hard to control my laughter but it still escapes making him further seething in anger.

"What are you both doing? Are you here to protect us or chatter and laugh like you are on a picnic. But if you still have a funny story to tell then co here and tell us too. We will laugh with you too." said William, making both of us silent.

Though he was looking at us with a smile, I could see through his eyes how angry he was! Even his date was looking at us with annoyed eyes.

"I apologize, your highness. I did not realize that we were so loud." I replied with sincerity when he shook his head.

"Even if you whisper. You are not here to talk! What if soone attacks us suddenly. Would you even be able to notice?" he asked and I frowned.

"In that case, I wonder why the princess did not have a single knight with her?" I asked as I looked around except for both of us. There was not even a single person. Neither maids nor knights, which surprised .

"Oh, so you an will you only protect William and not in case sothing happened? I am not that bad, lady Abigail. But it is fine as long as Noah is ready to protect ." It was so cringey that I felt nauseous as I saw her openly flirting with Noah in front of his so-called fiance.

"That was not what I ant, princess Scarlet. I was just surprised at the lack of staff. But I must say, your pair is made in heaven. You both are perfect for each other.'' I heard Noah chuckling beside which was new!

He hardly smiles or lets his emotions co out except anger!

"Thank you, lady Abigail." and those who should be happy after getting a complint were looking at with dark faces!

We all heard running footsteps in our direction, and I was alerted. Don't tell that what William said beca true and we were getting ambushed.

"Your highness, your highness.'' I took a breath of relief as I heard the man calling William.

An assassin would not call his prey, with such honorifics., would he?

"Your highness, there is an ergency and master Theodore has called you this instant." said the guard as he bowed his head. He was looking pale and taking shallow breaths as if he had run quite a distance.

William frowned and stood up.

"This is very unusual that master Theodore have called for .'' I accepted since I never knew they were more than acquaintances.

"Little bird, we both need to go at this instant." said William, finally looking at and I frowned but nodded. Even i wanted to know what the matter was!

"But what about . I did not bring my staff and knights as I thought you would already have sufficient staff with you." said Scarlet with a pout and I rolled my eyes.

It was not even two minutes walk from here yet the lady was talking like she had to cover miles! Was she not in the woods at the middle of the night when we first t each other?

"Ah, I apologize but I have only one knight too and I did not know what the ergency was!" but then he looked at us and then at the lady with twinkling eyes.

"But if you still feel that you need a knight to escort you, then i can only request my knight to lend his aide to ." he replied to her and she smiled brightly.

"Really that will be very kind of you. Thank you, lady Abigail and thank you, Noah.`` Her smile was so bright that I felt I would go blinded by it.

And before I could say anything William looked at us.

"I hope you did not mind that I offered Noah, before even asking you.'' He asked with so much hesitation that I did not know what to reply. I could only look at Noah for his views on the matter. If he agreed with it then I did not mind. Since, the princess was not looking like soone who has spent even a single second without staff or knights.

"You will not let the lady go alone, will you Noah" added Scarlet as she looked at him with that miserable face as he did not respond to or William.

"I am obliged to stay with Abigail" he said in the end with a sigh.

"You do not need to worry about her as we both will be together. But do you think it will be alright to leave lady scarlet here alone. After all, she is our guest in the empire!" since when did he start caring about such things! Was he not mostly carefree and lazy to think about political matters!

Then I looked at Scarlet who was looking like a perfect damsel in distress! Did he truly like her that much, so he was worried about her a lot?!

"It is okay, Noah. It is a matter of a few minutes anyway. You can always co back after escorting her to her room."
