The Queens: Scarred Queen Novel

Chapter 739 Athena gently broke free from Alexandra's hand and patted her hand lightly. "I'll be alright, trust me." 477 55 vouchers She smiled at Alexandra, her eyes shining brightly. "They want a femme fatale, then I'll show them who is the real troublemaker." "But, how can I let you go alone?" Alexandra said. Alexandra took her hand and said firmly, "Since we have to face it, then we'll face it together. I don't believe those people would dare to tear apart this old bone of mine." Athena was pregnant, and the child in her womb was the future of the Xander Manor.

If something happened to her and the child, she didn't know how to explain it to Xander. She was a mother and would naturally stand in front of her child. Alexandra's attitude was firm. "If you don't let me go with you, then you can't go out either." Having weathered many storms, Athena hesitated for a moment, then agreed. "Okay, we'll face it together," Athena said. So they headed to the entrance together. Athena gave an order. "Open the door." With a creak, the door slowly opened, and the shouting outside abruptly stopped.

The people, holding torches, looked as if an invisible hand had gripped their throats, watching as the Princess Consort, whom they had condemned as a scourge, walked out of the mansion step by step. Accompanying her was Alexandra. Alexandra looked stern, with piercing eyes. With a stern gaze sweeping over the crowd, she said sharply, "My son fought battle after battle across the land, spending three long years to win this fragile peace. The scars that mar his body-more than a dozen-are all tokens of the wars he waged for this nation!

"When the northern tribes battered at our gates, he stood at Fouver Pass with the Aegis Guards for three relentless months-seven arrows in his flesh, and not a single step back. "The flagstones beneath your feet were relaid only after he drove the invaders away. The grain in your storehouses, the fresh food you eat today-it reached Pidence City because he opened the river routes with his own hands!" 11:59 Wed, Oct 22 M ... Chapter 739 A gasp went through the crowd, and some people subconsciously touched their food bags.

17 55 vouchers During the great drought last year, Xander opened the granary to release food, which prevented the people in the city from starving to death. "Now that the country is in distress, my son has gone to Athkar, and his life and death are uncertain." Alexandra's voice suddenly rose. "But some people are being instigated by villains to insult his wife and smash his mansion here. Where are your consciences?" Some people in the crowd lowered their heads, and some were too ashamed to look up. Alexandra pulled Athena in front of her, and her voice rose again.

"Don't forget who gave you medical treatment when you were sick. If it weren't for Athena, could you still be standing here, showing off your power? "She is the Princess Consort, and she carries my son's blood. Whoever dares to say she is a jinx? Step forward and face me!" The crowd was silent, and everyone's eyes wandered. Alexandra's impassioned speech made them blush. In Pidence City, everyone had benefited from Athena, and everyone knew that Athena was kind and generous. She set up stalls and distributed alms at the city gate every first and fifteenth day of the month.

She never charged for medical consultations. She also gave medicine and silver to those in need. Such a Princess Consort was hard to find in the world. The flower seller knelt on the ground with a thud and shouted in shame, "Alexandra, please forgive me. I was muddle-headed and blinded by greed!" "I lost my mind. The Princess Consort saved my life. How could I be deceived by others and come to make things difficult for the Princess Consort?" Several beggars slapped themselves hard and smashed their begging bowls on the ground.
