Semua Bab Substitute Queen's Revenge: Bab 91 - Bab 100

At Faith Palace, it was already a quarter past midnight, and yet George still remained alone in the hall. His patience was gradually wearing thin.When he finally saw someone approaching, his tightly furrowed brows eased slightly."Did someone follow you again?" he asked deliberately.Last time she was fifteen minutes late because Luigi from Cloud Palace had been tailing her; she had dealt with that situation, which was understandable. But what about tonight?Jane took out a set of silver needles and spread them out on the table."I was delayed by something," she offered dismissively. Then she got straight to the point. "Please disrobe."George's expression remained cold and sharp as he stared directly at her, his hands unmoving.As Jane turned her back to him to prepare, she glanced back and saw he still looked exactly the same."Why aren't you disrobing?" she asked.George's gaze became even more stern."You've been getting lazier. I've waited for you for forty-five minutes

Teressa's sudden return to the palace sent waves of unease throughout the harem.At Serene Palace, Dina appeared especially tense."Why would she return to the palace so suddenly?"Normally when Teressa returned, she would send notice at least half a month in advance, and a ceremonial escort would welcome her on the day of her arrival. But this time, she had come back in such haste, as if there were urgent matters to attend to.Dina couldn't help but wonder if she had done something wrong that had drawn this old harbinger of doom back.Laurel attempted to console her."Your Majesty, please don't worry. It's said that she intends to meet with the queen upon her return. It should have nothing to do with you."Dina focused her thoughts. "According to her usual habits, she rests for a day after returning to the palace before permitting any juniors to pay their respects. It's rare for her to summon anyone on the same day. "Could it truly be directed at Wendy? But how could Wendy ha

Jane looked at the items prepared for the consummation ceremony and frowned.This was getting more and more absurdWhat about George? How could he agree to such an arrangement?Alice instructed the royal servants."Set the items down and prepare the queen for her bath.""Yes—"Jane cut in with a steady voice, "Lily alone will attend to me."Alice, confident in her authority under Teressa's orders, adopted a patronizing tone toward Jane."Your Majesty, this is your first time receiving the king's favor. You may not understand the rules of the harem."The ceremonial bath before the consummation is far more intricate than an ordinary one! One person could hardly manage it all. Your Majesty, don't keep the king waiting."With a respectful bow, Alice extended an arm in a 'please proceed' gesture.Jane's eyes were cold, her tone low."Lady Teressa sent you here to ensure the consummation between me and the king. If I'm not pleased, we'll see whether this consummation takes place

Helena almost stood up from her seat.It couldn't be! The king couldn't possibly have favored Wendy!Moreover, the blood on that cloth couldn't possibly be Wendy's virgin blood! She had clearly already lost her purity!Helena had a look of disbelief on her face.But Teressa seemed satisfied and soon allowed Helena to leave.Helena left Longevity Palace, her mind distracted.Clara felt the same way. Had the king and queen really consummated their marriage?But wasn't the queen…Clara instinctively looked at her mistress.Helena's eyes were tinged with a hint of red.Something was wrong! This consummation had to be fake!Helena both refused to believe it and desperately wanted to see the king, to ask him about it in person.-Elsewhere, in Serene Palace, Dina was surprised to hear that the king and queen had consummated their marriage."Is this news reliable?"Laurel nodded repeatedly."Your Majesty, it's true. Lady Teressa sent Alice to oversee the entire process, and th

Helena couldn't understand how Wendy could have avoided the body inspection. After much thought, the only explanation she could come up with was that the person in front of her was not Wendy.But this explanation was absurd. If she wasn't Wendy, who was she?Faced with Helena's doubts, Jane didn't try to defend herself. She stared at Helena with a cold, heavy tone."Indeed, I am not Wendy. After being captured by the bandits, I am no longer her."Helena felt a chilling pressure. She wanted to step back, but Wendy grabbed her collar, forcing her to bend down, and the wounds on her body tormented her."You... Let go!" she cried out.Jane held her tightly and slowly stood up. Helena's eyes widened. The shadow cast over her felt like a demon emerging from the depths of the earth.A faint smile appeared on Jane's face…"There is a strange medicine from a foreign land. If it's applied to the skin, after forty-nine days, it can regenerate and make all scars disappear. The skin becomes
