The instant she saw the look on his face, she felt as if she was stabbed in her heart.
“Kurt...” she murmured.
Just as she spoke, she was taken back when the attendant beside Kurt began screaming.
“What are you doing here? After pestering me to see Prince Kurt the other day, how dare you come up
here now? Somebody, come at once!” Lucy shouted.
Throughout Lucy's rant, Vivian did not hear her at all, as her focus was solely on the man.
While coming up from behind, Kristoff saw everything. Subsequently, he admonished Lucy, “What are
you shouting for? Do you know that she's a Jadeson? Do you have a death wish?”
Even though he was already eighty, Kristoff still exuded an authoritative aura.
As her face turned pale, Lucy did not dare utter another word.
Then, Vivian approached Kurt step by step.
With his exquisite features, he looked as dashing as ever. The cold look in his eyes was further
accentuated by the royal garb he was wearing. Just like a bewitching painting, it could cause the hearts
of whoever was looking to skip a beat.
Unfortunately, there was no sign of the familiar warmth within his mesmerizing eyes.
The same warmth that she had spent a lot of effort nurturing in him.
Sitting in his chair, he had evolved into the distinguished prince of Elysium. As he stared coldly at her,
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇthe emanated a hostile and exasperated vibe.
Sensing his resentment, Vivian felt tears welling up in her eyes.
“Kurt, do you still remember me? It's me, Vivi,” Vivian sobbed as she removed her face scarf.
However, Kurt did not react in any way.
In fact, the irritation he felt intensified when he saw her remove her scarf.
“Lucy, get them out of here,” he ordered.
“Yes, Prince Kurt,” Lucy acknowledged at once.
Thus, she came over to chase them away.
In response, Vivian lost control of herself as she rushed forward and grabbed Kurt by the arm. Choking
back her tears, she questioned, “I'm Vivi. Why don't you remember, Kurt? I'm Vivi!”
“Insolence! How dare you touch the prince at will?”
Upon seeing Vivian grabbing Kurt impudently, Lucy dashed forward and pried her arms away.
Thud!
Vivian was thrown aside by the brief scuffle.
The moment she crashed onto the balcony's railing, she felt a pain so excruciating that she could
barely speak.
“Girl!”
Taken aback by the situation, Kristoff ran over to help Vivian up.
In response, Lucy remarked in a haughty manner, “I didn't push her on purpose. She's the one who lost
her balance.”
After a brief pause, Lucy added, “Enough of this. Since she has fallen down, I won't tell the king about
this. Sire, you had better take her away, and I'll pretend that this never happened.”
Right after that, she warned them off again and insisted they leave the palace at once.
When Kristoff heard her words, he turned around and glared at her.
“You had better pray that she's fine. Or else, when the Jadesons come for you, it's not going to matter if
you're popular at court or a candidate for the prince's wife. There will be no escape for you!” Kristoff
warned her at the end of it.
After that, he picked Vivian up and left.
Even though Vivian was still conscious, the pain she physically felt and the mental anguish she was
going through caused her to remain silent.
With a sorrowful expression on her face, she was helped out by Kristoff.
After they left, Agarwood Pavilion fell silent again. As if nothing happened, Lucy cleared the mess on
the floor before returning to Kurt's side to help him with his painting.
At that moment, Kurt, who barely said a thing throughout, suddenly ordered, “Somebody, come here!”
Instantly, a royal guard appeared, giving Lucy a shock.
“Yes, Prince Kurt?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Take her away and give her fifty lashes.” Kurt's tone was so casual that Lucy thought he was telling
her to assist him with his painting.
Unfortunately, that was not what he said. Instead, he was punishing her by ordering her to be lashed
fifty times.
Fifty? For a female attendant like me?
She was utterly stunned by his words. Before she could wipe the smirk off her face, she was frozen on
her feet.
“Prince Kurt, no... no...”
With no chance to even ask about the reason, she had already been dragged away. After a short while,
the sound of a cracking whip echoed through Agarwood Pavilion.
It was followed by the Lucy's agonizing cries.
Evidently, the royal family had the authority to punish anyone without reason.
Meanwhile, Vivian fell sick on the same day she returned.
Given that she had lived the life of a pampered princess, she rarely had it tough. Hence, after being
beaten both physically and emotionally, she suffered a high fever that night.
The moment Matteo found out, he was outraged.
As a result, he stormed into the royal palace.
Firstly, he wanted to hold Lucy accountable for her actions. Secondly, he was furious at Kurt's behavior.
He wanted to see for himself if the boy his family had rescued and trained for five years had truly lost
his memory.
After all, he could not tolerate seeing the sister he doted on being bullied.q
