Aurelia nodded. She had been prepared a long time ago.
“I was the one who called everyone’s attention to the matter.” She chuckled. “So, Queen Carmella wants me to
testify in court and accuse Mr. Irwin of being the culprit who harmed Princess Lene.”
“That’s exactly right.” Alexander nodded.
“But I won’t let her get her wish.”
“All that matters is that you know what to say in court.” Alexander paused and said with a smile, “The trial process
is complicated, so you should be mentally prepared. And on that day… there may be something unexpected
happening.”
“Unexpected?” Aurelia blinked her big eyes, not quite understanding the meaning of it.
Alexander did not explain further, but there was a hint of sympathy in his eyes when he looked at the girl before
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇthim. She should have grown up with him, and he felt she should have been an endearing and good… little sister.
Aurelia asked again, “Your Highness, will there be anything else happening?”
Alexander looked at Neil beside him, who had been unusually quiet today. Neither of them knew how to broach the
subject with Aurelia.
Rowan had long suspected Aurelia’s bloodline, and after confirming this suspicion, he hoped to reveal it publicly
through some sort of opportunity so that neither Carmella nor Victoria could manipulate it.
Now, the best opportunity was the trial…
“Oh, nothing.” Alexander nudged Neil with his elbow. “Say something! You insisted on coming tonight.”
Neil looked up. When he met Aurelia’s eyes, he felt extremely complicated with flashes of their past moments in his
mind—meeting in the slums of Melorian, the misunderstanding in the hospital, living together in the hotel, sitting in
the same float on stage…
He had kept her in his arms like a lost, stray cat in the open sea and took her on his private jet.
It was just that she was not an ordinary stray cat. She was a pure-blooded aristocrat…
Neil’s heart began to beat faster as he thought of all these. He now understood how self-conscious Aurelia must
have felt in front of him before.
“Uncle?” Aurelia called out to him a few times. “What’s wrong with you?”
Neil’s throat tightened. He licked his lips and forced a smile.
Alexander shot him a disdainful look. “Speak fast! There are eyes and ears everywhere in the palace. I brought you
in with the excuse of visiting my aunt. The guards are watching! It’ll be suspicious if we take too long.”
“I know!” Neil shot an equally disdainful look back at him.
He then looked toward Aurelia and hesitated momentarily before finally asking, stammering, “Well…”
Aurelia had been looking at him the whole time, and she was getting impatient. “What is it, uncle?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Uh, where’s the ring you bought?” he asked.
“Huh?”
“Didn’t you wear it on my finger when I got drunk last time?”
Aurelia was still puzzled, and even Alexander standing on the side looked perplexed. He looked at Aurelia, then Neil,
and asked in surprise, “You two have rings?”
“That’s none of your business!” Neil pushed him away.
Alexander pouted and walked to the other side of the garden, not wanting to be a third wheel.
Aurelia took a deep breath but heard Neil’s urgent voice. “The ring, the ring!”
Aurelia was at a loss for words.
“Take it out!”
“What do you need the ring for?” Aurelia furrowed her brow.
“Just… give it to me,” Neil replied.
Normally, he would have followed that up with ‘brat’, but he did not dare to today. According to the royal protocol,
he should respectfully offer a formal bow to this little princess.
