Duke's Daughter Margarita Frost Reporting for Duty

For The Ladies 2

Prince Diego has too many drinks.
He felt that everyone was going against him.

Nobody talks to him in this banquet unlike his life a year and half ago.

This is all because of Dwayn.

If he never returns, he will be the perfect Prince.

Lady Garnet is drying her hand after washing it in the bathroom. While walking she didn't look where she was going and bump into the intoxicated Diego.

"Can't you even look where you are going?" Diego angrily shouted.
Even an ugly woman is looking down on him?

"I-I apologize, your highness. I didn't see you."

'I didn't see you.'
Diego snaps and slaps her cheek.

Though they are far away from the crowd.
Some people are paying attention to what a drunk Prince Diego and waiting for him to make a fool out of himself.

But they didn't expect that he will slap a Lady who is apologizing to him.

Lady Garnet didn't expect the hard slap and she fell down.
She grasps her cheek. And spit the broken tooth.
Her mouth is bleeding.

Lots of women fainted seeing blood.

Lady Garnet knows how important is a Lady's dignity and beauty. And those two things are violated so easily by a royalty.

She sobs and cried and wailed.
But that only made Diego irritated even more.

In his eyes, Lady Garnet is nothing but an ugly lady.

"Shut up! It's all your fault but you dare cry?" He raised his foot but was pushed from the back so he fell down.
He hit his right shoulder and winched in pain.

"W-who pushed me?!" he angrily shouted.

Miguelito ignored him and went to Lady Garnet.
"Stop crying. Let's go to the clinic." He said,wiping her tears.
But new tears emerge from her eyes.

"I am ugly! I will always be ugly...Now I lost my tooth. I am even uglier! Who would marry me?" She shakes her head in fear and sadness and despair.

Miguelito glares at Diego.

"Your highness, you really am almighty! You dare slap the face of a lady? What else can you not do in the future?"

Diego frowns.
"You are nothing but a bastard of Miguel Frost. Do not talk as if you have any birth right!"

Alan steps forward.
"Take the prince away." He said glaring at Diego.
"Father already warn you but time and time again you do this stupid stunt.
Whatever. It's not like I care what happens to you."

The knights grab Diego.

"Let go of me!" Diego screams.

Giggling.
Laughter.
Insult.
Whisper.
Whisper.

Diego looked around and felt that everyone is laughing at him.
Staring at him with a smile in their lips.
Mocking him.

"What are you staring at?! What are you all whispering?!"

"Prince Diego!" Miguelito stands up and….punched Diego!

Gasps***

"Mig---" Alan can only blink.
Diego's teeth are alright. But his nose is bruised.

Miguelito's hand on the other hand is dislocated.
But Miguelito keeps staring at Diego as if nothing hurts.

Lady Garnet is being helped by her nanny but she stops to look at Miguelito.

Everyone is staring at him.

"Prince Diego, you have no right to be a King."
He continued.
"A man who cannot respect a woman has no right to be a husband!"
He angrily clenched his collar.
"And a man who hits a woman has no right to call himself a man!"

Prince Alan pulls him back.
"Send the prince away."

Diego can only stare at Miguelito.
This bastard son.
Why….
Why after he said those words….
Those people stare at him like he is an insect.

After the Prince Diego left.

Lady Garnet from a far claps her hand.

Then her maid follows.
And everybody claps their hands.

Miguelito is so frustrated he glares at them.
"Why are you clapping your hands? I am not an entertainment! Or so does anybody!"

Alan smiles and holds his hand.
"Calm down."

Miguelito frowns.
"I am so angry!"

"I can tell." Alan smiles and rubs his cheek.
"Don't cry."

Miguelito wipes his face but there are no tears

He frowns and Alan laughs.
