Her Unwanted Mate On The Throne

Chapter 111

Chapter 111 Unexpected dinner.

The dining room Doris was brought to was a lot smaller than she expected. A table fit for two had a beautiful emerald cloth and matching plates that were already piled with food before they could even sit down. One of the servants pulled out her chair and Doris couldn’t help but feel embarrassed with how messy she looked. It was no palace, but it was still beautiful.

Doris tried to smooth out her greasy hair and ignored the dirt on her arms as she discreetly tried to wipe as much as she could from her hands beneath the table. Mr. Hugh took the chair across from her and smiled widely as if they were old friends. She couldn’t help but wonder what his motive was behind that grin.

“We’re set to leave after dinner to the church, I thought it would be wise for us to get there a night before your party arrives.” Mr. Hugh said as he placed a napkin across his lap. She watched his every move just as he watched her own as if it was a game between them.

“We’re going to wait all night for them?” Doris asked. She eyes the food on both of their plates and saw they were laid out exactly the same. “I would think it was unnecessary to arrive that early.”

“Well, we can’t be unprepared. A trade this big deserves a bit more of our preparation, wouldn’t you say?” Mr. Hugh said lightly as he picked up his fork for the first time.

“I—“

“Besides,” he continued as if Doris hadn’t said anything, “I wouldn’t put it past your prince to be just as early as us.” Mr. Hugh winked across at her. Doris only blinked. It made her skin crawl each time he referred to William as her prince. As if he was in on a secret that was just between the two of them.

“Is there a reason you gave me—the honor-of a private dinner with you?” Doris asked. “Not that I’m ungrateful, but I can’t help but feel as if there is more you wish to talk about.”

felt her stomach grumble from the delicious scents in front of her, but he hadn’t taken a bite yet-and neither would she. “Normally, I’d expect a bit more conversation to soften the mood but I have to admit, I’m more like you.” Mr. Hugh spiked a piece of meat with his fork and took a large bite. Doris finally did the same and almost moaned from the taste. If he wasn’t in front of her watching her so intently, she would have devoured the entire plate in seconds.
