Chapter 27 - FREE WILL

continue this bickering another day. Do not be late" he said this walking out

janette touched her pacing heart trying to calm it down.

Carlos walked into his courtroom and saw that the council were already waiting for him right in front of his courtroom, when he got there,Helen,the council head bowed.

"and what castigated this visit,I'm sure there's a problem,cause I always see your face once a problem arise ."Carlos said

"Dear Helen cannot visit me just to check on my health "he huffed

" There is indeed a problem. "Mr Morris came from behind bowing in front of the king

"and what might that be "Carlos said blatantly,he heard of the new member that joined the council so he guessed it might be him.

"I won't beat around the bush and won't waste more of your time , but it has come to my own hearing that a maiden has been abducted. " Helen Spoke.

Helen may be the council head and knew the kind the King was but as a king before she brings him down she need some solid proof ,she has heard of what the king has been doing she knows they are not just baseless rumours but each time Carlos always finds his way out.

"Abducted...."Carlos said ignorantly

"That's absurd. I have a lady who caught my eyes and here on her own freewill but I absolutely do not remember abducting her ,for I am a decent man."

"Then we would like to see her to confirm that ourselves."Helen Spoke

"Of course"

"Evans.."Carlos called

Evans came out from where he was

"I would like you to escort the lady here and please be gentle I don't want you harming her"

Janette who has been pacing around her room wondering what was happening suddenly heard a knock on her door,

"The council has sent for you, my lady"Evans spoke

janette cleaned her sweaty hands and followed Evans to the courtroom but before she entered,

"I believe the king has told you something regarding this matter and I'll just tell you a little secret about the King."Evans spoke calmly

"He does not make empty threats, so choose your words widely"

janette gulped.

when she entered the courtroom, the first person she laid her eyes on was Mr Morris and her nervousness went which was replaced by surprised.

Carlos saw this and furrowed his brows,it was not left unnoticed by Carlos

"Miss janette,you are here." Helen said

janette came out of her thought and bowed her head,

"We would like to ask you some questions "Helen spoke.

"Are youu here on your own free will"

janette hesitated.

"janette, you do not need to be afraid just say the truth the way it is."Mr Morris smiled at her.

janette returned the smile,

"yes...."she said hesitantly. she couldn't be selfish her friend had always been there for her and ariel would have done the same for her.

"you do not need to be afr....."Mr Morris said before he was cut off by Carlos.

"She is no child that doesn't know her yes from her no."Carlos said

"I think you have done what you came to do. Evans escort them out."Carlos said turning his back.

"My King ,would you like to explain this."Mr Morris said bringing out the letter.
