Ryan struggled with all his might just to say those few words, managing to speak them only haltingly.He knew he didn't have much time left. Tonight, he was sure he would die in Nessa's arms.He didn't want her to be burdened by thoughts of him after he was gone. He didn't want her to try to understand his feelings and then live her entire life filled with guilt.He said something hurtful to her so that she could leave without feeling guilty.Allison shook her head. Her mind was completely blank, and she was unable to take in anything he was saying.She felt as if her heart was about to explode with pain.For the first time ever, she felt that she couldn't live without him as she held onto him tightly.She didn't want him to be injured."Your Highness, you'll be okay. The doctors are on the way, and they'll save you."Ryan, didn't you once tell me that you wanted me to take you to Amberville to see where I was born and raised?"I still haven't taken you there, so you can't di
The Koronian royal palace was really grand. Although there might not be hundreds of rooms, there were probably at least a dozen others.And, Curtis happened to enter Calvin's room in the middle of the night.Curtis loosened the arm pads on his arm and said, "Considering the luck we're having, I need to ask you this. Should I just bring in our people and attack the Koronian royal family directly, or do we keep trying to negotiate with them?"Due to restrictions from the Koronian royal family, Calvin wasn't allowed to use electronic devices.Curtis couldn't reach him, so he had to come alone to discuss things with him.Calvin asked, "Did you find Lena and Anthony?""Not yet.""So how did you end up coming here to find me? Is the royal palace's security that bad? Aren't you afraid of getting caught in their crossfire?"Curtis hummed. "If I wasn't feeling confident, I wouldn't have come to you."Didn't you know? Something happened with the royal family tonight. There aren't many b
Curtis was stunned. The antidote Calvin took back was a fake?Now that Allison's true identity had been exposed, wasn't she in great danger as well?Curtis reached out and took Allison's hand, saying, "Let's not worry about that for now, Allison. Let's get out of here first."Allison shook her head. "I don't want to leave. I want to see if a miracle might happen with him.""The king wants to kill you. He won't spare you.""So what if he does? Ryan was willing to risk his life for me. How could I just abandon him and keep on living?"She couldn't leave alone, so she turned around and headed toward the clinic again.Without any warning, Curtis raised his hand and delivered a chop to the back of Allison's head.Allison was caught off guard. She only felt a sudden blow to her head, which caused her to black out completely.Curtis quickly picked her up and promptly left. There were his own people outside the royal palace who were always ready to follow his orders.There was an inc
Margot and Natalie also saw Calvin and exclaimed simultaneously, "Calvin!""Calvin."Calvin quickly walked over, naturally embraced the two women, and gently patted their shoulders. He asked them, "Is everything okay at home? I heard Daniel is back?"Margot quickly moved out of Calvin's embrace and stepped back a bit, saying, "Yes, he's back, but he doesn't recognize anyone. We have placed him and Princess Edna in the western wing."She thought of Curtis and hurriedly asked, "You're back, but what about Curtis?"Calvin released Natalie from his embrace and then looked at Margot. "Curtis asked me to bring the antidote back to you. He went to find Allison."Margot felt a bit disappointed. "But the antidote you brought back is fake."Calvin looked slightly startled to hear that.Natalie explained to him, "Curtis called us and said the antidote is fake. He also said someone is bringing Allison back. We just don't know how long it will take for her to arrive."Are you hungry, Calvi
Calvin and Natalie knew it was definitely Allison.Calvin quickly said, "Where is the person? Take me there."The bodyguards hurriedly escorted Calvin to a nearby car.In the car, Allison was still unconscious.Calvin raised his hand to check her breathing; thankfully, it was normal. He bent down and pulled the person out of the car, then looked at Natalie."Darling, please get a guest room ready and then call a doctor to come over. This is Curtis' aunt, Allison."Natalie nodded quickly. "Okay. Take her upstairs to the second guest room on the right. I'll call the doctor right away."Calvin didn't hesitate and quickly brought Allison to the room.The doctor soon quickly arrived to examine her. He said it was nothing serious and that after sleeping for a few hours, it would get better.Afterwards, Natalie stayed by Allison's bedside and kept her company. She didn't wake Margot up because Margot hasn't been in a good mental state these days, and she wanted to let her get some pr
Lena had only taken a few steps when a figure suddenly darted out and swiftly blocked her path.When she saw who the person in front of her was, Lena was astonished."Curtis, is that you?"Curtis was overjoyed when he realized the person in front of him was Lena."I finally got to meet you! Where have you been all this time? We've been searching for you like mad."Of course, Lena couldn't tell him that she went to find Branden and even spent a few days living with him.After she recalled what Branden had said, she responded indifferently, "Why are you here? Are you okay?"Curtis shook his head and said, "I'm fine, but we really need you, Lena. You can cure any illness and even detoxify poisons, right?"Lena nodded her head.Curtis quickly grabbed her hand and said, "Come on, let's go home."Lena stood still, pulled away his hand, and said, "I'm here at the Koronian royal palace to rescue someone, Curtis. Margot and the others can't be here, are they?"Curtis was stunned. So
Curtis, accompanied by Lena, entered the palace with the members of the royal family.The two of them went to the living room to meet with Ragnar first.When Ragnar saw that the person approaching was someone he recognized, he couldn't help but become wary. "Mr. Crosby? I thought you went back to Ligronia. Why are you pretending to be a doctor to treat my son?"Curtis gave a faint smile and sat down on the chair next to him. "It's a pleasure to meet you. I didn't expect Your Majesty to remember me.""Regal Enterprises has collaborated with Sawyer Group and our royal family for many years. We've met in person several times, so how could I not remember?"Curtis hummed. "If you remember me and know that I have been working with Mr. Sawyer and your royal family for many years, then why did Your Majesty detain my wife and poison my friends?""For a member of a royal family to act in such a despicable manner… It's truly quite dishonorable."Ragnar was speechless. All he wanted was the
The staff then quickly stood up and led Lena to where Ryan was.Before Lena left, she told Curtis, "Support him and don't let him lie down. Press here on his hand, and once he catches his breath, remove the needle.""Okay," Curtis said.He disregarded Lena and instead, he supported Ragnar and quickly helped him catch his breath.Although there were a few bodyguards standing nearby, they didn’t know what to do when they saw Ragnar suddenly collapse. They could only stand there anxiously.Some had rushed to call for a doctor.But even before the doctor arrived, Ragnar's breathing gradually became smoother. He felt his mind clear up, and his body stopped trembling.Curtis noticed he seemed much better and proceeded to remove the needle from his acupuncture point, asking, "How are you feeling?"Ragnar was truly surprised that a young lady like Lena actually had such impressive skills.Just now, he almost…When he thought about Ryan, Ragnar quickly got up and grabbed Curtis. "Come
