Molly followed Yelan back to the house across the street, and when they entered the front door, they saw that the clinic door was open because Mrs Gold was standing there, looking in.
At a glance, Molly could see Liam in the room, lying on a high bed. The man with long golden hair was not wearing a top, and many golden needles were pricked all over his body.
The man seemed to be smiling, but it was clear he was enduring pain… while Master Zaha was holding his wrist while readying another needle, preparing to thrust it.
Mrs Gold closed the door from the outside. She smiled at Yelan and Molly with an inexplicably complicated smile.
"I've told my husband that we're going to the church. Let's go," she said softly.
The woman was wearing a dark brown dress that was so elegant and simple. For some reason, Molly felt the clothes she was wearing weren't made in the North...
Harriet got off the carriage, following Yelan and Molly. Her face was looking straight ahead, at the luxurious-looking city church.The three walked towards the front door of the church, where the worshippers walked in and out. Harriet was surprised that compared to the size of the city, there was only one church in this city…Actually, it made sense. Most Northerners did not worship gods. Northerners were mostly Lycans who worshipped the moon and regarded their Luna as the personification of the moon itself.But in Obsidian Port City, many immigrants from various parts of the Continent would naturally worship the same Gods and Goddesses as the residents outside the North.Harriet and the two girls she brought with her noticed how bright, colourful and shimmering the sunlight streaming in through the stained glass art in the church windows.While Harriet showed a warm look
Laurel was not happy to see Harriet's pretty face that in her opinion, was too conspicuous. She didn’t look like a local, and there was a strange mature charm to her smile.She felt lucky that this woman was married and not a noble. That meant Harriet couldn't be compared to her, as she was still young and unmarried. Most important of all, Laurel was also a noble daughter.Reverend Derek wouldn't be interested in her, would he?The second Laurel said her name, Harriet knew immediately who the young woman was. She was the daughter of Viscount Obsidian, one of the vassals of the Almandine Duchy who was in charge of Port City.She heard that this girl had rejected many marriage proposals from other nobles and had a religious reputation, having often attended church.She just smiled and bowed her head calmly, then turned to leave after saying, “I'm sorry if I did somethin
"We have two younger sisters from the same orphanage in our house. They can look after the Grandpa while we work." Harriet who heard it immediately felt a little uncomfortable. It seemed that the living conditions of these children were very difficult. But why would they still want to help the old man? She then asked them if they would be bothered by taking care of the old man. Then, the two explained that they wouldn't be in too much trouble. "We receive a monthly financial allowance from the Northern Government until we were eighteen years old. Old Duke Almandine made sure that none of the orphans go hungry, so we still have some savings from that money." Harriet knew there was government-issued financial support to help the children… but she was sure it wasn't much. "If you guys need help, you can just ask us for help, okay? Why are you so adamant about helping this old man…"  
“Ah, not all the children here are homeless. Some of them are local kids who play here regularly,” said Bill.Harriet still couldn't calm the discomfort in her heart despite hearing that.Bill and Ben cheerfully showed them so much about the house they live in, which was quite spacious and had been repaired here and there. They also showed where the children play and where they sleep.These children looked cheerful, and all played happily. Their food supply was ample, and everything looked absolutely fine."Okay, we get it," said Harriet.The two young men turned to her. For some reason, they looked surprised at Harriet who smiled warmly at them.“Ah, would you two want to join us for lunch?” they offered.Harriet looked at the two and shook her head. "No. We have to go back home. There are things we have to prepar
Ezekiel groaned softly feeling the pressure on his head. He massaged his forehead a little roughly in frustration.“Your Highness, you must…” Sir Marcus paused when he saw Ezekiel raise his hand."I'm fine," Ezekiel said flatly.“But you haven't slept for three days…” his Aide, Sir Marcus looked so worried to see him.But Ezekiel felt work was better than sleep. If he slept–no. Closing his eyes was enough to make him see the shadow of that day. Harriet's pale face called out to her husband and her frail back at the edge of the flower field.That's when they heard a sound from outside the door—like the sound of rapid footsteps.DRAP DRAP DRAPCRASH!His office door opened, and Ezekiel saw a beautiful woman in a white dress appear before him.“
Crown Prince Ezekiel Euclase's and Ezra Beryl's wedding invitations were spread across the continent. Everyone received the invitation, even the Dukes and some important people from outside the continent.When Duke Diamond got the invitation, he simply threw it on the coffee table and didn't touch it for three days. He was busy with something else.Duke Ethan Diamond had just found his little sister who went missing fifteen years ago, Celine Diamond.As Ethan walked toward the greenhouse of his castle, his chest felt relieved and the world felt like it was giving him a chance to be happy again. Because the only family he had now was back."Celine!"Ethan called out to a young woman who was crouching caring for flowers in the greenhouse. A young woman with long white hair that seemed to emit her own light in the bright sunlight.And the young woman turned arou
Penelope laughed at the latest gossip she got from the palace. “You said Miss Ezra Beryl ran into the Crown Prince's office in her wedding dress? Hahahaha! She is a really interesting woman!”Of course, nothing could get past her eyes and ears, especially since Ezra was now in the middle of a vortex of gossip. Moreover, Penelope was very happy to hear and spread gossip about Ezra.She still remembered when she had just met Ezra a few months ago, the woman saw her angry because someone was spreading gossip about Harriet. After that, Ezra started to make some scandals as the future Empress.And when Penelope asked why Ezra was acting so conspicuous, the young woman replied, “Aren't you unhappy about hearing bad rumours about your friend, Marchioness Goldlane? I'm making a new rumour so they have other things to talk about."Penelope didn't think she would find another woman as impress
"I'm just homesick."Ezekiel stopped as a result, but his brows furrowed in disbelief. She cried because she missed home?Wait a moment…The man began to notice something strange. He turned to the woman and looked at her deeply. When he thought back… none of Ezra's family had tried to contact her or visit her in the palace.But wasn't this girl the youngest daughter of the Beryl family, as well as a Saintess?Shouldn't she be the pride of the family?As soon as he thought about it like that, other oddities emerged. If she was such an important person in her family, there was no way the Beryl Family would allow her to be adopted by the Emperor, right? Then…“We can visit your household after the wedding. Or… we can take the time to visit before the wedding,” said Ezekiel."Are yo
