"Allison should be at the prince's residence," Margot said."But it's still a long way to his residence. Let's not delay our exit any longer; we don't want any unexpected complications. Let's head back for now," advised Gabriel."Allison's smart. If she doesn't see us, she'll definitely figure out why it was so on her own."Luna added, "Yeah, Margot, let's head back. We don't want your Calvin to worry."Thus, Margot had no choice and had to leave first.…Inside Ryan's residence, Allison, who was supposed to be dismissed, was called back.She looked at the man sitting in front of her and asked anxiously, "Tell me, what is His Majesty planning? Why does he insist on you trying to win over Margot?"Ragnar wanted to dismiss her to threaten Ryan because he didn't do what Ragnar wanted.Allison never expected that Ryan would defy Ragnar's wishes for her."My father wants the military seal that Margot's brother has, and he's trying to use Margot through me to achieve his goal," Rya
Ragnar focused on the chessboard. It was clear that Calvin had the upper hand in the game. Ragnar was being cornered and had no option but to admit defeat.After Ragnar got defeated throughout the entire chess game, he smiled and asked Calvin, "Why do you think I let your sister go?"Calvin's expression changed as he met Ragnar's gaze.Ragnar took a sip of tea and said calmly, "Mr. Morris, you may not know this, but Koronia possesses a rare poison. It is colorless and tasteless, and those who ingest it won't notice anything for ten days up to half a month. However, after a month has passed, the poison will take effect."For mild cases, it can cause unbearable itching and skin ulceration. In severe cases, it can break down the body's meridians within a month, leading to bleeding from all orifices and sudden death due to organ failure."Mr. Morris, your younger sister is truly as beautiful as a flower and is incomparable in her grace. If she were to die, would you, as her brother, f
Why didn't Calvin consider that revealing Margot's identity back then would put her in danger?He believed that the Morris family had immense power, and that after they got rid of Royce, no one would dare to oppose them anymore.Who could have known that Ragnar would take advantage of his weaknesses?Calvin was the one who had caused harm to befall Margot.He just hoped that Curtis understood what he meant and immediately sent someone to find Anthony and Lena to see what kind of poison Margot had been afflicted with and if it could be cured.If he couldn't solve it, then he'd just have to trade the military seal for the antidote.…After Margot and the others arrived at the Morris residence, it wasn't long before Curtis also returned with Edna and Geralt.He first sent someone to handle Edna and Geralt before hurrying off to see Margot.At that moment, Margot was in the large and luxurious living room of the Morris residence with Gabriel, Luna, and Natalie.They were discussi
After seeing Margot's worried and anxious expression, Curtis held her in his arms once again and explained, "Because they poisoned the food you ate during your stay at the royal palace."If we don't follow the king's orders, you won't get the antidote for the poison in your body. Once the poison takes effect, it could be…"The consequences of that would be unimaginable.Curtis and Calvin neither dared or could risk Margot's life. Nor will they harbor even the slightest bit of wishful thinking."What?"Margot was taken aback, and her face suddenly turned pale.Gabriel and Luna, who were standing nearby, both felt shocked."They poisoned us? Then why don't we feel anything at all?"Curtis said, "I don't know if only Margot was poisoned or if both of you were too. But why do you think the king allowed you to leave?"You might not feel anything yet because the poison hasn't taken effect, but if we wait until it does, I'm afraid it will be too late to save you."Ragnar wouldn't da
As long as it ensured Margot's safety, Curtis would be willing to sacrifice anything, not just the military seal but even his life.Curtis thought of this and said, "Take care and stay here. I'll send more people to look for Lena and Anthony."As she watched the dejected figure of Curtis walking away, Margot collapsed onto the couch. She was unable to express the pain she felt in her heart.Natalie noticed her reproachful behavior and sat down beside her to offer comfort. "Margot, don't overthink it. Calvin will definitely come up with another solution."Margot shook her head. "I just feel like I'm always so useless and always holding everyone back."The military seal is the only thing our father left for Calvin. If he has to hand it over because of me, he definitely won't be able to explain it to our father when they meet in the afterlife."They should never have left the hotel to go to the royal palace. It was unwise to impulsively go and find Daniel.Now that things have turn
"Daniel…" Margot called out.Geralt had no impression of who these people were. He subconsciously stepped in front of Edna to shield her, then asked in a distant tone, "Who are you people?""It's me, Margot. Don't you remember me?" Margot had tears in her eyes and her voice was choked with emotion.Geralt remained expressionless. "Margot? I don't know you.""We know you don't know who we are."Natalie also stepped forward and explained, "Curt has told us that you don't remember anything."However, the DNA test results show that you are indeed part of our family. Your name is Daniel Morris, and you are Margot's biological older brother. I am your sister-in-law.Geralt was speechless. As he looked at the two women in front of him, he still didn't want to believe what they were saying.Even though that guy named Curtis gave him the DNA report, he still refused to believe it."Stop acting like you're telling the truth. In my memory, I only recognize members of the Koronian royal f
Natalie had never seen Daniel like this before and had no idea what to do. She had no choice but to nod and leave.Gabriel, who was next to him, was also at a complete loss for what to do.This version of Daniel felt unfamiliar to him.It was because they didn't know what he had been through; that was why he had become like this.They couldn't force him to listen, so they had no choice but to leave for now.After watching them leave, Edna quickly held Geralt in her arms and comforted him, "Geralt, don't be scared. They've all left, so no one will disturb us. Stay calm and don't be afraid."Geralt finally calmed himself down, leaned against Edna, and said weakly, "Princess, my mind feels blank. I can't remember anything. I need to rest."Edna hugged him and comforted him, saying, "Alright, let's go back to the room."…At the Koronian royal palace two days later, Ragnar still hadn't received the military seal from Emeria, so he came to Calvin again to chat and play chess togeth
Calvin understood what Allison meant. After thinking of something, he gestured to Allison. "Let me see the antidote."Allison handed him the bottle.Calvin opened it and saw that the small bottle contained several tiny antidote pills.He divided the pills into two portions. He placed one portion back into the bottle before handing it to Allison and kept the other portion with him.Not long after Allison left, he took advantage of the moment when no one was watching and set his residence on fire.When the fire alarm went off, all the staff rushed to Calvin's residence to extinguish the fire.Allison heard the commotion and quickly nodded toward Ryan beside her. "Your Highness, let me go and see what is happening."Ryan looked at Allison. He knew she had something on her mind, but he chose not to ask and decided to let her be."Go ahead, and take care of yourself."Allison was slightly stunned. She didn't understand what he meant when by "take care of yourself".He knew full we
