All Chapters of Never To Be Loved Again: Chapter 151 - Chapter 160

Many years had passed since the name of the late king’s son came out of Ivan’s cold lips. Count Clovis, the eldest son of the late king, spent his days in solemn silence ages ago when he and his followers pushing to elect him as king were suppressed.Basil was unsure why Ivan suddenly spoke his name out of nowhere.“Do you find him suspicious? Or perhaps you’ve something?”Ivan shook his head. “No. That’s not it.”“Your Majesty, on that day, the count attended in the early morning for a moment for the sake of formality before heading back to his place. His wife stayed behind but she did not go anywhere close to the like, merely spending the hours with other noblewomen inside the tent. Under these circumstances, I find nothing suspicious at all,” Basil argued.“I understand.” Ivan let out a deep low sigh. “In anycase, the possibilities remain. Investigate them all. You aren’t allowed to let any single person pass.”“Understood, Your Majesty.”Basil bowed and left.Thereafter, Ivan went

Alicia left the palace and searched for Ivan, who had yet to show his presence after lunchtime. They had spent every minute, every hour, every day together after the competition. His disappearance left a large gaping hole in her heart, oddly enough.Looking around the places he’d likely be at, she suddenly found herself in the garden where she and Ivan first met when they were but innocent children who knew nothing of the intricacies of the world.She stepped foot inside the garden and saw his graceful figure resting on the grass and sleeping peacefully. He developed a habit of scaring off his caretakers when they got near while pretending to sleep as a small child. The habit seemed to have continued on to his adult life.Alicia approached Ivan with precise wariness and sat next to his sleeping figure, wondering whether to let him be or wake him up. But a hand suddenly stretched out and grabbed her.“Ah!”The small shawl wrapped around her shoulder fell to the ground as her small body

“…Alicia, I won’t let you…”Ivan’s growling voice soon turned to one of deep moaning, the pitch of his voice a little higher than normal. It was a strange feeling. The more he satisfied his own desire, the more his affection toward her grew deeper, so much so that he could never possibly measure the depth of his love for her.When their lips finally parted, his expression looked similar to that of a defeated man.“…Come back as soon as you can. I don’t like being alone…” he mumbled while out of breath.“You make it sound like I’ll be gone for several days. I’ll only be gone for a day,” Rihnannan laughed, her voice a melodic rapture.“And that’s precisely why I’m letting you go. If you don’t return the night after, I’ll create a big fuss and commotion… more than when you visited my mother,” Ivan said playfully.“…I-I understand,” Alicia stuttered.Seeing her stutter in reply, Ivan smirked. Alicia tried to escape his arms of embrace, wiggling a few times, but it was to no avail. After a

The figure’s red flaming hair swayed beautifully under the moonlit night. Her beauty was overwhelming, enough to make one think that she was a goddess, that she belonged to the heavens. Her smooth luscious skin put the beauty of the red flower to shame. No mortal could compare to her splendor. It was as if everything around her dimmed a little to make way for her presence.The red-haired beauty stood in front of Alicia with a deep smile.“It’s been a while, Alicia,” said the beauty.Patricia… her younger sister had appeared in front of her again after six years.Alicia looked at the curvaceous figure who stood close to her. She was as beautiful as ever—red luscious hair and big eyes… rose-tinted cheeks and features that reminded one of a blooming flower. She looked no different from the girl Alicia knew in her past life.Alicia stared back, eyes in disbelief.Patricia lowered her gaze and bowed deeply.“I apologize,” she said humbly, “I forgot. You said never to call you by your name.

Alicia was silent, but it only lasted a moment’s breath.“Your name wasn’t on the guest list.”A cunning smile remained on Patricia’s lips. “One of the noblewomen I know personally was in great pain and unable to participate in the competition so I came in her stead. It’s why you didn’t see me on the list.”Alicia wanted to know, wanted to ask why she needed to go so far as to attend a mere Kiritte Competition, but she did not. Her lips had trouble moving. It was the same then and it was the same now—Alicia couldn’t understand Patricia’s unconditional hatred towards her.…Was it fate?“I was curious. I wanted to see how Her Majesty’s doing these days, to see how well you’re living life after you cast me and father aside. And…”The corner of her lips lifted to a devilish grin.“…More than anything, I wanted to see His Majesty up close. Though I saw him once before, he was far away in my area to see clearly. And just as the rumors speculate, His Majesty is quite the handsome man. His ch
