Alexander returned to the palace like a lost soul. It felt as if his energy had been sucked as he sank into the couch weakly.What Victoria said echoed in his ears."Get rid of Aurelia for me! When I sit on the throne and get married to Neil, I guarantee that your secret will remain a secret forever! Also, I can give the Irwins better treatment… Doesn't Zephyr have a son? He's Mr. Irwin's grandson. I will knight him, making him the most glorious kid in the entire Southeast Aciatic!"Alexander kept rubbing between his eyebrows. When he looked up and looked at the crystal plate on the table, he did not see his favorite pineapple among the fruits. He crushed the plate from anger!All of the guards were shocked. They stood where they were, not daring to breathe loudly.The prince was usually nice, and he was polite to people. Many guards in the palace were eager to stay with him.However, it was odd for him to throw a tantrum today…Alexander took a deep breath—he was irritated. He
Alexander was confused. The Neil he knew played drinking games?It was unbelievable!Aurelia quickly invited him into the store and served him the cold rose-flavored jelly she had made.He was nice. They chatted for a little bit and were surprised to find that they had many things to talk about. He said he had been to Melorion, that he had accompanied his uncle many years ago.She chuckled. "Did you visit with the king?""Hmm… I don't think so." He thought about it and shook his head. In reality, he did not have many memories about that matter. Nobody told him why exactly the king had visited Melorian.He only remembered that his uncle had been walking back and forth on a street, seemingly waiting for someone.Alexander sighed softly and rubbed his throbbing temples."What's wrong, Your Highness? I see that you don't look very good." Aurelia looked at him with care.He smiled. "I'm okay.""Do you have something… on your mind?"Aurelia was accurate with her observation.Alex
"Oh, nothing." Alexander snapped back to his senses. "Go on."Aurelia smiled. "I have nothing else to say. There's only one thing that I'd like to add. It's something that I've just learned. We will not attack unless we are attacked.""What if… I've been attacked?""Eradicate that person!"Alexander felt enlightened when he saw her smile.How could he be stuck for so long when it was something that even a girl knew?He had not been loved since he was young. Although he had Victoria as his sister, she had been treating him like an eyesore. Moreover, after being brainwashed by his family, he really thought that he was the one who had caused his mother's death.He had been accommodating to Victoria, but what did he get?It only made her insatiable!Aurelia thought she had said something wrong when she saw him staring into space. She scratched her head shyly."Your Highness, don't… make fun of me! I don't know much. Please forgive me if I said something wrong!""I thought what y
"The general's residence is too far. He probably won't go there." Alexander looked at Aurelia. "Do you know if he has his private place?"Aurelia shook her head in a daze."Is your place close by?"Aurelia was troubled. "It is, but it won't be easy to walk there dragging him along!"Alexander gave it a thought and made a call to request for his personal RV to be driven over.It was Aurelia's first time seeing a luxurious RV like this, and her eyes lit up. The RV was spacious inside, and everything one could need was well-equipped. She couldn't help thinking this was not an RV but a presidential suite!"Sorry for the inconvenience. You two will have to stay in the RV for the night as a temporary arrangement." Alexander smiled. "This is the most convenient solution I could think of to get Neil somewhere to rest."Aurelia shot him a grateful look.After carrying Neil to the RV, Alexander closed the door. Aurelia and her "uncle" were the only ones left in the spacious vehicle.Nei
Aurelia sat there stiffly, her back straightening as she stared at Neil.The man did not move after that and was dead asleep like a log.Aurelia shoved him several times until she confirmed that everything was just a coincidence the last time—the man was really soundly asleep.Hence, she stealthily went closer to try to remove the ring… only for Neil to flip himself to face his back against her! The hand with the ring was lodged under him!With wasted effort, Aurelia glared at his back with the impulse to hit someone. She did not know that her "uncle," who had his back against her, was wearing a Cheshire grin.…Alexander stood nearby the RV, where his attendant persuaded him to go back."Your Highness, Mr. Harris has a chauffeur and guards here. He'll be fine. You don't have to worry! It's… going to be the palace's curfew soon…""Remus, how many years have you been with me?" Alexander asked suddenly.The attendant named Remus was perplexed. It was not that he could not answ
Zennie grinned mischievously with Seth wrapping an arm around her shoulders. Together, they flashed the engagement rings on their hands.Everyone crowded over for a look.Josiah cried, "Whoa! You two kept it down, huh? When did you get engaged?"Nicholas kept up his new money ways as always. "Seth, I think this ring doesn't cut it! You want to take Zennie away with this mere carat—"Before he finished his sentence, Linda's fist greeted his head. "Shut up if you don't know what to say!"Nicholas' handsome face scrunched up in grievance."I think the ring is beautiful." Kelly smiled. "The carat doesn't matter. What matters is the intention to stay by each other's side forever!""Yeap, that's it! The intention!"As the group gave their wishes and blessings, Cordelia passed her flowers directly to Zennie.There was only one person who did not look too happy.Zephyr quietly watched Zennie, who was engulfed in happiness.It was strange. He was angry when Seth was clueless in the p
“You…”Zephyr was in the traditional Southeast Aciatic long robe that was heavy with embroidery. He could not do much being clad in such garments and could only glare at them. He wanted to seek assistance, but to his surprise, Robert had turned his back on him too!Zephyr's effort to escape was futile no matter his skill level when the three men rushed to him together."Nicholas, are we stepping on his head?""No, no, don't. He's the groom today. It's not auspicious to step on his head!""Then we step on his feet as hard as we can!""Cordelia will feel bad if we hurt him.""Why don't…"Josiah cackled and took off Zephyr's shoes. "Robert, tickle him!"Zephyr struggled as he roared, "You guys are too much!"…Merry peals of laughter sounded under the sun. It had been a long time since the palace was this lively.Aurelia stood in a corner quietly holding a champagne flute. She was envious of the lively and playful crowd there but dared not go closer.She was able to come to t
Aurelia pouted as she yanked on the tassels on her clothes with both hands like she was venting a tantrum.The celebrities who came were under Imperial Media and Sol Entertainment. All of them were A-list artists. There was also no doubt that the award-winning actress was at this occasion.Aurelia's eyes had been on her.Millie wore a low-cut sapphire mermaid dress with a slightly androgynous makeup look. Her presence was accentuated, and she gave off the vibe of a queen.It was no wonder people called her the red carpet killer. Which female celebrity would want to be in the same photo as her with how she looked?The more Aurelia thought about it, the angrier she was. Neil had been talking to Millie. Had he forgotten that she was also there? She could also hear their conversation clearly.Just earlier, Neil had given Millie a big hug when he saw her. Millie was all smiles and even gave him a kiss on the cheek."Why are you still so dashing, Mr. Harris!?""Gorgeous as you are, M
