Zephyr glared at Zuko, attempting to grab his chubby leg and toss him aside.
However, Cordelia quickly carried their son before he could do it.
He sighed. So there was a third wheel between them, after all…
“Hey, are you going to be petty with your son?” She smiled at him while carrying the baby. “Have you translated the
documents for Uncle Bond?”
“Mm-hmm, all done.”
“Then let’s…”
He smirked. “We can go to Southeast Aciatic to reveal the truth now!”
…
Aurelia ran in panic from the west palace.
“Help! Help!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHer cry echoed in the big palace. However, there were many guards in the west palace. She was stopped when she
arrived at the door.
“Please let me out!” She was teary. ‘Please get doctors to save Princess Lene! She’s… dying!”
The guards looked at each other. Though doubtful, they dared not delay as someone in the royalty was involved.
They quickly reported to Queen Carmella.
Soon, the queen appeared outside the west palace, with Victoria following behind her.
Aurelia was waiting at the door. She did not even have time to bow and ran to Carmella as if there was a disaster.
“Your Majesty, please save Princess Lene! She…”
“How is she exactly? Tell me everything!”
At that moment, Alexander came out from the palace. Victoria was surprised to see him.
“Alexander, w-why are you here?”
“Aunt Helene is sick. Of course, I’m here to visit her,” he said calmly with the majesty of a king.
Victoria glanced at Carmella and then asked him, “How’s Aunt Helene?”
“She’s stable now.” He walked to the queen and bowed. “Don’t worry, Auntie. I got the doctors to come as soon as I
heard the news. Her life’s no longer at risk. But she’s too weak now and can’t see anyone.”
Carmella’s serious face was slightly relieved now.
That was great. She was not planning to visit Helene anyway.
She cared more about another thing.
“How did she suddenly get so sick?” Carmella looked cold as she looked at Aurelia with her sharp eyes. “Is it due to
your mishandling?”
“I…” Aurelia buried herself in terror. She was shaking and dared not move at all.
“Auntie, it has nothing to do with her.” Alexander stood out. “She suddenly lost consciousness due to the medicine
she had been consuming.”
Victoria instinctively looked at Carmella when she heard that and then looked down.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“The doctors have given her emergency treatment. She’s okay now.” Alexander clearly stated, “Also, they
concluded that she had too much cinnabar intake before she lost consciousness. A small dosage helps her illness
indeed, but overdosing would be no different from consuming arsenic!”
Victoria was stunned but quickly went with it. “Auntie, I remember Mr. Irwin used to frequent this place!”
“Oh, really?” Alexander pretended to be surprised. “I told him to treat Aunt Helene. I didn’t expect him to really
take it seriously!
“But…” He then frowned. “Don’t you think it’s strange, Auntie? She had been fine before Mr. Irwin came. As soon as
he came…”
“Rowan must have something to do with this!” Carmella raised her voice. “Cinnabar is holistic medicine. He’s the
only one who is a master in that area in the entire Southeast Aciatic!”
“Auntie!” Alexander was shocked. “So, Mr. Irwin came prepared. He wanted to harm my aunt!”
Carmella glanced at him. There was a subtle smirk on her lips.
She knew that family was important to him. As soon as they made Helene a victim, he would not be on the same
side as the Irwins!
By then, she could get rid of Helene and make the Irwins criminals at the same time.
