When the disgusting guy had pinned Mabel to the wall she had wanted to knee him in his groin but she felt so weak in her legs that she could not really move. She knew that it was because of the alcohol in her system and she blamed herself for letting herself become tipsy and vulnerable.When she saw Kelvin approaching, a part of her felt hopeful as she believed that he would come to her rescue. He did try to do that in his own way, but he insulted her in the process. By trying to pay off the guy, he was insinuating that she really collected money from him. Of all people, he should know her better but now, she was afraid because of Armstrong. What would he think about her if he came and saw this disgusting guy so close to her? Just as she was thinking about that, Armstrong appeared behind the disgusting guy and asked, “what the hell is going on here?”Mabel quickly began to explain everything, telling Armstrong how she came out of the toilet and that this guy came out of nowhere and be
When Kelvin got back home, the memory of Mabel kissing Arms kept plaguing his mind. He found it difficult to believe that it was the same Mabel who had begged him not to break up with her.How could she move on so quickly? He did not even love Rachel but was only accommodating her to make his parents happy but Mabel seemed to have fallen in love so suddenly. Was the love she claimed to have for him in the past all a lie?He decided to call her and ask her about it but she did not take his calls. He called so many times until he finally gave up and slept.Meanwhile, Mabel went straight to bed the moment she left the bathroom. She felt so exhausted because of the alcohol in her system so she had no idea that her phone was ringing.Arms, on the other hand, went back to the bar and paid enough money to get the video of his intimate moment with Mabel.He had noticed that there were cameras in the bar and one was not so far from him and Mabel so he knew that it must have captured the moment
Bastian sat in his hotel room thinking about what he was going to do. Despite all that Amy said and how angry he was, he could not leave without her but he also could not imagine himself going back to her after the way she had insulted him.He paced up and down his room as he crossed his arms and tried to come up with a solution. His eyes lit up when he remembered his mum. Yes, she was one person who wanted Amy to be his wife so badly and Amy could never say no to her. He will have his mum call her and by tomorrow, she will run back, begging him to forgive her for everything and give her another chance.He quickly picked up his phone and dialed the queen's number. When she answered the call, he said, "good evening, mum.""Evening, Sebastian," she replied. "how are you and my beloved daughter?"Bastian sighed, "that is the exact reason why I'm calling you, mum. Amy just got up and left me without a word. I searched for her everywhere and finally found her in Milan but despite how hard
Bastian paced up and down anxiously as he waited for the queen to call. When she finally did, he happily answered the call and asked, "when did Amy say she is coming back?"The queen shook her head in disbelief, "I am going to ask you four questions Bastian and I expect you to tell me the truth. One; during your honeymoon, did you take Amy to a dangerous club and abandon her there? Two; was the head maid's daughter living with you in your hotel room during your honeymoon and now in the palace? Three; did you have your mistress publicly whip and humiliate Amy and throw her in prison? Four; If someone did all these things to you, will you want to spend another minute with them?I just want you to tell me the truth, Bastian."Bastian was shocked because he did not expect that Amy would reveal everything to the queen since she had left without saying a word to anyone. He had not realized how bad the things he did to Amy were until the queen mentioned them.Now that he thought about it, he
"Yes, I'm the one," Bastian replied. "Give the phone to Amy, I need to speak with her."Tina said, "look, I know I am just Amelia's cousin but I will still tell you the truth. First of all, Amy is sleeping so she can't speak to you."After hearing that Amy couldn't speak to him, Bastian wanted to hang up but paused when he heard Tina say, "what you did to Amy was very wrong."Bastian decided to keep silent and listen to Tina as she said everything she had in mind."Listen," Tina continued, "Amy loved you sincerely for years and went to the palace just to get a glimpse of you but you took advantage of her and forced yourself on her, how was that any of her fault?Your mum convinced her to marry you. Everyone who cared about her warned her against it but she went ahead to marry you because of her love for you but what did you do? You broke her.At such a young age, she's already a broken woman. She walks about acting strong but her wounds are deep because she loved you too much. I canno
Amy stared at Bastian in surprise. After what Tina told her and how thoroughly she had insulted him, Amy had thought that whatever he had to say to her would be done over the phone.The last thing she expected was to see him in front of her door. He was looking dashing as always. He wore a brown turtle-necked long sleeves shirt and black pants and he smelled really nice. He had a charming smile on his face, however, Amy did not forget that he was the devil.She tried to slam the door in his face but he held it back until Amy could not struggle anymore. She turned and tried to run into her room but Bastian ran after her and held her wrist.He pulled her back toward the front door which he had left ajar when he ran in and locked it. Amy pulled her hand away from his hold, "what do you want from me, Bastian? Didn't we say enough to each other yesterday? Are you here for revenge?Okay, yesterday, I was very upset and lost it. I am sorry about everything I said to you and I take it all ba
After putting in so much effort to make food for Armstrong, Mabel packed it and dressed up beautifully before leaving for his house.She hired a cab to take her to the house. When she arrived at his house, Mabel stood outside Armstrong's gate staring at the tall building inside it in awe. It looked just like a palace, as beautiful as prince Bastian's. For a second, Mabel wondered if she was at the wrong address. She could not believe that someone would choose to stay in such a big house alone.While she was still contemplating if she should knock on the gate, Armstrong called her. She immediately answered the call and said, "I am standing outside the gate of a house that looks like a palace because I can't figure out if it's yours or not.""Hold on," Armstrong replied. "I'll be right there."Mabel stood outside waiting and a few seconds later, the gate rolled to the side. She was amazed when she realized it was an automated rolling gate. She knew they were quite expensive and as the g
Bastian opened his eyes and looked beside him but there was no one. He recalled what had transpired between him and Amy and smiled as he thought she was in the living room.When he sat upright, he noticed the note Amy had left for him and read the content, "what just happened between us doesn't change anything. It was just a brief moment of weakness on my part. Now that you've got what you wanted, once you get up, leave and never come back. I want nothing to do with you for the rest of my life, prince Bastian."Bastian sighed, crunched the piece of paper, and threw it to the side. How could Amy say the sex they had meant nothing when she had been practically shaking in his arms?He thought for a while and shook his head, "I can't let you go." He got up from the bed, put on his clothes, and came out of the house. He looked around, ignoring the stares he was getting. When he could not find any trace of her, he tried calling her number but all his calls went to voicemail.Left with no o
A few hours earlier, Ann left James at the club saying, "Today, I will put an end to my biggest rival." She went straight to Amy's house and checked her door, but it was locked. She came out and waited around, having a feeling that wherever Amy went, she would come back.After making her findings, she had learned that Amy had not returned to the palace. This made her hopeful that she was going to get Amy.Her ex-boyfriend, James, had refused to help her get rid of Amy because he said he did not want to get involved in any offense related to the royal household. They had so much money, and he was not ready to live a life on the run.However, he taught Ann how to shoot a gun for a price. Now that she had enough confidence, she came to carry out her mission. She disguised herself by putting on a t-shirt, trousers, and a face cap. She stood by a tree, partially concealed.To her left, there was a street. Her plan was to run through the street after carrying out her plans. She waited until
The other three friends of Amy's brother were afraid, unlike him and the one with the knife. They had not expected that Bastian would show up, and knowing that he was a prince, they believed that there would be guards around. So, one of them said to John, "Listen, I think we should back off now. I mean, he's a prince, and you know that attacking a royal." "Shut up," John snapped at him, "Stop being a scaredy-cat. He might be a prince, but he's alone." The other friend holding the knife said, "Oh, you all think we're joking here." He put the knife around Amy's neck. However, Bastian said, "There's no need for all that. My hands are already raised, and I'm out of the way. Go ahead and do what you want, but do not harm my wife." John smiled, "He's a coward after all, but a sensible one. Let's go."Amy was in front with John's friend pointing a knife at her neck while he walked behind her. John and all the other three friends followed. Just as they walked out of the street, Bastian
Mabel and Armstrong came out of his mother's house holding hands."That went well," he said to her. She smiled. "Yes, your mom is such a sweetheart." He spun her around so she could face him. "What are you doing, Armstrong? We're still in your mom's compound. She can see us at any time." "Relax, she's busy and she thinks we're gone. Mabel, in three weeks, you're going to be my wife. Do you know that?" Mabel laughed. "Of course, I know that. I mean, we picked the date together." "I know," Armstrong said. "It's a dream come true, my love. It seems like just yesterday when I was wishing that you would look at me, not as a friend but as the man who loves you the most in this world.I am so excited about spending the rest of my life with you. I love you, Mabel.""I love you, Arms" Mabel replied and hugged him.Armstong caressed her cheeks and said, "We can only go for our honeymoon a week after the wedding because of your exams, but I'm just so worried that with everything that is ha
Ivy's parents, as well as Mrs. Harlow, all sat around her. They were surprised at the news they had received. When Ivy's mother arrived and heard from Charles what Raya had done, she quickly informed Mrs. Harlow, who rushed down with her husband. They all found it difficult to believe that the same person whom they saw as an ally was their enemy, the one who had taken their daughter away from them. They kept staring at Ivy, thinking that if she hadn't been fortunate to react when she did, Raya would've successfully killed her, and no one would've known that she was the culprit.Charles came into the room at this time. He had a guilty expression on his face as he sat on the bed. He said, "The police have taken her away, and, she's in a wheelchair because she's paralyzed. The only thing she can do is speak. She can barely move.""I can't believe this was what she was planning to do to Ivy," Ivy's father said.Charles replied, "No, she wanted to kill Ivy. It only had that effect on h
Ann went back to the club to meet James who had helped her kidnap Mabel. The moment she saw him, she ran into his arms and began to cry, "Now my mom is gone. I have no chance of ever becoming the queen. My heart is heavy. Your men are all useless. How could all four of them lose Mabel? I was this close, I was this close to getting what I wanted, but they ruined it all for me. How could you do this to me? You should've given me more capable men.""What are you talking about?" he asked. "Don't say such things. Haven't I done enough to assist you? It seems you do not appreciate my efforts. How is it my fault that your mom got arrested? Why did you take her into the palace when you knew your plan hadn't been successful? That was a very wrong move, and you didn't even tell me about it. I would've given you proper advice.""My mom so badly wanted to go back to the palace, so I had no choice, I just wanted her to be happy. I've been doing all this for my mom but where is she now? She's in
In the past few days, Charles had been coming to the hospital to feed Ivy and spend time with her. Despite the fact that she did not respond to anything he said but just sat down staring at him, he always spoke to her, telling her about his day and how things went. Raya came there almost every day pretending that she was giving him support, but what she was doing was looking for an opportunity to make sure she carried out her plans completely. Most times, Ivy's parents also came, stayed with her, and left, but Charles was always there with her. His mom had also come to the hospital to spend some time with them. He thought of reaching out to Amy to tell her about Ivy's condition, but he decided not to. Ivy had told him that Amy was going through so much, so he did not want to add to it. As he sat by her bed staring at her, he said, "Do not worry, Ivy. I believe that someday or very soon, you will get back on your feet, and you'll go back to the Ivy I've come to know." Right at th
Armstrong stared at Mabel in surprise and walked closer to her as she laid on the ground. The men rushed towards him, but in anger, he beat them thoroughly until they all became unconscious. Afterward, he lifted Mabel and ran out of the building, heading toward his car.When he got to the car, he placed her in the passenger seat and put on the seatbelt before getting into the driver's seat to drive her to the hospital. Meanwhile, Amy sat on the couch in her bedroom, watching as Bastian sat on the bed with Ann beside him. He unzipped the back of Ann's gown and took it off, leaving her with nothing but her bra and panties. His eyes went towards Amy, who was staring intently at him, and when their eyes met, she smiled.Amy was afraid that if she showed any other emotion, Bastian would change his mind and everything would be ruined. So she pretended to be happy about it. Bastian took his attention back to Ann. He cupped her face and crashed his lips against hers. He pushed her towards
Amy came down from the taxi in front of her street and ran into the house. When she rushed in, however, she saw Maria sitting in a chair, and Armstrong was sitting in another chair. They both got up and stared at her. Amy was already crying, and her eyes were very red. She also looked exhausted and had dark circles under her eyes. The moment Armstrong looked at her, he knew that she was going through a lot. She ran to Maria and hugged her."I'm so sorry, Maria. I'm so sorry. Please, don't ever think of suicide again." Maria stared at her in surprise, realizing that what Armstrong had said was the truth. Out of anger, she had said so many bad things about Amy, and now she regretted them. "I'm sorry too," Maria replied. "Please, Amy, do not hide the truth anymore. Tell us, tell Armstrong so he can help our sister.""What are you talking about?" Amy asked. She turned to stare at Armstrong. "I don't understand what she is saying. I came here because Maria said she wanted to end her li
While she was being locked up, Mabel thought about her loved ones and felt very sad. When she thought about what Amy might be going through, she began to cry."I don't know what Ann is making you do," she said to herself. "I'm sorry, Amy. Because of me, you must be suffering over there. I'm sorry, Armstrong because I know you must miss me so much. We were supposed to go see your mom in two days, but now I know you'd be very depressed. I'm sorry, Maria. You always act strong, but at this moment, I know you'd be the one who'll cry the most. I don't know why this had to happen to me?" She laid on the floor and cried until she got tired.Meanwhile, at this time, Armstrong, who had not gotten any reasonable news from the police and the private investigators he had sent, also sat at home sadly thinking about Mabel. He couldn't go to work or do anything else. He kept thinking about where Mabel could be or who it was that was keeping her.In the evening, Ann, who had moved into the palace,
