"You! What do you mean?" asked Hazel in a loud voice her red face was telling she was offended badly.

But Hannah just scoffed!

"What? Did you really think that I would believe that he tried to force you?" she raised a brow and then gave a once over to her from face to her body.

Hazel felt offended. She has a great figure and a fair face with good features. Many women were envious just by looking at her but she had to agree that Hannah had the figure and body that men desire.

She was not beautiful like Evan or elegant like Elizabeth. But she was sexy.

With that sharp features, voluptuous breast, lean waist and curves at perfect place, she could naturally invoke the desire of any man.

"It has taken me two years to convince him to touch me and you.. With that figure think that you can invoke that desire in him that he was even ready to force you. Ha!" she chuckled with a mocking look in her eyes.

"You know what, your plan was great. To use the gap in our relationship and make me jealous until i lose my senses and commit a mistake you can use to gain my position" Hannah spoke without any reservation making the eyes of the woman widened.

"But you made a single mistake. .you overdid your actions up to the limit that the fakeness in it could be seen clearly. You have made a mistake in taking me as a fool!" Hannah shook her head with disdain as she looked at the gritting hazel.

"Your fiancee is tired of you and is attracted to me. He tried to lure me in but I told him to choose me instead of you. When he got irked and forced me, I shouted to save myself but now.. You are mincing my words and spouting nonsense to fool others. So that you can save him. Did you not feel any guilt while doing so even if a girl lost her respect and innocence?" hazel squeezed few tears in her eyes as she stared at Hannah with an aggrieved look

She was looking so pitiful and vulnerable that she would easily get the sympathy of others and bring their protectiveness out.

But.. the fierce eyes of Hannah did not dim.

"So you mean that he asked you to bed him but you refused that is why he forced you. Right?' he asked with a hint of dominance but Hazel nodded her head instantly.

She was going to win this chance no matter what.

"But in the morning, did you not accept his advances? You even told me that you were busy with each other doing unspeakable things when I was waiting in the hall for my engagement?" she asked with a tilt of her head making Hazel dumbfounded.

Didn't the woman say that she did not understand it at that time?

"Why? Did you forget or you changed your views since you realize that you did not have a chance?" asked Hannah again with a suggestive look on her face when the eyes of Hazel sparkled and she nodded her head.

"Yes, yes, I thought about it while sitting alone, that I should not fall for a man getting married to other women. That is why I wanted to tell him that  I will not accept his offer." she said with tears stricken face.

"But when I told him that I didn't like him, he.. H.,." she started crying while covering her face.

The message was clear. She forced her. He forced her again and again.

She could see the faces of men that already looked astonished and then fumed.

"What in the world.." Ethan came forward and was about to shout at her for her lies but Hannah stopped him and shook her head.

This was not the time yet.

"Ah. That was a good change of heart!" Hannah nodded with appreciation, "but then.. He forced you the moment he entered, right?" Hazel did not understand what Hanna was trying to achieve but she still nodded her head.

"Hmm, then you must have shouted for help? But since the door was locked no one was able to hear you and come for help. Poor you, you must have suffered a lot in the last hour." asked Hannah with a shake of her head again when Hazel nodded and started crying profusely.

She was glad that finally Hannah felt like acting. She was so immersed in acting weak that she did not notice the changing faces of the maids and the guards looked at her with suspicion..

"Too bad! Now do you want to go to the judgment court of his majesty or do you want to claim your right in commoners courts since you are not a noble. Hmm?" Hannah was asking the same sweet voice but the face of the woman hardened.

"What do you mean? Who is not noble here? I am the daughter of a baron while your origins are not known!" she said in a fuming rage as if the girl who was crying so much was someone else not her.

That opened the eyes of all the staff who were looking at Ethan with strange eyes.

They felt embarrassed and bowed their heads.

"You are.. No! Miss Hazel, there are some mistakes. You are not a noble anymore but you were a noble. The moment you dared to lie to a duke and his wife, not only you but your whole family was stripped of your title." there was a look of arrogance and dominance in her voice.

"The room is never closed. If it had been, I would not have been able to enter."

pAnD a(-)n0ve1.com "The room is not soundproof. Only a week ago we had called the artisan to look into the matter since we did not want our voice to go out but it did not work out and we were thinking of changing the room for that reason.. And lastly.. It had only been twenty minutes since Ethan entered the room.. It is too little for him to be done, I am telling you by experience!"
