"Then, let's go back to the imperial capital after you have tea with her."
"Okay."
In the South Kingdom's palace, Catherine finally gave the antidote to Lance. Then, she stood aside silently. Meanwhile, Diana
sat by the bed and helped Lance sit up. "Father, how do you feel?"
"Much better," Lance lovingly said. He then turned to Catherine who was standing beside him without making any noise. He then
gestured for her to come forward.
But Catherine remained standing where she was and looked at Lance and Diana with a complicated expression on her face. She
didn't understand why Lance preferred Diana when she had always been the troublemaker between the two of them. However,
at that moment, she seemed to understand that Diana was very kind with lots of qualities that she didn't have. Even though
Diana almost died in her hands, she could still wholeheartedly smile and act just like a small child in front of their parents as if
nothing had happened.
"Catherine, your father is calling you." The soft urging of Celia, the queen of the South Kingdom took Catherine out of her
thoughts and back to reality. She briefly looked at Diana before looking at Lance, then stepped forward.
"I know what you want to say, but I'm not going to admit that I'm wrong. Moreover, I'm not going to back down on my beliefs,"
Catherine stated stubbornly.
Diana raised her eyebrows and said, "Catherine, Father said that the position of Holy Maiden would be abolished. From now on,
the Holy Maiden doesn't exist in the South Kingdom. You will be the princess of the kingdom just like me."

With wide eyes, Catherine looked at Lance in disbelief. She thought, 'Why? Why did he forgive me? I did a lot of unforgivable
things. Why should he even forgive me?' With a smirk, Diana continued, "By the way, there is one more thing that I haven't told
you. You know what? I'm really honored to have Harper as my master. So when she leaves the South Kingdom, I'm going to
leave with her." "What are you saying?" Lance reached out to gently grab Catherine's hand. He then reached for Diana's hand

and placed it on top of Catherine's. "Catherine, Diana, never forget that we are family and the two of you are sisters. Family and
blood are above anything in this world. From now on, you should help and support each other."
Catherine felt like she was dreaming. The things happening in front of her felt surreal. "Aren't you going to punish me for what I
did?" Diana removed her hand from Lance's grasp then flicked Catherine on the forehead. "Everyone makes mistakes. I've also
made quite a few of them, haven't I?" Catherine could not believe how kind and generous Diana was being. What she did was
not a small mistake. She was vicious and she did something inexcusable to Diana and Lance. Every single crime that she had
committed was grave enough for her to be sent into the Labyrinth Swamp and fed to the Holy Beast as a punishment. But to her
surprise, they simply forgave her.
With that realization, Catherine couldn't help but burst into tears. "I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I was mad. I shouldn't have hurt my family
for a man who doesn't remember me at all. Just punish me. Strike me or scold me, anything to punish me for the things that I did
to you."
"You know, we just use men for warming up our bed. If you want, I can tie several men up and send them to your room," Diana
playfully said while putting her arms around Catherine's neck.
"Diana! Watch your words!" Catherine, Lance, and Celia scolded at the same time.
Diana mischievously stuck out her tongue. "But I'm just telling the truth. Men like Matthew are too awful. Except for Harper who's

out of this world, no one dares to stay by his side. That man has the worst temper. If a woman doesn't have the ability to calm
him down, she's going to be killed by him sooner rather than later." Catherine had to admit that what Diana said was true.
Nothing and no one were important for Matthew except for Harper. It only proved that she had a lot of merits. Besides, the last
time she met Matthew, she found out that he didn't even remember her at all. In fact, he wasn't even paying attention to her. "I... I
have decided not to chase him anymore," Catherine stated while tears trickled down her cheeks. It was hard for her to give
up on pursuing the man that she had been in love with for ten years. But no matter how hard it was, she was going to learn how
to let it go. .

"It's good that you're willing to open your eyes and see the truth. I only hope that you and your sister will live happily forever,"
Celia said with a smile.
"Mother, I..."
"You need to stop thinking too much about what happened in the past. Let bygones be bygones. The two of you must cherish
each other from now on. After all, after your father and I are gone, the fate of the South Kingdom will in your hands."
"Mother, where are you going with Father?" Catherine asked with confusion.
Celia smiled softly and said, "There is one more thing that I have to do. After that, I'm going to live in seclusion with your father.
We'll leave everything to you and Diana."
"Don't worry. Diana will handle everything well. I will support her in the days to come." Taking a deep breath, Catherine had
decided that she was going to atone for her sins for the rest of her life.
Diana only shrugged her shoulders, as if it wasn't a big deal to her at all. She had never wanted the throne of the South
Kingdom. She didn't want it before and she certainly didn't want it then. What she wanted now was to stay with Harper, her
master and learn more things from her. She had actually decided that she was going to escape from the huge burden of ruling
the South Kingdom.
"Diana, please invite Princess Harper to the palace tomorrow. We have something to deal with and it would be better if we can
resolve it as soon as possible." Celia was overcome with excitement when she thought of Harper's face. Soon enough, the day
finally came.
