Chapter 469 - 469 She Did Not Know The Truth
469 She Did Not Know The Truth
Michael’s hands paused on the file and he frowned at her. He did not like what he did not know.
He was not a vampire, so he was not sure what Beryllium could do but looking at the face, she knew it much better than him.
“We will think about it when we will reach there.” he paused but his voice had turned grim. “Where the hell is lord! We need him here. He would be better to handle this situation.”
If only she knew! Hazel looked out of the window but her face was grim.
The morning scene of Rafael and Diana flashed past her eyes and her eyes turned darker.
“Sigh! As long as you know what you are doing. This couple is far from my understanding anyways!” he said in a gruff voice as he stared back at the files but this time he did not feel interested in them. So, he closed them and took a deep sigh.
As the carriage started, Hazel closed her eyes and used the teleportation spell. It helped them in reaching the mine in just a few seconds.
Everyone felt dazed as if they did not know how they reached there. They felt tried as if they had driven the carriage so fast that they did not realize how and when it moved.
But Michael was not an ordinary person, he felt that sucking in a black hole and then coming out of it.
.....
He stared at her with a deep look in his eyes as if he was trying to read her when she just smirked.
She did not even try to explain or hide the facts.
The footmen opened the door. Even his eyes were in daze.
He looked around as if he was still not sure how they reached here.
Michael walked out followed by Nathan and Hazel who still had a smile on her face.
“You are a witch and it was a teleportation spell. Isn’t it?” he asked, petrified.
Everyone in the council knows how much Rafael hated witches and his wife was one of them and that also so much stronger. What if Rfael comes to know about it? There would be another war!
“But how.. Your father is! Oh! Your mother.. They still did not know who your mother was! But wait.. You do not have silver eyes. Yes! You do have silver hair but not eyes!” Hazel looked amused at the man who was so calm and reserved all the time but now he was blubbering like he had seen a ghost!
“What in the world are you!” he frowned and stared deep at her when she smiled,
“You are right, I am a witch. But you do not need to worry about hiding it from Rafael, he already knows.” she boosted with a proud look in her eyes and her eyes filled with arrogance when he looked shocked and his eyes turned grim.
“That is not possible. Do you even know why he is against witches in the first place?” he asked taking a deep breath as if he was suffocating when she smiled and nodded her head with pride but he looked more confused now
He raised a finger as if trying to say something but shook his head and stopped.
“That is not possible not when…” he paused when he saw count coming from the other side.
“Oh, you are already here, I was not expecting your visit before I could reach here. And you even brought councilmen with you.” the man looked shocked as he stared at the councilman’s carriage which arrived before his!
“So, are we going to see where the accident happens or going to stand here and talk?” asked michael in a cold voice which was completely different from before when the man shivered.
“Of course, I will take you there.” he said, taking out his handkerchief and wiping his face and starting walking.
“As you can see, we have a lot of guards here. Half of them belong to me while the rest of them are from the council office only. Both of them did not hear a single soul coming here.” he explained as many guards bowed their heads while they crossed.
“When was the last time you visited here?” asked Michael scanning the whole area with a solemn face. His eyes staring at each guard as if he was the criminal creating a shiver run down their spines.
“It was last week and then yesterday. I visit here once a week to ensure everything is fine.” he explained with a low voice.
The fear and pressure of the incident was burning his back.
“I have already offered the council to buy this property from me last time but no one responded. I never wanted to have that place but now I am dragged into it. I did not want to bear the consequences. You can ask anyone that I was not here, my lord.” his voice was stuttering as he wiped the sweat off his face again.
“No one is blaming you, count. We are just trying to understand the situation better. Is this the way?” asked Hazel when the man nodded but he still looked grim and worried.
Michael stared at his face for long with a razor sharp look on his face and only took his eyes away when he followed Hazel who had already covered a good distance.
The path was dark and sloppy so Hazel walked slowly followed by both men while Nathan stopped to ask questions with the guards.
There were light blue sparkling stones all over the ground and walls. It was giving an illuminated look to the dark mine.
“Is this Beryllium?” he asked as he loosened his buttons when the count nodded.
“And that part.. It is empty” he pointed at the part of the wall which looked barren with many holes in the wall that showed the amount of beryllium was taking from there.
“It would take a lot of noise to take them out.”
