446 Waste Of Assets

Anne woke up early in the morning. She did not want to face Hazel and hear her questions when she knew that she was being irrational here. f𝐫𝑒𝗲𝙬𝒆𝚋𝐧૦𝘃𝗲l.c𝚘𝘮

As she walked out of the main palace, instead of going out, she walked towards the garden.

She had seen many men working here and a few of them staring at her often.

She did not care if her lover would be a commoner. She felt that she was a commoner herself.

As she reached closer to the stables, she stopped there and stared at the man who was washing horses. He was bare chest and had a good body maybe due to his constant workout in the stables.

He looked fine too. As long as he does not have a nasty personality, it will work out well.

With that thought, she nodded her head as if her assessment was already positive.

Feeling the strong gaze of a woman, the man paused and bowed his head in front of her.

“Oh, my lady! Do you need a horse for a ride?” asked the man with a respectful smile on his face.

.....

He looked like a fine man and she smiled, making the man confused.

“No! I am looking for a date.” f𝔯ee𝘸𝘦𝚋𝒏oѵ𝐞l.c𝒐𝓂

“.......” the man paused and stared dumbfounded for a second before coughing.

“That, I think I misheard the lady.” his face turned redder instantly as he looked away.

“I have a wonderful collection of horses. If you want to try, I can suggest a good mare. The black one here…”

“You did not hear wrong. I do not need a horse but I need a man to go out with. Are you single?” she asked again with the tilt of her head.

He gasped. But when he looked at her, he didn’t feel any kind of feeling on her face. Should a woman be this cold when she is confessing to a man?

“Umm, are you.. Do you have a liking for me, my lady?” he stuttered as he looked at her. No matter how he looked at her, she was so damn beautiful, a woman that could never be considered of his league.

Not to forget that she was like a sister to the new emperor. How could he dare to be with someone like her.

He kept staring at her. The more he stared, the more he found it impossible.

But the girl had different ideas in her mind.

“No! But if we go out and get to know each other, feelings can develop with time. Even if they are not, it is fine as long as we respect each other. Not every couple is in love with each other. Are they?” she asked with a confused look on her face when he felt at a loss of words again.

“Then are you looking for an arranged marriage, my lady. If that is the case, should you not be looking for a noble man? I am just a stable keeper. I do not have any wealth or power that i can offer you.” he said with a soft voice as if he was explaining to a child when her eyes narrowed.

“You are handsome. Your hair suits my style and you have a strong body that is pleasing to look at. I do not need anything else.

And no! I am not looking for an arranged marriage but a boyfriend. Marriage is still a thing in the future. Now if you are done with your questionnaires, will you come with me on a date?” she asked again as she crossed her hands in front of her chest and looked at him with a look of impatience when he took a deep breath.

“All.. alright. If you say so. But I think you will be disappointed in my lady. I did not have money to take you out.” he let go of the brush in his hands and took a step forward when he noticed that he was not even wearing clothes.

Was that why the woman stopped in front of him? He had seen her with another handsome man recently.

He had thought they were already a couple but he was not sure anymore.

He scratched the back of his head when she did not stay a word but kept staring at him as if he was a piece of meat.

“I.. shall i go and wear clothes so that we could go out on a date as you asked?” he asked in a soft voice to gain her attention when she finally looked away from his chest to his face and nodded her head.

“And you do not need to worry about money, I have plenty of it even if your majesty does not support us in the future.” she said with a proud look on her face when the man did not know how to reply to that.

Was it not the responsibility of a man to earn and a woman to take care of the house? Suddenly he felt like he was treated like a maiden when he looked at her domineering face.

“Then.. i. I will count on you.” He himself did not know what he was muttering anymore as he went into the stables and wore his shirt.

It was dusty and rugged. He sighed. But since the woman did not care, why should he be worried about such a thing?

He took a deep breath when his heart started to race and came out.

Part of his mind was thinking she would tell him that it was all just a joke, but part of him wanted this to be true.

She was pretty, kind, rich and smart. He could not hope for any better. It was just his luck that was bright today.

“Are you done?” she asked in the same indifferent voice when he nodded with a bashed look on his face.

Yes the roles had really changed.

She nodded as she looked at his clothes.

“Too bad!” she shook her head when he tried to hide the stain with his hands “what a waste of your true assets!”
