RHEA'S POV “You look beautiful,” Estefan said as I stood in front of the mirror in a black short off-shoulder flare dress.He was standing next to me in a white Dior shirt and black pants paired with a black jean jacket.“The dress is tighter than when I got it.” I turned from side to side, checking to see if my stomach was bulging out in the dress.He wrapped his hands around me from behind. “It's just an effect of the pregnancy, you'll get back in shape after the baby is revealed.” He placed a kiss on my exposed shoulder. “Besides, I think you are more beautiful with your chubby cheeks.” I stepped away from his hold and turned to him with a glare. “Are you saying I was ugly when I was skinny?” “What?” His eyes widened in horror. “That's not what I meant.” “Then what do you mean?” I folded my arms.“You know what? Forget I said anything.” He picked up his phone from the bed. “You'll only end up twisting all my words.”I rolled my eyes and turned back to take one last look at my

ESTEFAN'S POVI stepped into a diner close to the Knight Tech building and I spotted Asher sitting on a table for four alone near a window. I took my seat in front of him and he raised his head from his phone to look at me.“Your Highness.” He bowed. “I didn't expect you to be here early. “ “I'm a punctual person and I don't like people wasting my time,” I replied as I checked the time to see that it was two minutes past the appointed time.“Where is he?” I asked. “Have you spoken to him?” “Yes, he's going to be here soon,” he answered. “He called saying he had to report to work and finalize his impromptu off day.”“I thought Mr Knight said he would be taking care of that.” “He did send a message to his department head but they still have to make sure that his absence doesn't affect their work in any way.” I nodded in understanding before folding my hands and waiting for Cameron to show up.“I'm a bit curious,” he started. “Does my aunt maybe have anything to do with the Queen of S

ESTEFAN'S POV Back in Spain, the car drove into our house and the palace guard opened the door for Rhea to step out. “I have to get to the palace, I'll be back soon.” I kissed her forehead.“Okay.” She nodded before stepping out. She waved as the car drove out of the compound.The palace gate was still full of reporters and the palace guards who were preventing them from going in. The guards opened the gate and shielded my car from the reporters till the driver drove through the palace gate.I stepped out of the car and made my way to the fourth floor. Without knocking, I pushed Esteban's room door open to find him playing video games. “Get dressed, we are going out,” I ordered before turning to leave.“I'm not in the mood to go anywhere,” he replied, stopping in my tracks.Turning him with raised eyebrows, I asked, “Did I ask you what you are in the mood for? Get dressed and meet me in the living room.” I walked out of the room before stopping in the hallway when I remembered some

ESTEFAN'S POV “You have a phone call,” Rhea brought my phone to me in the bathroom. She answered it and put it on speaker since I couldn't answer it in the shower. “Good morning, Your Highness, its Doctor Enzo,” the caller said. “The DNA results are ready, you can come pick them up.” “Thank you, doctor,” I replied and he hung up. Rhea left the bathroom and I finished up before joining her in the room. She sat on the bed, typing away on her laptop while I got dressed.“I have an appointment with my obstetrician today, do you think you can come along?” She asked as she closed the laptop. “What time?” I stood in front of the mirror and buttoned my shirt. “11:30, can you make it?” She stood up to help me with my tie that I still haven't gotten the hang of. “I'm not sure, but I'll try.” I wrapped my hands around her.I had to get the test results and explain everything to my father before the meeting which I was informed was scheduled for 2pm.“If anything comes up and I can't make

ESTEFAN'S POV “Thanks for your help.” I walked toward the elevator with my bodyguards behind me. I took one of the regular elevators to the second floor. As if luck was on my side, the elevator stopped to reveal the kitchen maid holding two suitcases with her mother behind her. Her eyes widened upon seeing me, and she turned to make a run for it, but she stopped in her tracks when her eyes landed on her mother. I smirked, knowing she couldn't leave her mother behind to save herself. “Help them get in,” I ordered my bodyguards, and they stepped out of the elevator to usher them in. Gabriela shook in fear as she and her mother stood behind me in the elevator. The door closed, and I held the elevator before turning to her. “What's going on? Why isn't the elevator moving?” Her mother raised an alarm, looking at me and my bodyguards in fear. Gabriela kept her head down in fear, tugging on her mother's skirt. “What is it? Why are you quiet?” She turned to her daughter, e

ESTEFAN'S POV I drove like a maniac to the palace and rushed into the living room where everyone was sitting. “Where is she?” I asked, breathing heavily. My father stood up with a dejected look on his face. “Prince Eugenio has her, and he won't release her unless I announce him to the Crown Prince.” My heart dropped at the mention of Prince Eugenio's name, and my shoulders slumped in defeat. After everything I did to save my family’s legacy, everything was going to go down the drain because I couldn't protect Rhea. If only I had chosen to let that maid go and follow Rhea to the hospital. I pulled on my hair before I picked up a vase beside me and smashed it against the wall. “Fuck!” I yelled. “Estefan, calm down.” Esteban rushed to hold me. “How can I calm down? I don't know what that bastard is doing to her. She must be scared all by herself.” I cried as I spoke. “I should have gone with her to the hospital. This is all my fault.” Esteban wrapped his hands aroun

ESTEFAN'S POV“Go back there and check for the CCTV camera,” I ordered the bodyguards. “We need to find the people who left her there.” My bodyguards reported that they found Rhea lying in an alley. If I could get footage of the person who left her there and get him arrested, we might be able to get him to mention Prince Eugenio's name and add it to the list of his crimes. “Yes, Your Highness.” They bowed and left the room.Esmeralda walked into the hospital room with Mrs Dutchman who was holding a basket of food. I made her go back to the palace last night, even though she insisted on staying. I should have expected that she would be early the next morning. “Your Highness, I brought you some food.” Mrs Dutchman placed the basket on a small table and dragged me to sit on the chair in front of it. “I'm very sure you didn't get anything last night. Her Highness would get mad at you if she found out you have been starving yourself.” She was right. I didn't get anything to eat the wh

My heart stopped when I saw the blood all over his white shirt. “Mom, where is Esteban?” Esmeralda ran toward Mom who was following Dad's stretcher with tears rolling down her cheeks.Before she could reply, Esteban's stretcher was rolled in by the medics. He was still conscious and groaning in pain. “Esteban, hang in there. You're going to be fine.” I followed the nurses as they pushed him toward the emergency room.“Please, make sure Dad is okay.” He groaned in pain as he spoke.“Dad will be fine, just worry about yourself.” I stopped as they went into the emergency room.Mom broke down in Esmeralda's arm and they sank to the ground while I watched them, trying so hard to control my tears. We sat outside the waiting room, watching nurses going in and out. “Where is Estevan?” Princess Antonella shouted and she ran towa
