Chapter 0267
Was it because she knew I'd choose the sublime? | don’t know...
Setting my phone on record, | slip it back into my pocket, making sure not to cover the speakers.
| enter the gates of the King’s mansion; the guards allowingthrough, and | walk
to the front door. | ring the bell, feeling my stomach twist once again.
Agatha... it’s hard to believe.
| brush my dripping hair back as the door is opened. “Alpha Zaia, welchome.”
The butler says, lowering his head to me.
Thank you. Is anyone home?” | ask, smiling gracefully.
“Yes ma'am, Madam is home.”
I see.
“Excellent. I'll go wait for her. | better grab a towel first, though.”
He smiles. “Of course, allowto-"
“Oh no, I'll be fine. I'll grab one.” | reassure him before | walk down the hallway as if heading to the laundry
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtroom, but the moment I'm out of sight, | scan the hall, trying to pick up Agatha’s location.
| can’t hear anyone downstairs... | glance towards the stairs and swiftly make my way upstairs. She always
retreated to her room when she had free time.
The carpet beneath my feet completely silences my footsteps.
Despite Ethan's silent confirmation, I'm still in denial. Trying to wrap my head. around the fact that Agatha is
indeed a part of this, despite having enough pointing
at her for it to make sense.
| walk down the hall and knock on the closed door of her and Aran’s bedroom. Not waiting for an answer, | open
it and step inside.

Agatha looks startled as she stands at the door of her little lounge, shutting the door behind herself a little too
quickly. That was the place that she retreated to for sreading and relaxing time.
“Zaia! You startled me! How are you? Oh my, you are soaking wet. Sit down, I'll fetch you a towel!” But the way
she had been standing there was as if she was expecting
1. me.
| force a smile on my face. “Thank you,” | say quietly, the words makingsick.
Her eyes widen before they glisten with tears.
“Csit dear,” she says as she walks over totouching my cheek when | don’t move. Our eyes meet and
once again, it feels like it can’t be true.
Did you really poison your own grandchild?
My heart aches at just the thought of that. How can one be so cruel?
She guidesto the bed, and I sit down. “Are you alright, dear?”
“I'm tired. | just wanted to csee you.” | say softly, masking my inner turmoil.
“Oh, child... wait here. Ill go get you a towel before you catch a cold and then we can. talk all about it over some
hot drinks.” 2
She's about to go to her bathroom before she slaps her forehead. “I'll be right back. | had them clean the entire
place and they took the towels. Besides, I'll tell them to get stea...” she explains as she leaves the room.
The moment she does, my eyes harden, and | stand up, wondering if she’s clicked. She might know or she might
not... but do | put her under the alpha command?
| glance towards the bedroom door that stands ajar and swiftly cross the room and try to open the door to her
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmlounge, only for it to not budge.
Automatic lock? Must be since she didn’t lock it with a key.
It's one room | have never seen, as it was her haven. A place even Aran wasn’t allowed, and that makeseven
more curious about it.
Hearing her footsteps, | quickly walk back to the bed and sit down.

“Here we are!” she says as she comes over holding a towel. | take it from her before she can try to help me, not
trusting her in case she’s put something on it.
“Thank you,” | say, placing the towel down on the bed. Seeing her glance towards her lounge door | stand up.
She looks surprised as she glances at the towel. “Are you alright, Zaia? You will
catch a cold!”
“A cold is nothing compared to everything I've been put through,” | say quietly, my eyes hardening as I look at
her: “Tell me, how long have you been plotting against
me?”
