Neil saw Victoria walking toward them from afar and furrowed his brow. He put an arm around Aurelia and took her

to the side.

The others understood it when they saw Neil’s reaction. Although they did not want to offend the princess, the

Harrises were no pushovers either. Hence, they bowed in courtesy and sought excuses to walk away.

Victoria could not believe it. Everyone just ignored her!

“Victoria.” Alexander’s voice came from behind her.

She turned around and saw her brother’s small smirk.

“I’ve told you not to regard the royal status so highly.” He spoke softly. “People are no fools. They know what’s

significant and not!”

“What?” Victoria sneered. “I can’t join in the fun now too? This is the palace. It’s my home. Do you think it’s right

that you host a party here without the owner’s permission!?”

“You’re going too far, Victoria. Since when is the palace your home? This is our uncle’s home. We are only being

allowed to stay here!”

“You…”

“And I’ve told our uncle about this party.”

“Alexander!” Victoria was pale. “You just want to go against me! You’d rather take the side of an outsider than your

own sister!”

“I just don’t want you to humiliate yourself here, Victoria.” Alexander’s face dropped. “You talk about the royal

family’s pride all day long. Don’t do something that’ll damage the royal family’s reputation!”

He gave her a cold look and left after speaking.

Victoria clenched her fists, stabbing her nails deep into her palms, as a wash of viciousness flashed across her

enraged face.

Coincidentally, a servant was hurrying over with a pot of lit coal.

Victoria thought quickly and discreetly extended her leg. The servant was in a hurry and did not watch the way, so

he was tripped!

“Ah!”

As he lost his balance, the pot of burning coal in the servant’s hands flew off his grip. Pieces of burning coal rained

toward Aurelia like meteorites from the sky!

Everyone was shocked by the suddenness of the incident. Some fled frantically, while others crouched on the

ground hugging their heads.

The coals rained, crackling with sparks, and screams resounded in the garden.

Just when the coals were going to land on Aurelia’s head, she blanked, and her body stiffened. She did not know

where to hide.

During that critical juncture, a pair of strong arms suddenly wrapped around her. As she fell into the warm and

familiar embrace, those arms separated her from the coals.

She seemed to feel the burning pieces brush past the tip of her ears and could smell something being burnt, but

she was not hurt. When she managed to react, what greeted her was Neil’s pale face and the sweat dotting the tip

of his nose.

“Uncle!” she cried.

Neil had gotten hurt—both hands had been burned badly.

Alexander, who was nearby, ran over upon hearing the voice. When he brushed past Victoria, he saw her terrified

look. He glared at her.

Victoria stumbled back and ran away amidst the chaos. Alexander did not have the time to go after her as he asked

for doctors and for the coals on the lawn to be cleaned to prevent a fire.

“Neil, are you okay?” Cordelia and Zephyr rushed over as well, hearing Aurelia’s cry. “Bring some ice!”

There was then a fumbled search for ice.

Neil’s hands had lost the outer layer of skin, and they could not be simply iced. Fortunately, the doctor arrived soon,

and Neil was sent to the hospital after the doctor treated him with professional medicine as emergency care.

…

Victoria ran back to her palace in a panic and ordered all the doors to be closed and locked once she got inside.

She did not want to see anyone for the time being.

Her maid poured her a glass of cold water, but she still felt her throat constrict and the cold sweat after drinking it.

“Your Highness, what happened?”

Victoria took a deep breath and bit her lips, the corners of her lips twitching.

The scene just now made her both furious and scared. She was scared that she had hurt Neil and could not

appease the Harrises, and she was furious that the pot of coals was aimed at Aurelia, yet Neil had shielded that

b*tch!

Victoria balled up her fist and punched the window sill.
