I’m A Doll, But The Tyrant Is Obsessed With Me - Chapter 95

Chapter 95

“Where do you put your eyes? How can you be so rude to His Majesty!”

All of a sudden, Caleb’s scream drew people’s attention.

“I-I was wrong. Please forgive me.”

The attendant prostrated himself in front of Declan, trembling.

“Are you hurt anywhere?”

Meanwhile, during all of this, Declan only gazed at me worriedly as if what was happening didn’t catch his eye at all.

“I’m okay.”

Even though I was upset that the pretty dress was ruined, thankfully, I wasn’t hurt.

“Oh, you’re very wet.”

Looking at my dress, he furrowed his eyebrows as Noah and Stella soon came running towards us.

“Your Majesty, are you okay?”

“What did you do with the attendant’s training?”

“I apologize.”

Noah bowed deeply at the question as Declan’s cold energy made everyone unable to swallow properly. Seeing that, I opened my mouth.

“Your Majesty, this was a mistake. I think he tripped over something.”

Declan’s expression relaxed as I gently ran my hand over his furrowed brow.

“Still, this is like reducing the status of the Empire while serving guests from other countries?”

Regardless, his voice was still cold, showing his anger hadn’t gone away.

“You two are not hurt, are you?”

“Oh, we are fine. The Savior is in a much worse condition.”

As I asked anxiously, Caleb answered again while blushing slightly.

“My clothes are wet, but it’s okay since I can change.”

When I pretended not to care too much about it, it seemed that he couldn’t blame the attendant any longer.

“The attendant must have been very nervous. Please be generous with him.”

“Oh, of course. As expected, the Savior is merciful.”

As Caleb laughed awkwardly, Jennifer, who was only staring at Declan, seemed confused for some reason.

“Your Majesty, please be generous. It’s a good day today.”

Eventually, Declan let out a small sigh as I smiled and soothed him.

“Noah. Take this person, give him a pay cut, and re-educate him.”

“Understood.”

When Declan waved his hand annoyedly, meaning to get rid of the attendant quickly, the knights dragged the attendant out. As the attendant was dragged away, he constantly shouted thank yous.

Only then did the people in the hall breathe a sigh of relief.

“Looks like you need to change clothes first. You’re going to catch a cold like this.”

“Your Majesty should change, too.”

“Come with me.”

He and I led the way, followed by Noah and Stella.

Seeing Stella following me as a handmaid, people started whispering again.

Jennifer was relieved to see the Emperor entered alone.

‘Of course, yes. He can’t bring a hostage girl with him as a partner.’

Even though it was a bit unsettling not to see the young woman in the hall, the Emperor was alone anyway.

‘Now I just need to approach him while saying hello.’

However, her head went white at the sudden announcement of the Emperor’s engagement.

‘Nonsense…’

It was impossible for him to give his heart to anyone.

‘Why didn’t the old man tell me?’

As her mind heated up, the Emperor’s fiancée appeared. And then, once again, she was in astonishment.

‘…Does she look the same as the doll?’

How could that be? No, was it possible to make a doll just like a person? Even the best puppeteers couldn’t do that. Even if they yielded a hundred times, it would not be a prominent doll.

Still, that woman was clearly a living person.

Upon confirming that, a sense of defeat came from deep within her. Even though the nobles of the empire argued about the woman’s origin, it didn’t matter. The game was already over because she was just like the doll.

She wanted to run right away and twist the woman’s neck with anger boiling from within. Not only that, but when she saw the Emperor’s eyes on her, her head went cold.

It was because it was not the obsessive look he used to gaze at the doll.

‘Those are… the eyes of a person in love.’

At that moment, a fact that she had overlooked came to mind. The enchantment spell that was placed on the brooch… What if it didn’t activate in the first place? What if the Emperor hadn’t even touched the brooch?

Laughter slipped from her lips.

He was obsessed with the doll, so Jennifer thought he would definitely touch the brooch. She was arrogant, thinking that the Emperor despised her because he couldn’t ignore her.

Her hands were so tense that her fingernails dug into her flesh.

‘It’s not too late yet…’

The Emperor was hers. She had no intention of giving him up to anyone.

‘It’s rather good. I have to clearly show that woman who the Emperor is.’

After all, if the woman dared to be greedy for her things, shouldn’t she pay the price? As she thought so, Jennifer used magic to make a passing attendant fall. Seizing the opportunity, she made contact with the Emperor while wiping his clothes.

‘I should have used this method sooner.’

The Emperor immediately swatted off her hand, but she had plenty of time to cast a spell.

Now, the affectionate eyes that had been directed at that woman would come to her. As her heart pounded with anticipation for a moment, the Emperor didn’t even glance at her.

…His eyes were on that woman only.

‘Strange. I must have used magic.’

Her mind was impatient since she had to go back to Tierra soon.

‘Then, what should I do?’

The Emperor’s engagement had already been confirmed, and he was thinking of pushing ahead with the marriage. However, it was not easy to damage that woman and make the marriage fail as she had the temple on her back.

‘…There is only one way.’

To get rid of that woman.

The opportunity was only now because the Emperor would keep that woman tightly hidden.

So, she told Caleb she was going to rest and immediately called Sylla. Fortunately, it wasn’t hard for her to find the break room where the woman entered because the escort knights were standing in front of it.

“Are you hurt anywhere?”

Stella examined me carefully, asking anxiously.

“I’m okay.”

“I’m so glad. I was surprised to think you were hurt.”

Saying so, she stroked her chest and carefully changed my clothes.

“This dress is unusable anymore.”

“Allen must be very upset. He said it was an ambitious project.”

It was the first banquet dress I’d ever worn, so I wanted to keep it because I wore it on the day of the engagement announcement…

“Are you upset?”

“A little… No, a lot.”

Stella gave me a pitiful look as I couldn’t take my eyes off the dress.

“Oh, you have to change your clothes.”

All of a sudden, the door burst open as Jennifer entered. She smiled coldly, stretching her red lips.

“What disrespect is this? Why are you coming in without permission?”

“I was let in.”

No way. Declan had an escort at the door…?

It was clear what she had done to the knights.

“I didn’t know you could be so stubborn.”

“I just don’t have enough time.”

“How rude. How dare you treat the Savior like that.”

Stella got angry as she stepped in front of me.

“Oh my, there is Princess Stella here as well? I heard you went into the Main Palace, so I thought you became a mistress.”

Jennifer sarcastically raised her lips, amused.

“Don’t be mean to my handmaid. This is a blatant insult to me.”

Somehow, afraid that Jennifer might do something to Stella, I sent her behind my back.

“I thought you were something because you knew how to use divine powers…”

Glancing at me up and down, she snorted.

“How dare you be so cocky.”

At the same time, a light flashed in my vision.

“Kyaak!”

It was the first time I had been slapped on the cheek, so I was completely dazed. I was numb at the tingling sensation, and heat rose on my cheek slowly. It seemed that when Jennifer was pushed to a dead end, she was revealing her true colors.

Either that or I looked really easy.

“I’ll call His Majesty… Ugh!”

As Stella ran to the door, thinking it couldn’t continue like this, her hair was caught and she rolled on her floor.

“Stella!”

“I’ll deal with you and deal with this b*tch. You dare to act out.”

“What are you talking about when you’re the one who came in all of a sudden?”

At my words, Jennifer’s eyebrows went up.

‘It would be a mistake if you thought I would cower in fear.’

If I couldn’t stand this much, I wouldn’t have come forward in the first place.

“Haha. Since you are the fiancée of the Emperor, you have nothing to fear?”

“Why should I be afraid of you?”

“What?”

“What are you?”

Taking a step forward as I stared straight at her, Jennifer reflexively backed away. Her face contorted as if her pride had been hurt for a moment.

“Don’t mess around. I’m no match for a declining temple.”

“Is it really so?”

Now that the divine power has returned, the temple has become a force that even the Empire couldn’t carelessly treat. Jennifer probably knew that, too. So, it meant that she said that on purpose because she just wanted to hold me down.

“The Emperor is mine… It’s not for something as insignificant as you to have it!”

“I am the one Your Majesty loves. Not you.”

“Ha, do you think the Emperor can fall in love?”

Again, her hand flew though this time, it was blocked by mine.

She could do it once, but not twice.

“Let go!”

“It seems that you have bad hand habits?”

Jennifer staggered a little as I flicked away her hand.

“Don’t dream and go back to your country.”

“Dream? What do you know…!”

Screaming, her eyes gleamed with madness as she couldn’t contain her anger any longer. However, I just responded calmly.

“I can’t tolerate more disrespect than this.”

“Tolerate? You dare?”

Jennifer laughed as though what I had just said was amusing. And soon, there was a dark red aura on her hands.

“I just need you gone.”

So die!
