Curtis stood up from the ground and bluntly told Allison, "I'm looking for someone—the newlywed husband of Princess Edna. Do you know him, Allison?""Geralt?"Allison looked skeptical. "Why are you looking for him?"Curtis asked, "Is Princess Edna's new husband named Geralt?""Yeah, why are you specifically looking for him?"Curtis took a moment to calm down and looked at Allison, "Answer me first. How did you end up here? And in what capacity are you here?""I am one of Prince Ryan's bodyguards and also his assistant. Is there a problem?"Curtis was stunned. Did Allison actually come to Koronia to be a Koronian prince's bodyguard?It was surprising, but it made sense.Allison always had a tomboyish personality. She started learning how to kickbox at the age of five, won a national Taekwondo black belt championship at ten, and joined the military at 16. After retiring from the military, she stayed at home for two years before going abroad.Curtis never would have guessed that
Allison left the room and went downstairs to the castle's living room, where she met Ryan.Ryan, with a serious expression on his face, briskly walked over to her when he saw her, grabbed her hand, and said, "Come with me."Allison pulled his hand away and asked, "Where are we going?""Just come with me."Ryan didn't want to speak; he just wanted to quickly take Allison away and leave.Allison was still unwilling to leave and asked, "Why did Your Highness send someone to take Edna and Geralt away? Did they do something wrong?""They didn't do anything wrong, but now you're in danger."Ryan looked at Allison with a face full of concern. "Come with me now and leave this place, or my father is very likely to harm you."Allison was puzzled. "Why would His Majesty want to target me?""Because I didn't obey his orders.""What is Your Highness saying?"Allison couldn't understand why Ryan wouldn't obey Ragnar's order.Even if Ryan didn't comply, what does it have to do with her? S
"So you really want me to go?" Ryan asked again.Allison continued speaking with a gentle smile, "Your Highness is at the age where it's appropriate to meet and get to know some exceptional young ladies.""Nessa."Ryan suddenly got very angry. While staring at Allison, he shouted, "You're such a foolish, stupid woman, who's unbelievably naïve. Fine, as you wish, I'll go and charm another woman."He stood up and commanded, "Come with me. I want to show you how I make other women fall in love with me."Allison really couldn't understand Ryan's actions. Why would he make her watch when he was trying to charm another woman? She didn't have time for that."Your Highness, you should go on your own. I still have some matters to take care of here," Allison said, declining politely.Curtis was still waiting for her in the room."I won't. I want you to see how I charm other women," Ryan demanded with displeasure. He grabbed her wrist and pulled her along.Allison felt somewhat helpless
But then, Ryan felt that something was missing and gave orders while walking, "Take the hair tie off your ponytail."Allison was unhappy about this. "Why?""You look better with your hair down."Allison asked, "Why do I need to look good? It's easier for me to fight when my hair is tied up."Ryan glared at her. "Who did you get into a fight with?""I must protect Your Highness. What if Your Highness encounters danger?"Ryan gritted his teeth. He didn't want to argue with her and reached out to pull down her hair tie.Allison couldn't defend herself as her hair tie was pulled away, causing her long, smooth black hair to cascade over her shoulders. When paired with her stylish long dress, she exuded a goddess-like demeanor.Ryan couldn't help but take a couple of extra glances at her. He felt his heart race and his face turn red.Although he thought Allison looked incredibly beautiful, after thinking about Ragnar's intentions, he immediately put on a stern face and commanded, "O
Upon hearing the sound, Margot quickly stood up and turned her head.When she saw that it was a woman in a black outfit who looked extremely familiar, she furrowed her brows and tried hard to remember who she was.Why does this lady look so familiar, as though she had seen her somewhere before?Allison saw that the other person didn't recognize her. Smiling, she moved closer and whispered suggestively into her ear. "Hey beautiful, long time no see."Margot stood still and asked, "And you are…?"Allison was feeling slightly sad. She stood up straight and looked at Margot, who was half a head shorter than her. Unable to resist, she raised her hand and pinched the younger woman's cheek."Take a closer look. Do you really not remember me?"Margot was caught off guard when the other person suddenly pinched her cheek. It made her feel both awkward and uncomfortable.After taking a step back to avoid the other's touch, she said, "You seem familiar. Can you tell me who you are?"After
Ryan strode forward after remarking, "Let's go."Allison quickly matched his pace.She never expected that the people they came to see would be her family member, Margot.Margot had returned and sat down next to Luna and Gabriel. Before they could even start a proper conversation, a staff came in to report, "His Highness has come to visit everyone."Upon hearing this, all three people looked up simultaneously.When Margot saw Allison beside Ryan again, she felt inexplicably reassured. A faint smile appeared on her face.Luna and Gabriel, however, had no impression of Allison. Naturally, they didn't know who she was either.They stood up and watched as Ryan approached.Ryan gestured to them and said, "Please, everyone, have a seat. Make yourselves comfortable."Gabriel was straightforward and got straight to the point after sitting down. "When will Your Highness let us meet the person who looks just like Daniel Morris?"Just now, Calvin got in touch with him and asked him to t
"Ms. Princess, would you like to join me for dinner?" Ryan asked.Margot still declined, saying, "I'll just stay here and join my friend. I don't want to take up the prince's time."Ryan was genuinely surprised, as he hadn't expected Margot to be so reserved. If that were the case, he wouldn't be able to provoke Allison, right?He raised an eyebrow and said, "In that case, I won't disturb you any further. Please stay here for a few more days, and once my younger sister returns from her honeymoon, she and her husband will come to see you."Margot reluctantly nodded and said, "Alright, I'll have to trouble you for this."Ryan didn't respond any further and led Allison away.As soon as they left, Gabriel couldn't help but angrily remark, "They knew we were supposed to meet Princess Edna's husband, and yet they still went on their honeymoon? How long are we supposed to wait?"Luna said, "It's normal for newlyweds to be on their honeymoon. I just wonder if they are purposely delaying
Margot agreed without a second thought, saying, "Okay."Gabriel, who was nearby, grew cautious. He stood up, approached Margot, and pulled her aside, then looked at Allison and asked, "Didn't Margot just refuse the prince's invitation? Why are you still sending her? What do you want her to do there?"Luna also stood up to protect Margot and said, "Margot, they obviously have a motive. You can't go."Margot smiled reassuringly and replied, "It's fine. I'll go with her. She'll take good care of me.""Why do you trust her so much? Who is she?" Luna asked while looking very skeptical.Gabriel also found it strange. Margot wasn't foolish, logically speaking, so why would they just go off with a stranger?Moreover, their current situation wasn't very favorable.Margot stepped forward, took Allison by the arm, and explained to the two of them, "This is Curtis' aunt. She is now Prince Ryan's assistant and bodyguard. With her around, we don't need to worry about anything within the castl
