Beast King'S Crippled Mate novel Chapter 270

Chapter 270: Chapter 270: The Beautiful and Innocent Meredith (II)

He could’ve just rejected that request and kicked this woman out, but her petite figure reminded him of his beloved Swan, and thus automatically gave her a pity point from Gale.

Hence, he began to consider giving her a temporary residence.

"Let me see your face first, human. Take off your hoodie."

The woman fidgeted uncomfortably, before slowly taking off her hoodie. All the beastmen in the throne room were stunned by her beauty and innocence.

She had beautiful red hair that shone even in the dim throne room. Her face was small, with big eyes and small lips that made her appear cute and sweet, which aligned with Queen Swan’s aesthetic.

All the beastmen guards, and half of the servants in this castle idolized their Queen so much. That’s why when they saw someone with a similar aesthetic as her, they couldn’t help but feel excited.

The woman lifted her head slightly, and when she realized that the Beast King was staring at her underneath the blindfold, she quickly lowered her head and fidgeted.

"M-my name is M-Meredith, Your Majesty. I-I lived nearby in the woods, but my house has been destroyed..." Meredith—or Lady Jade—said in a soft and hesitant tone, perfectly imitating Swan’s way of speaking when she first came to the castle. "P-pardon me for begging, Your Majesty. B-but I-I don’t have any place to live. I-I don’t want to die. C-can I l-live here for now? I-I can work as a maid..."

Gale’s frown grew deeper as he felt that something was off with this woman, but he couldn’t fathom what it was. Unlike the rest of the beastmen soldiers who were already smitten by her beauty, Gale found her to be pleasant-looking, but it was mostly because she looked similar to Swan, and he had no reason to replace his beloved wife with a poor imitation.

However, he wouldn’t deny that he also let his guard down, seeing how similar she was to Swan. _{freeweɓnovēl.coɱ}

Anything similar or related to his wife made him weaker and more lenient than usual, unfortunately.

He could’ve just told her to leave, but when he imagined someone as weak as his wife dying in the forest because she had no home, Gale found himself feeling a little guilty.

So he said, "If I allow you to work as a maid in this castle, that means you are not allowed to leave the castle anymore unless I tell you to. You will dedicate your body and heart to serve me and my wife, Queen Swan. Do you understand that?"
