“I got you, my Prince,” she responded sharply, and faced her food. The Prince faced his food too. Howbeit, the Princesses were not of the same opinion as the adults, and they said it as it should be, “Princess Mirabel, how is your fine husband?” Princess Julie asked, and Aurora was not left out, “That reminds me, Princess, have you and your husband chosen the wedding date?”The adults had never felt good with the children before. They depended on the children's questions to get vital information, and they waited silently for her response. She looked at Julie, who was sitting on her left, and answered, “He is fine,” then she faced Aurora, and lied, “We have not chosen a wedding date.” Before she could look away, Aurora reminded her, “But he promised that he will inform us of your wedding date soon.”“Yes.” She responded dismissively. Now, everyone faced their meal. After a few minutes, the Prince was through with his meal, and he announced, “Thank you, my father. Thank you, my mother, f

To answer Alfred's question, she chatted Carson up.

Two Days Later – Trip To NassauIt was obvious that Irene wished to have herself to blame. It had been over forty-eight hours that the Prince gave her a mandate to return, but she cared less, dared him. Meanwhile, the King and Queen were worried about leaving the children alone without their mother.“I won't be long, my father. I will see her when I get to Nassau,” he promised.“What could be keeping her for so long?” The Queen demanded.“She wished to prepare a party that was out of this world for Aurora in two years, and she must get the Prince to attend,” the Prince mocked.His parents laughed softly, and the King inquired, “I thought she paid her parents a visit.”“Not in the least.”“I see. Safe trip, Son.”“Safe travels,” the parents wished simultaneously.“Thank you, my father. Thank you, my mother,” he appreciated, and bowed. Afterward, he left with his team, boarded the plane with his knight. The trip was smooth, and they arrived after ten hours. At NassauAfter informing his

“Coffee would suffice for now.”“It is okay,” he accepted, and pressed the intercom. Immediately, the tea boy appeared. He passed the message to him, and he left. Soon, he returned with cups of coffee.“Thank you for this,” Jackson appreciated and dismissed him. They sipped their tea silently, until the Chairman broke the awkward silence, and asked, “May I know why you wished to see me, My Prince?”Prince Churchill adjusted, and began, “Thank you, Sir Walter. I have been …”Sir Walter smiled happily with his introduction, and the Prince was encouraged to speak on, “… trying to get in touch with your son for over two months, but it was not possible because he is unreachable. Did he change his contact number?”Before the Prince ended his explanation, he noticed that the Chairman's happy expression changed to a gloomy one. He waited for his response, but he only stared blankly. Although, the Prince did not see any negative publications about Alfred of late, Jackson's expression frightened

At Irene's Hotel RoomIt had been two hours after she left the Spellcaster, and had anxiously waited for her ex-husband's call. When none came, she initiated it by dialing his number, to her disappointment, her call was busied.“Why has he not called me? Despite the spell, he still rejected my calls,” she murmured bitterly. Now, she was distressed, and gave her visit to the Spellcaster a thought, “I saw the Prince from the magic pot, and he was under a spell.” After a while, she resolved to pay him a visit.At Horton De Spellcaster's House.Irene was lucky to get his attention at once when she visited earlier.

At Old Pa Walter's Chamber.After the hugs and Pa Walter's unshed tears of joy, they settled down to chat. The old man loved to travel down the history, and that was a good time to do that.“Welcome to Nassau, once again.”“Thank you, Pa Walter.”“I was in your country to witness your christening.”“Wow. That is good to hear.”“Yes. If you go through the album, you will see a picture of me carrying you. I took some photographs with your parents and grandparents.”“That is lovely.”“I visited with some packets of sweets and chocolates, and the guests were happy to have them. That was when we went into contract on supplying us your cocoa, and we gave you sweets in exchange.” Unfortunately, Jackson would not give him the privilege of catching up with the past. Then, he interrupted, “The Prince has a flight to catch, and he needs to take his lunch before he leaves.”Jackson had only succeeded in giving him a clue on how to keep the Prince longer.“Oh! In that case, we can have lunch toget

In the PalaceMirabel closed for the day, after her friends left and returned home. To her surprised, the Princesses were moody, and their grandparents did not notice it.“What is the matter, Aurora and Julie?”“Welcome back, Princess Mirabel,” they greeted.“Thank you. Where are grandma and grandpa?”“They are in the bedroom.”“That is good. What is troubling you?”“My dad called grandpa a while ago, and announced that he was at the airport,” Aurora said.“That is good news. Ain't you happy that he is coming back?”“We are. But he is coming back with our mom.”“And so what if he comes back with your mom?”“She would lock us up in the house, like flowers in the attic,” Julie explained, and Aurora added, “We will not go to the farm anymore.”“Or visit our grandparents.”“Is your dad aware of that?”“Yes, and she would pick on him if he wished to take us out to visit you, or grandma.”“It's okay.
